Update 6 and the collectible list
The new patch does not announce new collectibles. The guide continues to list 16 pickups and five ranking trophies; Update 6's save fixes can affect stored objects, but they do not prove an older missing collectible will return.
What is confirmed
- Starting the collection unlocks after the first pickup
- Collector is a hidden achievement for filling the display case
- Steam currently lists 49 total achievements
- The community location thread remains partial, so this page does not invent a final count
Scan each job before hand-in
- Create a fresh manual save.
- Finish mandatory objectives but do not submit the job yet.
- Walk the perimeter, shelves, window ledges, benches and hidden rooms.
- Follow yellow exclamation marks or interactable highlights.
- Pick up one collectible and confirm it stores before moving on.
- Return home and inspect the display case when the job allows it.
Slammer coin will not put away
A Discord player reported being forced to hold the Slammer coin without being able to store it. Treat this as a community-reported interaction bug, not a confirmed universal blocker.
- Do not overwrite the pre-pickup save.
- Try the current store or interact prompt once.
- Step away from nearby props and retry.
- Reload the preserved slot if the item remains locked to the hand.
- Record the job and prompt before reporting.
A simple no-spoiler tracker
- Job or location
- Room or outdoor zone
- Clue or nearby landmark
- Collected in this save?
- Visible in the home display case?
- Screenshot filename or timestamp
When a collectible seems missing
First confirm the item is not already in the display case and that you are checking the same save. Then revisit the last known location from a preserved slot. Do not delete LocalLow data or download another player's save merely to force the achievement.

| Dirty Job | Video Cassette | Blue worktable in the cloud-and-sun wallpaper room |
| A Small Favor | Oil Lamp | Box beside crates in the locked basement unit; doormat clue opens it |
| Turn It Up | Floppy Disk | Desk in the barred office |
| God Bless You | Coin with the Pope | Small table beside the pulpit, near books—not the altar |

Five ranking trophies
The remaining five display items are trophies for successive ranking thresholds. They appear on the bench in front of the player's home; pick them up promptly and check the display case.
- 5th place
- 4th place
- 3rd place
- 2nd place
- 1st place
Can you return for a missed collectible?
Replay only a job that appears in Job Finder. We do not claim every mission is replayable; a manual save from before hand-in remains the safest recovery point.
Picked up but missing from the display case
One recent report describes a collectible appearing in the case only after a later job or load. First check the same save after one ordinary location transition or one reload. Do not overwrite your only good slot or delete LocalLow.
Window Replacement or Spring Toy is missing
A recent report indicates that Window Replacement may not appear immediately, blocking access to its Spring Toy. Preserve the current save and continue ordinary available jobs. Abandoning jobs to force a reroll is community advice, not a confirmed fix.
Update 4 fixes collectibles disappearing completely from the cabinet
The official fix covers collectibles disappearing completely from the Collectible Cabinet. It does not publish new locations or change the documented count of 21; a delayed display or unavailable job remains a separate diagnosis.
