Unlocking the Rest of the Puzzles

Once you've solved the five remembrance puzzles, play the songs as instructed.
For instructions on what to do after that if you get stuck, see below.

Once a song has been cleared on any difficulty, it will give you a code.
Since the song start window is pink, you can use these codes on the pink puzzles in the other application!
