Notes

Collecting Notes about the game's characters is the primary goal of Gnosia. In order to complete the game, the player must fill out their Silver Key with information about each of the crew members in hope of finding answers about why they and Setsu are stuck in a time loop and how to escape.

Obtaining
Notes are obtained by viewing Events that reveal details about a character's personality, capabilities, and/or backstory. These events are triggered in various different ways, most commonly popping up simply if the characters in the event are alive at night. Some events have more complex triggers, however: Kukrushka 4, for instance, requires Kukrushka and Remnan to both end up as Guard Duty.

The events for certain Notes require the player to be specifically human or specifically Gnosia, and these are noted on the character's Notes screen with a Crew or Gnosia icon. The game otherwise will never require the player to be a specific role to obtain a Note, though certain roles - like Guardian Angel - can make obtaining certain Notes easier.

The easiest way to obtain Notes is to use the Event Search function, which is unlocked after obtaining Setsu 2 - a Note that merely requires surviving until the end as humans with Setsu. Using Event Search will set loop parameters and assigned roles in such a way that it will ensure obtaining a certain Note is possible, though it's up to the player to discern how to obtain the Note from there.

If the player is struggling to obtain a certain Note, it's advised to try things like collaborating with various characters, intentionally losing to the Gnosia, or trying out strategies they don't typically use.
