Boons: Clues, Interactions & Saved Progress
First distinguish a boon you have not found from one that disappeared after loading. Patch 1.0.13 fixes some boons resetting on load. For hidden interactions, ScottDev's community guide warns that a brief press can miss actions that need a sustained interaction. The clue groups below do not establish numerical effects or that every boon is required for an ending.

Progress disappeared after a load?
The official fix applies to some boons resetting. It does not name every affected boon or guarantee restoration of an already lost state. Check the version and your recorded discoveries before searching for the same location again.
Community clues by activity
The player guide groups discoveries across Dark Thicket, the Mine, Oasis, Fuel Shortage, Data Rush and overworld interactions. It includes environmental clues and actions that differ from normal resource collection. Use the activity page to choose where to explore; exact locations are in the original guide.
Strength and missing melody
For the melody-related path, check whether the interaction was held long enough before concluding the object is inactive. The dedicated guides reveal the location separately, so you can keep this overview spoiler-light.
Do not infer effects from names
A name such as Strength is not a sourced percentage. We have not transcribed unexplained image-only effect values into formulas. Boon effect magnitude, stacking and exact ending dependencies remain outside this verified data set.
Put the plan to work
Track four endings and discovered secrets in a spoiler-safe local checklist without invented requirements.
