Part 38

Learn all about Mementos in Shovel Knight Dig! Discover how to obtain each one, where they're located, and what they represent. Your ultimate guide to collecting everything.

Alright, let's talk about Mementos in Shovel Knight Dig! These are pretty neat collectibles that get added to the game after you've accomplished certain things, mostly tied to beating the game with different armors or finding everything. Think of them as little trophies that decorate the Surface and the Guild Hall, making your home base look more and more impressive as you play. Some of these Mementos were added with the Fate and Fortune expansion, and more came with Wicked Wishes. It's worth noting that the Silver Monument and Golden Monument are a bit special. You get the Silver Monument for beating the game with a Normal or Secret Ending, and the Golden Monument for the True Ending. The Golden Monument actually replaces the Silver one, so you'll only ever have one of them at a time. Your Compendium will keep track of all the Mementos you've found, and there's even a Tracker Board near The Well's entrance, courtesy of Hoofman, to show your progress. Most Mementos are just for show, but a couple have actual functions. The Knightmare Depth Banner will show you how deep you've gone into the Knightmares, and the Bomb Sign can actually drop a Wooden Bomb to break cracked walls in the Guild Hall, opening up new areas like the Lamp Lord's room. Here's a breakdown of all the Mementos you can find: * Silver Monument (#1): You get this for beating the game with a Normal or Secret Ending. It's found on the Surface, near Master Argus and Whisker's gravestone. * Golden Monument (#2): This one's for achieving the True Ending. It's in the same spot as the Silver Monument, replacing it. * Final Guard Helm (#3): Beat the game with the Final Guard armor. It's on the shelves in Hoofman's shop. * Scrounger's Suit Helm (#4): Beat the game with the Scrounger's Suit armor.
