A practical KOTAMON guide for collectors
KOTAMON combines a relaxed garbage-collecting routine with a trading-card hunt. You rummage through discarded objects, complete work around the dump site, uncover treasures, and build a card collection along the way. This independent guide hub is organized around the questions that interrupt a real play session: which cards have been documented, how the four color sets are organized, where to look next, what foil cards change, and which achievements still need attention. Each section is designed as a direct route to an answer, with related guides linked together so you can move from discovery to repair, valuation, set completion, and achievement planning without searching through unrelated posts.
Start with the beginner's guide if you are learning the basic loop. Use the card database when you need a searchable reference, then open the collection tracker to mark normal and foil finds. Tracker progress is stored in your browser, so it works without an account and does not upload your checklist to this site.
Card pages distinguish documented information from details that still need retail verification. That matters for a newly released game: footage, demo builds, store descriptions, and player reports do not always describe the same version. We link claims to their evidence tier and avoid filling gaps with invented card names, locations, values, or drop rates. When reliable information changes, the relevant guide is updated instead of silently presenting an old build as current.
