Artifact Seekers 1: All Hidden Object Locations

If you are stuck hunting down the last few hidden objects in Artifact Seekers 1, this is the full list I put together for all ten episodes. Every scene in the game hides three different sets of collectibles, and the game never tells you which is which, so I have broken each episode down by the exact object type so you can check off what you are missing instead of re-clicking every pixel of a background.

The reason I wrote this up is that the “changing objects” category gave me the most trouble by far. Those tiny decorations blend into the scenery so well that I wasted a lot of time hovering over empty spots, and there is no in-game hint system to bail you out. Below you will find every location broken down episode by episode.

How the Object Types Work

Each episode scatters a handful of hidden object categories, and they behave differently depending on which one you are chasing. The “changing objects” are the interactive decorations that shift between visits, so if one looks off, click it. The named object sets (like the cow, the snake, or the saber) each hide in a fixed list of spots per scene, and the secret room is a bonus sequence you unlock once you have solved the smaller puzzles scattered around the map.

One thing worth knowing before you start: a few objects only appear after you complete a prior step, such as a wall or curtain that has to be removed first. I have noted those inline where the source calls them out.

Episode 1: Tropical Island

The opening episode has six named object sets plus the secret room. The cow hides surprisingly well for such a large animal, and I kept walking past the flower on the carpet stain spot.

Changing objects: Beach — shell above the treasure chest; Fisherman’s hut — palm above the fishing boat; Jungle — pistil flower on the right; Lake — bow above the pavilion entrance; Village — next to the house entrance (drum/barrel); Trading shop — flowers on the left; House — stain on the carpet; Pavilion — window grille on the left; Bridge — fruit in the bowl; In front of the temple — ornament under the lion statue; Cave — vine top left; Temple — lamp on the right.
Cow: Beach — in the wreck next to the skeleton; Jungle — right of the stone well; Lake — on the shore in the village; Village — flowers on the well; Trading shop — can in the cupboard above the workbench; Temple — in the sacrificial basin.
Dancer: Fisherman’s hut — drawing in the boat; House — on the kitchen cabinet; Pavilion — ceiling trim top right; Bridge — bush on the left; In front of the temple — cornice piece in the middle; Cave — fresco (after cleaning).
Dolphin: Fisherman’s hut — in the roof ridge; Lake — left in the stones; House — right in the decorative trim; Pavilion — in the red lantern; Temple — up in the column behind the purple curtain.
Flute (Pungi): Fisherman’s hut — above the hammock; Jungle — in the tree left of the path; House — next to the bed; Bridge — in the tree in the middle; In front of the temple — in the tree right of the entrance.
Worm: Trading shop — haystack right of the chicken coop; Beach — in the well, click the marked stones in ascending order; Bridge — left of the wooden figure under the leaves; In front of the temple — moss right above the crate; Cave — in the water puddle on the left.

The Worm on the beach is the one that trips people up, since it is not a simple spot-the-object — you have to click the marked stones in ascending order inside the well before it shows. I nearly missed the cave worm because it sits in a puddle that reads as pure background.

Episode 1 Secret Room

This one is a longer chain than most, so I will lay the steps out in order. Skipping a step here just wastes time, because each action feeds the next.
