I've been enjoying Clevergoat's "Star Battle" game, but I blew through their archive pretty quickly. Does anyone know of a similar game anywhere?

Edit: after going through the suggestions and doing some more poking around, https://queensultimate.com/ seems to be the closest to Clevergoat's version (which includes several UI features that I really like). Thank you everyone for your help!

Killer Sudoku, https://www.scientificamerican.com/game/killer-sudoku/
"Skyscrapers"

Ah, yes this looks similar. The UI is weird though (why use a keyboard?). Also one thing I like about Clevergoat's version is that unlike sudoku you never have to guess; you can always logic out where the stars go without the need to try out different combinations. Going through the different games being recommended, I'm starting to suspect that might be unusual. Thanks for the suggestion!
