Independent reference
Order of the Sinking Star Wiki is a focused reference for Order of the Sinking Star, a single-player puzzle adventure directed by Jonathan Blow and developed by Thekla, Inc. We organize launch facts, initial worlds, mechanics, research guides, and source-backed notes so you can understand the game before buying it or find your way back into a puzzle after a break.
This is not a wiki claiming every answer. It is a deliberately structured starting point: pages are separated into database records, guides, release notes, and codes so you can see whether information is confirmed, drawn from preview coverage, or still marked as needing verification.
The database currently has 84 entries across 4 categories: 14 characters & playable roles, 58 map areas, 8 mechanics, 4 worlds. Each record keeps its own description and, where source material supports it, details such as map locations, routes, access points, or observed mechanics.
Published guides cover the opening Crossroads, the four routes, undo and restart tools, Gold Rooms, and the community map snapshot. Draft research remains separate: if a hero mechanic or edge case has not been confirmed in the current game, it is kept out of the public search index rather than presented as settled.
The news notes follow the public demo in June 2026 and the Steam launch on October 8, 2026. The launch profile records the more than 1,000 interconnected handcrafted puzzles advertised on the official Steam page, alongside publisher and platform facts.
At the moment we list 0 confirmed active codes and 0 expired codes. We do not invent reward text or put forum guesses into the active table. If a code is added later, it will be traced to an official announcement or another clearly identified source.
The overview collects the confirmed platform, release, developer, publisher, and puzzle-scale facts in one place. The database then shows the publicly described worlds, characters, mechanics, and map groups without asking you to reconstruct them from scattered posts.
Route notes, area names, mechanics, and map research are grouped so a suspended puzzle or forgotten connection is easier to look up. When a detail is still only a research observation, the page says so instead of presenting it as an official rule.
The beginner path, map overview, and structured entry pages are intended as quick anchors. They prioritize stable names, locations, and systems so you can identify where you left off before diving deeper into puzzle-specific discussion.
Every published guide and news note records its sources and update date. We keep official facts, preview coverage, and community map research separate, which makes disagreements easier to inspect rather than hiding them behind a single confident summary.
New players should begin with the game overview and beginner guide. If you want to explore before opening a guide, the world and mechanic records are arranged by area, and the map overview identifies where its counts came from.
