Crucial Missable Achievements

You absolutely must keep your eyes peeled for these specific tasks. They span multiple missions and hubs, making them very easy to overlook.

Dr. Gurgula Will Return…

You must find three specific clues to unlock this achievement. Two of these clues exist exclusively within story sections, while you can grab the third one during the post-game.

1. Clue One (Dinner With Mom Mission): While you explore the room where you interact with Ted’s clothes and kill the abomination, look directly to the right side of the area. You will spot a parkour section leading up to a vent. Make your way through this vent to discover the first clue.
2. Clue Two (Professor Berkel Bounty): Before you restore power to open Bessie’s mouth, navigate to the exact opposite side of her head. You will notice a long red wire. Follow this wire until you reach a button. Hit the button to turn the wire green. Next, retrace your steps to the other end of the wire. Inside the connected building, you will uncover the second Gurgula clue.
3. Clue Three (Post-Game in Circuit Arcadia): Spawn directly at the City Plaza location. Turn right and walk all the way to the absolute end of the path. You will see a staircase directly in front of you. Walk up the stairs, take a left, and look for a truck against the wall. You must hit this truck using Travis and Jan’s trick shot to gain access to a hidden puzzle area. Complete the puzzle, enter the newly unlocked room, and grab your third and final clue.

Ankhs For The Memories

You need to start this massive achievement sequence as soon as you unlock Travis. First, head over to the Harbor hub. Navigate to the Escape Rooms located in the bottom left corner of your map. Stand on the platform and shoot it using Travis’s trick shot to gain entry. You must complete all three escape room tutorials and sign up for future escape rooms before you leave.

Escape Room Tutorials Guide:

1. Room One: Interact directly with the alarm clock. Next, grab the Ankh right from the mummy and place it securely into the door.
2. Room Two: Look inside the dumpster and grab the block of meat. Place this meat onto the grill. You will have to look at the grill from a very weird angle to make the prompt work. Finally, grab the newly cooked meat and set it down right in front of the doghouse.
3. Room Three: Take the chainsaw off the wooden shelf and grab the gasoline. Interact with the mummy to pick it up, place the mummy into the bed, and grab the final Ankh.

Remember, you must sign up for future escape rooms right after you finish these three tutorials. Later in the game, after you attend Nipulon’s party, you will talk to everyone and attempt to leave. If you properly completed the escape rooms and signed up for the future ones, an Ankh will suddenly appear on the floor directly in front of the men standing with their backs turned. Interact with these men, confirm your decision to leave, and then walk right up to the Ankh. You earn the final achievement when you wake up and talk to Gene.

Pro Trick: Keep in mind that the game makes any achievement not directly awarded for defeating a bounty boss completely missable! Stay alert and follow these steps carefully to avoid a second playthrough.

Saving Lizzie Achievements

You unlock these achievements by making specific choices during the Lizzie rescue mission.

The Good Ending

When you finally locate Lizzie, bounty hunters will completely surround you. Lizzie will surrender and put her hands in the air. You must immediately shoot her! This shocking action cuts the game straight to the credits and pops the achievement.

Broke The Code

The game awards you this achievement automatically the moment you successfully escape from the zoo sewers.

Pro Tip: Do not worry about ruining your game save to get The Good Ending. The game will automatically restart you at your last safe checkpoint right after the credits finish rolling!

Larry Pinkstock Achievements

This section features puzzles, mazes, and a massive murder mystery investigation.

Dunston Has Checked In

During the mission, Travis will ask you for a fedora. You must use the laser to navigate a tricky maze of frames without hitting a single one. Take your time. You unlock the achievement the moment you successfully reach the end of the maze.

Columbo in Space

You earn this achievement by correctly solving the complex murder mystery. You must gather evidence and interrogate all suspects before pointing the finger at the true culprit.

Evidence Locations:

1. Read the newspaper clipping on the left side of the room entrance.
2. Inspect the spilt carton of milk near the main entrance.
3. Review the divorce papers sitting to the left of Admiral Sessions.

5. Run into the chair across from O.B. Oberon, and then interact with it to discover hidden medical records.

The Accusation:

Once you gather all evidence and ask every single question, proceed to the middle of the room and hit the button. You must accuse O.B. Oberon and explain your reasoning. The achievement will pop immediately afterward.

Pro Trick: When navigating the laser maze for the fedora, move with extreme caution once you reach the right side near the top. The picture frames will suddenly begin falling down at this exact point! Also, while investigating the murder, you can interact with Larry Pinkstock’s body to learn he peed himself, but this step is actually not needed for the achievement.

Muppy Doo Achievements

You gather these milestones while hunting down the Muppy Doo bounty.

Was That A Weiner?

You earn this milestone about halfway through the Muppy Doo bounty. You simply need to sign your name to gain entry into MurderCon.

Invasive Procedure

The game automatically grants you this achievement the second you defeat Muppy Doo in combat.

Pro Tip: You absolutely do not have to draw an actual weiner to get the Was That A Weiner achievement. Simply signing your name on the MurderCon sheet completely satisfies the requirement.

James Stevenson Achievements

You unlock these achievements while dealing with Kreg, finding hidden vases, and matching wits with the Blue Wizard.

Witness the Burning Bush

During your intense fight against Kreg, you must knock him off his hide ride using Travis’s trick shot. Once he falls, quickly burn him using one of the fire turtles to secure this achievement.

Smash That Kreg Button

You unlock this one automatically the moment you finally defeat Kreg Button.

When you meet Apples, you must navigate through every single dark cave area and destroy all the vases inside them.

Why do you know all that stuff?

You must correctly answer every single question the Blue Wizard asks you on your very first try to earn this achievement.

Here is your ultimate cheat sheet for the Blue Wizard’s quiz:

Thats A Wrap on Character Acter Fred Melamed

The game awards this achievement automatically upon your successful defeat of the Blue Wizard.

Pro Trick: Do not waste your time smashing every vase you see in the game. Vases found at the very beginning of the game or vases you find after you exit the caves completely do not count. Only the vases strictly located inside the dark cave areas matter for the achievement.

Dinner With Mom Achievements

This is a quick story section, but it holds vital secrets.

Dr. Gurgula Reminder: Do not forget to search the room where you defeat the abomination to grab the first Dr. Gurgula clue! Check the Missable Achievements section at the top of this guide for exact directions.

Dad’s All, Folks

The game grants you this achievement automatically after you completely finish the Dinner With Mom mission.

Pro Tip: When searching for the Dr. Gurgula clue in the abomination room, always look to the right side of the room first to easily locate the required parkour path and vent.

Bronkin Bucko Achievements

You must practice restraint during this encounter to grab a special achievement.

Starstruck

When you finally locate Bronkin Bucko, walk over to a nearby alley and just sit there patiently. Eventually, the game will give you a specific prompt. You must use Gus’s prompt both times it appears. The game will reward you with the achievement once the mission completely finishes.

Pro Trick: You must resist your gaming instincts here. You will completely void the Starstruck achievement if you shoot Bronkin Bucko or his guards!

Professor Berkel Achievements

Prepare to drink mysterious liquids and complete another boss bounty.

Dr. Gurgula Reminder: Remember to access the building on the exact opposite side of Gessie’s head to secure the second Dr. Gurgula clue before proceeding!

#1 Scientist

When you speak to the Vial Scientist, you must keep interacting with him continuously. Do not stop until you drink every single vial he offers you. Once you empty the final vial, the achievement is yours.

So Long, and Thanks For All The Ghosts

The game automatically awards you this achievement right after you defeat Professor Berkel.

Pro Tip: Treat the escape room sign up sheet as your most important task. You must make absolutely sure you complete the tutorials and sign up for future rooms before you step into this final bounty.

Nipulon Achievements

You will step into a bizarre courtroom and deal with some truly strange situations during this bounty.

Kobe!

When you enter the courtroom and sit down, look at the papers resting directly in front of you. You must use these papers to shoot baskets into the Home hoop. Score exactly five baskets and the achievement will trigger.

Trial of the Century

The game automatically rewards you with this achievement either simultaneously with the Kobe! achievement or right after you defeat Nipulon in combat.

Romanced All 34 Erotic Worm Monsters

Nipulon automatically awards you this oddly specific achievement roughly halfway through your battle with him.

Pro Trick: When going for the Kobe achievement, aim your paper balls directly at the pipe located on the left side of the blue flag to secure your baskets much easier.

Post-Game Completion Achievements

Once you roll the credits, a massive variety of collectible hunting and side missions await you across the various game hubs.

Bountilogical Studies Phd

Travel over to the zoo parking lot and walk inside the bounty hunter museum. You must directly interact with every single exhibit inside the building to earn this achievement.

Nice Day With Jeppy

Spawn into the zoo gift shop location to receive a phone call from your mom. Head directly into the gift shop to locate Jeppy. You must follow Jeppy over to the animal enclosures where he will suddenly jump inside. Go through the doors and suck him right out of the enclosure using Gus.

Jeppy will then begin walking back toward the gift shop. Every single time he stops walking, you must suck him using Gus. Once you successfully reach the gift shop, Jeppy decides he wants to play hide and seek.

You must find him in these three exact locations:

1. First Location: Hide inside the Pond.
2. Second Location: Hide inside the gift shop itself.
3. Third Location: Hide on the roof of the Spaceforest Cafe. Simply suck him down from the roof using Gus.

After you finish this game of hide and seek, you will get a new piece of dialogue with your mom, and the achievement will immediately unlock.

Where’s Maris?

You unlock this achievement by successfully grabbing all the pillow rewards from the Crane Machine.

Tanks for the Memories

You must catch all 37 unique fish from various fishing spots to unlock this achievement. To get the ROD tool required for fishing, travel to the Harbor and walk completely underneath the PeakBellies bar to discover a hidden dock. Talk to the fisherman standing on the dock. Next, lift his boat high into the air using Travis and Jan’s trick shot. He will happily reward you with the ROD.

Unwanted

You must track down and slash all 21 wanted posters using Knifey to secure this achievement.

B.A.L.L. In The Family

You need to recruit three different BALL members across the galaxy.

1. First BALL Member: Spawn at the City Plaza inside Circuit Arcadia. Walk up the stairs located on your right side to find a broken down taxi. The driver will hand you a taxiball. You must complete the various taxi requests scattered around Circuit Arcadia until the only mission left belongs to the taxi driver himself. Deliver the taxi driver safely, and he rewards you with the first BALL member. Important note: You need to intentionally fail at least one of the earlier taxi missions for a separate achievement. You can safely fail all of them except for the final driver mission.
2. Second BALL Member: Head over to the Harbor. Travel down to the Liquid Nights club located at the bottom of the map. You need Bowie to access this area. Walk inside and approach DJ Globo. He will let you win the caged BALL member if you successfully beat his rhythm dancing minigame.
3. Third BALL Member: You must catch the final member by fishing inside the massive aquarium located in the bottom right corner of the zoo hub.

Fare Thee Well

Find a dead taxi passenger during the taxi missions and flush their body down one of the porta-potties scattered around the Downtown area to grab this achievement.

Phony Hawk

You must successfully complete three of Slugstar Jr’s races within each of the game’s hubs.

Slugstar Jr’s Locations:

1. Circuit Arcadia: Look straight to the right of your City Plaza spawn point.
2. Harbor: Find him standing next to the fountain directly in front of the cruise ship dock entrance.
3. Zoo: He stands right in front of the gift shop on the left side.

Pro Skater

You must complete each teen’s skating challenge across every hub.

Skate Park Locations:

1. Circuit Arcadia: Spawn at the Riverwalk, turn completely around, and walk straight through the giant fan to locate the skate park.
2. Harbor: Walk directly behind Reptical’s skate shop.
3. Zoo: Look to the immediate right of the bounty hunter museum.

Throne of Games

You must collect all six retro game cards hidden throughout the world.

• Game 1 (Gourmet Warriors): You will find this card sitting on the left side of Jorb.
• Game 2 (B.O.B.): Walk inside the movie theatre and look on the left side of the main room.
• Game 3 (Donkey Trek): Head to the back left corner of Spencers. You must purchase this card for exactly 5000 coins.
• Game 4 (Super 3D Noah’s Ark): Go into the comedy club and perform some standup comedy on the stage. Once you finish your routine, a secret door will open up to reveal the game inside.
• Game 5 (Bible Adventures): Walk into the right bathroom inside the Liquid Nights club. Locate the cool hole inside the very last stall and interact with it. The stall door will automatically open up and reveal the hidden game card.
• Game 6 (Radical Rex): Enter the Human Exhibit at the zoo and solve the Sheath puzzle. This unlocks a nearby cage containing the game card. If you cannot get inside the exhibit, use the glob outside to force the door open by shooting it with Sweezy.

8-Bit Warrior

This final achievement requires very little effort. Go straight to your personal room inside the quarters. Look directly on top of your television to find a broken game card. Grab this broken card, walk downstairs, and insert it directly into the Bounty Hunter arcade machine. Simply playing the broken game should unlock this achievement instantly.

Pro Trick: The game’s unique fish counter can act buggy at times. If you still see shiny fish swimming at a fishing spot, you definitely do not have all the unique fish from that location yet! Additionally, if you run low on balls for the crane machine, simply reload the Quarters to make them respawn. Finally, do not stress about your performance at the skate parks; you can get the absolute worst score and still earn the Pro Skater achievement.
