To help with the speed run achievement. Once you have the ship and the sea map just open the sea map from certain locations like Melee island and you end up in the ship straight away saving time.

Someone might just be looking for the solution for one thing and not want to accidently see something else. This guide was out about 24-48h after the game launched. Some people still wanted to try out stuff themselves! They might get removed eventually.

Why the frikking spoiler bars??

Knight Nevermore ♞ ♪ ♫ ♩ [author] 9 Oct, 2022 @ 4:06am

dekker, open a thread in the discussions, to report the problem to the developers. It should happen immediately when you get there. Maybe it's a bug.

dekk 8 Oct, 2022 @ 7:46pm

"Start Act 1" doesnt work for me. I've played the entire game through to the finish. Then gone back and started act 1, three times, and still the "Start Act 1" achievement won't mark as completed. WTF

GameGuidesChannel 27 Sep, 2022 @ 2:44am

Could you add chapters next to Regular & hidden achievement which they related to?

madmath 25 Sep, 2022 @ 6:10am

On hard mode, "Hot Headed" requires you to make the Scorched Alaska hot before you try eating it multiple times , otherwise the achievement won't unlock

Wulfer 25 Sep, 2022 @ 5:21am

Dead Dead Dead

It also works, when you stand underwater by the ship.
Wait the 8min, after wait the 5min, after this you will be dead and see the special endscreen.

Mitula x Amalthea 23 Sep, 2022 @ 7:46am

Thank you for the super fast answer, I found the island! :)

Maybe helpful for those who have trouble finding Cogg Island:
I was able to sail to the coordinates first, find the island and then click the answer with the coordinates, so clicking the right answer first is not necessary.
- On the sea map make sure the little arrow below your ship's icon is in the right spot. The map is uneven/crumpled so the coordinates are not in a straight line from the letter and the number. I had to dive a couple of times until it was the right.
- The trophy popped for me when I went to the islands center and read the sign that said something like "Welcome to Cogg Island".

@Mitula x Amalthea.
Thanks for the confirmation with the switching coordinates.
The first time I got the card, all 4 answers were like "bla bla". There was no K.3 or anything for me. After I finished the game, there were 3 bogus answers and one with coordinates.
So in your case, L.6 will be the correct one.
You can answer that and it should work.

You have to sail with your ship to those exact coordinates.
(Don't forget to save here)
The "island" is underwater!
Use the anchor to climb down into the water (in adv. mode use the fish to get down).
On the floor there's an area to explore.
After I went to every possible selection in that area, I got the achievement.
