Throughout Season: A Letter to the Future, you will have the chance to fill journal pages, ranging from snapshots of cows to pages that question what is really going on in the world. Some journal entries may be hard to obtain, but we are here to help you.
In this guide, we are going to take a look at how to get every journal page in Season: A Letter to the Future. There are a few different types of entries, so we will sort this by type. Now, let's dive into the pages you can quickly obtain at the start of the game.
Introduction Pages
At the start of the game, you will unlock a variety of pages. There is no way to avoid unlocking these. The journal pages you unlock will highlight how you got to where you are at the start.
Additionally, you will automatically unlock 'Goodbye Ritual' after completing the ritual at home with your mom. This also serves as a tutorial for placing things within your journal.
Location Pages
Now, we have the bulk of the journal. These are location pages, which unlock when you take a picture or record in a new area. For example, the first picture you take in Caro Village will create the 'Caro Village' entry.
These pages need to be filled, which in turn, fills a bar on the upper left-hand side of your journal. Once full, the page within the index will get a black dot next to it, which means it's concluded.
Concluded pages prompt a bit of explanation, and give you access to stickers that can then be placed. Below, you can see all of these location-based pages. The obtaining methods we have listed are the easiest way to unlock each page.

There are three pages related to the three main gods of Tieng Valley; Tide, Din, and Void. These pages all require the following materials.
- Drawn symbol of the god
- Picture of god's statue
- Picture of god's symbol rock at the Shrine
- Prayer Slip
- Drawing of what happened when you prayed
Below, you can check out each god, and how to fill out their page. It's important to note that you will need to know the name of the god before you can pray, which means that you need to visit the shrine before they can all be completed.
For example, you can take a picture of the statue for Void, but until you know its name, you can't pray at the bowl.
