All Memories Unlock Requirements in Garden Story

List of Memories available, unlocking requirements, and benefit when active. Memories grant Concord improved abilities to aid them in their journey of discovery through the Grove. Many will be unlocked organically as the plot progresses, while others you may need to deliberately pursue. This guide will list them all, so you can see which ones will be most useful to you and how to access them.

Generally, each Guardian’s set of memories becomes available when you find the memorial dedicated to them, at which point actions (such as defeating enemies) will begin to count towards unlocking that Guardian’s memories. The number of memories you can have active at once depends on your Mind stat. Active memories can be changed at your sleeping leaf, although you do not need to sleep to change them.

Whether farming resources or finishing that pesky boss, well chosen Memories will guide and bolster your efforts. Happy Remembering!
