Another version (not written by me) is at http://209.130.152.147/forum/showthread.php?t=72882

Very much a work in progress (especially because I am still missing immoral and silent, but deadly)

Stray Cat 5 points
Have T. Kemper join the player as a support character.
part of the tutorial.


All Together Now 5 points
Do a 3-member Team-Up Attack.
to perform a 3-member team-up attack, tycho needs to be at least level 4 (so he has a special attack). To get people's special attack meters to increase, you

need to not attack once their regular X attack is ready. this will cause the special attack meter to start to become ready. Once all three people's meters

are ready (aka, once slowpoke tycho has stopped reading his book) press Y, select the nearest bad guy, then be sure to select the teamup icon over the bad

guy (a silhouette with the number 3 on it) and flail away.


A Winner Is You 10 points
Successfully complete the first episode.
beat t3h game


Nine Lives 15 points
Kill an enemy using T. Kemper's basic attack.
You must get an enemy down to one health point, and then attack with T. Kemper. Gabe generally does the least amount of damage per attack, then the player,

then finally Tycho. The trick is to avoid queueing up attacks against foes that have already taken damage.


Pack Rat 15 points
Find and collect all of the hidden collectibles scattered around the game.
concept art
#1 1st screen on desperation street (starting from your house, or lack thereof), 1st mailbox to right of your non-house

#5 beat the final boss

Steel Devils 15 points
Explore the world to find all the robots, and defeat them all in combat.
you will get this going for clean sweep


Pacifist 15 points
Only use counterattacks, health items, or distraction items to win one battle.
This is best done in the first fight that you do as a party. You cannot do it earlier as you need to do the attacks that you are being trained on, and the

fruit fuckers you first encounter as a party are very weak. Note: to counterattack (which is the only way to inflict damage as a pacifist) you must block at

the right time when the enemy's HP gauge is flashing.


Silent, But Deadly 30 points
Fight, and destroy the final Boss without using any healing items.
NOTE: you CANNOT beat the boss normally, then come back to try and kill him without healing items. Beating the boss gives you an automatic save.


Immortal 20 points
Play and win the game without allowing a character to die during combat.
save often. if you die, restart


Fight 'Em With Items 20 points
Find and use every item in the game at least once.
Use all the combat items in the game (the items that display under "Combat Items" in the inventory @ the detective agency, or the items you can use in

combat). Note that this doesn't have to be a successful use, i got the achievement for using a mime box against a clown)


Level Awesome 20 points
Kill enough enemies in the game to get the XP necessary to get all party members to Level 15.
you will get this going for clean sweep


Clean Sweep 30 points
Find and kill every possible enemy in the game.

desperation street (19 spare parts in total)
2 FFs on 1st panel of desperation (2 spare parts)
3 FFs on 1st panel of desperation in milk bottles (3 spare parts)
2 FFs on 2nd panel (2 spare parts)
2 FFs on 2nd panel (2 spare parts)
3 FFs on 3rd panel (3 spare parts)
7 FFs on 4th panel (7 spare parts)

hobo alley-prelube

desperation street
lots of hobos

hobo alley-round 2
end with 60 parts

the only hard part I had was finding all the FFs in paradise pier. They are hiding in seagulls, milk bottles, etc. The two hard ones for me to find are the toolbox thing just north of flying pricks and a seagull by a bench north of the fortune teller.

    So, any strategies for "Silent but Deadly"? I end up using a LOT of healing items, and you can't use any. That seems like it'd be pretty difficult.

    Save up maxed hit bonuses on everyone? Would probably be the easiest way to pull it off, assuming you block everything (goddamn Void Jab).

    Wow! it's about time *grin*

    Don't forget to post FAQs etc. to Gamefaqs. I think it helps raise the visibility of a game when it hits all the FAQ and 'Cheat' sites out there. Currently I don't think there is anything available at the usual places.

    I finished it last night, 11 of the 12 achievements one run. Didn't get immortal. For the final boss you need to use lots of blocks and reduce his attack power x5. Other than that use all of your Dynamite, Hot Toddy's & Clown Noses at the start. Also, try and get in a groove where you are constantly damaging him so he doesn't get the chance to attack

    Uh. You just replied to yourself.

    You have to kill them with the attack that does 1pt of damage, not the one that does 99999 or whatever.

    The perfect place for the "Nine Lives" achievement is at the beginning, before you meet Tycho and Gabe, by the way. The Player's damage is 18, and all the FF (Mrk. I) there has 19. Also a good place for "Pacifist" because in the first fight of the game, the Player's HP is restored automatically when it gets below 12. PC version by the way. I'm not sure about the other consoles, but I imagine they would be the same. The trick is to counterattack at the right time, no worries about dying or anything.

    That's right King, I've found the same basic counter attack strategy pretty much wins each time.

    Nine Lives tip:

    For some reason King's tip didn't work for me, the FF'ers had 25 health on all difficulties. So I improvised;

    In the start area Gabe will get his first special attack. With Gabe's special attack you can set how much damage he will do by pressing space an exact number of times, it will go up in increments of 1. You can stack up just enough damage to get the enemy to 1 hp and let Kemper do his/her thang.
