Strange disappearing tokens

I've found all the tokens, and have double checked off the list by going after them all again, but after using them all in the arcade machines, I seem to be one short!
I have this vague memory that I accidentally put a second token in the Wakka Wakka machine after activating level 2, but not finishing it, and now it's gone for ever (I've since finished level 2, but level 3 didn't become available).
Is there a cheat so I can get one more token and finish the game? I really don't want to have to start right from the beginning again!

I'll guess you haven't seen the star south of the arcade machine. When you've put a token in the machine, a star appears. Such a star does not disappear.

I've attached a screenshot at the Arcade.

My character is standing almost in the middle in the corner. I've put a black circle around him so you can't confuse my with the other stinker.

In the red circle you see the star that goes to the Level "Wakka Wakka 2"
When you haven't played a level in the arcade, the star stays yellow/gold.
When you played and finished it, the star on the floor turns dark blue.
When you haven't put a token in an arcade machine, no star will appear.
When you put 3 tokens in an arcade machine, the 3 stars appear all 3.

Hope you find that last level now!

Thanks folks, but that's not it, I had found that second star, and I've even completed it!

You shouldn't have been able to do that! :( Might be a bug in the game?

Do you have three dark stars or two dark stars by the machine?

Maybe send a pm to Midnight Synergy and ask them?

You can still finish the game I think without one of the Arcade levels can't you Erwin? I can't remember! :oops:

Good luck :D

There are 105 levels, so 105 stars to get thru the last gate located south at the Market Place.
If you mean finishing the story, then you only have to finish the level 'the Pruple Shard" and get that purple shard of course. Please don't cheat in this level cos then you don't get the shard.

But I'm way off topic now.

So you've played Wakka Wakka 2. And not Wakka Wakka 3?
So there isn't a third golden star on the floor north of that machine? But you remember you've put a third token in? Very strang indeed then :!:

In my picture I've only played Wakka Wakka 1 and put the 2 other tokens straight in the machine.
For the arcade machine in the middle, in the corner if you want, I've only put 1 token in and I haven't played the first level yet.
Are you not confusing Wakka Wakka 3 star with the one for the level 2 Brick Buster (I'm just guessing) ???
If this isn't the case, then you have to wait until MS replies. Or you can send MS (Patrick if you like) a PM explaining your problem.
Maybe providing us with a screenshot will help us more then telling us what's your problem.

Yes, I've played Wakka Wakka 2, and opened up the third level on all other games (but not that one), but I've gone through the list of tokens and checked for all of them, and I haven't missed any!
I wouldn't mind to much, but I'd really like to walk through that last star gate!

You haven't saved a savegame before you put that token into the machine.
Why not restarting then a whole new game. And just cheat on every level you like. Then you get faster into the arcade.
Of course you don't get all the coins. But then you are a cheater and you know where everything is.
Or just replay every level again.

I can't help you more. Sorry!

Or just put a screenshot from your Arcade here on the board.

I used one token and the star didn't appear .Not in that particular machine, but the one on the right side.What can I do?

Unfortunately I didn't have a save game from before I put the token in, so I just ended up playing the game over.
