A placed star rules out all eight neighbouring squares. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Notice the change in the playing area.
Watch out for this
Different rows do not make diagonal neighbours legal. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
