7x7 Star Battle Puzzles

The 7x7 star battle has seven regions and seven stars, and its grids no longer open with a single glance. Deductions chain: a region confined to two columns, a star that empties a corner, a row left with a single cell.

Every page shows one 7x7 grid, at Easy, Medium or Hard. Medium grids open when two or three regions are compared together; Hard grids sometimes need a trial star. Each has one solution.

Counting Regions Against Lines

If three regions fit entirely inside three columns, those columns give all their stars to those three regions, and every other cell of the three columns is empty. On a 7x7 grid, looking for such groups is often what opens a Medium grid.

Marking as You Go

Use two marks: a small dot for a cell that cannot hold a star, and a star for a certain one. Mark the eight neighbors of every new star right away; on a 7x7 grid, forgetting one neighbor is the usual source of errors.

After the 6x6 Grids

The 7x7 grids suit solvers who finish the 6x6 grids easily. Start at Easy to get used to seven regions, then move up.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a confined region?

A region whose cells all lie in one row, or one column. Its star must be in that line, so every other cell of the line can be crossed out.

Can a row hold two stars?

Not in this puzzle: every row, column and region holds exactly one star. The two-star version, often called Two Not Touch, uses larger grids.
