Return of the Obra Dinn: All Crewmember Names & Fates | 100% Completion Guide

Untangle the nautical mystery of Return of the Obra Dinn with our quick-reference crew manifest, with all crew names and fates listed in order — just like the crew list you’ll find in-game. In this seabound puzzler, you’ll investigate why the cargo ship, the Obra Dinn, has returned with nothing but dead bodies onboard. The entire crew has disappeared, with remains scattered across the long-lost vessel.

Using a mystical compass, you’ll be able to revisit the moment-of-death for any bodies you find. Using sparse information, you’ll have to deduce what happened to every crewmember. You’ll need to identify two things about each character from the job list: what their name is, and their fate. Once you discover three correct answers, the game will lock the answers into place, and you’ll be able to slowly whittle down solutions to figure out what happened to everyone.

There isn’t a whole lot of information to go by. You’ll need to pay close attention to scenes, study locations, check your ship map, look-up nationalities, and use plenty of common-sense to solve this twisted tale of tragedy on the open sea. If you’re ever stuck, we’ve provided a full list of crewmember names and fates for you to browse below — if you want to jump to a certain crewmember, press [CTRL+F] and search for the job.
