Alyssa's Star Challenge is a daily activity in the Magical Forest. This feature was introduced in July 2008 and is available to all account types.

Objective

The object of the game is to catch and collect special stars which can be exchanged for a grand prize. Much like the Curio Shop#Gem Hunt in the Curio Shop, players get three chances at finding a star every day. Unlike the Gem Hunt, there are also other prizes to collect along the way.

To hunt for a star, touch the tip of the net on a colored star in the sky. This will reveal a constellation, which may or may not yield a star. If a star is not found, the player may use their remaining turns for another chance. Occasionally, clicking a colored star will yield a food prize which will end the Star Challenge for the day. If a star is found, Alyssa will offer to buy it in exchange for KinzCash. If the trade is declined, the star is added to the player's Star Collection.

Stars may also be traded with Nafaria, who periodically appears on the side of the screen to offer her Nafaria-themed items for the player's stars. For more information on this perennial Click-to-Win feature, see the full article at Nafaria's Star Challenge.

Shooting Stars

During the Star Challenge, a Shooting Star may fly across the screen. The Shooting Star sometimes contains a Comet, which will give one of the prizes below and the Star Challenge will be completed for the day. If the Shooting Star does not contain a Comet, the word "Shooting Star" will appear across the sky and no prize is awarded. Clicking on the Shooting Star uses one of the three daily turns at finding a Star.

-While you are hunting for stars, you may see a Shooting Star or a Comet fly across the sky. Sometimes these flying objects contain prizes, sometimes they do not. If you would like to use up one of your three chances at finding a star, you may choose to click on the Star/Comet instead.
-If the item is a Comet, you will be rewarded with either a Star Challenge-themed food item, or a piece of the Solar Suit costume. If the item is a Shooting Star, the message "Shooting Star" will appear on the screen. There is no way to know if the item is a Star or a Comet before you click on it.

-When you find a star, you can either keep it for your collection, or sell it to the fairy. The fairy will offer you payment in the form of a "Pixie Puck" worth a certain amount of KinzCash. You don't get to keep the Puck, you just get the cash.
