Tick Town Collectible Totals
Use the table above as the checklist. Counts here are a working first pass for the opening region and will be updated as the remaining locations are confirmed.
Recommended Route Order
Sweep the plaza, climb the gears, then finish at the Temporal Anchor. Do not start on rooftops if you still drop the grapple.
Abilities You Need Before Cleanup
Double jump, dash and a reliable grapple are enough for a first cleanup. Come back with air dash if a Coin sits behind a giant gear.
Tick Town Collectible Locations
Clock Tower Plaza
Coins
Plaza Coins sit on stall roofs and beside the first Temporal gadget. Jump, dash, grab — no hidden wall required.
Echoes
One Echo is behind the fountain-side crates. If you hear the audio cue and cannot see the pickup, look one ledge up.
Music Boxes
The first Music Box is in a side alcove off the plaza, not on the Clock Tower climb. Return it to Arpeggio later; picking it up is enough for now.
Upper Gears and Neon Rooftops
Coins
Ride the giant gears, then air dash onto the neon truss.
Coin #7 — Behind the Giant Gear
Stand on the inner tooth of the large gear, wait for it to rotate toward the wall gap, then dash through. The Coin sits on a hidden ledge, not on the gear itself.
If You Fall: Fastest Reset Route
Drop to the plaza spawn, grapple the first yellow point, skip the side shops, and ride the same gear again. Do not walk the full Tick Town intro.
Upgrade Gears
Two Gears live on this climb. Spend them as soon as you land — see the upgrade order.
Temporal Anchor Area
Stained Glass
The pane is above the Anchor platform. Grapple the hook behind the neon sign, then ledge-grab.
Lost Kittens
The kitten hides under a stair landing near the Anchor. Crouch / roll to reach it.
Tick Town Achievements
Break the Temporal Anchor in Tick Town
Attack the Anchor until it breaks. It is a story-adjacent object, but the achievement is easy to walk past if you only follow objective markers.
FAQ
Can I 100% Tick Town on my first visit?
You can grab the Temporal Anchor and most plaza pickups immediately. Rooftop Coins and some Upgrade Gears are faster after air dash feels comfortable.
Where is the Temporal Anchor?
In Tick Town, on the critical path toward the Clock Tower. Destroy it for the achievement before you leave the region.
