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

    ReplyDelete
  10. Got 58. Now I can't get 60.

    ReplyDelete
  11. WOO! I got 72!

  12. 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.

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

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

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

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

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

    ReplyDelete
  18. !!!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

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

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

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  22. no, opps found the star :D

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

    ReplyDelete
  24. @ Jack Sparrow,

    I bow down to you. You rock!

    ReplyDelete
  25. 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!

    ReplyDelete
  26. 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!

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

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

    ReplyDelete
  29. never mind, got it

    ReplyDelete
  30. some one please. anyone. please. level 54?

    ReplyDelete
  31. @ivana up to four + down to 1

    ReplyDelete
  32. on 54 you turn the balls sideways on the left to find the star

    ReplyDelete
  33. Help for level 53 please?

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

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

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

    ReplyDelete
  37. @ Bart Bonte

    You got everyone buzzin' man =]

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

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

    Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  39. 74 just goes right over my head

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

    ReplyDelete
  41. 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.

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

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

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

    ReplyDelete
  45. 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!...

  46. anyone solve 75? i cant make any sense of it

  47. Lotti Karotti8 May 2011 at 21:35

    @ 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? :)

    ReplyDelete
  48. I do not get 53

    ReplyDelete
  49. i got them all!

    ReplyDelete
  50. 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!! :)

    ReplyDelete
  51. 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!

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

    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

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

    ReplyDelete
  56. 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.

    ReplyDelete
  57. Great game! Love Hoshi Saga!

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

    ReplyDelete
  59. I dont't get 58!!!!! Can anyone help??

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

    ReplyDelete
  61. 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.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Yay! Completed all levels with no hints.

    ReplyDelete
  63. @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!

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

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

    ReplyDelete
  66. 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.

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

    ReplyDelete
  68. 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!!

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

  70. need help on 67 !!!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  72. 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.

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

    ReplyDelete
  74. I'm glad I could be of service :D

  77. 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!

    ReplyDelete
  78. 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.

  82. can i get any help with 70??

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

    ReplyDelete
  84. 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.

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

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

    ReplyDelete
  89. Love love love these games...

    ReplyDelete
  90. 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???!!

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

    ReplyDelete
  92. thank you people!!! i finally got 65!!
