Achievement Quick Guide

There are 28 Steam achievements in Early Access 0.7. This guide walks through them in chase order, grouped by category. For an interactive tracker that suggests your next 3, use the Achievement Roadmap.

Story (8)

Story achievements gate themselves on chapter completion. The chain is roughly: First Harvest → First Night → End of Autumn → Through the Cold → Lord of the Mansion. Two off-chain achievements (Hold the Line and Festival King) hinge on specific autumn events.

The First Blessing achievement is easy and unlocks a small benefit chain with Father Aldred — do not skip it.

Collection (6)

These cluster late. Most require having done some baseline farming, fishing, or cave exploration:

Green Thumb — Grow every crop. The cursed-radish is the catch; you need it to appear, which means a winter cycle on cursed soil.
Old Hook — Catch every fish added in the 0.7 fishing patch.
Hoarder — Own one of every furniture item. The prayer altar is unlocked via Father Aldred only.
Ichor Collector — 10 vials, most reliably from Cave 3-4 and the mansion.
Scholar of the Curse — Sell every category of cursed material to Esa.
Altar Builder — Build the prayer altar (requires First Blessing).

Combat (5)

First Blood is trivial. The boss kills (Cave 3 → Cave 4) gate themselves. Fifty Demons is grindy; track it casually rather than chasing it. Spirit Banisher requires First Blessing and a blessed cleaver — do not attempt with the lantern spike.

Five “loyal” or “friendly” relationship achievements:

Friend of the Town — at least 5 NPCs to “friendly” band.
Aldred’s Apprentice — Father Aldred loyal.
Across the River — Jenra friendly.
Mira’s Listener — Mira loyal.
Margit’s Regular — Margit loyal.

Use the Trust Tracker tool to see how close you are to each band.

Hidden (4)

Hints — not full spoilers:

??? — Try keeping a vial of ichor for yourself, just once. The librarian notices.
??? — Refuse every tithe for a full season. The Baron responds.
??? — Spare a boss you were sent to kill. Branch consequence is severe.
??? — Eat the cursed radish. Yes, really.

The hints above are inferred from genre framing in press coverage; Phase 0 audit will pin them down.

Suggested chase order for an efficient first run

First Harvest, First Night, First Blood (free over week 1)
First Blessing, Altar Builder, then Aldred’s Apprentice in parallel with story chapters
End of Autumn, Through the Cold, Lord of the Mansion (the spine of the run)
Hidden achievements as you naturally hit their triggers
Collection achievements last — they need a full year cycle
