How to complete Get Nostalgic! in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Disney Dreamlight Valley has plenty of secret, tricky duties for you to tackle. For these types of missions, you often only have the name to go off, as is the case with the Get Nostalgic! task.

Since your only clue doesn't provide any solid insight, it can be quite tough to figure out what needs to be done for this quest. It's an essential one to get done if you're interested in unlocking an exclusive prize, so here's how to complete Get Nostalgic! in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

To complete the Get Nostalgic! duty, you need to find all pieces of the Nostalgia memory. This can be accomplished by finding Riley's Phone around the valley. There are 10 pieces of the memory, so you need to find at least 10 of Riley's Phones.

Depending on how lucky or unlucky you are, though, you might need to find even more, as not all instances of this item are guaranteed to grant a piece of the memory. Some of them might drop some Star Coins instead.

This task is part of the Memory Mania event. The 2025 installment began on Sept. 3 and is slated to run until Sept. 16. The event has been a bit glitchy, though, with some items appearing back when the update launched on Aug. 20 even though the event hadn't started yet. Because of this, it's possible it could end up being extended, so we'll provide an update here if this happens.

Riley's Phone spawns randomly anywhere on the ground around the outside of Chez Remy. It's a very small green item marked by some golden sparkles. It's one of the tougher items to find across all events, as it's incredibly small and flat, making it easy to miss even when you're fairly close to it.

The biome you need to visit to find this item varies depending on where you have the restaurant placed. Mine is in the Plaza, so Riley's Phone pops up around it in this area. If your Chez Remy is in a different region, like Dazzle Beach or the Forest of Valor, you'll need to explore there instead.

This item and all other ones featured in the event can also only appear in Dreamlight Valley, not DLC worlds. Avoid searching for it around Eternity Isle or The Storybook Vale, as you won't find what you're seeking there.

Only two of Riley's Phones can be present in your village at any given time. If there are two in your valley waiting to be picked up, more won't spawn in until at least one is removed. The one-hour countdown for a new phone to appear also doesn't start until there's room for it, so be sure to hunt for this item frequently.

Completing the Get Nostalgic! duty unlocks the special Nostalgia Capybara. This Companion is based on the Nostalgia character from Inside Out 2. All of the Companions featured in this event are from the same film, so there are plenty of other critters to unlock next after this one.

If you're not sure what to do after completing this duty, there are plenty of tasks worth working on around the valley. Next, you might try completing all Retro Roadtrip Star Path duties, placing stalls in DLC worlds, and finishing the Capture the Sun quest.
