Recruit Citizen Sleeper Crew Effectively

This guide details how to recruit every crew member in Citizen Sleeper 2. Remember, while recruitment is usually straightforward (accepting their offer), success in Contracts or other events can influence outcomes. You might lose crew members due to bad luck or miss opportunities entirely. Let us know in the comments if you find alternative recruitment methods!

Recruiting Your Crew in Citizen Sleeper 2

Serafin and Bliss: These two join automatically and are always part of your crew. Serafin is generally unavailable for Contracts. No achievements are tied to their recruitment.

Juni: Initially a temporary crewmate on Hexport, Juni can be permanently recruited after completing the "Idle Minds" clock at Solheim Records. A cutscene will trigger, followed by a Contract. Agree to let Juni rejoin your ship.

Recruiting Juni unlocks the "Data Archaeologist" achievement.

Yu-Jin: Found on Far Spindle after completing the "Getting Wracked" clock at Gaia's Gyre (requires ordering a Wrack four times, costing 16 Cryo). Complete the subsequent Contract to recruit Yu-Jin.

Recruiting Yu-Jin unlocks the "The Freelancer" achievement.

Luis: During the Aphelion Beacon Contract, choosing to leave Yu-Jin behind allows you to recruit Luis.

Recruiting Luis unlocks the "Signalchaser" achievement.

Kadet: Encountered on Far Spindle after completing the "Spindle Core" clock. This unlocks a new drive and Stripline Express. Complete the events at Stripline Express, triggering a cutscene. Finally, travel to the Scatteryards to recruit Kadet.

Recruiting Kadet unlocks the "The Spindlejack" achievement.

Femi & Nia: You can recruit only one of these two. You'll meet Nia on Hexport and Femi on both Hexport and Floatsam. A Contract involving Nia's safety will become available. Completing it lets you choose between Femi and Nia.

Recruiting Femi unlocks the "Big Brother" achievement; recruiting Nia unlocks the "Little Sister" achievement.

Flint: After your first visit to Olivera, a Contract leads to investigating Flint's disappearance. A subsequent Contract requires setting a trap. Follow Xander to rescue Flint and then recruit him.

Recruiting Flint unlocks the "Fugitive" achievement.
