Hoshi saga - great experimental minigames
This blog has to be mostly about experimental and casual games so I’m giving you today one really great experimental game. It’s called Hoshi saga, it’s from Japan and it’s about finding a star.
Sounds pretty boring, but it’s really not. In every level there is a hidden star and your task is to find, or somehow reveal it from it’s prison. But what’s beautiful about this game is that in every level you must do it absolutelly other way. Sometimes it’s just about luck, sometimes it’s about how neat-handed you are, sometimes it’s just about watching and “whoa” effect.
For example - in first level you can see a wall looking just like in Mario. If you click it, the part of wall will be destroyed. You must keep destroing the wall until you won’t find a star under it. But in the second level you will see just white background. “What the hell is going on?” you can say. But if you’ll be lucky enough and click at the right place, you will “push” a circle or triangle from the background. And you must keep searching until you won’t find the star shape.
So, are you good enough to find all the stars? Try it in your browser and trot us your score in comments :o)
