Fieldpost
What is Fieldpost?
Fieldpost is a free daily logic puzzle based on the classic Star Battle rules. Each day everyone gets the same grid, and the goal is to place one star in every row, column, and colored region. Each puzzle has a single unique solution.

A fair, elegantly constrained one-star battle that never forces a guess, though a single 8x8 grid hardly stretches a seasoned solver.

Perfect little brain stretch for a commute — one grid, tap three times to place, and you're done before the next stop.
How to play Fieldpost
Tap a cell once to mark an ✕ and twice to place a star; a third tap clears it. You need one star in each row, column, and colored region, and no two stars may touch, even diagonally. On a keyboard, use arrow keys or WASD to move and Space or Enter to place.
Tips & strategy
- Use ✕ marks to track cells that can’t contain a star; this makes hidden constraints easier to see.
- When you place a star, immediately mark all surrounding cells as ✕, since stars can’t touch.
- Look for a row, column, or region that has only one viable cell left and place its star there.
- Focus on smaller regions first; they often reveal which cells are possible for that region’s star.
- Use the free Undo whenever you want to revisit a line of deduction without restarting.
