Hoshi Saga Ringo
Just when you thought you had seen the last of the Hoshi Saga series, Yoshio Ishii of Nekogames returns, and in full color! Hoshi Saga Ringo is the fourth installment in the Hoshi Saga series, and while it might not be as difficult as its predecessors, Ishii-san brings new life to the game with his beautiful artwork and use of gradients.
Play the entire Hoshi Saga Series:
As before, each puzzle asks you to click and drag your way to finding a star hidden within each screen. Feel free to click around and explore each level to find each solution. This episode contains 25 new puzzles to solve. Sadly, if you were a fan of the difficult five-star puzzles in past iterations of Hoshi Saga, you'll be a bit disappointed, as the highest-ranked puzzle here is two and a half stars. If you're new to the series though, this is an excellent warm-up exercise to get you used to the sort of puzzles used throughout the series.

Hoshi Saga Ringo Walkthrough
I hope it's clear. I don't typically write walkthroughs because my brain doesn't work that way. Mind you, scientists are trying to discover a way my brain WILL work, but that's a story for another day. Did you know the word "spoiler" stops looking like a real word if you type it eleventy million times? It's science! Onward!
STAGE ONE
From left to right:
1 2
3 4
Click the upper left corner of the first square. Then click the upper right corner.
Click the bottom right corner of the second square.
Click the bottom left corner of the third square.
Click the bottom right corner of the fourth square. Then click the upper right corner.
STAGE TWO
Click and pull the spikes up in the air, releasing them at the top of the screen. One of them (random) will turn into the star.
STAGE THREE
You are limited to creating a 7-square long path; lighting up an eighth square will erase the first square in the path. Once you've found where the star is, light up the squares in this order, starting with the top point:
~1
327
456
STAGE FOUR
Click the small round blue dot at the bottom right corner of the screen. Wait a while for the balls to roll out of the way, and eventually the star will drop down.
STAGE FIVE
Click on a rectangle to lift it into the air. Click on the bottom of it while its in the air to flip it upside-down. Move it over the tops of the other pieces, and click on the other rectangles to drop it down between them. Turn the pieces around and slide them into place to form a star.
STAGE SIX
Treating the screen like a 3D cube, click the top, bottom, back, and left and right sides in any order to have the shapes fall into place to create the star.
STAGE SEVEN
Click on the large purple block on the left hand side of the screen and drag it as far to the right as you can to create the star.
STAGE EIGHT
Click on the bump in the ground and drag it upwards to reveal the star.
STAGE NINE
Click on the corners of the leaf picture to make them fall away in slices to reveal the star. This can be done in any order.
STAGE TEN
Click on the picture of butterflies and, holding down on it, shake or spin the cursor in a circular motion to make loose pieces fly away, revealing the star.
STAGE ELEVEN
Click on the weight at the end of the chain and drag it up so it's hanging over the circle. Then pull the end of the chain down until the star is lifted up.
STAGE TWELVE
Click rapidly on the right side of the screen to make blocks fall that stack up to form an image of the star near the top of the screen.
STAGE THIRTEEN
Click at the top of the tree and drag it down to either side to reveal the star. You may need to do this several times, as it occasionally springs back up.
STAGE FOURTEEN
Click the three points marked below in that order as quick as you can.

STAGE FIFTEEN
Click and drag on the box in the center of the screen to rotate it. You can see flashes of blue through the small holes as the star falls around inside. The lines on the box represent the small "maze" within, so spin the box around carefully to help the star fall, using the holes as guides, until you can let it drop out of the exit. (The corner of the box that doesn't have the darker brown border around it.)
STAGE SIXTEEN
Click and drag the pink squares around on screen, pulling them all out of the center until you're left with the two large triangles. You want to place the squares you removed inside the space you've made in a certain order, so that the marks on them form a star. When you pick up a piece, it will rotate around until you drop it again. Just be patient and move carefully as you stack your pieces until you have the star in place.
STAGE SEVENTEEN
Click in the middle of the screen and pull upwards or downwards to reveal that the blue lines are actually two big waves that need to be pushed apart to reveal the star. Click and drag the bottom wave all the way down to the screen and release it, then quickly click the top wave and pull it all the way up to reveal the star. The top wave falls right back into place, while the bottom wave moves much slower, so you need to move the bottom first.
STAGE EIGHTEEN
Click and hold on the screen until the darker colour has slid all the way to the top and vanished, then release. The darker colour will slowly move back down the screen, but the star will build itself out of nowhere. Magic! Don't say I never treat you to anything.
STAGE NINETEEN
Click on the dots to reveal arrows pointing the way to the star. The star will be in a random position on the board. You'll have to click the correct dots or the board will reset itself.
STAGE TWENTY
Click and drag the mallet up and back until it's nearly touching the edge of the screen and then release. When it strikes the ground, it will form stars. If you pull it back too far or not far enough, the stars will look wrong and won't count.
STAGE TWENTY-ONE
Click the small letter i in the bottom left corner to flip the clock over and set it to "1:0", then click the bar below the numbers to flip it back around and reveal the star.
STAGE TWENTY-TWO
Click on the small while dots as shown below.

STAGE TWENTY-THREE
Click on the small arrows to make paths for the star pieces. The stars will slide in the direction an arrow is pointing, and stop if they reach another piece or an empty space. Here is my solution, and the order I used to slide the pieces to form the star.

STAGE TWENTY-FOUR
Requires patience. Green light streams in to form the star, but it can't form a line if a boulder is blocking it. Click on a boulder to pick it up and move it around. Click again to place it down. If you bump into a boulder with another, it will send it flying. You need to position the boulders around the screen so the light isn't blocked and they don't bump each other. Be careful, as they occassionally drift a little. Here's my solution.

STAGE TWENTY-FIVE
BOSS FIGHT.
No, no. Not really.
It's a mini point-and-click maze. You click on a doorway to go through it. You're basically moving in a big square connected by these tiny rooms, looking for star pieces. Click on one when you find it to pick it up. You'll also need to find the key to open the door to the last one. One star piece is hidden behind a door that blends into the wall and you'll need to click it to open it up. Here's a picture of the SUPER SECRET door's location in case you miss it.
