Recommended Chase Order
Most efficient order to clear achievements across 2-3 saves:
Save 1: Standard run (target 25-30 achievements)
- Story 5/5 (auto on reaching Room 46).
- Puzzles 8-10/12 (skip Permadeath-only ones).
- Items 5-7/8 (Trophy and Sapphire counts may need a second run).
- Endings: Standard. Maybe Forgotten or Outer if route allows.
- Hidden 3-4/8 (Architect, Cousin, Eighth Formula, Listen to Walls).
Save 2: Permadeath (target 6-8 achievements)
- Iron Heir (Permadeath clear).
- Speed Demon (under 30 days — Permadeath usually meets this).
- Hidden achievements not unlocked on Save 1.
- Black Letter, Forgotten Name (require Day 11+, so plan for long Permadeath run).
Save 3: NG+ True/Forever ending
- The True Heir (requires Save 1 + Save 2 to seed NG+).
- Forever (Permadeath True Ending NG+).
- The Coat Returns (endgame trigger).
- Mt. Holly Forever (refuse inheritance — branches the post-game).
Most Missable Achievements
- The Letter — read uncle's letter in Study. Easy to skip if you don't draft Study early.
- Star Reader — must identify all 12 constellations across multiple Observatory visits. Track them with a Camera item.
- Cousin's Confession — all 7 letters; one appears on Day 8 only.
- The Black Letter — Maid relationship matters; don't ignore her or steal in Commissary.
- Sanctum Found — single 0.4% room. Could take 100+ days of runs to see naturally.
Achievements FAQ
Do achievements carry across saves?
Yes. Achievements are per-account (Steam/GOG/PSN), not per-save. Unlocking one on Save 1 keeps it for Save 2.
Can I unlock achievements offline?
Yes. They sync when you next go online.
Is 100% achievable in one save?
Theoretically yes for everything except Speed Demon (under 30 days) and Forever (NG+ from Permadeath True). Practical 100% needs 2-3 saves.
Are there hidden achievements not listed here?
As of v1.2.4, no. Datamining confirms 42 total. Any post-launch DLC may add more.
