Unlock Memories and plan your next reward

Quick answer

Enter the Forgotten Temple’s portal and activate the totem at the Edge of the Echo, then return to restore recorded Memories. Chapter I’s October 12 notes confirm that some creatures must be defeated in combat before their Memory is gained; the affected creature list is not supplied.

Before you start

  • Look for the portal icon on your world map.
  • The calculator models published milestones, not a live game account.

Plan your next Memory reward

Enter distinct discoveries in this world. Count pending discoveries only once, and exclude everything already restored.

Scroll the table to see each reward and your next step.

Published milestones · reviewed September 12, 2026

50Morph Potions and travel allowance50 more discoveries needed

Reaching a threshold can unlock a recipe; its crafting materials and station requirements still apply.

Local calculation only. This does not read your game or save these counts.

Backpack Upgrade II no longer needs 100 Memories

Hotfix 0.7.2 removes the 100-restored-Memory gate for Backpack Upgrade II. Its recipe now belongs to the Goblin Tinkerer’s Workbench after repairing the Compressor. The planner retains the other dated milestone rewards; do not gather 100 Memories solely for this backpack upgrade.

Activate before exploring widely

The earlier walkthrough places the Memory totem beyond the guarded Temple portal, reached by stairs behind the altar. It reports that activating the totem starts collection and previous encounters are not retroactively recorded. The Chapter I launch separately directs players to the new Goblin Lab; follow the Chapter I entry guide for that route.

At the Forgotten Temple, go past the stone statue with the blue glow and down into the candle-lit chamber. Interact with the tall stone totem with the blue flower; “New memory collected” notices follow.

Chapter I: some Memories require a defeat

The October 12 released notes confirm that some creatures now grant their Memory only after defeat in combat. This rule is no longer documented only in the Update 7 preview. The announcement does not name the affected creatures or say that every Memory requires combat.

If approaching a creature gives no discovery notice, check the recorded list before assuming a bug. Kingy has not tested creature-specific triggers or whether a previously encountered creature can be recorded later.

Published milestone rewards

The planner above shows selected rewards at each published milestone. A restored threshold can open a recipe, but you still need its materials and the required station. Enter only distinct discoveries that have not already been restored.

If Memories vanished after leaving

Hotfix 0.6.2 fixes discoveries lost when exiting the game or stopping a server. Update to the current stable build before testing that failure again. Keep discovery and restoration separate: the planner cannot know what your totem has received.
