Guide to Collections (Hidden Chronicles)




Collections offer a new way to get exclusive items and energy rewards. Collection items appear in scenes with a special gold border around them, find the clue successfully and it will be added to your collections. Once a collection is completed you can redeem your reward through the collection screen.

Let's take a deeper look at this feature.....

Access your Collections menu by clicking the notebook icon on the toolbar



Collections

Items: When looking at a collection, you can hover your mouse over an item to see which scene it is from and enter the scene directly from the collections menu!



Rewards: You can see each collection reward on the right side, make sure to hover your mouse over them to view all of the items that you'll get from the set!



Rare Items: Like the name implies, rare items will be marked with an orange border. Bigger rewards will usually have at least one rare collection item in the set.




Finding Collection Items

Most of the time you'll be getting collection items from scene play. Collection-related clues can be easily distinguished by their special gold border in the clue list.



Once you find the collection item in a scene, you can see what you earned on the results screen




Requesting Help

At the top of the Collections menu, you can ask for friend's help to get you a free item. Once you have filled every slot, you'll have a free item reward that you can use in your collections.




Simply click the plus sign next to a collection item to add the item that you earned, this is great when you just need one more item to complete a collection.




That's all there is to it! If you have feedback or other questions about this feature, please stop by the Collection Feedback thread and we will do our best to add answers here.
