by Aria Apr 02,2025

Assembling your crew is a crucial aspect of Citizen Sleeper 2, pivotal for completing various contracts throughout the game. In this guide, I'll walk you through the process of recruiting each unique crew member, offering you the insights needed to build your team effectively.

It's worth noting that while recruitment often involves simply accepting a character's request to join your crew, some situations might require you to excel in Contracts or specific events. Be mindful that poor performance or unfortunate rolls could result in losing crew members or missing out on potential recruits entirely.

Note: Due to the dynamic nature of Citizen Sleeper 2, feel free to leave a comment if you discover alternative recruitment methods for any character!

You'll encounter Femi again on Floatsam, where he'll persuade you to take on a Contract to ensure Nia's safety. Upon completing the Contract, you'll have the final say in choosing between them.

Recruiting Femi unlocks the Big Brother achievement, while choosing Nia earns you the Little Sister achievement.

How to Get Flint
