Best Star Battle apps (2026)

Star Battle — also called Two Not Touch — has a small but loyal following of logic-puzzle apps on the App Store, most of them free with ads. StarGrid is coming to iPhone with 200 puzzles across seven difficulty tiers and a one-time unlock instead of ads. Here's how it compares to the Star Battle apps already out there.

  1. StarGrid — free
  2. Star Battle Puzzles — Free, ads. Best at: a large, classic Star Battle puzzle library with daily deduction challenges. View on the App Store
  3. Star Battle Go - Logic Puzzles — Free, ads. Best at: KrazyDad-authored puzzles, the same set featured in the New York Times. View on the App Store
  4. Star Battle: Grid Logic Puzzle — Free, ads. Best at: a straightforward, relaxing take on the standard Star Battle grid. View on the App Store
  5. Star Battle Hoshi Puzzles — Free, ads. Best at: daily challenges and competitive leaderboards on top of the puzzle. View on the App Store

If you want daily challenges or a leaderboard alongside your Star Battle puzzles, one of the free apps above already has that. StarGrid's 200-puzzle, one-time-unlock approach is aimed at people who'd rather buy once than watch ads between grids — check back here once it's live on the App Store.
