heartreasure [browser]

Can you find the 50 hearts in the charming puzzle game Heartreasure by Nettaigyo and Asaha? (note: the game does not save your progress)

  1. Excruciatingly cute, but good fun. Had my usual Unity game blurring, though not too bad.

  6. Need some help getting red, green, and blue open - any hints?

    ReplyDelete
  7. Each of the 5 areas will tell you when done.
    Areas have to open in order.
    play piano as in the clue "G F C"
    I can't open last section even though the power is on.
    Do I have to play"C D F E' B' "?
    If so, how do I ?

    The green area opens by pressing the G-F-C keys on the keyboard. (For those who cannot read music, the key on the left is C.)

  9. Any hints to open the red area would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks.

  10. Power of posting. Found red.

  11. I don't read sheet music, so I found this site helpful for solving the two piano puzzles: https://www.musicnotes.com/now/tips/how-to-read-sheet-music/

  14. It took me a distressingly long time to realize I had to hit the notes on the piano in yellow zone rather than my actual keyboard

    ReplyDelete
  15. I have only unlocked the yellow area, no idea about the rest. Found no creature who digs holes, no way of turning on the power and no way to play the Sol-Fa-Do musical notes =(

    ReplyDelete
  16. pffff, ok, unlocked.

    now to find everything is hard!!!

    ReplyDelete
  17. @Yu
    Each area contains the way to unlock the next. So look around in the yellow area and you will find something that helps to unlock one of the other areas. (Hint: it's not the hole-digger.)

  18. Yay! I found them all! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  19. This game was amazing. Love the artwork too

    ReplyDelete
  20. I am sure being able to read the music notes helps you play the piano but I don't know music

    ReplyDelete
  21. Okay so I got the keyboard... now I have no idea who digs holes or how to turn on the power...

    ReplyDelete
  22. Stacey. Who dug the holes? In the bottom left of the green area, there is a number of holes with a worm poking out of one of them. Keep clicking on the worm as it moves from hole to hole until it stops.
    For those who can't read music, the white keys from left to right are C-D-E-F-G-A-B. The flat keys are the black keys to the left of the white key. So E-flat is the second black key from the left. B-flat is the first black key from the right.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Stacey. Turn on the power? In the red area, there is an electrical outlet on the side of the tower with a plug end of a cord next to it. Click on the plug end to plug it into the outlet. Then follow the cord to the music signboard. Go to keyboard and play those keys. See my notes about how to read the music in my previous post to you.
    Hope this helps.

  24. Note: I stopped playing with a couple of hearts left to find, and when I opened it again, I had to start at the beginning again. It didn't save my progress.

  25. Thank you Anonymous!!! I am now at 40

    ReplyDelete
  26. okay... 45 cleared yellow and blue :-)

    ReplyDelete
  27. 49 hearts,, all areas clear,,, where is the last heart i stg

    ReplyDelete
  28. Unknown 21:14. Like you, I had cleared all the sections and still was missing one. Only place to look was in the middle section. The last heart I found was on the right-hand edge of the sign in that section. If you have cleared the red, green, yellow and blue sections, it must be in the middle -- the very first section where you originally started. Hope this helps.

    ReplyDelete
  29. I got to 49, and I couldn't find the last one, so I turned on an auto-clicker program and just started scanning the remaining area for the heart. Didn't take long. <3

    ReplyDelete
  30. BEST TIP: Complete each area before you move on to the next, to limit your searching area for hearts. If you're missing just a couple, it's much easier to search one area than all five for your missing hearts.

    The colored hearts don't count toward the 50. 14 in the first area, 8 in the yellow area, 10 in green, 8 in red, and 10 in blue. You have to know basic sheet music and piano notes to open the green and blue areas. You can complete each area before moving on to the next (all hearts are visible as soon as the area is visible).

  31. Loved this game! Simple and cute, but great execution!💛 Thanks, Bart!

    ReplyDelete
  32. Finally found that last heart. Finished in about 15-20 minutes, with the single hint "Areas must be unlocked in order." For some reason I wasn't putting together the staff and the piano keyboard even though I play piano. Anyway, very cute, some of them were freaking tiny, but the music track isn't half bad to have to listen to 10 times, which is the most important part. A game like this with more annoying music would be unbearable (unless you muted it of course).

  33. A lot of fun. Reminds me strongly of Hidden Folks, by Adriaan de Jongh: https://adriaandejongh.nl/

    ReplyDelete
  34. Awesomely cute little game! Found them all!

    ReplyDelete
  35. Very cute and fun! Music was pleasant enough to hear on loop. Enjoyed the mix of finding and puzzles. As @Stevens Miller said, reminds one of Hidden Folks. Thanks, Bart!

    ReplyDelete
  36. I really enjoyed this game, and I'm hoping they collaborate to make another like it. I liked the artwork, animation, simplicity and minimalism, music, control, and everything --- a rarity for me that it all comes together in such a simple game.

    It also reminded me significantly of your work, Bart.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Everyone keeps talking about the music, but I'm not getting any sound. Do you have to do something first? I've found everything in the first section and yellow section, but nothing I do on the keyboard works, so I must be missing something. Help!

  38. i have the power on but it won't open the blue, I've played the notes and its plugged in

    ReplyDelete
  39. Anyone know of games that are similar to thi one?

    Hidden Folks

  42. @Stevens Miller, I've played Hidden Folks before which is why I was asking if there were any other similar games besides that.
