Shift Survival Checklist
Tick items off as you handle them. Your progress is saved on this device, so you can leave and come back mid-shift.
Shift 1 — Tutorial
Shift 2 — Story Characters & First Enemies
Shift 3 — Taser & Supplies Shop
Shift 4 — First Ambulance Event
Shift 6 — Last Warning
Shift 10-18 — Liz's Quest
Every Shift — Sanity Management
How this tool works
This checklist is built from the Shifts and Sanity entries in our mechanics data, plus every anomaly in the Anomalies database whose wiki entry names a specific shift it first appears on (Barney, Ratthew, Ron from Accounting, the Mass of Eyes, the Head Banger, and the story characters tied to Liz's and Officer Duckman's questlines). It's organized into sections by shift number — early shifts (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and the Liz questline window of 10-18) get their own section covering what's new that shift, and a standing "Every Shift" section covers ongoing sanity management that applies throughout a run.
Ticking a box saves its state to this browser's local storage immediately — nothing is sent to a server, so progress is private to this device and browser, and it will survive a page reload or closing the tab. The progress bar at the top counts ticked items against the 22 total across every section. Use "Reset progress" to clear every checkbox and start over, for example at the start of a new run.
Items that reference a specific anomaly link to that anomaly's full entry for the complete behavior and response write-up. This checklist covers shift pacing and story beats, not moment-to-moment identification — for that, use the Anomaly Checker once you're mid-encounter.
