Follow the story
Track quests, prerequisites and recordings with spoiler controls.
Use the connected quest records
Open the quest directory to inspect a quest’s objectives, prerequisites and rewards. Follow the connected quest links when you need to understand what comes next. Source aliases can exist alongside player-facing entries; a route name alone does not establish that an extra quest is obtainable.
Reveal details when you need them
The progress tracker keeps story details hidden until you choose to reveal them. Mark a whole quest complete or keep notes about unfinished work. Objective checkboxes are available when captured objectives are present. Your notes and completion never enter a shared search or map link.
Check the patch context
Permafrost is in Early Access, and quest behavior can change between updates. The database records a source build rather than claiming every objective has been verified in your installed version. Keep a note if your game differs, and preserve a workspace backup before a major update.
Quest help
Co-op: let the host advance the story
Have the host perform main quest steps and Skinwalker quests. This is the developers’ current advice for avoiding co-op progression problems.

Breaking the Radio Silence: church roof key
Pick up Anna’s key individually, rather than using Take All, and equip it before opening the roof door. Keep it for that door. If it is absent from both your inventory and the reward chest, talk to Anna for a replacement.

The Way Home: missing blueprints or a locked reward box
Press Space to skip the end of Skinwalker’s dialogue. In co-op, have the host do the Skinwalker quests and open the reward box alone.

High Frequency: build the base radio first
Build the radio at your base before repairing the tower. A tower repaired before the quest starts may not register. High Frequency can now finish while Hopes and Dreams is still active.

Lunar clothing: study the blueprints first
Study the Lunar blueprints from Where It All Began before giving them to Jeremy. At the Tailoring Bench, the Lunar set is labelled Permafrost; craft that set for the quest.

Ethan’s Past: use a Scrap Axe on the planks
If the wooden planks will not break, use a Scrap Axe. The developers say iron and stone axes currently fail on this quest obstacle.

House Camp Flipper: fast-travel unlock is broken
The craftable fast-travel point recipe is intended as a reward from the improvised radio tower near Finn, but the developers still list its unlock as broken. This issue concerns the buildable point; existing settlement travel is separate.
