Nothing Strange Here Quest Checklist
Track the launch-confirmed side quests and story milestones without spoilers or unverified routes and article outcomes.
Steam’s launch achievements confirm eight distinct side-quest goals. This checklist tells you what the finished quest must accomplish without inventing the route, starting NPC or article consequences.
| Confirmed goal | Related Steam achievement |
|---|---|
| Reunite the band | The band’s back together! |
| Find the missing carrots | They were alive?! |
| Investigate the tale of the Glowing Deer | The story was true. |
| Help Lurchbert decorate the cemetery | This looks so much better! |
| Help Ellony find love | Is she shaped like a heart? |
| Help rebuild Worm Village | Worm People and Worm Looking People.. |
| Investigate the teenagers’ late-night activities | Harmless Activities. |
| Find the hidden treasure | Is there a gnome trapped in there? |
“Bennie the Journalist Completionist.” unlocks for finishing all side quests. Current public evidence does not say whether a side quest can be missed or whether every article style counts equally, so this page does not recommend a forced order.
The main-story achievements also point to entering a closed mine, finding the founder’s cabin, reaching an island and choosing whether to expose or keep the Secret. Detailed story instructions stay off this page to protect both accuracy and spoiler control.
