Look at the notes you can sing. Do they have anything in common with the fishes and the carved stones in the small caves?

If you want a straight answer, guide (with your voice) each group of colored fish to the stone that corresponds to the color of the fish

Good luck for the game, (you'll need it)  hope you enjoy the rest of the game.  ;)

This does seem to pose a problem to some but the solution is so simple when you've worked it out that you'll kick yourself Chalgaro, and it is the sweetest and safest puzzle in the entire game :D

spoilerjust think of the Pied Piper :D Chibi you are mean :p

Why? He will need it.  ;)  :P
I definitely did.

[Edit] not for the fish form, for the game as a whole (if you're wondering)

Why it isn't hard to do? I found the solution without any trouble at all, there's no luck in it, only in getting there, all you need do is sit back and think for a few minutes?

I was referring to the game as a whole, which definitely needed a little luck to get through.  ;) Sorry to have confused you.  ;)

I see :) but I still the only luck is in finding the recipes the rest is just ability really.

I was not under the impression that Aquaria took any luck at all.  All enemies spawn in the same places, foods and recipes are always found in the same spots, bosses follow strict patterns, and you can manipulate so much in the worldspace from luring enemies to easier territory to picking which form suits where.

The only luck I see in Aquaria is in determining how many ingredient drops you get.

tho this descended into semantics about the nature of luck and chance in the game, it should be noted that Chibi must have meant 'good luck' in a conversational manner and not literally, 'I hope that you are good with rainbows and leprechauns as this game has aspects that hinge on the roll of the dice'  however, I think it's good to analyze games and see whether it takes more elements of chance, like Sorry, or a balance, like Parcheesi, or straight up strategy like Chess.

I think that whatever pattern Simon gives you comes down to chance as well, some were easier to repeat than others, but that was an optional puzzle, not necessary for game completion.

It's ok everyone I was just enjoying winding Chibi up again but at least it's given us another subject to talk about lol Chibi I am sorry I am a mischevous old woman lol

I know what you mean about the patterns inkblob, I have seen at least one that's got repeated several times, perhaps that could be another solution?

Ah, I forgot about that boss.  There is definitely an element of chance there, but I don't think it diminishes the impact of what I was trying to say.

Well if you don't bother with him then I'm not surprised really, I will try again to beat him but in my second game I managed to finish it ok without the extra cooking spot even though beating him would round of the game nicely :(
