Mission complete
Mission complete
Reach the end of the game having cleaned one million things.

This achievement requires you to collect 1'000'000 junk and then finish the game. The game has a lot more junk than 1'000'000, so you can leave a lot of junk behind you without worrying too much. You can get this achievement even after finishing the game once, just load your save and you're good to go.
EXTRA TIP
If you take a picture in the photo booths with the correct hat, it will give you extra junk.

You can easily get this money when the junkyard will open, or just grind some jobs, you'll get around £1000 per job at tier 3.

Around the mansion, there will be doors that will not appear on the auto map. Just enter these room and you'll get a purple question mark on the map. Find one and you'll get "It's a secret", find them all and you'll get "Top secret!".
Miscellaneous

This one is pretty easy, since you find a lot of baskets with basketballs during the game. Just get under the basket and throw the ball, you'll get the achievement after a while.

Trainspotter
Ride on all the trains.

This achievement is odd. It says you need to ride all the trains, but I got it while WATCHING them come and go in one station.

Just play an arcade game in the Arcade and you'll get the achievement.

I might be late but does anyone know how to type in the rest of the numbers for the teletext achievement. I can't type 104, 105, or 106. Its the same thing for 114, 115. Also does anyone know how to navigate the broadcasts. It would be greatly appreciated if someone helped.

hello bro, someone help me know where to find the letters horace please, thanks.
LeXofLeviafan 1 Feb, 2022 @ 11:06am 
It should be possible to Alt+F4 out of the game before it overwrites the save; but making a copy of the savefile is a good way of making sure you don't have to replay the whole game just for one achievement if you miss the timing.

Maybe they patched it, by the time I played it, it was bugged

I didn't get both achievements, when let Man in Black die. And as far as I can tell, there is no legit way to replay this fight to get other achievement, only to replay whole game. So right after winning robot fist fight, backup your saves:
C:\Users\user\AppData\LocalLow\505 Games\Horace

Also, to save him, press Up until Horace get a hold on Man's hand and start mashing Cross button (Don't know what button on keyboard).

Updated the guide with few extra tips.

If you can't get "avoid the blame" achievement because you bought out everything in Mainton already (I don't think you can get it in any other shop), go out of the town, lose a shield and get back to the shop - they will sell shields when you don't have all shields.

I got the "games master" achievement via arcade games only (the ones missing in the Mainton arcade were in other places like recreation room in Professor's factory).
Also, the description for "trainspotter" achievement currently says "Watch a train arrive and leave at any station."

The "games master" achievement unlocked for me once I got the high score for Day Off, Hungry Ghost, Dance Invader, the Rhythm game, AND "Reasonable Force" on the gameboy parody.
