Introduction
I highly recommend you to play through the story by yourselves, without referring to any walkthrough. Here I am posting an achievement guide just in case anyone has difficulties getting all achievements.
There are 10 achievements in total. Five of them are quite hard to miss since you just need to listen through the audio of each level once without playing with the progress bar. Three are achievements of different endings. Only two achievements need special actions and can be obtained using level select after finishing the game once.
5 'Story-related', Hard-to-miss Achievements
Twins
Empty Frame
Raven
Theater
Mental Hospital

To get these achievements, simply listen through the audio logs of each level without playing around with the progress bar at the first time. Then the achievements will pop and you can use those functions freely.
3 Ending-related Achievements
Delusion
When asked 'who are you', choose 'No. 68' then choose the ashtray on the right side.

Amnesia
When asked 'who are you', choose any option other than 'No. 68' or 'detective' (worst ending?)

Auditory Hallucination
When asked 'who are you', choose 'No. 68' then choose the pills on the left side.



*Choose 'detective' to see an ending without new achievement
2 Special Achievements
Sole Audience
Listened to Emily humming a snatch of a song from end to end. Obtainable in level 5 (mental hospital); stay in the living room for Emily's whole song. You can use fast-fowarding.

Sound Chaser
Checked each room in the five maps. Missable rooms include bathroom on the top-right in level 3 (police station) and some small rooms in level 5 (mental hospital). You can use level select to do this; for me I re-entered level 3, entered the bathroom and the achievement popped without the level being solved again.
Thanks to NEXT Studios and Thank You for Reading!
I first heard the game last month during GDC and first played it yesterday on PAX East. I love the game and purchased it immediately after its release and finished it in 5 hours (yup it's 7AM in the morning now in Boston). Unheard is different from any detective game I've played before, with the only sensory you rely on is your auditory. There's no murder weapon, no fingerprints, no solid proof. Listen carefully to every word because all you have are your ears. I really enjoy the game.
6/15/2019 Update - DLC Achievements
2 new achievements: Director and NEXT Case. Both are story related and cannot be missed.
Please refer to the DLC community guide by Bunny ·
DLC Answers (Spoilers)

Director

NEXT Case
Pops out when you solve the 3rd (final) question.

Why haven't I gotten the NEXT Case achievement when it is an unmissable story achievement? I've played through this game tree times now and didn't get it any of those times ;-;

And yes, I own the DLC, the only other achievement I'm missing is Sound Chaser TAT

Thanks Kenny. Just knowing that it has to do with "the first and third questions" makes a lot more sense now if it's for that DLC. (Now to translate the spoilers at the end of the guide...and here's to hoping for more DLCs!)

NEXT case and Director are related to the free DLC, I finished the DLC and I got these two achievements.

here's the page for the dlc https://store.steampowered.com/app/1065280/Unheard__The_Lethal_Script/?snr=1_5_1100__1100

It's in chinese only for now, and the review seems good.
here's the dev messages "Unheard's first DLC 'The Lethal Script' with Chinese dub has released for free, however, the English dub version is coming up early July due to varied schedules for voice recording. "

Yeah same here - looking forward to some DLC though!

The new achievements were added recently and so far 0% players has achieved them. I played through the game once again but have no clue how to get them. My guess is that they're probably related to the upcoming free DLC. If you have some ideas, please feel free to share them in the community hub lol

What are the two achievements on the list : NEXT case and Director? They don't appear on any achievement guide
