Vintage Story Progression Map
2026 What unlocks what in a game Early
An interactive map of what unlocks what in the game Vintage Story, and how to actually get there. The first version was built in one evening.
Why
Vintage Story deliberately doesn't tell you much about progression. The handbook is a reference and not a path, and I think a lot of people give up on the game because of that. Every step on the map opens a short guide: what to do, in what order, and which mistake everyone makes the first time.
Numbers come from the game
Every number in the app is extracted from a local install of the game, by a script that reads the same files the game reads. Knapping, clay forming and smithing patterns are shown as diagrams you can step through layer by layer.
