Story & Key Items
Items the story uses to open doors, vehicles and locked containers. These are the items the game itself uses to gate progress, so they are worth knowing about before you need them.

Where you get each key item has not been confirmed in a way this guide can point at, so it is not claimed here. The Item Finder routes you to the page that does have confirmed information.

Recordings are the collection target in this game. They are tracked as a set rather than one page per tape.
Story Recordings (14)
Find all 14 recordings by chapter and story timing. Each one is listed on a single page with an anchor, so you can jump straight to the tape you are missing.

Search the item first to check its type, then look at the chapter it belongs to. If something is not where you expect it, the usual cause is that the relevant story step has not started yet.
