How to Get Ciphers in Once Human
Here are the different ways of obtaining Ciphers or Meme points in the game.
Getting EXP and Leveling Up
The most straightforward method is by gaining XP and leveling up. As you progress through the game, completing the story missions, defeating enemies, and gathering resources will earn you experience points. Reaching a new level rewards you with Ciphers.
One of the easiest ways to earn EXP is to Summon V via the wheel that appears when you press the TAB key. Then click on View Commissions after interacting with it and then complete the weekly tasks.
You can also check the objectives under the Journey tab to see how you can earn XP.
Seasonal Challenges
Once Human has Season Goals that offer additional opportunities to earn Ciphers. Completing these challenges often requires specific actions, like crafting items, exploring certain areas, or defeating specific enemies.
For example, as you can see in the image below, you need to place 5 Furniture, reach a Territory Building rating of 100, cook 5 dishes, etc to earn Mitsuko’s Marks. And when you collect stars, you get different rewards, which also includes Ciphers.
Daily and Weekly Quests
