Important Game Notes:

This game has numerous levels in which two (2) and three (3) stars can not be achieved, in my opinion.

All three (3) stars are achievable on all levels in Normal Mode. Save yourself some frustration by sticking with the Normal Mode.

  • Level 31: 3 stars require 2260 points (12% higher than normal mode)
