Overview
A list of all those tricky anomalies and how to correctly report them! Organized by room for easy reference and includes photos so you know exactly where to look. I would like this to be a community project, so please list any anomalies you find and I will add them to the list (I know i’m missing at least three!). Enjoy!
Basics and Spoiler Alert
Are you missing anomalies and it’s driving you nuts? Well here’s a simple list to help you out because, honestly, some of the anomalies are super subtle and I don’t think anyone has posted a guide like this for the game yet.
This guide is a work in progress. I know I am missing some anomalies, so please, help a girl out and post any thing YOU have found (because it’s driving me bonkers not being able to figure out those last few). I will add update the list as time goes on. But first, Captain Obvious has an announcement to make:
*OBVIOUSLY THIS GUIDE HAS MAJOR SPOILER ALERTS*
I truly believe you should give the game a few honest goes before you read further. A large amount of this game’s appeal comes from discovering these things yourself, so use your own discretion. This guide is aimed at those who have already played quite a few times and need just a little help finding that last handful of anomalies.
Now that that’s out of the way, I’d also like to cover a few hypotheses I have about game mechanics.
- Each night is 6 hours long- from midnight to 6.
- There are 26-28 anomalies per night (this # varies a bit)
- You cannot have more than 4 anomalies active at one time or else you lose
- anomalies seem to spawn 4x an hour, 15 minutes in, 30 minutes in, 45 minutes in, and at the top of each hour.
- There is a small grace period in the first hour. I believe no anomalies spawn until 0:15
- The anomaly spawn rate seems to increase the last hour or two.
I have not been able to verify any of this, it’s purely from my own experience. Please comment if you have differing experiences and i’ll adjust as necessary.
So now without further ado- the list!

Help Expand this Guide
By no means is this a complete list, but I am currently working on adding more.
It would be super helpful of you to post in the comments if you know of an anomaly that’s not on this list. Include the room, a description of the anomaly, and screen location (bonus points if you have a screen shot!)
Constructive critique is also welcome.
Thanks for reading and happy observing!
