Browse possible checks, rewards and settings. What appears in your game depends on your World options.

Source catalog Release Animal Well APWorld 0.5.4 · release asset updated 2026-05-06APWorld 0.5.4

The release APWorld defines 240 candidate checks: 100 are active with standard options, and 140 are optional (115 fruit, 16 bunny and 9 candle checks). The maximum candidate count depends on the movement settings for the Disc Spike area. The published overview still describes check and goal totals as approximate/planned; this page follows the 0.5.4 source. The release asset has two file-content differences from the pinned tag archive, but the item, location, option and access tables match. No code, test, client or game session was executed.

Actions and milestones that can send a check to your multiworld.

240 locationsDefault marks checks from configurations selected by standard options; the generated set can still vary with logic and seed.

Playing with others

A solo exploration save participates in the multiworld. Native shared-world co-op is not part of this integration.

Known scope and limitations

  • Play vanilla first if you want to preserve its discoveries: this randomizer exposes secret locations and item mechanics.
  • Install the APWorld, open the game at its title screen, then connect the ANIMAL WELL client. The client is part of the setup, not an optional tracker.
  • Linux instructions run both the Windows game and Windows Archipelago through Wine. Native Linux client support is not claimed.
  • Some checks intentionally require Warp to Hub or quitting and continuing to escape. Follow the guide rather than assuming every pickup has a walking exit.
  • The guide warns about rare chest-related client failures, a Mock Disc/ghost problem after reconnecting, and using the Remote near the bunny mural too early potentially requiring a save reset.
  • Several unsupported options remain unavailable. The older overview says alternate goals are planned, but the tagged 0.5.4 options already implement Egg Hunt.
