(In start area, there is some chance that waterfall module can spawn there, that waterfall also have a chance to contain treasure)
Boss Achievements
These types of achievements can be obtained by defeating the boss. Some might have extra conditions and can be extremely difficult.


Baby's first boss battle
Beat back Brokk the Bandit Bruiser

Defeat the first realm boss. This can be done in both singleplayer and multiplayer.
Tips: Boss attack pattern.
1. Normal swing, boss swings his bat at a large angle, triggered when the player is in attack range.
2. Bonk!, boss thrash his weapon like when badger attack, triggered when the player stand in front of him.
3. Ground slam, boss slam his bat to the ground to create pretty large area of damage, triggered when player stay near boss while doing first attack pattern.
4. Charge attack, boss charge attack to random player, trigger after doing first or second attack pattern for 2-3 times.


Tips: Enemies that spawn after boss charge attack.
Easy mode, only 1 rabbit spawn per tunnel, and 1 badger spawn.
Normal mode, 2 rabbits spawn per tunnel, and 1 badger spawn
Hard mode, 3 rabbits and 2 porcupine spawn per tunnel, and 2 badger spawn

Tips: Easy way to defeat boss.
When boss performs a charge attack, player can lure the boss to ram into tunnels (that spawn enemies) or boxes in the stage (which can provide random resources, including totems). This will cause the boss to take significant damage.
Max the "Fire spark" upgrade can also help deal significant damage to multiple enemies.


Old school
Defeat Brokk using nothing but your weapons

Defeat the first realm boss with only damage from player (boss cant take any outsource damage like from badger, ram into tunnel/box, shock totem, "Fire spark" upgrade, and "Queen bee potion" upgrade). This can be done in both singleplayer and multiplayer. Recommended to do it in multiplayer.
Tips: Stall the boss on the right side of the scene. When he tries to perform a charge attack, lure him to ram into the right wall (which deals no damage to the boss), try to max the "Combat training" upgrade (max stack at 5) which help player deal more damage.


Vive la revolution!
Dethrone Sydd, the Marsh Queen

Defeat the second realm boss. This can be done in both singleplayer and multiplayer.
Tips: Boss attack pattern.
1. Swing wand, boss swings his wand around boss area.
2. Tongue attack, boss use his tongue to attack in long straight line.
3. Dive, boss dive into water (cant take any damage right now) then emerge from water, create water wave in circle shape from inside to outside of the pond.
4. Summon wave attack, boss summon small area of wave to attack player.


Tips: Easy way to defeat boss.
Sorry, there is no easy way to beat the boss except by doing it in multiplayer.
Only player upgrade is useful for this boss. All wagon and Rosie upgrades are useless except for the "Fire Spark" tree upgrade, which can be toggled by using the "Fire Supply" upgrade (in the "Wave Defense" upgrade tree). (For multiplayer, there is "Chain heal" upgrade tree that also useful in this situation)
All upgrade from "Totem station" and "Gun turret" is out of range from boss, "Potion station" is out of reach for player.



Not rad, dude!
Avoid all of Sydd's water wave attack

Defeat the second realm boss without taking any damage from wave attack. This can be done in both singleplayer and multiplayer. Recommended to do it in multiplayer.
Tips: Try to max "Protective armor" upgrade and "Combat training" upgrade (both max stack at 5), the armor can protect player from water attack, so if you manage to get 5 armor, that mean you can take damage from water wave attack 5 times before this challenge get revoke, "Cat dodge" upgrade is pretty useful if you want to roll to avoid damage like Dark soul.
Challenge Achievements
These types of achievements can be obtained during a challenging playthrough. Some achievements might require luck or skill.


Stop--hammer time
Trick a badger into hitting multiple rabbit with one smash attack

Make badger deal damage to 5 rabbits with one smash attack, recommend to do it in ambush camp (require luck, choosing at crossroad, has red emblem with transparent sword symbol), might be better after second crossroad cause more rabbit can spawn after that

Untouchable
Complete a full run without taking damage

Complete a full run without taking any damage, this one take pretty high skill and luck. Recommended to do it in multiplayer. (Well, more player mean more DPS and more resource that can be gatherer, which can sell to make much money, which mean more upgrade that player can buy)
Tips: Some small trick that might help.
1. "Protective armor" upgrade can prevent player from taking damage (max stack at 5) and level 3 Bird shrine effect can regenerate armor to 1 every 25 second (only regenerate to 1 not by 1).
2. "Cat dodge" upgrade that make player invincible while jumping is pretty useful in this situation.
3. Max the "Fire spark" upgrade tree is pretty much necessary, it can easily annihilate any enemies that spawn at night wave by wave. ("Wave defense" upgrade is also useful)
4. It fine to play this run by choosing safe path at crossroad.

The 'Chasing Waterfalls' achie was a pain to get, spent basically hours to get.

Apart from 'Surprise' path to get into waterfalls, I also got waterfalls in 'Safecamp' (once you exit the safecamp) and 'Extra Resources' path.

Even though, the right waterfall where I found the treasure was in the end of 'Surprise' path (the bridge was broken) in my case.

@Nitram, Ah good to know. It'd be nice if the achievement description was more specific on that. Well thanks, we'll get there eventually :steamthumbsup:

@Codeknight am glad that this guide can help you with the game, but the "untouchable" require no player getting damage at all, it was confirm by dev

the most reliable tactic is use armor to prevent player from taking damage and use fire spark upgrade to CC enemies

Your guide has been very helpful, thanks for making it!

We’ve had some difficulty getting the untouchable achievement. The only thing we can think of is that either all players have to not get hit, or playing local coop messes with things. The end score shows one of us is definitely made it through unscathed. If anyone can verify this, it might be worth adding to the description you have

For the secret achievement that involved something hidden, I tried a bunch of runs taking every Surprise I could and never got lucky enough to find it. This morning I did a run and got the achievement right after the first wave of enemies (before you make your first choice about which way to go). Surprise gives you more tries at getting the right kind of scenery, but might be worth adding it can happen without being on a Surprise. It still looked exactly like your screenshot.

thank you for the info and great to hear that, sadly I cant test that out, maybe it "most" of achievement not "all" of achievement

thank you, I need to update that, boss cant take any outsource damage (like from badger, ram into tunnel/box, shock totem, "Fire spark" upgrade, and "Queen bee potion" upgrade), also it need to be done in normal difficulty
