Printable Star Battle

Print Star Battle grids for the train, a classroom or a café table: choose 1 or 2 stars, a size and a level, and get a PDF with the answers on the last page. Region borders print as thick lines, so the grids work in black and white.

Printing tips

On paper, mark empty cells with a small dot rather than an X: an X across a thick region border is easy to misread.

Which size to print

The 8x8 and 9x9 1-star grids fit two to a page with room for dots. Print the 10x10 2-star grid one per page: you will dot far more cells than in a 1-star grid, and the thick region borders need to stay clear. There is no colour on the sheet, so a grey-scale printer loses nothing.

Using the answer key

The answer page shows only the stars. To check a half-finished grid, compare one region at a time: a single misplaced star usually shows up as a region with no room left, and the key tells you which of its cells was the right one.
