Well Dweller Story Page Locations: Find All 23

Well Dweller has 23 collectible story pages: nine for The Witch's Bargain, eight for The Dollmaker and six for The Lookout Tower. Open the Pages menu and identify the unfinished book first, then use its routes below. At 22/23, the book counter narrows your search to nine, eight or six locations instead of the whole kingdom.

Choose The Witch's Bargain, The Dollmaker or The Lookout Tower. For one remaining pickup, jump to the missing-page checks.

Prepare a return trip around your abilities

Use Tent Travel to reach a named tent, then follow the connected-room directions. Bring Slingshot, Climb and Hover for a broad cleanup pass. Endless Climb helps with the long connector shaft and late routes; Water Vessel opens the underwater approach. The last castle route also requires access through the seven-Golden-Feather gate.

Treat these as a practical return-trip loadout. A page can sit in an easy room reached through an earlier ability gate. If your current obstacle is the approach, use ability unlocks before retrying the pickup itself.

The W, D and T labels below are this guide's checklist IDs, not page numbers in the game. Match book + region + landmark. The Lookout Tower book has pages outside the tower, and one connector pickup is described as The Well in one source and the Bog–Drains tunnel in another.

Combine nearby checks when several books are short

Choose a tent that serves more than one unfinished route, then record each pickup separately:

• Hunter's Cabin central tent: W2 uses the upper crate room; D1 follows the lower return passage. Completing one exit leaves the other worth checking.
• Gravenvalley tent: W3 is the bell-operated crossing; T3 takes the Ticket Office branch. A page near the bell does not clear the hidden space above the office.
• Lookout Tower bottom tent: pair T4's upward platform ride with T5's western loop before moving to another region.
• Dollmaker's House central tent: compare D5's puzzle room and D6's high western route, then check your side of D7's lever gate. The other lever starts from Burial Vault's left tent.

This groups return visits by starting point. Use your book counters to skip a route you have already completed.

The Witch's Bargain: nine pages

Check Night Garden ×1, Hunter's Cabin ×1, Gravenvalley ×1, Midnight Drench ×2, Desiccated Castle ×3 and Queen's Castle ×1. Completing this book earns The First-Born Daughter.

W1 — Night Garden: moving-spike alcove

Use the starting Well as your map reference. Find the moving-platform room roughly five rooms east and one below it. Cross the first platform group, then inspect the side alcove with moving spikes for the page. Finish checking that recess before continuing along the main platform route.

W2 — Hunter's Cabin: upper-right crates

From the central tent, take the upper connection, then its lower-left exit. In the next room, climb the stacked crates toward the upper-right corner. This Witch page is a different pickup from the Dollmaker page on the moving-crate return route below.

W3 — Gravenvalley: bell-operated platform

Go three rooms east of the Gravenvalley tent. Reach the bell from its right-hand side, activate it and use the moving platform to cross toward the page. Position yourself for the crossing before ringing; the bell is part of the route, rather than a collectible marker.

W4 — Midnight Drench: rooftops and hidden right wall

Start from the upper Midnight Drench tent. Follow the rising eastern branch and continue east to the sloping rooftops. Cross the roofs and inspect the right-hand wall for the concealed continuation. Keep this rooftop pickup separate from the bubble route in W5.

W5 — Midnight Drench: bubble route from the castle

Approach from Desiccated Castle's central tent. Use Slingshot with the lowered pillar immediately east to reach the upper exit, then take the right-hand connection back into eastern Midnight Drench. Ascend at the next opening and link the bubbles with Hover to reach the page.

W6 — Desiccated Castle: upper rooms

From the top tent, take the east, up and west connections. In the following room, climb through the upper exit to the page room. Record this as the upper-room pickup; finding it does not clear the castle's timed-pillar or post-Queen pickups.

W7 — Desiccated Castle: rising pillar and spike crossing

From the top tent, descend and follow the eastern route through three rooms. Activate the floor mechanism with Slingshot, ride the rising right-hand pillar and plant the matchstick toward the left support when the moving obstacle allows a crossing. Bounce across to the page rather than dropping back to the mechanism.

W8 — Desiccated Castle: after evading the Queen

Finish the Evade the Queen sequence and check the next room. The page is reached along the right-hand wall, using a Slingshot foothold and Climb. If you remember escaping but immediately continued toward the next objective, this reward room is a useful separate check.

W9 — Queen's Castle: upper-left room corner

After opening the castle with seven Golden Feathers, use its right tent. Go two rooms west, then down and west. Climb toward the top-left of that room, bringing Hover and Endless Climb for the late-game approach. This page belongs to Queen's Castle; the three earlier castle entries belong to Desiccated Castle.

The Dollmaker: eight pages

Check Hunter's Cabin ×1, The Bog ×2, Autumn Forest ×1, Dollmaker's House ×3 and Burial Vault ×1. The associated achievement is The Tattered Doll, whose Steam description calls the book “The Dollmaker's House.”

D1 — Hunter's Cabin: moving-crate passage

From the central tent, take the east connection, then the lower-left branch and descend toward Night Garden. At the pair of moving crates, use their upper surfaces to reach the elevated hidden passage. Search above the return route instead of following its floor straight out of the cabin.

D2 — The Bog: western route from the right tent

Use The Bog's right tent and follow the connected route four rooms west to the page. This is the western-route pickup. Compare it separately with the high ledge near the left tent in D3; both belong to the same book.

D3 — The Bog: high shelf near the left tent

At the left-tent area, look for the raised steps and the page on the wall to the right. Throw the matchstick from the upper step to create a foothold, then rebound above the shelf's spiked left edge to land on top. Wall Sling gives another late-game setup for this high-wall return. Aim to clear the spike fringe rather than climbing through it.

D4 — Autumn Forest: hidden passage beside Ilda

After the Forest King encounter, check the Golden Feather reward area. Look to the right of Ilda for the concealed wall passage and enter it for the page. Collecting the feather and collecting this page are two separate actions in the same onward area.

D5 — Dollmaker's House: puzzle room above the central tent

From the central tent, ascend and turn west into the puzzle room. Bring Hover and Climb for its approach and collect the page there. Use “upper puzzle room” as your checklist landmark so it stays distinct from the nearby high foothold route.

D6 — Dollmaker's House: high route west of the central tent

Leave the central tent to the west and look upward at the first short branch. Create a Slingshot foothold, then combine the rebound, Hover and climbing to reach the higher page. For the return pass, Endless Climb removes the stamina pressure on the long ascent.

D7 — Dollmaker's House: door controlled from two areas

Open both levers before returning to the page's gate. One approach starts at Dollmaker's House's central tent, heading down and east. The other starts at Burial Vault's left tent, heading three rooms west. Check the lever on each side; revisiting only the page door leaves the other half of the route unfinished.

D8 — Burial Vault: concealed low passage

From Burial Vault's right tent, follow the west, down, west, up and west connections. At the low concealed opening, slide through to the page. If you reach the correct room but keep searching its upper platforms, return to the floor-level passage.

The Lookout Tower: six pages

Check Night Garden ×1, the Well/Bog–Drains connector ×1, Gravenvalley ×1, Lookout Tower ×2 and The Deep ×1. Completing this book earns Above the Kingdom.

T1 — Night Garden: ledge above the room entrance

From the top tent, descend through two rooms and take the western connection. Look directly above the entrance in the next room. Bring Hover with Slingshot and Climb for a comfortable return to the elevated page rather than searching along the floor.

T2 — The Well / Bog–Drains connector: waterfall shaft

Approach from The Drains tent, following the western, gradually rising connection toward the Well. At the falling water, climb the long shaft and inspect the concealed space near its roof. Bring Endless Climb for this return. A marker described as “The Bog” can refer to this connector; compare the waterfall shaft before searching a second supposed location.

T3 — Gravenvalley: above the Ticket Office

From the Gravenvalley tent, descend through the shortcut, take the eastern downward shaft and follow the east, up, east and up connections toward the Ticket Office. On its right, make a Slingshot foothold and rebound into the concealed upper space for the page.

T4 — Lookout Tower: moving-platform climb

Use the bottom tent and ascend two rooms. Time the moving-platform ride to reach the page above. This is the vertical pickup near the tent; the second tower page takes the western loop in T5.

T5 — Lookout Tower: western loop

From the bottom tent, go west, down, west and up. Use a Slingshot rebound to reach the page, with Hover and Climb available for the approach. Count this loop separately from the moving-platform climb even though both start at the same tent.

T6 — The Deep: return through the water current

Bring Water Vessel and enter The Deep through the eastern underwater entrance from The Docks. Follow the right, down and left connections to locate the page in the water passage. Continue below it and take the next upward route to approach the pickup from the other side of the current.

Missing one page: choose the next trip

At 22/23, first check which book is short. Use the relevant branch below to compare a few different access actions before doing another full-map sweep.

• Witch's Bargain at 8/9: if you have not searched Queen's Castle, start with W9. Otherwise compare all three Desiccated Castle landmarks and both Midnight Drench routes. One castle page does not clear the castle, and one Drench page does not clear both entrances.
• Dollmaker at 7/8: if the two-lever gate is shut, finish D7's other approach. If you already claimed that page, compare Ilda's hidden reward-area passage, both Bog pickups and all three House rooms.
• Lookout Tower at 5/6: check the waterfall connector and underwater current before repeating only the tower. If those are done, compare the tower's moving-platform ascent with its separate western loop.

For an unhelpful map hint, inspect unexplored exits as well as known rooms: the tent's collectible hints cover rooms you have visited. Use Glass Eye for concealed passages and Rusted Compass to check whether a collectible remains in a room; Trinkets lists where to obtain them. A signal still needs to be matched to the page's entrance.

After collecting a candidate, reopen Pages and compare the book counter before marking the route complete. If the book is finished but your save remains at 99%, switch to the completion checklist; trinket slots, unexplored rooms and trial rewards need their own checks.
