A Guide to all the Achievements in Two Point Museum, with some tips/tricks I hope are helpful.

The Achievements that follow the Game Quest objectives are currently a bit bare bones, I'm working on more explanations/step by step, but I don't have this complete yet.

If anyone has any suggestions/additions let me know and I can add them in!

Some quick info about Buzz/Exhibit Quality as they can affect a number of Achievement objectives

Buzz is obtained from viewing Exhibits and Interactive displays. To increase Buzz, here are some general tips:

• Have higher quality exhibits.
  
• Ensure your Exhibits are fully decorated and their Buzz Bonuses are met
  
• Use speakers to increase the buzz of Exhibits
  • nb make sure you set the audio to the correct theme in the item menu.
• Install perks that increase Exhibit Buzz
  
• Run tours that include Exhibits with high buzz
  
• Use marketing campaigns to increase the Buzz of your museum/exhibits
  
• Place 'Judgement Clouder' Exhibits (Custom Contraption, blueprints found at the Chemical Labs on in Bungle Burrows) around your museum and set them to increase Buzz

Each Exhibit can be Average, Great, Epic or Pristine. The higher quality an Exhibit is, the greater Buzz it gives off.
When sending out an Expedition the base Quality of an Exhibit can be of a maximum Quality determined by the Survey level.
Nb - this is the maximum quality, the Exhibit can still be lower than this.

• Survey 1: Great
  
• Survey 2: Epic
  
• Survey 3: Pristine

To increase the Survey Level use Survey Scanner Cargo items, send Experts with Survey Skills training and/or send 'Detailed' expeditions.

Sending higher level staff appears to increase the likelihood of finding higher Quality Exhibits, but I'm not sure enough of this mechanic to be able to say how this works. If you're seeking Pristine exhibits and have a range of Staff options, I'd go for the higher level.

Events, Dilemmas and Length of Expedition can affect the possible Quality of the Exhibit Found.

• Events
  • When setting up the Expedition, check the possible events that may occur. Depending on Staff level, training, season or Cargo Items, Events can be negated or become possible.
• Dilemmas
  • Sometimes an Expedition will encounter a Dilemma, depending on your choice these can affect the Quality of the Exhibit.
• Length
  • Detailed Expeditions take a longer time to complete, however will increase the Exhibit Quality by 1.

An example of how these can interact
An expedition is sent to a Point of Interest with Survey 2, allowing an Epic Exhibit to be found.
An Event causes it to lose a level in Quality to a Great Exhibit.
The Expedition was Detailed, increasing the Quality back to Epic.

• Complete a Dinosaur Bones Exhibit

Dinosaur Bones Exhibits are found in pieces, and each subsequent expedition to the Point of Interest that finds more Bones will add them to the exhibit. Once one has been completed, it will start a new one. Dinosaur Bone Exhibits are not findable at different levels of Quality, instead the quality increases as you Complete the Skeleton.

The first Point of Interest where you can find Dinosaur Bones is Rib Row, although you could Complete this goal with any skeleton from any location.

To unlock Rib Row

• Complete 2 expeditions to Greasy Fields
  
• Display 150 total Buzz

The first two Dino Bones exhibits you can find are the Bouldadillo and the Sharpontops.
The Bouldadillo requires two parts, and the Sharpontops three.Keep sending expeditions to find a complete skeleton!
Nb - as they are partial exhibits, the quaility you find will not affect the Exhibit, and so Detailed Expeditions/Increased Survey level will not have an impact.

• Complete Chapter 1 of Memento Mile Museum

To achieve this, get your first star in Memento Mile Museum, the goals are pretty self explanatory, but I've detailed them below

• Discover a Pristine Quality exhibit on an expedition.

Quick tips:

• Negate events that would decrease Exhibit Quality
  
• Send Staff/Cargo that will allow Events that would increase Exhibit Quality
  
• Send Detailed Expeditions

See the more detailed Quality explanation at the beginning of this guide for more information about quality.

• Lose a staff member on an expedition.

Any MIA event on an exhibition can cause a staff member to be lost, ensure you are not negating it due to Staff Training/Level.

• Cure an illness or injury by sending staff on an expedition to Remedial Springs.

Once a staff member has contracted an illness/injury, send them to the Remedial Springs (Bone Belt) POI to be cured.

• Unlock 25 expedition points of interest (POIs)

Progress through the campaign to unlock Points of Interest. Each one will have a goal that you can pin to focus on unlocking. There are more than 25 points of interest on the Bone Belt Map alone.
Nb - I'm aiming to update this with a list of the easiest/quickest to unlock POI's

• Have a guest reach 2,000 Buzz.

Guests will naturally reach higher levels of Buzz as your Museum increases in Size/Level

Some Tips:

• Have many high quality exhibits in your museum
  
• Run tours with high Buzz
  
• Ensure your exhibits are well decorated and their Buzz bonuses are met
  
• Use speakers (set to the correct theme) to enhance the Buzz of exhibits.
  
• Use Judgement Clouders (Custom Contraptions) to increase the Buzz of exhibits.
  
• Run Marketing Campaigns to increase the Buzz of exhibits.
  
• Install Perks that Increase the Buzz of Exhibits.

• Catch a thief who has stolen an exhibit.

Once an exhibit has been stolen, have a Security Guard catch them and return the exhibit.

Some Tips

• Place Security Archways, Chairs and Cameras around your museum to catch thieves.
  
• When a thief has been spotted pick up a Security Guard and place them next to the thief (sometimes the guard assigned to catch them can be the other side of the museum).
  
• Keep an eye out for the 'whirlwind' animation of a Thief changing their outfit from a guest, or the vacuuming animation of the thieves guns.

• Complete 20 Workshop Projects.

Once unlocked, use the workshop to make 20 items.

• The Survey Scanner can be built for $2,500, so for $50,000 you can complete this Achievement

• Earn $10,000 from Sponsored exhibits.

Sponsorships can be found in the Finances tab. Accept offers and place the item in your Museum.

Nb- I've found when loading into a museum/moving Sponsorship items, sometimes Sponsorship page thinks I haven't accepted the offer, and so I don't receive the payments I should. Keep an eye on your sponsored items, and if guests are viewing them but no money amout appears above their heads indicating payment, check the Sponsorship tab under Finances.

• Install 3 perks on a single exhibit.

A Pristine Exhibit is required to install perks, once you have one in your museum, click on it to install perks.
Further perk slots are opened once the previous perk has been installed.

• Have a level 3 Custom Contraption, Science exhibit.

Tips:

• Increase Custom Contraption Levels by completing their optional goals.
  
• Many of the early contraptions can be levelled simply by having guests view them. The Spa point (I believe) is the easiest, initially only needing 15 guests to view it to reach level 2.
  
• Once you have reached level 3 for a contraption, build and place the exhibit.

nb - I am working on a list of all Custom Contraptions/their build costs/objectives to increase their level, once this is completed I will add it in here.

• Have a guest be eaten by a Chomper Pit exhibit.

Steps

• Unlock the Chomper Jungle (Bone Belt)
  
• Send Expeditions and find the Chomper Pit.
  
• Place in your museum and guests will be eaten by it.

• Reach 30 Enlightenment for any theme.

As you find and analyse Exhibits you will increase your enlightenment.
If you are focusing on this goal, pick the theme whose museum you have progressed the furthest, and continue finding/analysing Exhibits.

Nb - this one is fairly self-explanatory, if I can think of an easy way to focus/speed this up I will add it in

• Have 10 fish born at your museum.

Once you have reached Two stars on Passwater Cove you will be able to breed fish.

Place two fish of the same species (without the 'Big Fish' trait) in an Aquarium with the Egg Cup decoration and they will breed.

• Earn a gold trophy in an Exhibition Mode pop-up museum.

There are Three base-game Exhibition Pop-ups and one extra if you have Explorer Edition
A general tip for all of these - take all the loans, re-arrange the exhibits to be closer to each other, and if you have time, you can build Workshops to make additional Interactive Exhibits.

• Receive $22,500 donations while protecting the exhibits from being stolen.

Tips:

• Move all your exhibits into the same area, I tend to use the space occupied by the bones and plants initially.
  
• Hire as many security as you can, place cameras everywhere.
  
• When a thief is detected, pause, then pick up/drop a security guard on them, rather than waiting for them to respond.
  
• Add in tours to increase guest experience and make the museum free - you're only there for a year and don't need the income but guests like it being good value.
  
• I usually Zone the ticket booth area and place 3-4 Security there to catch theives as they enter and be ready to pick up/drop elsewhere if needed.
  
• Decrease the number of loos, place cameras/security archways outside to catch Boggymen.
  
• Golden Molers come up as 'Guest Archetype' on their guest type, so when they're targeting you, put the game in slow speed, watch the guest list and find them as soon as they pop up.
  
• In the top-down view, if you can fit all the exhibits into one screen, you should be able to see if anyone changes outfit/starts using the vacuum gun.

• requires $100,000 gained from farming fish.

Tips:

• Meet the Bonus Objectives for more fish
  
• Build a Workshop and make nets to increase fish caught on expeditions
  
• Send expeditions to get fish that will breed, use nets to get two of a species, target Points of Interest that only give fish.
  
• Remember that fish will be sold once farmed, so you will only get large breeding populations if you catch them yourself.
  
• Make sure all fish are in aquariums large enough for them to have room to breed.

• Requires generating 80,000 Guest Buzz

Tips:

• Build as many marketing rooms as you can and hire/train as many staff as possible.
  
• Generate extra buzz by running high Buzz tours and ensuring exhibits are well decorated/Buzz Bonuses are met.
  
• Build a workshop and build Interactive Displays for extra Buzz.
  
• Use speakers/perks to increase the Buzz of Exhibits.
  
• Set the marketing campaigns to auto-renew.

Explorer Edition Only

• Requires finding a specific Exhibit within 1,080 days

Tips:

• Take the loan and buy a second helipad.
  
• Start by checking/pinning the Unlock Objectives for the Obstructions
  
  • Curtain Corner: Museum rating above 55%
    
  • Toxic Traps: Display 5 Prehistory Exhibits
    
  • Pain Forest: Turn a quarterly profit over $5000
    
  • Crumbling Plumet: Run a tour with a rating over 4.0
• Also focus on levelling up your staff as the Troll temple requires Level 4 staff - Prehistory Expert, Botany Expert, Security Guard x2 and Janitor.

• Display an exhibit from 6 different themes in one museum.

Here are some Points of Interest that are easy to visit to obtain Exhibits. The first table contains Points of Interest by theme, then I have listed the Points of Interest that are unlocked on the same map as each Museum.
Also for Science - If you have at least one star on Bungle Wasteland you will unlock the blueprint for the Spa Point, the cheapest Custom Contraption to build, and can do so on any map.

Here are some suggestions of which Points of Interest contain Exhibits of other themes

Wailon Lodge - Netherworld Map

Memento Mile - Bone Belt Map

Passwater Cove - Two Point Sea Map
For Prehistory - Soggy Grotto (Two Point Sea)/Volcanic Springs(Two Point Sea)/Wetlanteans Wilderness (Two Point Sea)/Darkest Depths (Two Point Sea) also have a chance of prehistory exhibits.

Bungle Wasteland - Bungle Burrows Map

Pebberley Heights - Known Universe Map

• Train a member of staff as much as possible.

Have a staff member reach level 20 and have every training slot be filled.

To reach level 20 staff need to gain XP. They can do so by completing their normal duties and going on expeditions.
Some tips:

• Staff with the Bookworm trait gain XP faster.
  
• Certain Illnesses will stop XP gain.
  
• Install perks that increase XP during restoration.
  
• Experts gain XP while they are analysing exhibits. If you don't upgrade your Analyser/add items that will increase speed, the Experts will earn more XP as they are taking longer.
  
• Similarly the Workshop gives XP while working, so staff will gain more XP if you do not upgrade the Workbench/add items that increase speed.
  
• Send staff on Expeditions with the Cargo Item Journal, which increases XP by 15%
  
• Staff being cured of Illnesses/Curses will gain XP from these expeditions.

The following POI's give XP as Rewards
