Game The mini game is designed to teach the player to recognize all the 88 modern constellations and brightest stars in the night sky by taking them through a number of levels. Levels are divided into categories (constellations & stars), regions (north, equator, south) and difficulties (simple, medium, hard). Each level teaches only a little number of objects and then trains the knowledge in a quiz mini game to aid memorization. Later levels also review and retest the knowledge of previously learnt objects. Levels In each level, you're first given an occasion to see and memorize the objects (constellations or stars) of that level. Use the arrows to go through all of them, and click 'Begin' once you're ready. The description of each object is displayed on the panel at the bottom of the screen. The panel can be expanded by dragging it up to present more info about the object. After clicking “Begin”, an object will be shown and you’ll be presented with 4 options. The level ends when you reply a certain number of questions (shown in the top-left corner) correctly. At the end of the level you'll have the occasion to review the mistakes you’ve created before progressing further. Please note, in challenge levels, no tips are accessible and you are given only a limited number of lives to pass them. Difficulties Each level is accessible in 3 difficulties: simple, medium, and hard. Easy levels present the lines of the constellations, making the experience less related to the true night sky, but it's the first step of learning. Medium levels hide the lines of the constellations, but present their precise borders and the lines of the surrounding constellations to assist the recognition. Hard levels are closest to the true night sky: they only present the approximate place of the objects, instead of the exact shape (the borders), and randomly select the orientation each time, so that you learn to recognize the objects from other angle. We suggest going through each difficulty, from simple to hard, for optimal learning experience, unless you have prior knowledge that allows you to skip easier levels. Explore screen The discover screen (third button on the main screen) allows you to discover the sky on your own. Tapping on the objects (e.g. names of the stars or constellations) shows more info about them (e.g. abbreviation, brightest star, place of the sky, bright stars, distance etc.). You can also use the same double-tap gesture to quickly hide/reveal all the decorations. The find icon (top-right corner) allows you to quickly search a particular object you're interested in. Have fun learning constellations and stars in the sky!
