hoshi saga ringo
Yoshio Ishii finished another episode in the fine hoshi saga puzzle series: hoshi saga ringo.
Finally a new Hishi Saga Game. It's nice as always, but unfortunately it's way too easy :-( I used to love these games coz there were some really really hard levels in it.
@ Kirsten M. Try to reaload the site. I didn't have a black screen.
fantastic game as all the other Hoshi saga games!!! a bit too easy though.. i loved how chalenging the first three were... i especially loved begging my brother to come and help me with it. can't wait for the next one!
I can't get it to load properly. When I click on start, it brings me to the stage select screen, but it says all stages have been "found". I tried to "Reset Data" on the home page, but that didn't help. Any suggestions?
Woohoo I did them all! Am well chuffed but did think they were a tad easier than the other ones.
Kristin M - Level 16 - There are four squares (darker purple colour with miss matched star shappes in) sitting on two triangles of dark purple with two points on them. Use the latter as a starting point and click and drag the squares into the right place.
Long winded but I can not think of how else to explain it. Hope it helps.
yeah, this is much easier than I've come to expect from these hoshi games~ nice break for people like me who are so bad at these think outside the box type games... and I'm very glad there's not a lot of speed related puzzles since I use a laptop... but looking forward to seeing harder/more innovative puzzles from them!
lvl 7: hint #1: line up horizontal sticks to get star hint #2: this puzzle requires click + drag hint #3: since the sticks are not click-able, use something to help you line them up hint #4: ie. by pushing them against something hint #5: the only thing click-able on this screen is on the left
I think this one was easier because there were no puzzles over 2 or 3 stars in difficulty included. I went back and played the earlier games, and this one has nowhere near the level of frustration the other do. I think it's possibly too easy for a lot of people, though I'm sure everyone will find something to enjoy here. Thanks Bart.
While not as entertaining and definitely not as rewardingly funny as the previous installments, this was still a visual treat. But far far too easy, especially compared to its predecessors. Thanks for posting!
Wow, I do love Hoshi Saga games. This one was not as challenging as the other, way too easy ; even I finished it without any help... Must be damn easy then. Loved it anyway :)
I'm soooo in love with these games But this time it was easy. I liked the colours^-^ and I hope that Hoshi Saga series will be continued, and will be more complicated ^-^
I'm stuck on stage 20 (the hammer and anvil). I can't tell whether you have to click on the stars it makes, in which case I'm not fast enough; hammer faster, ditto; or there's a precise angle you have to raise it to. I know if you're too low it just creates shards, and if you swing it as far back as possible it makes stars of many points, but none of them are THE star.
Happy 2010! First.
ReplyDeleteYESSS! i love this!!! thank you sooo much bart!!!!!

ReplyDeleteFor the watch one think about the hand positions . . what time could it be?
ReplyDeleteI need help with 16... Not the black screen issue, but I just can't figure it out. At All.

Yikes!It was sooo easy and now I'm stuck on 7 of all things!I LOVE these games.THANKS!!!
ReplyDeleteEntirely too easy I was a little surprised and disappointed. Usually Hishi Saga games are far more tricky
ReplyDeleteThis was fun! Just enough challenge to keep it entertaining.
ReplyDeletesecond! i had no help whatsoever

ReplyDeleteLoved it anyway :)
*squawk!* way too easy, way too easy! *squawk!*
ReplyDeleteJust enjoy it for what it is!
:) Happy New Year Y'all!
What's with the clock?
ReplyDeleteI'm soooo in love with these games
ReplyDeleteBut this time it was easy.
I liked the colours^-^ and I hope that Hoshi Saga series will be continued, and will be more complicated ^-^
as for the clock,I just waite a half hour for it!!
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time I've played any of these games and I like it! But boy some of them are hard with a touchpad.
ReplyDeletei love these games, but this one was far too easy...
ReplyDeleteclock spoiler:
ReplyDeletealthough i believe the clock is related to the time on ur comp, you can change it by turning the clock around!
on the clock is a little "i" in the bottom left corner. click on it to turn the clock around.
ReplyDeleteth clock isnt related to ur computer! you have to set it to 12:00 so that the arrow on the big hand is the top point of the star!
ReplyDeletefor some reason i cannot get stage 5 ive reanaged the pieces soo many times
ReplyDeleteNevermind i didnt realize they could be rotated
ReplyDeleteunusual fantastic game! :)
ReplyDeletei think that one of "hoshi saga ringo" was the foretaste for the other sections of the game....
Very nice, loved it, but a bit easy, I could beat them all ;)
ReplyDeleteOMG...i LOVE this game...im so happy!! THX BART!!
ReplyDeleteI'm disappointed with how easy it was
