About this Guide
I'll put the guide in different categories, so hope you can find the one you're looking for.

In case you need a more detailed version or just a hint how to achieve this one, let me know in the comments below and I'll see how I can help you out!

You'll find the achievements on Steam and in your game as a small button on your backpack.

Achievements for Ghost-Investigations and Provcations
1. Learning is fun


What you need to do: Finish the Tutorial. (In case you need help, I uploaded a guide for it.)




2. I'm always cold

4. Now I've seen it all

What to do: Collect 400 pieces of visual evidence.

For this achievement, you need to gather 400 pieces of visual evidence. Means, you need the ghost to manifest and take a photo/video of it. It doesn't matter how many photos you take at once, since per manifestation, only 1 visual evidence does count. You can check your progress on the summary screen.



5. Now I've heard it all

What to do: Collect 300 pieces of audio evidence.

For this achievement, you need to gather 300 pieces of audio evidence. You can check your progess on the summary screen.


6. I talk to ghosts.

What to do: Successfully use a provocation 500 times.

For this achievement, you need to use the provocations sucessfully 500 times. You can enter the provocation menu with hitting F and choose the category you want to provoke out of different question-types. As soon as the icon is filled, click the left mouse button to ask a question. On your watch (either looking down while having a tool equipped in your left hand or holding left mouse button without having anything equipped) you can check if you did provoke a ghost (a dot appears on your watch). You can check your progress on the summary screen.


7. I'm getting good at this

What to do: Collect evidence while a provocation is active 500 times.

For this achievement, you need to collect evidence while a provocation is active 500 times. In this guide above, you can see how you use provocations. As soon as a dot appears on your watch, collect evidence (photo or audio) and it should increase your progress. You can check your progress on the summary screen.



8. Don't quit your day job

What to do: You passed out 10 times.

For this achievement, you need to pass out 10 times. This happens, when you have the nerve mode turned on (you can turn it on/off in the settings). Your nerve does drop, when you're either to close to the ghost, get attacked/jumped at by one, or miss to collect evidence. As soon as your nerve dropped down to 0, you pass out and wake up at the Basecamp again. The best way to do this is, increase the ghost lvl to 5, use the provocation for a manifestation and let the ghost "attack" or "jump" at you. This drops your nerve all the way down. Do this 10 times and your achievement will trigger.


9. I don't need a map

What to do: Investigate all 29 locations.

To get this achievement, you need to investigate in all 29 locations in this mansion. You'll get a new location, after you release a ghost in the "previous new location". Means, in the beginning you got the Dining Room as a ghost room, since this is the tutorial room. As soon as you finished the tutorial and released the ghost in it, it will unlock the next room, the Art Room. After you released a ghost in the Art Room, a new location will add up. So if you got new rooms in the email to investigate, always start with this one to make sure, you got a new location unlocked. You can check your progress in the summary screen.


10. Be at peace

What to do: Release 30 intelligent Ghosts.

This achievement will unlock while you're playing the game. You need to release 30 intelligent ghosts for this one. You can check your progress in the summary screen.



11. Turn the lights on

What to do: Release 30 Shadow Ghosts

This achievement will unlock while you're playing the game. You need to release 30 Shadow Ghosts. for this one. You can check your progress in the summary screen.


12. Stop the cycle.

What to do: Release 30 Residuals.

This achievement will unlock while you're playing the game. You need to release 30 Residuals. for this one. You can check your progress in the summary screen.


13. You're the best around!

What to do: Released 5 ghosts in one investigation in under 3 hours (game time).

For this achievement, you need to release 5 ghosts in less than 3 hours and leave the mansion before the clock will hit 1am. I can give you a short strategy how to get this one done. Keep rotating the rooms until you got some rooms, you're comfortable with. You can reset them with either leaving the mansion or getting back into the menu. You need to have timed investigations on (you can turn them on/off in the settings). Prepare your run with uploading all the tragic death-profiles to your deduction board. I would recommend to sort them by gender.
Then you start with the rooms, which are the furthest away, so that you have the rooms close by, close to the basecamp to save time while heading back in the end. Investigate there like, gather emf and temps and start with using the provocations. I did upload two speedruns of me investigating and will add them in this guide as well, in case you need to see how I did it.
As soon as you got emf and temps, use provocations, where the ghost has to answer about how they died/show it or what they were passionate about. At a certain point you'll know which voice lines or animations counts towards which cause of death. After that, rush to grab the relic, keep the ghosts lvl high and release it. Just wait until the ladder doesn't spark anymore after the light did appear, grab your tools and move to the next location. In case you need more help with this one, just let me know. I can check if I can help you somehow.

The relic spot for the residual was kinda unlucky, but that happens!


14. I've been doing this for a while

What to do: Release any type of ghost 150 times.

This achievement will unlock, while you're playing the game. You need to release 150 ghosts. You can check your progress in the summary screen.
"Collection" and Map Achievements
Here I'll add all the achievements, which you can get to every moment of the game (some luck based, though!). You do not need to investigate to get them.

15. 19 ways to die

What to do: Read all 19 deaths

For this achievement, you need to open the "Fallen Apple" App on your Laptop and open/read all the newspaper articles on the family members profile. Mostly you can find out if it's a newspaper if the title indicates something tragic to happen (for example : "Host_Murdered" or "Lethargic_Reaction_Leads_To_Death" or so). You need multiple "sessions" to get all of them. You can check your progress in the summary screen.



16. Meow Meow

What to do: Take a photo of Mouse.

In the mansion, you can find a ghost of a cat. She has 3 possible locations to appear and doesn't has any influence on the story. It's really rare that she does spawn, so it could take a few sessions until you're able to get her. I'll name the 3 locations in here, if you need more details on where to find her, I'm going to work on a guide for her next. So check my guides within the next days, if you can't find her at all.

1. Location: Walking up the stairs, coming from the Library Lounge. She is between the table and the couch on the 3. Floor (in the stairwell).

2. Location: Pass the East Bedroom, she's on the "balcony" above the museum. Walk all the way to the end of it and she'll be next to the carpet on the ground.

3. Location: Take the stairs, either from the weapons-room in the Library or the stairs directly in the Library. She'll be in front of the small room, above the weapons-room.


17. I'm a bookworm

What to do: Collect all of the Archives

For this achievement, you need to play through the entire game, almost. You need to find all the archive notes. I uploaded a guide with all the archive locations and the puzzle solutions, in case you are stuck. You need to unlock new locations to be able to unlock new chapters for the archives. In the guide, you'll find more about it. You can check your progress in the summary screen.


18. Jack of all trades

What to do: Pick up all 50 relics

For this achievement, you need to pick up all 50 relics, which you can find all over the mansion. It's enough to grab them and lay them down again. I uploaded a guide with all the relic locations, in case you can't find the relic you're missing for it. You can check your progress in the summary screen.



19. Quite the Genealogist.

What to do: Upload all 60 Family Names to Deduction Board

For this achievement, you need to upload all 60 family names on the deduction board. It's enough to head into the mansion, upload all profiles with a different last name and head out of the mansion again. You'll need some sessions to get all the different names. You can check your progress in the summary screen.
