All Side Journeys And How To Start Them
In The Witch’s Bakery, Lunne’s main goal is to heal the hearts of Parisians with her magical baked goods, but she also helps a cast of friends through optional Side Journeys. Completing these extra tasks is the key to 100% completion, as each one contributes to an achievement and unlocks relationship upgrades with the characters.
Side Journeys are mostly optional activities that run alongside the main story and daily chores. While they don’t affect the primary narrative, missing any of them will prevent you from earning the “Complete All Side Journeys” achievement and from maxing out every character’s relationship, which is primarily built through these extra missions.
It’s important to finish every available Side Journey before the story reaches its point of no return. After the TV interview airs, the game locks the city, and you won’t be able to explore further. The game doesn’t warn you, but the lock happens almost immediately after that broadcast, so make sure you’ve tackled all side tasks beforehand.
