Plan your next Tidy Up History session

Our independent guide examines each documented activity in Tidy Up History, offering observations that help you track progress without assuming hidden mechanics. By noting patterns in cleaning, organization, skeleton assembly, skill growth and area unlocking, you can plan a steady restoration path.

01 / THE GUIDE

Room‑by‑Room Cleaning

Select a single room, record the amount of dirt and clutter, then clean until the space feels tidy. Compare before and after states to evaluate efficiency and decide if the same method works elsewhere.

  • Work on one room at a time to see clear progress.
  • Compare before‑and‑after visuals to gauge cleaning effectiveness.

02 / THE GUIDE

Artifact Categorization

Group artifacts by type—fossils, tools, artwork—before placing them. This visual sorting can reveal natural exhibit themes and reduce time spent searching for correct locations.

  • Group similar items before placement to speed identification.
  • Refer to any in‑game notes for correct exhibit locations.

03 / THE GUIDE

Skeleton Piece Tracking

Create a simple checklist of required fossil pieces for each dinosaur. Mark each piece as you collect it, ensuring no component is missed during assembly.

  • Keep a list of collected fossil pieces to avoid missing sections.
  • Match assembled sections with reference images if available.

04 / THE GUIDE

XP and Ability Mapping

Log the XP earned from each restoration task and note which abilities unlock at each threshold. This mapping helps you prioritize tasks that yield useful upgrades.

  • Track XP earned from each task to see when new abilities unlock.
  • Observe how each new ability changes the speed of restoration.

05 / THE GUIDE

Key Hunt Strategy

When exploring a restored room, systematically check corners, shelves and display cases for keys. Recording typical key locations can speed future locked‑room discoveries.

  • Keep an eye out for keys as you explore the museum.
  • Note the location of locked doors for later revisits.
