28 manual sheets and endings

Checklist pairing the cover and pages 1–55 into the 28 collectible sheets. Check not just location, but key, prayer, later movement and fairy-reward requirements.

Scope: Basic progression for Steam App 553420, including assistance settings added in the official 2022-09-27 update. Checked: 2026-10-02 UTC. This is not a single list of current build numbers across every platform.

Later progression appears when you choose "Expand to read," and puzzle inputs require the additional "View answer" choice. Search alone does not open closed answers. Chapter links open the chapter you select.

Check 28 manual sheets

0 / 0 Complete (saved automatically on this device)

Collect 28 sheets; read 56 sides

The cover is not a printed "page 0." Count cover/1 as one pair and 2/3 through 54/55 as the remaining 27. Check both sides of your manual.

Read control pages 12–19 early on for button uses, stamina and upgrades.
When finding a regional page, compare its pictures with local doors, pillars and items. You need not translate unreadable characters one by one.
Later, use pages 43–49 to check line inputs and fairy mechanics, then return for needed sheets.

Compare your manual with the page numbers and inspect pairs for missing sides.

2 endings: conversation versus combat

Expand to read (Answer and ending information）

Choose Retry after an ending to keep collecting. Distinguish it from NG+, which starts another run.
Thank you for playing! requires completing the manual. Game Over requires defeating the Heir. Check ending choices separately from achievement conditions.

Choice	Preparation	Final action
Fight	Recover stats and prepare for the 2-phase Heir battle.	Attack, fight and win. Do not assume it impossible solely because the manual is complete.
Share knowledge	Collect all 28 sheets, including the 10-fairy reward and cover/1.	Speak to the Heir while carrying the completed manual.

Advanced sound/text decoding, all 20 fairies and all 12 secret treasures are not required for the manual-handover ending.
