Hoshi Saga 2

JayYoshio Ishii has just released a sequel to his enormously popular puzzle game from May, thus creating a new entry in what will hopefully be a continued series of games bearing the Hoshi Saga name. In Hoshi Saga 2, the goal remains the same: find the star in each level. Some you will find by clicking, others by moving the mouse. You will have to approach each one with an open mind if you are to find them all.

There are 36 new levels to discover, and the level numbers pick up right where the first game leaves off. None of them are very difficult, but some may stump you for a bit until you figure out what it is you need to do.

Play the entire Hoshi Saga Series:

Hoshi SagaHoshi Saga 2Hoshi Saga 3Hoshi Saga RingoHoshi Saga RingoameHoshi Saga RingoenHoshi Saga RingohimeHoshi Saga Dokuringo

Analysis: I love games of discovery like this and I know I'm not alone. Hoshi Saga is very reminiscent of Andrew VanHeuklon's Click Drag Type series of puzzles, yet with each puzzle being of a smaller scale and all with a common goal. It is a very simple game to understand, and yet with so many ways to challenge your brain. The art, animation and interaction design is exceptionally creative just like the first one, with only one level in the bunch that will likely frustrate you before you're finished. All things considered, this one is sure to please.

Walkthrough Guide


(Please allow page to fully load for spoiler tags to be functional.)

Complete walkthrough:

The levels are ordered by number from the last game, so we start with 36. This guide is pretty in-depth, save for the surprises that occur when you solve the puzzles.

36.

Click one of the firecrackers before it fizzles out.

37.

Hold down the left mouse button, and let go when the four "legs" are fully stretched out.

38.

Click the two girls so that they are facing the boy, then click the boy.

39.

Mouse over all the men on the sidelines.

40.

Start with your mouse positioned below the dress of the rightmost woman. Sweep the mouse upward very fast. Naughty naughty.

41.

The correct star is slightly up and to the right of the center of the window.

42.

Time to test your reflexes. Catch a photo of the tip of a shooting star in your targeting recticule. (Anywhere within the range of the big box, including the little box.)

43.

Using your mouse, grab the bottom of the rectangle on the far right side of the screen. Hold onto it, then drag it up to flip it upside down and wait for the star to drop out.

44.

Drag the hexagon to the left to reveal a star.

45.

Try to pull the cylinder upwards. Keep pulling.

46.

Grab onto a shape. Pull your mouse along the circle, and keep spinning it in the same direction until you win this round.

47.

Whoo, this is a toughie. When you click, then pull across a glass, it plays a note. Pull in the other direction to play the note again, or let go to use another glass.
Play the entire "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" song without screwing up. If you screw up, the sheet music disappears.

48.

Grab that darker tip thing and put it up against the surface on the left side of the screen.

49.

You know stage 43? Go to it.
One of the boxes drops a bomb when you tip it over.
Go back to stage 49. The same bomb will drop from the stage above it (!!!). Click it to light it up. Then watch.

50.

The star is behind the moon. Pull the stuff blocking your view out of the way fast. Including the moon.

51.

Hold down the mouse button on each screw till the panel falls off.

52.

Grab the spiky ball, then shake it vigorously.

53.

Grab onto the column and pull to the left or right. Keep doing this.

54.

Stack up the pieces to form a star. If you get it wrong, exit and enter the stage again.

55.

Grab the cube and pull it up higher than the top of the game screen, then drop it.

56.

Carefully pull all three sheets as far as you can.

57.

Blast the center, and do all the sides before they fade away.

58.

Grab the ball. Drop it above the bar, in the second dark column.

59.

You ever played Hogan's Alley? Juggle the block in the air by repeatedly shooting it.

60.

Grab the top-middle part of the bar-shaped object. Drag it across to the right side of the screen.

61.

There's a square in the top left corner. Pull it out to reveal a line guide.
Line up the guide so that the intersecting lines are aligned directly with the cross on the odd pointy thing.
In this fashion, line up each point so that each one is facing a different point on a star, if all of them were to be pressed together.
The head should be lined up with the top vertical guide line. This should already be done for you anyway.
The top "arms" of the star should be lined up with the lines that are two lines down from the top vertical guide line line.
The bottom "legs" should be lined up with the two lines pointing down, just next to the bottom vertical guide line.
It will automatically end when you get them all correct.

62.

Check carefully around the lower left middle part of the screen (it's near the center, so don't go TOO far) for an area that shades itself into a black star when you click on the right spots.

63.

Mouse over the circle. Move the mouse clockwise while it's on the circle. Keep the mouse over the circle while you're doing this.

64.

If you click on the circles in a certain order, the lines will eventually form into a star. The circle in the center will reset the lines if you click on it.

65.

If you did the first game, this stage isn't nearly as horrific or difficult as the first. Just type out the phrase, then grab the screen and give it a good yank.

66.

Pull on the white tip on the bottom of the screen SLOWLY. Let go when you can see the whole thing.

67.

Click the man's nose to reveal nose hairs. Mouse over them (EW...) to pull them out, revealing a nose hair star. Ugh.

68.

Wherever you click, those squares will spin in a 3x3 pattern. Align all the pieces to form a star.

69.

Quickly memorize the pattern (or take a screenshot), then click on the parts to match up with the center, and hit the center button to see how you did.

70.

Toughie. Click on the hexagon to grab onto it, then carefully guide it to the end of the maze. YOU MUST NOT TOUCH ANY WALLS. Note that it only rotates when you are touching a "rotation" zone, and you'll want to turn the tip around when you see the first one. At the sharp blocks, wait until both jut out, then scamper by when both pull into the wall at the same time. At the second rotation spot, you carefully have to align your shape to fit through that area without being crushed by the side at the same time. Prepare to be here a while.

71.

Credits. YAY!

Umm... ok. Where is the game? Is it just me, or is there nothing there?

Reply

I think it's just you. The game is loading fine on this end. I've even emptied my cache first and tried loading again, successfully.

Perhaps you need to update your Flash Player?

Reply

I like it so far, but, I gotta say...

Playing "twinkle twinkle" on the wine glasses is a royal pain - it's very unforgiving.

Reply

Yes, I agree Mea. Unforgiving is a good word.

Reply

i've got most of them done already...
Except that twinkle twinkle one...

40
62 and the accompanying unlocked ones

Any help on 40 *the skirts* or 60 *the building?

and maybe the order of the glasses since i'm severely tone deaf

Reply

i feel dumb for asking for help so early but does anyone have levels 49 or 40?

Reply

40:

Try moving the mouse up and down quickly.

RaDiCaLedward_26 September 17, 2007 1:11 AM

The only one I'm stuck on is level 40. Any help?

Reply

I got stuck on 49, 55, and 61, and by consequence could not access 53, 59, 65, 67, 70, or 71. Solutions for the rest follow.

36:

Click on one of the fireworks

37:

Click on the object in the center and hold until its legs extend, then release

38:

Click on the two outer girls, then click on the guy in the center

39:

Move your mouse over each of the people on the edges, causing them to run into the center

40:

Move your mouse up and down (not just over the light part of the screen, the whole thing) rapidly to create a reaction

41:

Anyone enjoy Where's Waldo games? You're looking for the only five-pointed star on the screen.

It's in the top-center

42:

You have to take a picture of a shooting star

43:

Drag the rightmost tag around until it's upside down; a star will fall out

44:

Roll the Pentagon to its Left until it becomes a star

45:

It's a Cork. Use your mouse and drag repeatedly to pull it up

46:

Click and hold down the mouse until the star appears

47:

You have to play "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" on the glasses. To rub a glass, click and drag your mouse along its rim.
The notes are, from left to right, CDEFGABC - but the higher C (on the right) is never used.
The notes are as follows (play them in order): CCGGAAGFFEEDDCGGFFEEDGGFFEEDCCGGAAGFFEEDDC

48:

Drag the dark section to the left towards the mirror until it makes a star with its reflection

49:

Go back to 43 and tip all the boxes to drop all their contents. One of these objects is a bomb. This will drop frm stage 43 INTO stage 49. From there, you can click the bomb to get your solution.

50:

Drag the various pieces of background around until you can pull the moon aside to reveal the star

51:

Click and hold down on the screws to remove them; when they're gone, the star will be revealed

52:

Click and drag the star and shake it to remove all the clutter and reveal the true star

54:

You have to catch the pieces of a star and build one up

56:

Click and drag the lines until a star is revealed

57:

Click the mouse to fire, drag the ship around in a circle and fire towards the center to reveal the lines for the star

58:

Drag and drop the ball into the third column; it'll fall through and reveal the star

60:

Click and drag the part of the stick nearest the edge of the screen and drag it across in an arc to open the fan

62:

Click the five parts of the star to darken them. The top point of the star is directly in the center of the screen, to give you an idea of where to look

63:

The White Ball rolls away from your mouse; use your mouse to push it forward and make it roll up the carpet

64:

You have to click the five stars in the right order so that they make a star pattern when they near the center. The order is largely trial and error

66:

Use the exposed tip to pull the star (slowly) onto the screen

68:

Clicking on a block will rotate it and all the blocks it touches. Rotate the blocks to reveal the star. Tip: Work from the outside in

69:

Do as it says - memorize the pattern, then set the edges to properly connect

Yeah, 49 and 60 are giving me fits. 49 is opaque to me, and 61 seems like there's an obvious thing to do, only nothing happens...

...when I try to align the darts via the frame to be the points of a star, projected or superimposed or some such.

Reply

49:

Just click the bomb when it's in front of the box to blow it up and reveal the star.

Reply

anddddd how does this bomb appear?

Reply

Oh, got 61. Silly me. It's 50 that is my bane at the moment.

Reply

There is either no review, or it is implied that you know what this is the sequel too.

This game sure knows how to combine absurdly easy with absurdly difficult.

Reply

Oh ho ho, the answer to 49 is REALLY

Go back to 43 and tip all the boxes to drop all their contents.
One of these objects is a bomb. This will drop frm stage 43 INTO stage 49.
From there, you can click the bomb to get your solution.

I love these little quirks.

weirdguy - it takes a bit for the tag pages to update (they update via cron job). That page will be filled in soon. In the meantime, here's a link to the first Hoshi Saga review...

Complete walkthrough:

36

Click dots until one explodes into a star firework

37

Click and hold to "jump" and see the whole star

38

Click the boy in the center until he falls through the ground in a star shape

39

Mouse over all the people on the sides

40

Drag the mouse up and down fast over the rightmost woman

41

Click the star, near the middle of the top

42

Click when a shooting star is passing through the frame

43

Drag-spin the panels until a star falls out of one of them

44

Drag-roll the pentagon until triangles fall off and it becomes a star

45

Click and drag the cork "up" to release stars

46

Drag the lines rightwards until they start spinning and form stars

47

Click and drag along the edges of the wineglasses in this order: 1 1 5 5 6 6 5 4 4 3 3 2 2 1 5 5 4 4 3 3 2 5 5 4 4 3 3 2 1 1 5 5 6 6 5 4 4 3 3 2 2 1

48

Drag the half-star out of the water and up to the mirror

49

Go back to 43 and tip all the boxes to drop all their contents. One of these objects is a bomb. This will drop from stage 43 INTO stage 49. Now you can click the bomb and let it explode in front of the box to expose a star

50

Drag the moon out of its position to reveal a star

51

Click on screws repeatedly to unscrew them and reveal the star

52

Click and "shake" the pointy thing vigorously until the spines fall off of the star

53

Click the shaded part and drag left repeatedly until the star is visible

54

Move the mouse under falling bits of stars in the right order to make them complete

55

Drag the box "up" until it falls hard enough to reveal stars

56

Drag the three lines until the entire star is revealed

57

Click from all sides to fire bullets that light up star edges

58

Drop the ball into the third column to reveal a star

59

Shoot the object repeatedly and it will become a star

60

Drag the bar to the right to open the fan and reveal stars

61

Rotate each piece into the direction of one point of a star. Since you're viewing it at an angle, it's tricky. Use the guide so that the upper two "arms" of the star are lined up so the top part of them are parallel to the ground, rather than pointing slightly up on the other line guide. So, two lines down from the line pointing straight up. Other than that, you can align the other three points where you think they would be.

62

Click the light triangle to the left of center, the section that borders it on its short edge, the next section over in the same direction and then the last two sections (should be obvious)

63

Move the mouse clockwise around the dotted circle to roll the carpet/star up

64

Click, in order, the left big orbiter, the right big orbiter, the right small orbiter, the left small orbiter and the middle small orbiter; if you mess up, click the bigger circle in the center to reset

65

Type "iwillfindastar" and click the center

66

Slowly drag the point up and right; let it snap back when the rest of the star is visible

67

Click repeatedly on the nose to make lines appear; click on the lines so they form a star

68

Click these boxes, given as across,down coordinates: 4,1 4,1 4,1 5,5 5,5 3,5 5,3 5,3 5,3 6,3 6,3 6,2 6,2 7,2 7,2 6,1 7,1 2,2 2,2 2,2 1,4 1,4

69

Memorize the pattern and choose ends for the star points that match; changes every time

70

Navigate the maze without letting any edge touch the side

71

No level, just credits; congratulations!

[Edit: with thanks to weirdguy for augmenting Kevin's steps to levels 49 and 61. -Jay]

Woot, got them all!

Is it just me, or did this one seem slightly less challenging overall than the first batch?

loving this game so far. i'm stuck on 68 and 70 (and whatever they subsequently unlock). i know what i'm supposed to do with each, it's just doing it that's hard! i'm glad there was a sequel to this game. i really liked how they included more sound effects into the puzzles, they add to the experience. cheers for posting this!

For stage 55:

Pick the box up by the lowermost corner and lift it as high as possible. Then drop it.

Reply

Hahahaha. I was slowly trying to write a walkthrough, but Kevin beat me to it. Great job!

Reply

Barring 40 and 49 (which have been finished by jay, see above if you need help), I have finished everything but 61, 65, 67, and 71.

41:

You have to click the outlines in order to light up the various 'pieces' on the ground. The star is near the top of the screen, and a little to the right.

53:

Grab the column of what appear to be boxes and move your cursor to the right. Keep doing this until the star is turned all the way around.

55:

Those stuck here are probably on the right track but just didn't take it far enough; you have to grab the box from very close to the bottommost corner and raise it up as high as you can before dropping it.

59:

Shoot the box without letting it drop out of sight until the star is revealed.

70:

This is a fairly straightforward maze; get the items, make use of the turning areas and don't touch the sides.

44.

Drag the hexagon to the left to reveal a star.

45.

Try to pull the cylinder upwards. Keep pulling.

46.

Grab onto a shape. Pull your mouse along the circle, and keep spinning it in the same direction until you win this round.

Grab the cube and pull it up higher than the top of the game screen, then drop it.

56.

Carefully pull all three sheets as far as you can.

Mouse over the circle. Move the mouse clockwise while it's on the circle. Keep the mouse over the circle while you're doing this.

64.

If you click on the circles in a certain order, the lines will eventually form into a star. The circle in the center will reset the lines if you click on it.

65.

If you did the first game, this stage isn't nearly as horrific or difficult as the first. Just type out the phrase, then grab the screen and give it a good yank.

Pull on the white tip on the bottom of the screen SLOWLY. Let go when you can see the whole thing.

67.

Click the man's nose to reveal nose hairs. Mouse over them (EW...) to pull them out, revealing a nose hair star. Ugh.

68.

Wherever you click, those squares will spin in a 3x3 pattern. Align all the pieces to form a star.

69.

Quickly memorize the pattern (or take a screenshot), then click on the parts to match up with the center, and hit the center button to see how you did.

70.

Toughie. Click on the hexagon to grab onto it, then carefully guide it to the end of the maze. YOU MUST NOT TOUCH ANY WALLS. Note that it only rotates when you are touching a "rotation" zone, and you'll want to turn the tip around when you see the first one.

Awesome game! Really fun to explore each new level, I liked the music-stage. I did need some help on 40, the one with the skirts. I was close to the solution, but gave up too early ;)
I hope there's more 'expansions' soon!

Reply

Hey, Jay, where's the click? And where is Harukio? I haven't noticed him

Reply

Argh. Does anyone have a more detailed solution for 70? Specifically the last turning point/obstacle. What angle should I be trying to rotate to?

Reply

This one is almost as good as the first. Maybe the first was a bit more varied in difficulty and harder overall but still a fun lunchtime's entertainment. I liked the music one because it wasn't too easy, and the only other one that was more than a little challenging was the skirts. I was even looking for the ecchi wind reference, but it took a look at the comments to find out how to do it. Maybe a slight ripple when you were doing almost the right thing would have helped.

I'd tried side to side, just not up/down fast enough.

Hmmm, stage 36 doesn't want to load for me, very annoying

Reply

This game (and every level) loads at 1/100th the speed their 1st game loaded. What happen? Jay, you mentioned something about a cron job?


[Edit: I have nothing to do with the loading of this game. It's entirely due to the traffic Ishii-san is receiving at his site. When the game first launched, the game was loading very quickly; now with word getting around the Web about it, you will encounter loading delays. That's just the way servers work when they are overloaded, if you can reach them at all. -Jay]

Anybody knows similiar games? Except Click Drag Type ;).

Great, now the sound won't load for the crystal glass level.

If someone had explained to me how Hoshi Saga was about, I would have very probably said it's a boring game - but I met it before anyone could have commented on it and, don't know how that works, but I liked it a lot.

Now, Hoshi 2 is the same stuff. Nothing new, no surprises, "no strings attached", it's just plain fun.

I found the sequel definitely - though not by far - easier than the first one, I solved it in like half an hour without any kind of hint or walkthru, but that's quite OK for a game like this.

Good work, hope to see Hoshi Saga #3 some day.

Reply

Website hosed, lol. Takes upwards of 5 minutes for each level to load!

Reply

I agree with Mike D: the music one's only hard if you don't know music, or how to play those "instruments". Before I got the hint that happens when you play the right first note, I was just fiddling with those Legend of Zelda tunes, and didn't know what I was supposed to play.

a-D f-a-D f-a-c-b g-f-g-a D-c-e D
(Or, referring to the place of the glasses instead of their pitch, the second one from the left is D, two to the right of that is F, and two more to the right is A. You can figure it out from there.

Reply

Can anybody give further instructions on how to do #40. For the life of me I can't get it! Maybe it's because I'm using a trackpad and just can't move the cursor fast enough!?

Loved stage 47. Playing 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' on the glasses was fun.

Reply

Man, that wine glass is hard until you get the hang of it. For people that have played music:
Ignore the sizes of the glasses. They're arranged from left to right CDEFGAB. That sheet music really does help.

Lastly, if you're not getting the sheet music, the first note is the glass on the far left.

Heheh, I just beat the wineglass stage on a computer at school that doesn't have speakers =D.

If anyone is having trouble with 38, note that Kevin's walkthrough is incorrect - the second walkthrough (weirdguy) is right.

Also, both walkthroughs are somewhat misleading about 46:

There's no need to drag the shapes. Just click anywhere on the play area and keep the mouse button pressed until the shapes rotate fast enough to form stars

Reply

This game is a really good sequel, the wineglass level was by far the most fun:

Easy if you can read notes.

Oh, and to Kegan:

Thanks, couldn't have done it without ya.

I know that right clicking doesn't work in Flash but that never seems to stop me from trying it.

How to do STAGE 47:

You sure?

Hey, I figured it out for myself...

Ok, ok, fine...

Last Chance!!!

Ok, so here we go. Step 1: From left to right, label in your mind that they are 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8. The highest one should be 5 if your doing it right. (You won't need to use all of them, though.) Now here's the order: 11 55 66 5 44 33 22 1 55 44 33 2 55 44 33 2 11 55 66 5 44 33 22 1. Congrats, there's your star!

Reply

61: I think there's more than one way to do it, but here's what I did.

I noticed there were ten slots in the guide. We have five pieces, so five slots are significant. Since it's a regular guide, I guessed that if you aligned each piece to a slot, then skipped a slot and did it again, something would happen.
Pick one as your starting slot, then align a piece so that the whole piece is inside it, with the long sides pointing toward the center of the guides. Nudge it until the sides are perfectly aligned with the guide. You're now finished with this piece.
Repeat this process with each piece, using every other slot as the guide for that particular piece. When each piece is precisely aligned, they'll fall into a star shape.

Fun game, great diversion! Too bad I need diversions like I need another hole in my head.

Reply

for level 70

you can "cheat" by right clicking and placeing the mouse where you want your hexagon to be. you then left click and your hexagon "teleports" there through any walls. you can collect the last star piece without worrying about walls this way.

Reply

Argh!

On level 47, do you have to get the rhythm perfect also?

Reply

LEVEL 64 --- PLEASE HELP!!

Is there a trick to the timing?

I can't figure this out for the life of me. I can see the five circles meet in a star pattern during their orbits, but I can't figure out when/which order to click each one so that the lines are correct. Any help would be greatly appreciated! My random clicking is getting me nowhere.

Reply

Is it just me or is it all loading very slowly?

Reply

Rufu:

No, rhythm is utterly unimportant. Just get the right notes in the right order.

Reply

I might get slammed for being pedantic about this but I just can't let these things go:

To everyone calling the initial shape in level 70 a hexagon: It's got five sides, not six. That makes it a PENTAGON, not a hexagon. Sorry, just had to say it.

Anyway, another great installment from Yoshio Ishii! Here's hoping there's a third in the near future!

Reply

there is a way to cheat in lv70

1.start normally
2.right click (ingore the buttons)
3.left click on the aim
4.turn the direction(the 'horn' points >)
5.rush to the 2nd pt
6.right click
7.wait until the two 'door' open- -"
8.left click on the aim
9.go to the next aim
10.right click�'left click on the aim

DID IT!!!

Reply

For level 47,

You rub only the top of the glass to simulate the sound. Click then sweep across the top to get it to play the sound.

Also, play the notes according to how you know it, the musical notes come gradually, and are all there after the first phase of the song "twinkle twinkle little star".

Even that took me forever to work out.

Reply

Oh, nice little touch with the attention to details on level 47: I don't know if anyone else noticed, but

when you "play" notes on the glasses, the liquid inside vibrates.

Reply

Stage 64: weirdguy's walkthrough is not very detailed for this stage, so here's an extra tip:

wait at the center of the screen until, once in a revolution, the stars align in a star pattern. The connect them by clicking them in order, to form not the outline of a star but a pentameter. You'll only be able to make one connection per revolution, so wait patiently until the stars align again, and again.

For those stuck on stage 68:

rather than try to complete the picture by working your way from the top down, try working from left to right. There's more wriggle room on the sides.

Reply

Before I even start, can someone tell me: do all the levels only require the mouse as input, or are there one or more (as in the first one) that use the keyboard?

Reply

Matthew - like the first one, you'll need the keyboard for at least one of them.

Reply

I freaked when I saw level 65 at first, but it turned out to be much easier than the first. One of my favorite games by far and I can't wait for a third instalment.

Reply

That was fun. My favorite level was probably 40. Heheh. 47 was also fun. I figured before I even started it that I'd have to

play "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star." But I had a hard time with it because I thought you were supposed to rub the glasses in circles, and kept accidentally getting more notes than I wanted. Once I started rubbing straight across it was easy.

And I had to cheat for 70. I blame my touchpad mouse! Surely I'm not just incompetent. Anyway, great game.

Reply

I really think that this "episode" was far to easy. Maybe it's because i was new to flash gaming in general when i did the first one but this was very easy

Reply

hey Tiberius what happened to #61? ;)

Reply

For number 47:

Play them in this order, they are numbered from left to right:
1,1,5,5,6,6,5 - "Twin,Kle,Twin,Kle,Lit,Tle,Star"
4,4,3,3,2,2,1 - "How,I,Won,Der,What,You,Are"
5,5,4,4,3,3,2 - "Up,A,Bove,The,Clouds,So,High"
5,5,4,4,3,3,2 - "Like,A,Di,amond,In,The,Sky
1,1,5,5,6,6,5 - "Twin,Kle,Twin,Kle,Lit,Tle,Star"
4,4,3,3,2,2,1 - "How,I,Won,Der,What,You,Are"
I organized them by verse.

Reply

I'm going crazy with level 70. Have read all comments and cheats. Can't do it. I can get the #@*#Star to bottom right, and then...crash. On the first game, I couldn't type fast enough to finish, and I guess I can't move fast enough for level 70. It's irritating, to say the least, to ALMOST finish both games...but I still enjoyed the heck out of them. Bring on Number 3 !!!

Reply

I just cannot get number 40! Do you have to hold the mouse button down too, or just move the mouse? I'm shaking the desk I'm trying so hard!

Reply

I play this on a laptop with a Trackpoint pointing device, and find Level 70 to be impossible. I really don't want to have to go buy a USB mouse just for one level... :)

Reply

Stage 47
For those of you who are tone death (or just can't seem to figure it out)

The goal is to ring the glasses so it sounds like "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" if you haven't already figured it out.
To play a note simply click and hold and make a circular motion on the rim of the glass.
Imagine that each class is a number
(from left to right)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Click each glass rim as followed:
First Line:1 1 5 5 6 6 5 4 4 3 3 2 2 1
Second Line:5 5 4 4 3 3 2
Repeat Second Line
Repeat First Line

Bistromathic September 21, 2007 2:25 PM

I love these games, but I have two problems with them. Firstly, now I keep seeing stars everywhere I look (I think that may have been from the level where

there were loads of nearly-stars and you had to find the real star

). Secondly, the difficulty progression isn't very good. A lot of levels are ridiculously easy (sometimes I just clicked and saw the level complete screen, and then had to go back to the level to find out how I had done it), and others are very difficult (the one with the

dresses

is a good example, even after I looked at the spoilers it took me ages). It would be nice if there were a few more medium-difficulty levels. Having said that, the game is well-designed and looks great, and a lot of thought clearly went into some of the level designs.

Reply

Now fot the twinkle, twinkle little star level i got a peice of paper and began my trial and error noting down each number. How did I work out the number? The glass on the left is 1, then 2, 3, 4.. you get the idea. I hope. The main song i got to begin with is

11 55 66 55 44 33 22 55

Hope that helped you get started.

After finishing this, does anyone know how to "reset" it so that it goes back to default levels (i.e. hidden levels around the edge, and no "star" icon next to completed levels)?

Rob - Flash developers can save your progress by using what's called a Shared Object, local storage on your computer where settings are stored. This is different than sites storing cookies.

You can access a control panel whereby you can delete the stored save data for individual sites...

http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html

That link will open the control panel. Scroll the list that appears until you find the domain ece4co.vis.ne.jp, and then click the "delete website" button.

This tech note from Adobe explains the Shared Object and the settings manager in more detail...

Thank you, Geer, for pointing out the water vibrates in 47! My computer at work has no sound, so made the level impossible, even with detailed spoiler instructions, until you pointed that out! (Many times I would strike a note and it doesn't register, so requires an extra attempt.) Even then it was hard, as can barely see the vibrations on my screen. :-)

Reply

i have to say, the one with the glasses was pretty annoying. it's a lot easier if you can read music though.

i also had trouble with level fourty, with the skirts.

Kaja Rainbow October 8, 2007 11:11 PM

As a deaf person, I find many absolutely sound-dependent games to be outright impossible. Thus, I was very grateful after reading that the water vibrates when notes are successfully struck, and used that to guide me through part of that jingle level. However, I gave up after still making errors--this wasn't the only level giving me a lot of trouble, and I pretty much settled for almost but not quite completing the game. I had only two unfinished particularly annoying levels anyway (47 and 70), so I'm considering this game effectively beat.

Yeah, I got most of these without help, but I'm still stuck on 70. For those of you who didn't cheat (apparently this doesn't work on a Mac), what direction do you have the star pointing to get through the last gap for the last point?

Reply

For the tone deaf, the notes to Twinkle Twinkle Little Star can be played as:

11556654433221 5544332 5544332 11556654433221. Good thing the glasses are in order; otherwise, I'd never be able to solve this as my sound card is fried.

This is a slightly odd question, but is there a way to delete all saved progress? I know it's the same, but I'd really like to start over from the start but it keeps saving all my progress.

Solution for 61:

1. Get the square in the top left hand corner

2. Move the grid over the 'x' of the second shape and move the shape so that the point matches with the line to the very left of the line going straight up

3. Move the grid over to the 3rd shape and move the shape so that it matches 2 lines to the left of the line going straight up

Continue this, only the shapes will face different ways

If you get the shapes in the right spot, the pieces will drop and form a star on the ground

Level 47 is the most annoying thing on two legs... well, it doesn't have two legs, but that's not the point! I knew the tune, it's just keeping my hands up to speed at almost midnight that's the problem... ^^

Well, there's loads already for 47, but:

Number each glass 1-8 going from left to right, then play this tune by sliding your mouse across the tops:
11 - 55 - 66 - 5 - 44 - 33 - 22 - 1 - 55 - 44 - 33 - 2 - 55 - 44 - 33 - 2 - 11 - 55 - 66 - 5 - 44 - 33 - 22 - 1

I know the order in which you should click the stars in stage 64

Look at when the stars form a pentagon (when they get the closest they can to each other) and think of how to make a star. If you don't know how, first click the top "orb", then the bottom right one, then the left one, then the right one, then the bottom left one, then the top point (of the pentagon) again.

I managed to whizz through them all no trouble. Until I got to level 70, that is. It's the most annoying, frustrating level I've ever played on Hoshi Saga. The first few times I attempted it, all I managed to do was move my mouse half a metre away from the computer. Now I can get to the second rotation zone.
It's so easy to touch the sides. Even an accidental 2mm move of the mouse can take you back to the start! Argh!
