How to Unlock Every Achievement in Psychopomp GOLD

Violence begets Silence

You can earn this first achievement early in the game. After you take the first key, you will proceed a little further and find the perimeter repeated. This time, however, a girl will be sitting there. To get the achievement, you must use the Smash ability on her. In general, using this ability to kill any living person will grant you this achievement.

Good Doggy

This is another simple achievement. After you open one of the early doors, you will see a dog sitting in a corner. To get the achievement, simply approach the dog and use the Touch interaction. This action will cause you to pet the dog and unlock the achievement.

Good Doggy?

You can unlock this achievement at the same time as the previous one. After finding the dog in the corner, you must interact with it in a different way. Instead of Touch, you must use the Talk interaction. Repeat the “Talk” interaction six times. After the sixth time, the dog will reveal its true face to you, and you will receive this achievement.

Place of Remembrance

To find this achievement, you must be on the “Sewage Treatment” level. As you explore this area, you will find a passage that is closed by a grate. Look to the left of the grate to find a note. To the right of the grate, you will find a lever. You must pull this lever to open the passage.

Once the grate is open, you will see a staircase on your left. This staircase leads back to the beginning of the level. You should ignore it for now. Instead, look to the right for a narrow passage. This is the path you need to take.

Proceed through the narrow passage. You will eventually encounter a monster that you must kill. After you defeat the monster, continue exploring the area until you find a statue. Approach the statue, and you will receive the “Place of Remembrance” achievement.

Key of the Mind

This achievement requires you to find your first Emerald Key. You can find these keys in any location, but there is a very fast way to get your first one.

Travel to the “Sewage Treatment” location. Look for a room that contains two bars and a note. In this same room, you will see a wall that is covered in blood. This wall also makes sounds. Approach this strange wall, which is a secret passage. This will lead you to an Emerald Key and unlock the achievement.

I HATE NEEDLES

You must complete an entire level without using any syringes for healing to earn this. This can be challenging on later levels, so it is highly recommended that you attempt this on the very first location. The first level should not be too difficult to complete without healing. You will receive the achievement after you successfully complete the level.

Egg of the Earth

This is a story-based achievement that you will unlock through normal game progression. After you clear a territory of its objectives, a special object called an “Egg” will appear in the level. You must find this Egg and use the “Touch” interaction on it. This action completes the level and grants you the achievement.

Outside the Fold

You will unlock this achievement by visiting a specific type of location. As you play the game, look at the map you use to select your next level. An additional, optional place called a “Transient Location” may appear on this map. To get the achievement, you simply need to start this additional level.

Itchy

You must find this achievement in the “Children’s Hospital” location. After you exit the elevator, you need to go a little forward. Then, turn left and go down the stairs. At the bottom, turn left again.

You will see a note on the wall. Look to the right of this note. You will see a strange-looking wall. You can break this wall using your “Smash” ability. Behind this wall, you will find a strange-shaped creature. This creature is not your goal.

You must go past this creature, either to the left or the right. At the end of this secret path, you will find your target. This is the “Tick.” Just get close to it, and you will receive the achievement.

Generational Trauma

This achievement requires you to get crushed in the factory. Travel to the “Public School” level. In this area, you will find presses on the left side. The solution here is simple. You must stand directly under one of the active presses and wait for it to come down and deal a fatal blow.

Deeper Down

This is a story-based achievement. You will unlock it naturally as you progress through the game and descend into the depths of the world.

Bubbling Places

The method for this achievement is the same as for “Outside the Fold.” As you look at your level selection map, an additional level called an “Ephemeral Location” may appear. You must go to one of these levels to get the achievement.

Broken Locale

This is the third achievement related to optional levels. Just like the previous two, you must wait for an “Aberrant Location” to appear on your map. Visit one of these special locations to unlock the achievement.

PeacefulPomp

To get this achievement, you must complete an entire level without using your Hammer. This is very difficult on most levels, as many enemies or obstacles require it.

The easiest way to get this achievement is on the level called “Instructions.” On this level, most of the opponents stand still and shoot balls at the player. There are only two enemies that can move, so you must be careful to avoid them.

To complete the “Instructions” level, you need to know the DNA sequence and the DNA rules. A note found in the comments of the original guide suggests the code is CTAG. This code is an “unhealthy” inversion of the “healthy” DNA (TCGA) based on clues about unstable DNA. With this code, you only need to turn on the three PCs to power the DNA injection machine. These PCs are relatively close to the spawn and are only guarded by turrets, which you can evade by strafing.

Awoken

This is another story achievement. After you complete six levels, a new location called “Entrance” will appear on your map. This level is linear. Proceed through it until you find a large sphere. Any contact with this sphere will grant you the “Awoken” achievement.

Last Song

You earn this achievement after you finish the game. Once the credits roll and you return to the main menu, do not exit the game. You must wait. Eventually, the standard menu music will change. You will hear a vocal version of the song “Bad Chest Feel Don’t Touch your Feet Together.” Listening to this song will unlock the achievement.

Meanwhile…

You must view the epilogue to get this achievement. After you complete the game, click the “continue” button from the main menu. An additional special location will appear on your map.

This location is a library. You must walk to the end of the path, where you will find a piece of paper. Use the “Touch” interaction to look at the paper. After this, you must return in the opposite direction, going back the way you came.

Once you return to the map, the “Entrance” location will be replaced by a new location called “Exit.” You must now go through the “Exit” level.

After a cutscene, you will appear on the surface. You should talk to the dog here. Then, you must continue through the “Meeting Place” location. When you reach the top of the staircase in this area, another cutscene will start. After the cutscene, you will get the achievement and unlock the ability to turn on third-person mode during the game.

Wrong Number

For this achievement, you must go to the “Call” tab in your menu. You simply need to make a phone call to any number. The guide suggests that 3647 is the fastest number to call.

What’s your name?

This is a collectible achievement. To earn it, you must find all six of the Emerald Keys. The original Steam guide links to a separate guide for all their locations, as they are not all listed in this one.

After you have collected all six keys, you must go to the “Home” tab in your menu. Here, you will need to walk around a 2D world. You must open a passage for yourself by navigating through the figures.

After you clear the 2D section, you will appear in the 3D world. As soon as you approach the couple in this area, you will receive the achievement.

Tracing the Fabric

This achievement requires you to play the game with a mod. The easiest way to do this is to subscribe to any mod on the Steam Workshop for Psychopomp GOLD. Then, you can load the mods in the game itself to unlock the achievement.

Alternatively, you can create a simple text file in the game’s mod folder. The folder is located at: C:\Users\***\AppData\Roaming\Psychopomp\mods
After creating a file there, you can load mods in the game to get the achievement.

Conclusion

You have now seen the path to every achievement in Psychopomp GOLD. This journey will take you through every part of the game, from its main story to its deepest secrets and optional locations. With this guide, you can successfully navigate the world, overcome its challenges, and achieve full completion. Good luck.
