Tidy Up the Arcane Library

Second-floor books (work in progress)

The upstairs stacks are real, busy, and still being documented by players worldwide. What you see below is the cleanest information we can share today—never padded with fake certainty.

How to use this page

Treat every partial label as an invitation to double-check in your own save. Write down titles you confirm, compare them with friends, and enjoy the hunt—this is the same community spirit that mapped the first floor. When in doubt, rely on in-game map codes, blue glow feedback, and abilities like Shelf Guide while documentation catches up.

Dropping books to the first floor remains a smart logistics trick: park a table under your favorite balcony toss spot, then shelve downstairs in batches. Pair that habit with the key guide so Sprint and Jump make upstairs rotations feel as smooth as ground-level laps.

Second-floor questions

Is there a second-floor book list?

The second floor is in the game, but a complete public index is still patchy. Our second-floor page lists what we can confirm and marks the rest clearly.

Can I drop books between floors?

You can drop books from the second floor to tables below to avoid extra stair trips—handy once you learn landing spots.

Does the guide work on Steam Deck?

Controls are PC-first, but many players report a comfortable handheld experience. Rebind if a face button feels awkward for interact.
