Editorial Policy
Last verified · TSC2 Wiki
Every factual claim on this wiki carries an origin and a date. Solutions are cross-checked before publication and re-checked after patches. Anything Frogwares has not announced is written as unannounced rather than filled in with an estimate.
The three confidence markers
| Marker | Means | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Official | Stated by Frogwares — store listing, official site, or the studio's own FAQ thread | ERC crates need an activator pen |
| Cross-checked | Confirmed against several independent walkthroughs of the same build, with the date recorded | The obelisk symbol order |
| Not announced | Frogwares has published nothing. We do not estimate | The number of endings |
A fourth category — reported by a named outlet — is used inline when a figure comes from one publication rather than from the studio, for example the platinum completion estimate.
What we will not do
- Invent detail to look comprehensive. A shorter page that is right beats a longer one that is guessing.
- Copy unsourced claims from other sites. Several ending descriptions and system explanations circulating for this game cannot be traced to any first-hand source.
- Restate a moving number without a date. Review aggregates change; our score snapshots say when they were taken.
- Present estimates as facts. Install sizes, completion times and collectible totals are labelled by origin.
How patches are handled
Frogwares has been updating the game actively since release. When a significant patch lands:
- Solution pages — codes and puzzles — are re-checked first, because they are the pages a wrong answer hurts most.
- Anything that changed is corrected and the page's verification date is updated.
- Pages describing known issues are reconciled against the studio's current published list.
Codes and symbol orders in this game are authored rather than randomised per save, so a change means a patch, not a variation between players.
Sources
Every page ends with the sources used to build it. Primary sources are Frogwares' own material: the Steam store page, the studio's official FAQ and known-issues thread, and Frogwares Support. Secondary sources are named editorial outlets, cited on the pages that rely on them.
The complete list of confirmed facts and open questions is also published in machine-readable form at llms.txt, so AI search engines quoting this site can see the same boundary a reader can.
Corrections and contributors
Corrections are welcome and acted on. Use the contact page, ideally with your platform, your game version and a screenshot. We re-check, update, and re-date the page; contributors who help materially are credited on the page they fixed.
If we get something wrong, the correction is made on the page itself rather than buried in a changelog — the page's verification date is the record.
Independence
Advertising, where present, pays for hosting and has no influence on coverage. We do not accept payment for placement, we do not run affiliate links to grey-market key resellers, and pages about trainers and mods deliberately explain risks without linking to downloads.
Sources
Every fact on this page was checked against first-party material on August 22, 2026. Solutions were cross-checked against the build 1.0 (launch build).
