- Objective
- Separate all linked pieces in this layout: Star-shaped framework of rings and slanted bars. Align each opening with its connection, then clear the remaining branches.

Step-by-step
Open the exposed lower-right branches of the star. Find the actual gap on this piece before turning it. Follow its contact with the neighboring link, rather than assuming the colored outlines form one object. Make a small controlled rotation and check whether the connection has released before selecting another part.
Release the inner green and blue links before reducing the long outer slanted bars. Reassess the structure after each release: a piece that looked trapped at the start may now have only one neighbor. Use the empty area to see the next contact clearly. Follow the branch described here instead of jumping to a similar color elsewhere.
Finish the small left purple-orange group and last angled connector. Watch the final connection as well as the open ends. A nearly empty board can still contain a linked pair, so keep aligning the gap with the remaining contact. Stop repeating a turn that changes nothing and inspect which neighboring piece still holds the chain.
Tips
- Open the exposed lower-right branches of the star.
- Release the inner green and blue links before reducing the long outer slanted bars.
- Finish the small left purple-orange group and last angled connector.
- After every release, check which pieces are still connected; color alone does not determine the move order.
Common mistakes
- Several star points share the center, so clearing one point does not free the whole outline.
- Repeating the same rotation without checking the opening and the remaining contact.
Frequently asked questions
How do I start Rotate Rings level 236: Star-shaped framework of rings and slanted bars?
Open the exposed lower-right branches of the star. Match this branch by its position and shape before moving. If your starting arrangement differs, compare the video with your board rather than forcing the same sequence.
What is the key transition in level 236?
Release the inner green and blue links before reducing the long outer slanted bars. Keep watching the contact points as the structure shrinks. The next release depends on what remains linked, so recheck the gap after a neighboring piece disappears.
What can block the finish in this layout?
Several star points share the center, so clearing one point does not free the whole outline. For the finish: Finish the small left purple-orange group and last angled connector. Move one remaining piece at a time and wait for its release before deciding whether another contact still needs attention.
