Place every T3rminator. Let none touch.
T-3 Battle is a variant of Star Battle, the logic puzzle played worldwide, with our T3rminator™ standing guard. One T3rminator in every row, every column and every region — and no two may touch, not even at a corner.
- 4×4, 6×6 and 9×9
- Easy, Medium and High
- Exactly one answer, no guessing
- 15, 30 or 45 minutes
A solved 6×6 from the game.
Three rules
The board is split into regions, each outlined by a soft orange glow. Place T3rminators so that:
One in every row and column
Each row holds exactly one T3rminator, and so does each column.
One in every region
Each region — the squares inside one glowing outline — holds exactly one.
Never touching
No two T3rminators touch, not side by side and not at a corner. A long diagonal is fine.
Playing
Tap a square once to mark it × (no T3rminator here), again to place a T3rminator, and again to empty it. Swipe across squares to mark many at once. Show mistakes points out two in a line or two touching.
