How To
How to Get Kudos
Kudos are Varrock Museum reputation. You earn them from natural history quizzes, cleaning Digsite finds, and displaying fossils from Fossil Island. Higher kudos unlock museum rewards and tick off diary / collection progress — most of the total comes from fossils once Bone Voyage is done.
Skip if: You’re skipping the museum and Fossil Island entirely.

Three ways to earn kudos- Natural history quizzes — talk to museum NPCs / displays on the natural history floors and answer correctly. Free, no supplies, do these whenever you’re in Varrock.
- Clean finds — dig at the Digsite, clean specimens at the museum, hand them in. Pairs naturally with The Dig Site quest.
- Fossil displays — after Bone Voyage, identify and put fossils on display. This is the bulk of remaining kudos for most accounts.
Efficient order- Clear museum quizzes early — zero cost.
- Finish The Dig Site / clean finds while you’re already there for quests.
- Unlock Fossil Island (guide), then systematically display fossils instead of banking them forever.
- Check the museum information clerk / kudos tracker so you know what’s left.
Fossil Island overlap- Birdhouse runs and digs feed both GP/XP and museum progress — don’t ignore displays.
