NORCO is a rich world and amazing piece of story telling.

This guide is to flesh out how you can get all the achievements in it. Ive done my best to put them in the order they become available in the game.

- Make sure to do the Monkey event at the very start of the Act if you plan to do any of the Monkey related achievements.
- Dont pet the cat more than once if you plan to get the Dogs and Cats achievement.
- Make sure to give Santa a dollar if you want to get the HO HO HO achievement
- Make sure to ask Dallas about "What would he like to be doing?" when you are sitting on the roof if you want to get the Joy! achievement

About "Bye Bye Brucey" and "Mister Monkey Man" - you get both of the achievements at once if you give the monkey to Bruce, as Webby mentioned earlier

As far as I know, you can get Cats and Dogs only in Act 2. Nice guide, very helpful!
Revo_ 20 Jul, 2022 @ 7:24am 
Thank you! I got this!

You should be able to buy the dog food if you return to the gas station after the first visit. You may need to be on the part of the story where you have to break into the refinery and have the option of trying to recruit Lucky to be able to buy it.

need help about “Cats and Dogs” in Act1, how to feed the dog? I couldn't buy dog food, and did't figure out how to join the party:zagcry:

Yes after I thought about if I really want to get those achievements now or later I decided I at least try and yes after I got into the bayou and didn´t look in my inventory I got em.
"Just don´t look and go for it." And it worked.

There is a bug report in the forums about losing the meter, but I also noticed that if you try to return the meter to the scientists before you have done the scanning that it takes the meter from you and you cant complete things.
Sven_Q45 23 Apr, 2022 @ 4:16pm 
Apperently there is a bug with the meter for the Network Trouble and Terminal Network Meltdown. Because you can loose the meter.
