Sea of Stars: All Question Pack Locations & How to Answer Them

There are a lot of unexplained things in Sea of Stars – magic shirts that the Hulk would like to have or “how does Serai keep her secret intact from the rest of the crew”? But the most out-of-place anomaly has got to be the Quiz Master who hosts a quiz show that constantly 4th wall breaks everything.

This guide will tell you everything you need to know about question packs in Sea of Stars, specifically how many there are, how they are used, and how to answer the various questions. This is also how you can unlock the Living Encyclopedia Achievement.

How many question packs are in Sea of Stars?

There are 11 question packs in Sea of Stars. 10 of which you can find before fighting the final boss. The final question pack is earned as part of the True Ending.

Where do you use the question packs in Sea of Stars?

You can start making use of question packs the moment you get the Graplou. Go back to the Town of Lucent and use the Graplou on top of the bridge leading out of town. The end of the path should you to the attic of the big common house.

Inside the chest is an item called the Turbo Cookie.

Give the cookie to the pirate zombie wandering around the gravestone west of town. Defeat her and you’ll get the Shed Key that you can use to open the shed on the outskirts of town.

Inside the shed, you’ll find a mysterious pot of unknown origins. It will ask if you have to play. Answer yes, and you’ll be dropped into the Quiz Show where you’ll be playing for treasure and achievements.

Question Pack Locations

The following paragraphs will tell you where you can find every question pack in the game. Most of the packs are found in hidden chests but there is one that can only be found by interacting with an environmental item.

Question Pack #1 – You get this one after completing the first round of quizzes at the quick show at the Town of Lucent.

Question Pack #2 – This question pack becomes available after the reconstruction of the Port Town of Brisk. There is a house north of the markets. Inside this house is a scammer who runs the B.S. Roulette. An impossible game to win without help.

Important: You are required to lose at least once to progress.

Outside the house, you can pay a shady man 90 gold to give you the answer for your next spin. Make sure you get that number correctly or you’ll have just lost 100 gold for nothing.

Your reward for “guessing” the number is Question Pack #2.

Question Pack #3 – Located in the Haunted Mansion’s Library, this question pack is not found inside a chest. Instead, it is tucked away in one of the bookshelves. (You’ll know which one if you follow the sparkling effect.)

Question Pack #4 – This one is found in a treasure chest floating west of the entrance of the Jungle Path on Watcher Island. Follow the shoreline northwest and when you see a pile of rocks, that’s your cue to swim to swim north. The treasure chest should be visible shortly.

Question Pack #5 – This question pack can be found south of Yomara’s House in Songshroom Marsh. The gate going south will be locked. Talk to Yomara first and get the key from her. The question pack’s chest is located in the shadow of rocks after crossing the bridge.

Question Pack #6 – This one can be found in the tavern inside the Cloud Kingdom.

Question Pack #7 – This pack is found in the oasis hidden in the Cerulean Expanse. The directions to navigate the maze are given by this villager inside Repine’s tavern. (Refer to the image above.

Question Pack #8 – The pack is located at the base of the second elevator in the Sky Base after taking the teleporter back to the entrance.

Question Pack #9 – This question is locked behind a cipher door in Repine’s weapon shop. To build the cipher, you need four data strips found in the following locations:

In the chest near a neon sign in Repine
At the back of the Cerulean Reservoir
Inside the Speedball Network Station above the Sea of Stars portal
Behind a wall of spikes on the right side of the giant eyeball puzzle

Once you have all the data strips, go to Serai’s house and have Cedric make you a Cypher from the workbench near the front door.

Question Pack #10 – Inside the Fleshmancer’s study of the Fleshmancer’s Lair before going up the stairs to the final encounter.

Question Pack #11 – Acquired after having dinner in the Golden Pelican at the back of the Port City of Brisk. (Part of the True Ending.)

Question Pack Answers in Sea of Stars

The questions in each question pack consist of facts you should already know up to that point in the game. There are ones that ask you about characters’ names. Others are maths questions where you have to deduce the mana cost of two Skills. That’s a little more advanced but that’s the general idea.

Every quiz comes in two sets – Casual and Expert. They are practically the same with a couple of minor changes. Firstly, you are allowed two mistakes in casual while you fail instantly if you don’t answer correctly in Expert. Secondly, Teaks is only allowed to help you out once in Expert. Once you have availed of her assistance, she won’t be available for the rest of the questions.

By answering all the questions from the Casual and Expert sets, you will be officially called the Lore Master. And unlock the Living Encyclopedia Achievement at last. It’s a good thing all that answering is rewarded with nearly two dozen gems that are worth selling for a pretty penny. The Flimsy Hammer isn’t too bad either.
