MythologyAll 3 storiesWatch all 3 black-storyteller episodes in Chapters 2, 3, and 5

Check chapters for Jepice and Zaba too

Jepice covers the Chapter 1 pod bug and the Chapter 3 bug from sounding cocoons; Zaba covers Chapter 3's 4 singing frogs and the frog made with pipes in Chapter 4.

Even when Steam lists identical names, check each corresponding action separately.

3 black-storyteller locations

Listen to the complete story below the singing group in Chapter 2, left beyond the pig in Chapter 3, and lower-right of the multidirectional junction in Chapter 5.

The second and third encounters replace/update a card rather than adding 2 new ones. Check the all-3-stories achievement separately.

Checks before ending a chapter

Prioritize Chapter 3's 11 watered shoots, Chapter 4's bubbles for everyone, 5 clocks, 6 pipes, and jack-in-the-box, and Chapter 5's singing platforms, race, and circus.

At the end, check 5 glowing orbs, all 123 cards, and Chapter 6 completion separately. Merely collecting cards does not mean the main game is complete.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Q1 I have 123 cards but achievements are missing ▼
A

Check all 6 chapter endings, Mythology for the storyteller's 3 stories, and separate targets of identically named achievements.

Q2 Only Svolavac remains ▼
A

Water all 11 shoots in Chapter 3 and inspect the singer in the pod beside the ladder. The main-route ladder alone is insufficient.
