If you've already earned the achievement for completing your recipe book, don't worry - that won't go away!

Here's how it works

Each letter has some "standard recipes", which look like this in the recipe book when you have not yet discovered them:

Once you discover a standard recipe, it looks like this in the book:

In order to "complete your recipe book", you need to discover all of the standard recipes. The recipe count at the top of the journal shows your progress (this number may change as we make more updates):

But what is that + 4?? That shows that this player has discovered 4 hidden recipes. You may have found some secret characters already, but now we have expanded this system to include regular letters with some of the more unusual recipes. For example, if you discover a hidden recipe for A, it will appear like this in the recipe book (recipe redacted):

This way, you will be rewarded for experimenting and trying out-of-the-box ideas to form letters, but it is purely a bonus, and not a requirement to complete the book.

Do you have feedback for recipes?

Thank you to everyone who submitted recipe feedback! If you have more ideas, please continue to send them with this form.
