Until Dawn Totems

How to find missing Totems?: As you explore, you can discover Totem Artefacts. Picking up a totem and turning it around will reveal a colored butterfly and a premonition of a possible future.

The Totems are divided into 5 categories — with 6 pieces per category — namely: Death, Guidance, Loss, Danger, and Fortune.

Tip: To see which Totems you’re missing, there’s a collectibles tracker in the Main Menu’s Collectibles section. Each collectible has its own number and name listed per chapter / episode, so it’s easy to track down which one(s) you don’t have yet.

Helpful Note: Even after completing the game you can go back into each chapter / episode to find any missing Totems by choosing Episode Select. – Episode Select allows you to go back and change your decisions. You can also use episode select to save characters from dying, but will have to replay all episodes from that point on.

Does the game save each Totems you collect?: Yes, the game will automatically save the Totems you just collected if you picked up the Totem, so you don’t have to play to the end of the chapter. After picking up each collectible you can safely quit the chapter without losing collectibles progress.

Important to know before collecting: In your collectibles playthrough you must make all 8 characters survive to the end. If characters die early, then you won’t be able to pick up certain collectibles with them later on. – We’ll highlight any specifics per chapter / episode, where possible.

That said, most collectibles can still be acquired if some people die.
