• TIME is the exact in-game time that the event starts.


• If TIME has a '+' after it, the event starts at TIME and goes on forever, everyday and every event onward... or its end-time is unknown/unexplained. Technically a permanent/semi-permanent change of game state.


• DURATION will only be for time-sensitive events that can expire. If this box is filled, it's one with a time limit.


• TIME and DURATION will always be In-Game Time by default. If it's Real Time, it will be listed as 'IRL'. (The first event is a good example)


• LOCATION refers to wherever you need to be. While this also technically refers to the location of the event itself, this is typically meant to tell you where to go.


• If a box is empty, it means there's no specific answer, likely meaning 'anywhere', 'anytime', etc.


• REQUIREMENTS refers to what you need to do to trigger the event or to proceed through it. This may include optional actions/items if you wish to affect the event or world in some way.


• Some Days can have more than one Story Mode event, indicated as "Event # / #".


• SOLUTIONs will tell you how to complete the event, in case you know what's happening but not how to proceed. Technically a mini-spoiler.


• Some SOLUTIONs will be paired with SPOILERs (i.e. "SPOILER 2 / SOLUTION"); this means the SPOILER is bound to the SOLUTION, and is unavoidable.

Meteor Shower

The breaker in your basement will shut off.

This is the game’s way of showing you what happens if a transformer runs out of power, without actually draining them.

Head downstairs to reset the switches.

(In rare circumstances: You may have actually fully drained a transformer before, during, or after this event. If that happens, look outside at the main power junction, look at which power line is electrifying, and follow that to the downed transformer to fix it.)

This is the game's method of introducing Meta Paranoia. (See 'Meta Paranoia' in the Glossary for more details.)

Meta Paranoia will activate at exactly 23:28, almost ad infinitum.

Meta Paranoia will not deactivate until you stand between the PC chair and Mainframe, triggering the event proper.

A sound will be heard from the vents.

While scanning signals, you can get a signal of an Ariral Warp Arrow. Fully processing this signal to Level 3 will reveal Spoiler 2 within the signal.

See 'Arirals' (Spoilers) on the Glossary page for more details.

“We come in peace.”

Reputation is primarily affected by either providing items or taking them.

ROMEO and SIERRA satellites will go down, baiting the player toward them.

Between the two satellites within the Valley of Flowers is a small white alien object.

This spot is the Ariral picnic.

Leaving food here, especially unopened Shrimp Packs, will raise your reputation with the Arirals.

Taking anything from this location, including things you give them yourself, will reduce your reputation with them.

These actions will affect how your game plays out for the rest of the story, including but not limited to events & perceived difficulty. They can of course be affected later.

Arirals are now properly active, and will attempt to eat shrimps that aren’t in containers if your rep is low enough.

At this time, all the birds in the array will stop singing, permanently.

Now the game begins.

You’ll scan a signal that’s gigantic in file-size, and will need to finish downloading it before you can get new signals.

This will take a while.

Spoiler 2 reveals what exactly the object is.

The signal will be of a super-structure surrounding a wormhole.

You can now scan a signal of 2 Ariral ships.

Level 3 processing reveals alien conversation.

Meta Paranoia will activate at exactly 00:39, almost ad infinitum.

Meta Paranoia will not deactivate until you stand between the PC chair and Mainframe, triggering the event proper.

A sound will be heard from the server vents.

You can now scan another signal of 2 Ariral ships.

Processing the signal to L3 reveals alien text, as well as an image of your room.

Your emails will be spammed from "user" with the subject "blank", each email containing scrambled text and # symbols.

The text within the emails reads "OUTSIDE".

An Ariral Warp Arrow will be hovering outside, and can be seen from the signal room.

Taking a picture of the Arrow will net you a decent amount of rep with the Arirals.

However, attempting to approach the Arrow will result in its early departure.

The ship will leave regardless at 06:49.

Pink wisps will swarm the compound.

Stop staring at the radar. Go about your day.

Your friends (Dr. Enara + Dr. Maxine) stowed a pack of Kel's favourite sushi on the delivery drone and sent it to you. The drone also has a letter written by them addressed to you.

The radar will ping a few times within the Construction Site, indicating that you should visit there.

In the top room of the double-decker building is a flickering lantern and a notebook. The contents of the book are an excerpt from 'I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream'.

Touching and/or reading the book triggers the event, in which an Ariral will bash in the door and try to slap you.

Either holding the door for a while or putting a pack of shrimp in front of the door will stop the attack, the latter of which will improve your reputation.

You can also pre-empt this encounter by leaving the shrimp in front of the door before reading.

Or... just take the hit.

The Arirals begin to build a treehouse. Victor will fail once, baiting you toward it, then again on Day 20 to make you see the progress.

This is a new permanent location for the Arirals, a permanent way to increase/decrease rep, and a way to interact with them and their items (with care).

TR_3 will fail.

A cloaked Ariral ship will appear above the base, as it emits an anti-gravity field within the base that will lift all objects (aside from Kel) off the ground.

The ship will disappear after 2 hours.

You can photo it with the camera for 15 rep.

From now on, there's a random chance for the Arirals to warp near you for a bit and then disappear, when standing on the tower.

Ena will send you some homemade croissants on the drone, as well as a letter.

An Ariral will get spooked and drop their gun and shrimp on the ground as they run away.

(Good) Returning it to the treehouse will increase your rep a decent amount.

(Neutral) Leaving it on the ground will result in an Ariral retrieving it some time later.

(Bad) Keeping it will result in an Ariral attempting to take it back by force.

An Ariral will leave a trail of brownies which leads to a larger pile of brownies and a note which will have different messages depending on your reputation.

A good reputation will result in another note and a doll of the player being made and placed at the treehouse.

A bad reputation will result in the player being trolled... ack, ack, ack.

The Rozitals will drop an obelisk near the base. Approaching the obelisk (required to continue) reveals a warning of impending doom.

Big bullet from sky = Warning of danger

Top pictures = You approaching danger

Bottom pictures = You running away from danger

3 new signals can be found, and are required for new signals to be scanned.

Spoiler 2 reveals the signal types.

The signals are of different angles of an Ariral satellite.

Everything will turn black (aside from artificial lights) for 66 seconds. You will receive multiple emails during this time.

The first two emails are from Dr. Bao, revealing that the ASO is unaware of what's happening.

The final email is likely from the Arirals (hashtag-covered text), which says "SORRY", indicating that they likely accidentally either blotted out the sun, or *warped* the sun somewhere else temporarily, etc.

You'll download multiple signals, each of various angles and locations of the base. Unlike normal signals, the main images here will be on the download panel, and will be live broadcasting of those locations.

After downloading the 4th signal, a warning will read "Do not look into the locker".

This is the game's method of introducing you to 'Forbiddens'. (See 'Forbiddens' on the Glossary page for details.)

Looking will pre-save before continuing and finishes the event.

Not looking will eventually finish the event.

There will be a final signal, which will auto-download rapidly when you find it.

Look

...or don't.

:3

From now on, you can come across a signal of a pyramid in space.

The object is a Rozital ship/mech.

The large pyramid Rozital from the previous signal will have landed, and it will begin to collect yellow wisps across the compound. The Rozital will remain until all yellow wisps are collected, then it will depart. When each one is collected, yellow wisps can no longer spawn for the rest of the game.

The Rozital is non-hostile, and is likely the one that sent the obelisk warning of the wisps.

A missable achievement is possible:

You can be picked up by a yellow wisp, then as it's about to rip you apart, the Rozital can pick both you and the wisp up, removing it, and saving your life.

TR_3 will fail, baiting the player toward it.

Rozital Scouts will be in the area of TR_3 and will branch out across the compound, scanning everything in sight.

The Scouts will attempt to scan you.

Allowing them to will make them peaceful, as they're most likely looking for any remaining wisps that strayed.

Running from them will result in a run for your life, since they won't know what you are and will attempt to kill you.

O-Kerfurs will also be attacked. (See 'Kerfur' on the Glossary page for more details.)

The exterior doors will stop working, forcing you to take the Garage door outside.

In the garage, a Soltomia Rozital will be cleaning your ATV, likely as an apology for the recent events involving their wisp cleanup.

Upon entering the garage, the Soltomia will retreat, dropping its Giant Sponge on the ground.

This sponge can be kept, and is a significant improvement to the default one.

A Grey saucer will be just outside the base hovering above the garage. (See 'Greys' on the Glossary page for more details.)

The saucer can be watched for an extended period using pre-placed cameras.

Viewing the saucer without cameras will result in it fleeing.

A Rozital mothership will fly slowly across the compound.

Purple beams of light near The Hole can be seen from the base.

Approaching The Hole will be dangerous as it's guarded by several miniature Rozitals called Kavotia, a sort of autonomous defense drone.

Reaching The Hole proper will make the Kavotia cease fire and become non-hostile.

An Igetis Rozital is 'repairing' The Hole.

At some point, the Igetis will toss a capsule. The capsule will usually fall into The Hole, or rarely, it may miss and land outside.

If you retrieve the capsule, the "YOINK" achievement will be given. This is true whether you catch it midair, or reach the bottom of The Hole later to pick it up.

Grey saucers will drop meat near the base, specifically near the substation.

O-Kerfurs will be under the effects of EMP until the Greys leave.

Grey saucers will drop meat near the base, specifically near the window in the parking lot.

O-Kerfurs will be under the effects of EMP until the Greys leave.

Grey saucers will drop an exploded jeep near the base, implying that the meat was from the corpses of whoever was in the jeep.

O-Kerfurs will be under the effects of EMP until the Greys leave.

TR_3 will fail, baiting the player toward it.

O-Kerfurs will be under the effects of EMP if they approach TR_3.

The ATV will be under the effects of EMP from the start of the event.

Fixing TR_3 will reveal 2 Greys at the bottom of the hill.

Approaching them will ragdoll you, and they will leave early.

Following from afar will show them walking North until they eventually disappear.

In either case, you will ragdoll, and Meta Paranoia will temporarily be active.

TR_1 will fail, baiting you toward it.

O-Kerfurs will be under the effects of EMP during the event.

Once you're near TR_1, Grey saucers will fly by.

A box will slowly fall to the ground near the transformer, and will open to reveal Spoiler 3.

A Grey Firetank will emerge from the box and attempt to attack you. Boss music ensues.

You can either destroy it with whatever equipment you have or know how to make, run away and let it run out of fuel, or, if your Reputation is high, sprint to the Treehouse.

'War... war never changes...'

Grey Boars and Firetanks will invade, attacking the Ariral Treehouse.
