Before I Forget 100% Walkthrough Guide

Before I Forget is a pretty simple game but there’s some achievements you can easily miss, this guide will make sure you get everything.

There’s more notes and stuff you can interact with just to get more background and story bits, that’s not covered here to keep everything short but my advice would be to interact with all the objects you see as the story deserves it!

One sheet music is reported glitchy in some forums, this walkthrough will have you interact with it on every possible occasion just to make sure it’s counted and the achievement pops correctly.

Eek, blurry! Walk forward and get your glasses to make everything better.
Now open the door and go through the corridor, follow it and enter the first room on your right.
–
–
In here interact with the framed picture on the desk for photo.

Go back out, a door will open on your right, go through it.
–
–
Interact with the concert programme in front of the bed and another photo on a night table to the right of it, near the alarm clock.
Turn around and get the note in front of the window, then leave this room.

As soon as you leave do a 180 and open the door to the bedroom again, only this time it’ll lead to a closet.

Exit the closet, turn left and open the first door on your right to reveal…another closet?

Now, you’ll have to do this “go left, open the first door on the right” once or twice more until you finally find a bathroom and get a small cutscene.

Turn left and switch off the annoying alarm clock.
Follow the left wall and enter the closet here.
–
–
Sit down on the pillow inside.
Now for collectibles interact with the letter in front of you with the “grand hotel”, the “aloha hawaii” postcard just to the left of it (there’s writing on its back).
Now look right for a “palais wien” letter and another letter up and to the left of it, this one is marked “hotel ritz” but it might be kinda hard to see.

Now turn around to get the option to stand up and do so, only to turn around towards the pillow again. Open the drawer on the right to get our first sheet music. (This is the glitchy one, I’ll have you use it several times as we move forward)[/b]
–
–
You can now leave this room and enter the next one on your right.
–
–
Approach the phone that’s on the shelves on the right to listen to a voicemail then get the “india” postcard from the lower shelf.

Now sit on the office chair here for a musical interlude.
Once done turn to the PC and choose “check emails”, make sure to click each of the four emails you see as each one is a different collectible, then log out.
There’s a drawer just to the left of the keyboard, open it for another letter.

You can now go to the corner to the left of the pc and interact with the star map here.
–
–
When you’re in control go towards the bottom left to find “pegasus”.
Go left from pegasus and make sure to pass over “markab” and “alkenib” so they light up from purple to cyan.
–
–
Then go up and do the same for two other stars.
–
–
Once done simply go up a bit to find Andromeda, light it up for a small cutscene that’ll unlock the FROM THERE TO ANDROMEDA achievement.
.

.
You can now leave this room, go right and to the left to enter a bathroom.
–

–
Enter it so that Suni remarks “not in here” and get a cutscene.
Once that’s done keep moving down this hallway, ignore the black hole on your right despite Suni’s comments and go through the door at the end here to find the kitchen.
–
–
In here turn left, interact with the yellow “buy peaches” note on the fridge then open the cupboard to its right and interact with the tin can.
–
–
This’ll unlock an achievement, WE ALWAYS NEED MORE PEACHES.
.

.
Turn around and enter the open space to find the dining room.
–
–
Interact with the photo on your right, you can see it in the screenshot above.

Turn towards the window and you’ll see a big drawer, open it for a birthday card then pick the photo on the right, you can see both in the following screenshot.
–
–
To the right of the furniture with the previous photo there’ll be a box labeled “mementos”, look inside for another card and plane tickets.
–
–
You’ll get small cutscene, DO NOT move away from this box yet as there’s a cheeky sheet music hiding in plain sight just to the right of the card.
–
–
You can now turn around and interact with the telescope then rotate it so it’s at eye level to start another star seeking sequence.

From Taurus go east/ notheast, following some big starts until a golden pulse leads you to the right stars, this is how it looks when you’re getting close.
–
–
From “the horns” just go a bit southeast towards the pulsing star.

For the next constellation just go west until you see the pulsing gold again then follow it north, as tasked you then just have to go north for three more stars in a group, easy peasy and it’ll net you the SHOW ME ONE WITH A STORY achievement.
.

.
As soon as you regain control look down for a chessboard, interact with it for a musical interlude, once done leave this room.

Again, some sources say the sheet music in the closet can glitch and recommend interacting with it again to make sure it counts, to be on the safe side do so by entering the first door on your right, go in the closet with the red pillow and use the music sheet in the drawer.

Now go to the end of the hallway and into the kitchen again, in here let’s get another achievement simply by interacting with the kettle to the left of the window for the last musical interlude and the ALWAYS ONE STEP AHEAD achievement.
.

.
To the right of the window is a radio, use it and tune it to channel 106 to have the rooms change.

See the telescope? Snatch the “congratulations on yor new home” card just to the left of it and another card to the right of it, near the boxes.
Don’t go through the door or that small hall yet! There’s one more card on the chair to the right of it.
–
–
And two more cards on the fireplace that’s just to your right.
These are actually the last ones, so you’ll get the JUST A SHORT NOTE achievement for your trouble.
.

.
You’re done here so go through the door for a cutscene and SO MANY GOOD FRIENDS.
.

.

After the 1970 flashback you’ll be back in the dinner room, interact with the dinner on the table for a small cutscene.

Now go to the kitchen, grab the teacup from the floor and rotate it so that you can see the bottom for another star seeking sequence.

Go up north and a bit west then simply follow the prompts to get the I WANT TO KNOW ALL THE STARS achievement.
.

.
You’ll end up in the closet. Interact once again with the sheet music in the drawer here just to be extra safe, we don’t want to replay the whole game in case it’s glitched!.

Exit this room,go right, down the hallway and interact with the radio. This’ll open up a looong hallway bathed in red light, simply go through it and keep moving forward as things change (check the titles on the walls though, wow!) and you eventually find a door you can open to find this room.
–
–
Wait for the dialogue to be over so you can interact with things again.
Use the record player here to have more things appear in the room then grab the card on the piano seat, oh gosh… (you can interact with this card again to see the front btw)

There’s two music sheets on the piano, interact with both of them to get an achievement, THAT PIECE ABOUT THE STARS.
.

.
Now turn around so that the piano is behind you and you’ll see a newspaper that counts as a photo on a table and unlock WE STOLE A MOMENT IN SAN FRANCISCO.
.

.
You’ll get a long, and sad, audio cutscene; exit through the double doors once they open.

Simply move through the garden until you reach the end and let the credits scroll to get NOW I REMEMBER once they’re over!
