A Hat in Time – The Secret R. King Notes Guide

This is a guide to helping you locate every one of the Mysterious R. King’s secret notes aboard the Hub Spaceship.

Prerequisites

In order to find all of the notes, you’ll need:

  • The Camera Badge
  • Access to All Areas of the Spaceship

How to Find the Notes

You think you know everything about Hat Kid’s Spaceship? Think again!

There are notes hidden by a mystery person named R. King. I don’t know how they will be important later, but they like to take Hat Kid’s stuff and leave notes all over.

The first note is in the Kitchen. It’s behind the trash can, like in the picture below.

Open up the camera with Q, and then woosh it around behind it. (Don’t worry about clipping; apparently, the camera has no collission mesh with this garbage can!)

Following the note’s advice, we head down here into the basement.

Next, we’ll head over to the science lab, and you’ll find the next note tucked behind this little nuclear microwave thingie.

So, who is R. King? Why, he’s the ROACH KING, of course!

(A big thanks to Leudic for pointing all this out to me.)

An Unrelated Note

Update: People have told me this part of the Guide is not actually about R. King’s notes. R. King just means Roach King. But I found these notes using the same methods, so I felt like I should include them here anyway. I’ll make a separate guide later if we learn more about this.

Now let’s go to the attic! I’ll be honest, it took me a while to find this one. But I finally found it hidden inside this closet right here!

  1. just here to say there’s actually two more notes! they’re in the bedroom. the first one is behind the chair in the corner, it says “check under red box.” and the only red box in hat kid’s room is on her desk, the note under that one is a bit harder to get to yourself, it says “IOU 1/2 cookie check kitchen” and then the rest of the notes come into play! sorry, im very invested in the AHIT lore :]
