These names and requirements come from the Steam achievement data collected on August 20, 2026. Achievement wording can change after an update, so the current Steam page should take priority if a later build differs.

Which achievements are missable?

Most of the list follows the main story. The chapter-completion achievements unlock as the route advances, while Robbie Knox - Mind Officially Blown is tied to reaching the final cutscene. The research does not support a branching achievement route, difficulty achievement, speedrun achievement, or alternate-ending achievement.

Skin Successfully Stapled! is the clearest missable. Interact with the “Thank You” note in Dick Slater’s office when the office is available. Its Steam global unlock rate was about 26.7% in the August 20 snapshot, far below the story achievements, which supports treating it as the achievement most players overlook.

Global percentages are live data rather than permanent facts. They are useful for identifying a likely sticking point, but the figures on Steam may already be different when you read this guide.

How to unlock Runebee - Jank Ya Later!

Steam describes this achievement as “Fix The Skin Stapler Tapes.” Full-game footage confirms that damaged tapes are collected during the investigation and must be repaired or reviewed as the route develops. The supplied evidence does not establish a universal code, a precise tape count, or a separate secret password.

If the achievement has not unlocked, revisit the available tape interaction before leaving the investigation route and make sure every damaged tape the story has exposed has been handled. This is a practical route check based on the recorded playthroughs, not an official troubleshooting procedure.

Are chapter achievements automatic?

The first twelve achievements correspond directly to named chapters and Aftermath sections. Closing In and the final cutscene add two more progress achievements. Current gameplay evidence indicates that these unlock through normal completion rather than optional combat challenges.

That does not guarantee an achievement will pop if the game, Steam client, or connection has a technical problem. No official achievement troubleshooting document was included in the approved research, so this page does not invent fixes such as deleting saves or editing files.

Achievement order and chapter names

The Steam list is also a useful chapter outline: Burrows Apartment, Carrion City PD, four Aftermath parts, Quick Fix, Gutters End, Luna’s Cream Filled Donuts, Underworld VHS, Lazar’s Blood Bank, Final Aftermath, Closing In, and the final cutscene. This does not create an official numbered chapter system; it only reflects the names attached to the achievements.
