Low-rework completion route
- Use an early save for First Blood, Still Breathing and Relentless.
- Buy arsenal items across the story while recording every category.
- Target Silenced, Freed and Last Performance when their enemies appear.
- Preserve the final story save so the three endings can be planned without repeating unrelated unlocks.

Achievement verification notes
The official Steam listing shows ten achievements. The names and conditions above are cross-checked against the Destructoid completion table and a dated Steam Community guide. Combat methods are player-tested rather than official balance documentation, so re-check them after patches.

Three endings
Grave Decision conflicts with the two “do not call Clyde” endings. Plan the final branch before Shift 12.

Prepare an early Hunt with teammates and damage tools ready; the requirement is to finish within 30 seconds.
