Tracking down which inspirations you might be missing is pretty simple, thanks to being able to see the ones you own in a preallocated inventory system for it. Counting from left to right, I numbered these inspirations #01 to #18.

An inspiration can be hidden behind something and I will have an animated GIF for you. If you still need more help than I can fit into a Steam guide, I've written down timestamps of when in my attached video you can find this inspiration.

Once you have acquired all eighteen inspirations, you unlock the Others' Memories achievement. Five of the inspirations are related to rumors, also giving you Master of Rumors.

The main character starts out with a display of three full leaves of health. Each new collected health leaf obtained represents a displayed half leaf in improvement. With ten new collected leaves, you will display maximum health at eight full leaves in the top-left of your screen.

The biggest difficulty with finding leaves is that they tend to be hidden, so for your convenience I've created animated GIFs to show the hidden entrances when needed. If you still need more help than that, I've written down timestamps of when in my attached video you can find this leaf (though in that video, the chapters are numbered based on when I finally found them).

Once you have acquired all ten leaves, you unlock the Dawn Power achievement.

Solution: Press the left-most pillar once, the second pillar once, the third pillar three times, and the fourth pillar once. Draw or screenshot the shape you see on the wall.

The second gnome is in the top-left of the Old Witch's Forest behind a high flower you can whack with the Dark Star. Write or screenshot the numbers of turns for each of the four dials in the gnome's note.

When back at the gnome treasury,

1. start with the shape of the zero rune as defined by the first red light gnome,
   
2. and turn it as many cycles as was left by the second forest gnome.

Some achievements cannot be missed as you normally complete the game. They are:
While spoilers are expected in a guide to getting 100% in a game, in the interests of keeping spoilers to a minimum, no further information is necessary for these achievements.

Counting the collectibles and mandatory achievements mentioned above, this leaves the following remaining achievements:

---

Don't kill a single gnome
Gnomes are easily avoidable by rolling past them. Once you unlock The King (mandatory achievement), you'll also be given this.

---

Defeat 100 enemies
Defeat 500 enemies
You are very likely to obtain these two during the course of the game. If you have somehow managed not to while finishing the game, go back and kill something.

---

Help Jing to reach the Forest Cabin
Whether or not you see Jing in White Rock, you will find him in the Deep, needing nectar. Once healed, Jing will wait for you in the Old Witch's Forest below the player's cabin, and will increase your maximum stock of nectar by one.

---

Purchase 10 nectars from Leopold
As of version 1.007, Leopold can be found in the forest cabin once you have defeated all of the bosses. Otherwise, he will be camped outside each boss room.

---

In the Royal Palace, you will arrive in a large banquet hall with three chandeliers. On the right side of the room is a destructible wall hiding a plate of food, which automatically refills your nectar one-time only and awards you this achievement.

---

Also in the Royal Palace. Head straight east from the crystal nearest the queen, and you will find yourself in a tall room. Check the top-left for a destructible wall.

---

During the game, a maid will appear in front of the princess's room within Top City. Listen to her story to unlock this achievement.

---

After resolving the issue with the Old Witch, return to Dana and listen to her story.

---

Defeat the Moon Trinity
Acquire all the Spells
Upgrade all the Spells
Use Orb of Wrath on a tablet to reveal the Moon Trinity, who guards the last spell in the game. Victory also nets you Lunar Visitor. Upgrading all four spells from the Top City's trader will unlock Advanced Magic.

---

Discover the entire map
Secret passages might only have only gold in them, so it's possible to get this achievement before collecting all the items. Using my maps will be the easiest way to uncover all of the secrets.

---

Buy All Items in the Shops
Collect all the Items
Acquire 100% Items, Inspirations, Spells and Leaves
The game does not feature a lot in the way of extra, non-shop items. If you've accomplished everything above (including shopping), the only things I haven't mentioned are:

1. an extra red thread behind the elevator leading to Top City, and
   
2. a blue thread (hard to miss) two rooms to the right of the first Top City save crystal.

Out of this list, the only achievement I would be careful about is Gnomes' Friend. With this guide in your hands, I know you can do it!

Steam's guide-writing tools are definitely harrowing. The first version I had to absolutely eradicate because I kept getting "error code 15" and I was anxious in this second attempt as I never know when it will strike again (though I have conjecture on how it started in the first place, it's not something I want to purposefully reproduce). Additionally, I had a lot of difficulties optimizing these GIFs because there is a file size limit, so some of them have lower frames per second than others. However, I offer you a solution to all of these issues!

The below is my complete playthrough of Kingdom Shell of version 1.006. I get notifications when someone appreciates my first Steam guide for Sands of Salzaar, so I thought I would try my hand at writing one for Kingdom Shell after I pursued all of the achievements while recording, so I could look back at my footage and create all of these notes. Thank you for supporting my work!
