I can't get 55, 58, 65, 71, 72, and 74. Can anyone help?

Anonymous said...

Got 58. Now I can't get 60.

WOO! I got 72!

Got 60.

SPOILERS/HINTS
Anonymous: 55: Just click, click, click, click, click, click and fly ;). 60: Click the things in the right order (sky and rainbow are two different things). You'll know when you make a mistake. 65: Remove the screws. A bit of exploring reveals some numbers. And I do not know what to do with them. 71: Click the parts in the right order. You'll know when you make a mistake. 72: Bounce off the yellow bit, avoid the blue. 74: Starting from the inside: first circle is connected with the fourth, second with the last, third with the first, fourth with the second and the last with the third. Notice that the connections aren't symetrical: first controls fourth, but fourth controls the second one. Well, just line them up and create the star. It'll probably take a while.

Got 55. I fell so stupid. It was so easy...

Please, some help with 65? I have a green dot with a four and I've found 4 more numbers hidden.

Anonymous said...

Stuck on 65, 71, and 74. Help please!

Carrot said...

I just dont get number 65 - the "4" number seems to be connected to the number of screws, buts thats all ive got.. :(

Anonymous said...

Thanks to Dominik! I got all of them other than 65 and 74. Are there any other clues that you have that can help?

JackSparrow said...

!!!SPOILER ALERT!!!

Solved 65 =]

the golden letters are roman numerals for levels 61-65 and the chalk numbers are the clicks you have to click in each level in order to get the green light to go on

Anonymous said...

65.. OMG

Stavros said...

In 65 the numbers are related to the scores in the relevant puzzles from 61-65...

Hello, I feel stupid because I can't get #53 which is not supposed to be difficult. Any hints please?

Freja said...

can't make stage 58!! someone please help!? :(

freja said...

no, opps found the star :D

Anonymous said...

What are you surposed to do on stage 59? help please?

Anonymous said...

@ Jack Sparrow,

I bow down to you. You rock!

Anonymous said...

Must quit for now. I still quite stuck on 74. If anyone figures out the order in which to turn the circles please post it. Thanks to everyone for all the help!

Wallace said...

WOW. Just discovered that 74 is way easier than it looks. Here's what to do:

Start with ANY circle. You then move the circle that moved when you moved the first. You just keep going like that: it's showing you the order to move them in!

hmm having trouble with 70.... :S any help?

Anonymous said...

does anyone know which 8 dots have to go on 61?

Anonymous said...

sybil said...

63 in 3 clicks: 1+4

Anonymous said...

@ivana up to four + down to 1

Anonymous said...

on 54 you turn the balls sideways on the left to find the star

Anonymous said...

Help for level 53 please?

Anonymous said...

oh gosh. i feel stupid now. thanks a ton :)

sybil said...

Level 54: Roll the circles to the left and line them up to make the star.

Anonymous said...

for 53: pull the top around to the left. its pretty much trial and error, i just kept trying at it.

JackSparrow said...

@ Bart Bonte

You got everyone buzzin' man =]

that game made me waiting for a "me and the key" part III

Me/You said...

I'm totally stuck in the 59! I don't understand if I do wrong or right! Please could someone help me?

Thanks!

Anonymous said...

74 just goes right over my head

Me/You said...

Ok, that was much easier as I thought...

sybil said...

Level 70: You pull the bigger flashing diamond beyond a smaller flashing diamond then let it ping. It will form a twinkling trail. Go from diamond to diamond until you make the star.

Level 59: Just be gentle with the balance and you can also shift the shapes a little too to line them up.

Niall said...

Anyone figure out level 75? I haven't a clue what to do.

Niall said...

Never mind. I managed it, although I've no idea how.

Me/You said...

Ok, I really don't have any idea for 75...

Me/You said...

Ok, I've got it :

spoiler









The two boys show with their finger where the star is... There is a bug (?) when you press TAB, you'll see where you have to click!...

anyone solve 75? i cant make any sense of it

Lotti Karotti said...

@ Wallace....anyhow this isn't working for lvl 74....this lvl is really driving me crazy XD
so do we have more clues for 74? anyone? ....uh...HELP? :)

Anonymous said...

I do not get 53

Anonymous said...

i got them all!

Carly said...

Got them all without any help! I am SO proud of myself :)

Anonymous: For level 75 just click on one of the silver paths the kids are making. The star will appear.

For level 74, Lotti, it will take a bit of trial and error. Move the circles in this order: 5, 3, 1, 4, and 2. The outer ring will be off again. Move it halfway towards where it needs to be and move all other circles again as well. Eventually they will line up.

For level 53 you need to line up the upper fence so that it will push the lower fence into the proper alignment for the star. The two longest boards will need to be lined up so theu push the two outer boards with the star on them down.

This was fun!! :)

Carly said...

Oh, and for 59: You can actually "hold" the pieces on the scale. Tip the scale all the way to the left, then to the right, and while the pieces slide to the right hold the right piece in place. Ta daa!

Emily said...

i havent even began the game yet but thank you SO MUCH for putting it up. I LOVE THE STAR GAMES!!! :)))

Paperback Writer said...

Yeah, finally a new Hoshi-Game. It's really nice, but unfortunately (like the last one) way too easy :(

I prefer it when they were really hard like the first few :D

Angela said...

JACKSPARROW: you are my hero. thank you for posting 65. i believe you have earned the title of captain.

Anonymous said...

LEVEL 74-> From the outside in, start by moving the 4th circle so it matches the 2nd. Then move the 3rd so it matches the 1st. Now move the 2nd so both the 4th and 2nd match the center, and finally the 1st so both the 1st and 3rd match the rest.

Anonymous said...

Great game! Love Hoshi Saga!

Anonymous said...

YAY I FINALLY FINISHED THE GAME! This one better make it into the TOP 10 this year Bart!

Rabbitz said...

I dont't get 58!!!!! Can anyone help??

Rabbitz said...

Nevermind! You just gotta follow it and wait until you think it's full!! It takes patience and time....

Stephen said...

I have followed the instructions for level 65 (I think). It says that the roman numerals are the levels. Is this the actual level (play the level over again with the proper clicks?) it self, or right on the screen with the roman numerals and how many clicks?

It is the only level I have left excluding the last one because it is not available.

Anonymous said...

Yay! Completed all levels with no hints.

kjen said...

@anon at 01.26.. Thank you so much for solution to 74, I was following your instructions so intently, I actually jumped at the ding of solution ! Thanks again!

Anonymous said...

This one is so fun that I played the whole series over again!

Cynthia said...

YAY! The credits say "To Be Continued" -- can't wait! :)

Anonymous said...

Rabbitz,

Thank you for demonstrating how to do "nevermind" properly. You GAVE THE SOLUTION. This is the polite way to do it. As Stephen demonstrated, you were not the only person in the universe who had trouble on 65, and so instead of just saying "nevermind" you payed it forward and helped the next person. Well done.

Lotti Karotti said...

Carly - YOU ARE MY HERO :) thank you so much :)

itsunami said...

Help me please! In lvl 64, how do you understand where the star will be? Is it random? I can't manage to solve it in just one click!! (in order to get level 65 straight). help!!

Bartfan said...

Here's a good walkthrough for all the levels http://jayisgames.com/archives/2011/05/hoshi_saga_ringoen.php#walkthrough

its ok i found the star

Anonymous said...

Carly,

Your way of getting lvl 74 made the most sense. Thank you!

It was still annoying to get it. I virtually had it but had to keep fiddling a bit more than I thought was necessary. Finally gave me credit.

Marge said...

@Carly
I love you.
Thank you for the solution of level 74.

Carly said...

I'm glad I could be of service :D

Rabbitz said...

Your welcome!! I was thinking the exact same thing!!

Your welcome!! I was thinking the exact same thing!!

Carly said...

Stephen, it's the actual levels that you will have to complete in *so* many clicks. But I'm sure you've figured that out by now.

By the way - I spent a good chunk of my day yesterday solving all the other hoshi saga puzzles. The early ones are all in black and white. I am glad Yoshio Ishii found the technicolor button ;) Can't wait for the next round!

Anonymous said...

Finished the game, but I never figured out whether there's a way to predict where the star will be in level 64, or if it's just dumb luck that you end up in the right place. If somebody finds a way, please tell me because I kind of feel like the puzzle isn't really solved until you figure that out.

I finally finished!! I went crazy tryin 2 figure out what 74 was, but thanks 2 Carly's post I finally got it!

dyork said...

Fun, some nice puzzles, but far too uneven. Some are instant, on sight; at least 2 I solved without ever knowing how or why; yet others are really hard and took many tries.

But 65 is just too hard. The pattern is entirely novel, and unclued. I solved the puzzles down columns; 65 is much easier if you solve across rows. Easy enough when you know what to do, but once stuck you are going to be be stuck a long time.

Yeaaaah! I got it! I LOVE Hoshi Saga games!!! :D

Found some fun hidden patterns on #56: Atari logo, heart w/arrow through it, and weird face-ish thing.

sandra said...

for 64, the position of the star is related to the starting point of the little man:D

Zizibo said...

Love love love these games...

french said...

I don't understand 65! Completed 61-64 in the right number of clicks- 2 green lights, then 3 when I did the screws again - then back to 2lights???!!

Anonymous said...

The last level won't load, even though I finished all the other levels. I don't know why.

Danai said...

thank you people!!! i finally got 65!!

tam said...
