This is an unofficial, fan-made checklist. It is not affiliated with, endorsed, sponsored or approved by FromSoftware, Inc. or Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc. It is not a game. It is the list you keep beside you while you play. Every collectible in Dark Souls Remastered, including the Artorias of the Abyss content, in one offline list: the four acquisition trophies, all 41 rings, and all 9 covenants. Every entry says which area of Lordran it is in, and carries the game's own item text, where the thing is found, and who has it. WHAT IS IN IT • The four trophy lists — rare weapons, sorceries, miracles, pyromancies • All 41 rings, base game and DLC, with what each one does • All 9 covenants and what joining each one gets you • The item text as the game writes it, not a paraphrase • Where it is, and who drops, sells or guards it • Every entry placed in one of Lordran's 28 areas, from the Undead Asylum to the Kiln HOW IT WORKS • Tap the circle to mark something found. That is the whole interaction. • A progress ring per trophy, so you can see which one is closest. • Group any list by area and it folds into the places you walk through, in the order you walk through them. Fold away what you have cleared. • Every trophy says what is left and which area holds most of it, so there is always somewhere to go next. • Search and filter inside any list — still missing, already found, base game or DLC. • Ticked items sync through your own iCloud account. They follow you to a new iPhone and come back if you delete the app and reinstall it. There is no account of ours, no sign-in, and no server of ours involved. • No ads, no tracking, no subscription. Everything up to and including Anor Londo is free; one purchase opens the rest, once and for good. • Where published sources disagree on a trophy's requirements, this app lists the extra item rather than risk leaving one out — so a full ring never lies to you about a locked trophy. IF YOU BOUGHT THIS IN 2013 Welcome back, and this one is a free update with nothing locked: you paid once, and the whole checklist stays open on the Apple Account you bought it with. The old version was 32-bit and stopped launching on iOS 11, back in 2017 — it never kept anything off your phone, so what you ticked then cannot be recovered. This one syncs through your own iCloud, so it will not happen again. iPhone, portrait, English. This is an unofficial, fan-made checklist.
