Come in Event Guide: How to Unlock & Complete Limited-Time Events

What Are Events in Come in?

Events in Come in are limited-time content updates that introduce new story fragments, unique challenges, and exclusive collectibles to the psychological horror experience. Unlike the main campaign, events often take place in alternate versions of the forest cabin or introduce new characters and anomalies. Participating in events is the only way to unlock certain lore notes, special endings, and cosmetic items. Events typically run for two to four weeks and are announced via the Steam news feed or in-game notifications. Each event requires you to meet specific progression thresholds in the main story before you can access it.

How to Unlock Events

To unlock events in Come in, you must first complete the tutorial segment of the main campaign. This involves surviving your first night in the cabin and discovering the initial set of clues about the protagonist’s online date. Once you have progressed to the point where the game saves automatically, the Events tab will become available from the main menu. Some events have additional requirements, such as having found a certain number of notes or having interacted with specific objects in the cabin. Check the event description in-game to see if you meet the prerequisites. If you are stuck, refer to our beginner guide for tips on early progression.

Types of Events

Come in features several recurring event types, each with a distinct gameplay loop and reward structure. Seasonal Events align with real-world holidays like Halloween or Christmas, adding themed decorations and storylines to the cabin. Challenge Events task you with completing specific objectives, such as escaping a room within a time limit or identifying all anomalies in a sequence. Lore Events unlock new diary entries and audio logs that expand the backstory of the cabin and its previous inhabitants. Finally, Collaboration Events occasionally introduce content from other indie horror titles. For the latest updates, keep an eye on the patch notes.

Event Objectives and How to Complete Them

Each event in Come in presents a set of objectives that must be completed to earn the final reward. Objectives range from simple exploration tasks, like “Find the hidden key in the kitchen,” to complex puzzles requiring pattern recognition and environmental observation. To complete an event efficiently, follow these steps:

1. Read the event brief carefully — it often contains hints about where to start.
2. Explore every room in the cabin, including areas that are normally locked during the main campaign.
3. Interact with new objects that glow or have a distinct visual cue, as these are event-specific.
4. Solve puzzles in order — skipping ahead may lock you out of certain rewards.
5. Save frequently using the in-game save points to avoid losing progress.

Event Rewards and Exclusive Items

Completing event objectives rewards you with exclusive items that cannot be obtained through normal gameplay. These include unique key items that unlock hidden rooms, alternate endings for the main story, and cosmetic changes to the cabin’s interior. Some events also grant achievements that contribute to your Steam profile. The most valuable rewards are often tied to completing all objectives in an event, so aim for 100% completion.

Remember that event rewards are tied to your save file, so you cannot trade or transfer them between playthroughs.

Tips for Maximizing Event Participation

To get the most out of events in Come in, plan ahead. Start the event as soon as it launches to have the full duration for completion. Use the in-game journal to track your progress and revisit any missed objectives. If an event requires specific items or knowledge from the main campaign, ensure you have progressed far enough beforehand. Join the game’s community forums or Discord server to share tips and discover hidden secrets. Finally, do not rush — events are designed to be atmospheric and immersive, and rushing may cause you to miss subtle clues. For more general advice, see our beginner tips guide.
