All this time setting GAPPs and I haven't done a single object placement genre... well that changes today! It's a simple little ruleset this, but with some cute logic that I hope you'll enjoy :>
Today's puzzle is a Stardust! ✨ 💫
Rules: Place circles into some cells. Circles cannot be placed in cells containing stars. Every star must be contained within the 3x3 area surrounding a circle. Circles’ surrounding 3x3 areas may not overlap one another.
Note: 3x3's don't have to exist entirely within the grid, so long as the circles are within the grid! Also, I advise using colors to help track which cells cannot be circles, but you can go about it however is most intuitive to you
