Overview
This guide describes how to get specific achievements in the game - and only that, it is not a walkthrough through the whole game.

Feel free to ask if you're stuck though, but some answers can be already found on the forums.

The game offers only one save but you can get all achievements with it - just don't miss the achievements (they do not exlude themselves) and remember to get the bad ending first and then load the save before it .

If you miss an achievement that could only be done at specific point and save after, then sadly you will have to play from the start to that point to get it (luckily it's not hard after you played the game once and know what to do)

I made this guide from my memory so if there are any mistakes feel free to tell me.

Pre-ending achievements
Tidy Boy Yeah, clean up after your colleagues! They'll appreciate it for sure, right?

Take the wrench in the first location.

Browser History Now you know what your BF is googlin' when you're not lookin'.

Check computer at home.

A Good Boy That dog sure is a good boy!

(Missable) Talk to the dog near your home.

Smartphone not Smart Yeah, those things aren't so smart without a data plan. But nice try.

(Missable) Use the "Jefferson Sinclaire" thought on your phone.

Sock Loser You'll figure it out eventually!

(Missable) You need to mark the way with socks wrong enough times, mark the wrong way and pick the dropped socks until you get the achievement (it pops up when you pick up the sock)

Wrong Kind of Water Nice thinking, but you'll need crying-related water.

(Missable) Use a wrong kind of water on the big statue - i used water from pond in the park near the church but the one around the cross should work too.
Just get it with the cup as you would do with the correct one and pour to the blue bowl.

Bad Ending Yep, it's the bad one. Congrats!

(Missable) Get bad ending - when you find your BF just go straight to his mom.
Good Ending Path Achievements
These are only available once you get to the good ending path.

How to get to the good ending path:

First a hint:
To talk with your BF about a specific thing in the world, you have to take the thought about him from the inventory and hover it over the thing you want to talk about.

And now a full spoiler:
When you find your BF, talk all the options you have with him and talk with him about the big statue - he should no longer be translucent after that. Then proceed to his mom, same as in the bad ending.

Guillotine Time Those things are kinda scary, actually.

(Missable) During the first memory after you already know what happened, pick the third (wrong) option: "Let's take back the means of production! Huzzah!"

Only in your MIIIND Not funny.

(Missable) In the memory in the park, keep talking to your BF until he starts to say he exist only in your mind and dissapears.

Tidy Boy Ex The trees thank you for recycling by rustling their leaves excitedly.

(Missable) Recycle 3 cans in the machine near the bar - first one is in the bin near, second in the water around the cross, third is in the last memory.

Giver of Tips The service industry employees say 'thanks'!

(Missable) Give the money you get for the cans to the girl behind the bar.

Good Ending Now that's more like it!

Finish the game with good ending - Go to the location from the last memory to find your BF in the physical world.

Okay i checked it with a help of my friend just to check when it pops up as i already had it. Turns out it's what i originally had in my guide - you need to loose the socks enough times, it was 9 or 10 when i checked it now, got the achievement when i picked that sock off the ground. I will fix it in my guide now.

Sock loser doesn't seem to be working for me. I talked to a sock once it was on the ground but nothing unlocked. Tried it on all three parts of the path before reaching the cross but had no luck with any of them.

Talk to a sock on the ground while looking for the right path to the drowned cross.
