This gaming guide article will provide you with all the information you need to unlock every achievement in Owlsgard. We have sorted them by chapters and noted which ones are optional, as well as the requirements for unlocking them. Keep reading to become an expert at completing all of Owlsgard’s achievements!
Introduction
I’ve divided all achievements into sections based on the chapters they can be unlocked in and whether you may skip unlocking them when playing normally. Additionally, I’ve done my best to arrange them logically within the sections, based on the likely order you’ll encounter them in as you play through the game.
Because chapter 1 and 2 share their locations, many achievements can be aquired in either chapter. I’ve sorted these into additional combined secions to make this fact clear.
With the game having two endings, there are also a bunch of achievements only relevant to one of them. Because of this, I’ve decided to split these off into a seperate section for chapter 4.
As should be obvious, this guide contains spoilers for the game’s story.
