Love Two Not Touch? Get thousands more. Love Queens? Try the bigger challenge. Star Battle Go is the first star battle app on iOS, and the only iOS app with genuine original puzzles by KrazyDad, the puzzle maker behind "Two Not Touch" in the New York Times daily puzzle section. Star Battle Go works like Queens, swapping crowns for stars. But with two stars per row, column, and region instead of one, the logic runs deeper and the puzzles get much harder. The rules are simple: • Each row, column, and region must have exactly 2 stars • No two stars can touch, including diagonally If you enjoy sudoku or KenKen, you'll love this challenging game of logic and skill. "My New Puzzle Obsession" – Will Shortz, New York Times (Dec 15, 2019) (Referring to "Two Not Touch," his name for star battle puzzles) Features: • 150 free, original star battle puzzles • 3,000 more puzzles available for purchase • Automatic progress saving • Dark mode! • Helpful in-app tutorial with lots of tips and strategies • Option to place x's around stars automatically • Square coloring tool to mark options or logic branches • Option to show rule-breaking errors in real time • Optional tool to check for current mistakes Feedback welcome (we also offer solving tips!) hello@summitstudio.com Happy solving!

How far can you go? 2Step is a deceptively simple number path puzzle that will challenge your mind and test your patience. Place numbers 1 to 100 on a 10×10 grid — but there's a catch. Every move must follow the rule: jump 3 steps horizontally or vertically, or 2 steps diagonally. No exceptions. Sounds simple. It isn't. Most paths dead-end before you reach 50. The best players find routes that fill the entire board. Can you be one of them? FEATURES • Free to start from any cell — your strategy begins with your first tap • Smart hint system guides you toward the best next move • Undo any mistake and try a different path • Track your best score across every game • Minimal dark design — just you and the grid • No timers. No pressure. Pure logic. 2Step is for puzzle lovers who want a real challenge — not a tutorial, not hand-holding, just a grid and a question: how far can you go?
