Start with the objective in your Story panel

Find your next story target before spending resources on a goal that belongs to another panel. This Task Bar Cube walkthrough focuses on the early directions pictured in official materials, helping you check objectives and rewards as you play. Use this Task Bar Cube walkthrough alongside your current Story panel to separate narrative progress from daily tasks and Steam achievement milestones.

This guide covers the Steam Windows launch release of October 25, 2026, using evidence reviewed October 26. Its details come from developer descriptions and promotional screenshots; no numbered patch or independent gameplay testing is verified.

Task Bar Cube is an idle desktop RPG with automatic hero combat and compact taskbar or full-screen views. Start by opening Story and reading the current entry. Note its title, location wording, and displayed reward so your next action has a specific target.

If the compact view makes an instruction difficult to read, use the full-screen view to inspect it before continuing.

The official Task Bar Cube Steam listing advertises eight story chapters, while its promotional Story panel displays “71/75 Chapters Unlocked.” The relationship between those labels is unexplained. Follow the entry’s directions rather than treating the larger counter as confirmation of a 75-chapter campaign.

The same panel includes Collect and a control displayed as Story: Off. Check the live labels and any explanation before changing that control; the screenshot alone does not establish what switching it changes.

Task Bar Cube walkthrough: Four pictured story directions

The pictured first-chapter entries include Breakfast Disaster, Whose Note?, The Moneylender’s Desk, and Names in the Ledger. These titles help you recognize the story section without needing a retelling of its narrative.

Four directions appear in the reviewed material. Match them against the wording in your active entry rather than assigning a target from its title alone.

Level named by the story pointer Stage named by the story pointer
Level 7 Stage 4
Level 11 Stage 7
Level 16 Stage 6
Level 20 Stage 5

Keep both numbers together. The evidence does not define a conversion between these level-and-stage pairs and the global stage totals named in Steam achievements, so preserve the wording your Story entry uses.

For each pictured direction, work through three checks:

  1. Identify the objective. Read the current entry and locate the level-and-stage direction it actually gives you.
  2. Check the completion wording. Use the live entry to determine the required action. The pictured directions alone do not establish whether reaching a location, winning a fight, or another action completes it.
  3. Verify the reward. Read the coin reward displayed for that entry and check its collection state. Use Collect when an available story reward is shown.

For example, if your current instruction names Level 11, stage 7, preserve both numbers in your notes. Completing a daily boss objective along the way does not replace that story instruction.

The official image shows sample coin rewards, but it does not establish a universal payout for each target. Check your own entry’s amount instead of budgeting around a promotional value.

After collecting an available reward, reread Story for the next instruction. If your panel differs from the picture, follow your current entry. These four pointers provide an early reference route, rather than an exhaustive schedule of later chapter unlocks.

Check story rewards and daily tasks separately

The reward routine in this Task Bar Cube walkthrough is to return to the panel that set the goal. Several systems display rewards, but their conditions and collection controls belong to different activities.

Panel or area What official imagery shows What to check
Story Narrative entries, coin rewards, and Collect Current entry’s objective and reward status
AFK Reward A timer, accumulated rewards, and Collect Rewards currently listed in that bar
Daily Reward A seven-day reward strip Which reward is available on your account
Daily Quests Task objectives and Claim controls Each quest’s stated completion condition

The pictured daily objectives include defeating bosses, spending dust, selling items, earning gold, and defeating enemies. Check these before ordinary play so you can recognize overlapping goals. If you already intended to sell spare equipment, for example, inspect the sales objective first.

Keep useful equipment requirements in mind before selling. A daily sales task gives you a separate objective; it does not establish that every spare item is expendable or that selling advances the story.

When a daily quest appears complete, inspect its Claim control. Then return to Story to check narrative progress independently. The seven-day reward strip also deserves its own check because it is distinct from the daily task list, even though both appear in the Quests panel.

The promotional AFK bar shows 01:45 / 11:00, but those are sample account values. They do not establish a universal cap, fixed income rate, or reward accumulation after closing the client. Plan around the rewards your account displays rather than an assumed overnight payout.

Review upgrades when combat blocks your target

When combat prevents you from reaching a pictured target, continue this Task Bar Cube walkthrough by reviewing the upgrades available on your account. The store names Cube upgrades, talents, hero skills, and equipment systems, but provides no tested best build or story-specific damage requirement.

Equipment upgrades deserve particular attention because the advertised systems use different inputs and produce different results.

Equipment option Advertised behavior Check before spending
Rarity Upgrade Compatible items of the same type and rarity produce the next rarity, retaining the highest input level Required matching items and input count
Fusion Nine items produce a new item, with tier and rarity described as near the input average Every selected item and the displayed output information
Tier Upgrade Advances an item’s tier while retaining rarity; attempts consume coins even on failure Current success chance and currency costs

Rarity and tier are separate attributes. The advertised equipment range runs from Common through Divine across seven rarities, with seven tiers per item. A tier increase should therefore be read separately from a rarity increase.

For rarity upgrades, required input counts rise from three at the first step to eight at the sixth. Check spare compatible items before selling them for a daily objective. The advertised rarity process involves no luck, whereas fusion can produce varying outcomes.

Fusion also increases Fusion Level, which is described as improving the chance of better output tier and rarity. That does not supply a fixed probability table or establish that fusion is the best choice for your current story obstacle.

For a tier attempt, read the success chance and Iron, Gold, and Platinum Coin costs shown for your item. Promotional example costs are not universal. After making an upgrade you intended to buy, return to the same target and compare progress before committing more resources.

Use achievements as separate progress markers

Use the achievement examples below as companion goals to this Task Bar Cube walkthrough. They describe tracked milestones, rather than a verified sequence of story unlocks.

Achievement Publicly listed condition
Explorer I Reach stage 150
Boss Hunter I Defeat 10 bosses
Engineer I Make 150 Cube upgrades
Sage I Upgrade 20 talents
Reborn I Prestige once
Clicker I Click the enemy cube 1,000 times

These numbers answer different questions. Explorer I tracks reaching stage 150; it does not establish that a story chapter begins there. Engineer I measures Cube upgrades, while Sage I measures talent upgrades. Neither condition supplies an upgrade order for the pictured story targets.

Reborn I records a first Prestige without identifying the best reset point or confirming which story rewards remain available afterward. An achievement condition can tell you what earns that achievement while leaving the broader consequences of the action unresolved.

The developer explicitly says ACT League boss bonuses survive Prestige. That statement applies to those bonuses; it does not establish story retention, equipment retention, or a complete reset policy. Read your current reset information before resetting a run.

Statistics can help you compare relevant counters, including highest stage, talents upgraded, and Cube upgrades. Keep those totals separate from the directions attached to a specific story entry.

The reviewed public Steam page supplies 26 visible achievement goals, while the promotional in-game panel displays 0/46. A complete achievement list is therefore unverified. Use the visible conditions individually, without assuming that entries absent from the public view are unobtainable.

Continue with the beginner guide. Start by watching automatic combat, inspecting one affordable upgrade, and comparing what changes.

Continue with the Cube upgrade guide. Read the Cube panel to identify which upgrade affects health, damage, regeneration, or enemy Gold gain.

Continue with the achievement milestones. Use the official achievement descriptions as measurable goals while keeping their counters separate.

FAQ

Is this Task Bar Cube walkthrough a complete eight-chapter route?
No. It covers four early directions pictured in official promotional material and explains how to check objectives and rewards. Later story destinations, complete unlock conditions, and chapter-by-chapter payouts are not established by the available evidence.
What should I check if Story seems stuck?
Read the current entry’s title, full level-and-stage direction, completion wording, and reward status. Check whether Collect is available in Story itself. If the displayed condition appears satisfied but collection remains unavailable, the reviewed evidence does not establish a universal fix or an additional hidden requirement.
Does automatic combat mean story progress continues with the game closed?
Closed-client story progression is unconfirmed. Automatic hero combat and an AFK Reward display are advertised, but those features do not prove that story objectives complete or rewards accumulate while the application is closed.
Do I need every achievement before continuing the story?
The reviewed material does not establish that requirement. Treat achievements as separate tracking goals unless your current Story instruction explicitly connects them. A milestone such as 150 Cube upgrades is an achievement condition, rather than a confirmed chapter gate.
