How to unlock the Trail of the Castaway achievement in Palworld - Definitive Guide

In order to make this achievement much easier to locate the Notes, I would highly recommend adjusting your in-world settings when selecting your save, and select the option labelled, ‘Custom Settings’.

Change the following:

Day Time Speed - 5
Night Time Speed - 0.1
Pal Stamina Reduction Rate - 0.1

(Make sure to select ‘OK’ in order to apply these settings)

Any other settings you wish to tweak are completely optional. These settings will essentially allow you to roam around the map without the need to constantly land your pal to recover lost stamina. You will almost always be roaming around at night which is a huge help for locating these collectables as they glow up (Blue) when you get relatively close to them, making them much easier to spot than trying to locate them during the day.

There are a few interactive maps out there, however I used the following as it has a ‘check’ function to mark them off as you go.
https://www.ign.com/maps/palworld/palpagos-islands
You can refine your search to display the Notes (Journal Entries) ONLY. This is a really helpful tool, as you can mark off each one as you find them.

In order to check the Notes that you have already collected, Hit start, go to options, then down to Journals.

If you haven’t already, I would advise combining this with the following achievement:
PalworldGuru of the IslandsThe Guru of the Islands achievement in Palworld worth 278 pointsObtained 255 Lifmunk Effigies

I would personally advise focusing on the ‘Notes’ and get any Effigies as you travel between them, and then simply finish the Effigies by spotting them with the above settings to make them easier to locate.

Note: It would appear that the Effigies are retroactive and can possibly be accumulated over multiple worlds (Needs confirmation as I only collected 232 on my main file and probably accumulated the rest on a couple other worlds belonging to friends).

I’ve been reading comments actually where other users are experiencing the same issue, so there may be a bigger problem here :/

Had no issues with achievements until the very end, Trail of the Castaway - Blood and Iron - Guru of the Islands - Overhunting... all bugged for me. Seems the save file/account reaches some moment where nothing can unlock anymore.

Just to note also, you can track what journals you've already collected.
Hit start, go to options, then down to Journals.

Ok, positive vote for posting a map with a checklist onto the solution page; but also a negative vote for failing to mention that use of the checklist requires not just an account there, but a premium account.

@ Morpheus, you DO NOT need a premium account for this achievement. You are allowed to check off up to 100 items before you need a premium subscription to continue. This achievement only requires you to check off up to 40 items, so it shouldn’t ever be a problem.
