Most of achievements have descrition of what to do, but still =))

All chievements, exept Multiplayer section, can be done in Singleplayer with one "Stupid AI" (sometimes with 3 bots if needed more players). For some of achievements you'll need "Normal AI"
Some tips about bots
Big thanks to developer Qfasa for some explanations
  • The main difference between stupid and smart bots is that at the beginning of a turn, if a smart bot has no plan, it checks its hand and decide 'I will go in that location and play that card'. Then it utilizes this plan which allows smart bots to reach any location on the field.

    Stupid bot checks its hand every turn for a card that it can play right now. If there is no such card, it moves without any further plans but it won't go on bribes if they are avoidable.

    Easy to notice, that for a stupid bot it would be hard to get into a situation where it can immediately play an Astral card – this is why they almost never go there. Not because they don't know how, but because their simple logic rarely provides them such opportunity.

    If a stupid bot stays at a spot from where it can reach Astral in one turn + it has a card to actually reach it in one turn + it has a card to play there, the bot will go there. But usually this doesn't happen because Astral is a location that demands more planning and preparing than a stupid bot does.

  • AI in challenges is different from the usual "stupid" and "smart" bots. This is why the logic "bots are trained to play against real players" isn't applicable outside of those challenges. The AI is different when bots play a custom session (or replace a disconnected player) and when they play challenges. In normal sessions, bots don't make difference between real players and other bots when they choose a target.
Singleplayer achievements pt.1

Blitz!
Win a session for 20 score in 30 rounds or less.

Just be quick and play cards with best price/points ratio. Some practice and you'll get it.


Governor
Win the Elections.

Play cards with Votes. Or you can grab them from opponent with some cards or in The Court. If you have more Votes than your opponents - you'll win elections.


Good Plan!
Play 3 cards in one turn (cards used for movement do not count).

Just collect 3 "A Day at the Office" cards and play them in one turn.
Yes you can, because each "Day" allows you to play another office card.

P.S. Also you recieve "Monday starts on Saturday" secret achievement


Combo Mastermind
Play 4 cards in one turn (cards used for movement do not count).

Just collect 3 "A Day at the Office" and 1 other office cards and play them in one turn.
Yes you can, because each "Day" allows you to play another office card.

P.S. Also you recieve a "Good Plan!" regular and "Monday starts on Saturday" secret achievements


Combo Guru
Play 5 cards in one turn (cards used for movement do not count).

First of all you need "The Accelerator" card, which allows you to play another card in 1 turn. Then collect 3 "A Day at the Office" and 2 other office cards and play them in one turn.
Yes you can, because each "Day" allows you to play another office card (so you play 4 cards normally + 1 from accelerator).

P.S. Also you recieve a "Good Plan!", "Combo Mastermind" regular and "Monday starts on Saturday" secret achievements


Unachievable Achievement
Play 6 cards in one turn (cards used for movement do not count).

First of all you need "The Accelerator" permanent, which allows you to play another card in 1 turn. Then collect 3 "A Day at the Office", "Spin" and 1 other office cards. The trick is - you play 5 cards at office then run to Plant and play 6th card there.
Yes you can, because each "Day" allows you to play another office card (so you play 4 cards normally + 1 from accelerator).
And yes it's about random, but still =))
If you have problems with travelling to plant - try to prepare "Simersault" card as well. Bonus move is better than nothing and with Sault you can run even to Dump =))

OR, you can choose Manager character and turn on special abilities. His ability allows you to play one more office card at office. So, first you need "The Accelerator" permanent, which allows you to play another card in 1 turn. Then you need 3 "A Day at the Office" and 3 other office cards. Mechanics: "Days" allow you play 4 office cards, "Accelerator" allows you play 5th card, Manager ability allows you play 6th card. That's it!

P.S. Also you recieve a "Good Plan!", "Combo Mastermind", "Combo Guru" regular and "Monday starts on Saturday" secret achievements

Secret achievements
There're clues on each achievement picture. So, it's quiet easy to understand what to do.


Lucky Devil
The devil didn't get much, but who cares?

Sacrifice Lucky Potion permanent effect with "A Sacrifice" card in Inferno.

It's not so easy as it sounds. You can't just enter Inferno, because permanent efect of Lucky Potion protects you from Misfortunes, and in front of Hell there's such a tile. So you need to skip this tile and you can make it with one of the following ways:
  • Fast and Fair - most obvious way, don't loose permanent whlie traveling to Marketplace;
  • Investigation - if you are lucky to discover Inferno card in other players hand;
  • Somersault + Cheating - jump on Gamble tlie after Inferno and go back with Cheating;
  • Karma! and Framed! misfortunes - can help you on your way to Inferno;
  • Lucky Potion + Lucky Potion - with 2 effects of Lucky potion you can go straight over misfortune tile in front of Inferno. You'll have 1 spare effect for sacrifice;

It's not the full list of "Inferno" ways. You can write other ways in comments and I'll add them.



The Most Honest Gremlin in the World
Oftentimes, one must keep a lot of things in secret in order for one's honesty to become fully appreciated.

Get rid of 5 crimial\secret cards with "An Honest Crook"

First of all obtain "An Honest Crook" and 4 criminal\secret cards. When you have them - start your long journey through police tiles. The key is to recieve last criminal\secret card when you enter police tile. Then use "An Honest Crook" and you'll get achievement.

Note: collecting secret cards is better, because you won't get jailed when other players reveal your hand



A Gremlin Coup
I'm not a tyrant, I'm just being fair.

Play "The Usurper" card right after Elections

First of all - obtain "The Usurper" card. Then keep an eye on "Rounds to elections" counter. When elections start, you must be 1 step from Inferno. On your turn go to Inferno and play "The Usurper" card. That's all folks =))

Note: as of clue on achievement picture - it must be 20s round to elections when you play "The Usurper" card



Monday starts on Saturday
"A passion for work is a rather rare mental disorder" (from The Gremlin Dictionary).

Play 3 "A Day at the Office" cards in one turn

Just get 3 "A Day at the Office" cards, go to office and play them at once, because each "A Day at the Office" card allows you to play another office card.



A Long Shortcut
Run, gremlin, run!

Take 3 turns in a row

There are several ways to get this achievment:
  • 2 Somersault - First play 2 Sault'os, then make regular move;
  • Somersault + Spin - Enter office with Sualt, then play Spin, then make regular moves. Or you can enter office with regular move, then play Spin and then Sault;
  • Toxic Waste + Somersault - enter The Dump, use Toxic Waste, then Somersault



Who's the fairest of them all?
Beauty, as you know, requires sacrifice... Preferably a sacrifice made by your competitors.

Recieve money from 3 or more opponents with "The Ring of Charm"

Wait until you have less evil points. Go to Treasury and play "The Ring of Charm".



Fresh Treasure!
It's quite possible that treasureseeking may become a new kind of gremlin sport.

You must play "The Treasureseeker" card and get to The Treasure in one turn

Playing "The Treasureseeker" is easy. Harder to move to The Treasure in same turn. Here we go:
  • If you have "The Accelerator" - play "A First Class Teleporter" right after "The Treasureseeker"
  • If you don't have "The Accelerator" - you need "Somersault", "The Treasureseeker", any card >4, "The Stash". Enter The Plant with "Somersault" and play "The Treasureseeker", run with >4 card to The Dump and play The Stash;



Get Lucky
This gamble wasn't easy, but luckily it paid off!

Play "Easy Gamble" and "A Second Chance" in one turn

First of all we need to play "The Accelerator". Then obtain "Easy Gamble" and "A Second Chance". What's left is to travel to Casino and play both cards



Greedy Gremlin
Money, money, money!

Get only 2x income from Income spots.

It not so easy as it seems. Just start "15 points" game. Think 2-3 moves ahead. Plan how to end turn on income or jump over it. If you just pass through - you won't get achievement.

P.S. Remember, Gremlin - only 2x Income!! =))



Secret Achievement
The first rule of the secret achievement is: do not talk about the secret achievement.

First of all you need to play "The Secret Society" card in The Bank. Then play 7 secret cards (with gray background) and you'll get it
Workshop/chests achievements

Collector
Add 10 items to your collection.

As you recieve chest add items to your collection. Don't know about Steam-market items.


Master Builder
Create an item using a blueprint.

Find blueprint in chest or buy it. Then just create item - that's it.


I wonder what's inside?
Convert an in-game item into charges.

When you recieve item from chest press "Convert to charges" button


Experimenter?
Play in a session with a mod of the game (available via Steam Workshop).

Enter Workshop, find desired mod and just play it.
Smiles

There 3 ways to unlock smiles:
  • Achievements
  • DLC
  • Seasons

1. Achievements
  • Nine Circles of Hell unlocks "Inferno" smile
  • Frequent Flyer unlocks "Fairy" smile
  • It's all mine! unlocks "Junk" smile

2. DLC
Each DLC unlocks group of smiles. So, it depends on you. To be or not to be! =)))

Just wanting to point out, that Spin/Summersault or other extra-turn cards do not help for the "combo guru" and "unachievable achievment", since all cards have to played in the same turn, the extra turn granted by those cards count as a seperate turn. The best way i think that works for "Unachievable" would be: Manager (with skills) , 3x Day at the Office, 2 other office cards and The Police Dirigible. Any other transport-card would work as well, Police Drigible is better usable for it, basically, you gather all the necessary cards except for 1 office card, than hop around the police spaces till you draw your last needed office card, teleport to the office, and play all 3 spins and 2 office card. You could also gamble a bit with having custom offer as one of the other 2 office cards and hope, that you can draw the last needed office card with it.

Add me to AFW achievment. Lets make a group to complete this fast and without suffering.
jack_was 29 Sep, 2021 @ 5:06pm 
Join non-teamed 6-player sessions and you'll eventually get AFW. It worked in my case and I still remember that I played as the Secret Agent back then.
jack_was 25 Apr, 2021 @ 4:04am

I need few people to complete AFW achievment. Add me pls

Lucky Devil can be unlocked much more reliably using Eternal Mortgage (Pay for this card by discarding one of your active permanent cards) at the Bank. It's also convenient because the Bank is directly after Treasure so it's a straight shot.
HandOfKane 29 Jul, 2019 @ 10:23am 
Fortune also works for avoiding a Misfortune for Lucky Devil.

Note that the Collector starts with a Lucky Potion active, so you can just keep restarting a game with the Collector until you get Fortune/Framed!/Karma!. Exchange your whole hand at the start if you don't start with one to see if you get one then too.

@SouL_ReaveR
As you know Elections can happen suddenly as an effect of misfortune and some Court cards. Such incidents distort normal election schedule and cause that the Governor will be chosen again after 20 rounds from now (ie. round 7, 27 and so on). The only requirement for this achievement is to play The Usurper right after Elections regardless of current round of the session. If you do it too fast or too late you won't get the achievement.
