One way to understand the rules
A placed star rules out all eight neighbouring squares. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Consider the next action carefully.
Check this before moving on
Different rows do not make diagonal neighbours legal. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
