Brilliance serves as a player's overall score in the game as a whole, and not the accumulation of points earned by each level. 

At the end of each level, your brilliance score is determined by the number of stars you've earned and whether or not you achieved the bonus goal.

Here’s how it breaks down:

• • 3 stars with bonus goal = 100 brilliance
  • 3 stars without bonus goal = 75 brilliance
  • 2 stars with bonus goal = 75 brilliance
  • 2 stars without bonus goal = 50 brilliance
  • 1 star with bonus goal = 50 brilliance
  • 1 star, no bonus goal = 25 brilliance
