The cycle is broken, and nothing is under control — meaning danger comes from multiple directions as you push through three chapters.

Getting through Chapter 1

Step

In short Chapter 1 is built around returning to the studio, exploring Animation Alley, and slipping past the Ink Demon while flipping switches in the Reception Area.

The chapter opens the moment you return to the studio, and you automatically earn the Welcome Back badge on your first visit. From there, several tasks branch off — some tied to the main path, others requiring closer attention to your surroundings.

Return to the studio the Welcome Back badge drops automatically on your first run.
Find Bendy's lost toy completing this earns What's Wrong Bendy?
Enter Animation Alley crossing into the area triggers The Animation Alley badge.
Check the lockers in Animation Alley the Gent Pipe is hidden inside one of them, rewarding you with Makeshift Marauder.
Flip the switches in the Reception Area without being caught successfully avoiding the Ink Demon here earns Demon Dodger.
Escape King Widow getting away from this enemy earns Moment of Despair.

Hidden content in Chapter 1

Tips

In short Several badges in Chapter 1 sit off the critical path.

The main route gets you through the chapter, but a handful of things are easy to walk past.

Tips worth knowing

Look for the Arts for the Lost somewhere in the chapter — finding them earns Lost Arts.
Track down Ollie's easter egg to earn the DO IT. badge.
Find Heidi to earn You did it!
If the Ink Demon catches you for the first time, you earn The Dark Puddles Consumes.

Survival moments in Chapters 2 and 3

Warn

In short Chapters 2 and 3 each have at least one high-stakes moment where staying alive is the only requirement for the badge.

Unlike some badge conditions that depend on finding objects, the rewards here come down to surviving specific events.

Worth watching out for

The sky train crashes make it through the event and you earn Railway Resilient.

An ink hand attacks in a river scene surviving it earns River Problem.
