About this title

About this title

Starquill teaches the night sky. 25 well-known constellations, from Orion and the Big Dipper to Scorpius and the Southern Cross, are drawn from approximate real star positions with a true sky projection. Three kinds of question: draw a named constellation by linking its stars, name a highlighted figure from four choices, or find a bright star such as Sirius, Vega or Polaris from a short clue. Ten stages of six questions give stars for few mistakes, early stages show landmarks and later ones take them away, and a challenge mode asks questions from the whole sky until three lives are gone. Every answer ends with a short fact. It plays in the browser with a keyboard, mouse or touch.
