General Tips for Finding All Evidence
- Always examine desks, tables, cabinets, sinks, and pinned notes.
- Many Evidence items only appear after interacting with glowing objects or listening to specific dialogues/brains.
- Connect related Evidence on the Investigation Board as soon as possible — correct groupings give Dream Essence.
- Some Evidence is locked behind keys, Leyden Jars, masks, or story progress.
- Revisit areas after gaining new tools (Staff Key, Star Key, Anti-Rust Acid, etc.).
Collecting and correctly grouping Evidence is one of the best ways to earn Dream Essence early and mid-game. If you’re missing a specific piece, tell me the chapter or area and I can narrow it down further.
