Quick answer
Start here
Learn the interact, drop and place controls, choose one nearby shelf, scan for objects that visibly belong there, place only when the game shows a cue, then recheck the shelf and badge progress.
How to complete your first shelf
Use a careful observation loop to work toward the official First Shelf badge while the exact object order and shelf location remain unpublished.
Checked July 21, 2026
Step-by-step
Follow these checks in order
- 1
Confirm your controls
Before moving objects, verify E/Q/Click on PC or RT/B/O/Y/△ on console. Avoid T on PC because it is labelled Wipe Save.
- 2
Choose one visible shelf
Stay with one nearby shelf instead of moving objects across the entire classroom. Look for books or supplies and observe what the game highlights.
- 3
Place only on a live cue
Select or hold the object and use the placement action only when the current game shows a valid prompt or highlight. This prevents an unsupported location guess.
- 4
Recheck the shelf and progress
After each placement, look at the shelf and the in-game progress display. If nothing changes, reselect the object and use the stuck-item checks.
If you're stuck
Reset the current check
Stop repeating the same input. Confirm the device binding, reselect the visible object, look for the live placement cue, and use the linked troubleshooting page if the state still does not change.
Common mistakes
When the first attempt does not work
Following a guessed item order
No complete first-shelf sequence is published. Let the current game prompt guide each placement.
Working too many areas
One visible shelf makes it easier to notice what changed after each object.
Assuming the badge has a reward
The badge is documented, but no separate reward was collected. Do not plan around one.
