Intro
Please let me know if this guide has any inaccuracies.

The only missable achievement is Chatterbox, although it seems like this achievement is currently bugged and might require another play-through either way.

For the co-op achievements, they can be done either online, via Remote Play, or by simply plugging in a second controller.

I can confirm that Chatterbox seems to be bugged. I talked to at least 8 people on my first playthrough and it didn't proc. I made a second file and got it after talking to around 11 side conversations. I can also confirm that Study Buddies appears to be bugged as well.

I wish that the game would keep a record of your best grade on an escape along with the best time that it already tracks. I know that I got an A on some courses, an A- on others, and a B+ on some of my slower courses or where I used a few too many hints, but I don't remember which levels had which scores.

You can also obtain "Musical Prodigy" on the bells during the Rival Room.

Personally had no issues with Chatterbox, making sure to visit all the areas with the person icon before moving on to the next room
