There are achievements for completing all episodes by just watching every in-game cut scene. Most of the achievements have to be gained under certain episodes. If you miss any, you have to replay the episode from the nearest checkpoint (chapter). There are also points to get by combining different items with each other. But don't worry, if you follow my guide carefully you wont miss anyone.

For the "Handyman Carnby " achievement I would suggest doing this on Level 2 if you want to get rid of it fast. Scroll down to ”Handyman Carnby ” for more info.

The Blind Man - 10 points

Finish the wake up sequence without blinking.

 

In the beginning of the game you will be laying on a bed and eventually a button guide will tell you to push down the right thumb stick. The trick here is to ignore this. DONT PUSH the right thumb stick during the whole sequence, until you reach a mirror and a small cut scene will start.

 

Fire Bullets - 5 points

Make a fire bullet by pouring flammable liquid on it.

 

When you get a bottle with flammable liquid in Episode 2 combine it with your gun to create fire bullets

 

The Sharpshooter - 20 points

Finish off a Humanz by shooting fire bullets at it's fissure.

 

I got this in Episode 2 shortly after you exit the crashed elevator. However, just use fire bullets and then shoot a Humanz on those lines on his body, That is it's fissure. (If you happen to fail this don't worry. You will get plenty of opportunities to get this one while you running around central park)

 

Car Thievery - 10 points

Unlock a car door after breaking the window.

 

Just shoot a car window if the door is locked and then open the door. You will get this achievement in Episode 2 where you have to escape and get into a car in the basement. You cant miss this achievement as you have to get a car to continue the episode.

 

Never Leave a Key Here - 10 points

Find a car key in the sun visor.

 

Right after you have to break-in to the car in Episode 2, you can either look under the sun visor where there may be a key hidden. PING! You can also hot wire the car if you wish, which will give you an achievement as well. (Look below at ”Wired” for more info about this achievement) 

 

Wired - 10 points

Hotwire a car.

 

At the end of Episode 2 you'll need to hotwire a car. Follow the instructions on screen and just connect the right cables. Piece of cake. Note: This can change, as I just had to slam into the car and got the key under the sun visor.

SPOILER! (In the beginning of episode 7 after you have climbed up the rope from the crashed helicopter, there is a police car you can hotwire)

 

Basic Combination  - 5 points

Tape up a bottle.

 

Very easy. As soon as you get a bottle and you got some tape, just add them together and you'll get this one.

 

The Sticky Bomb - 5 points

Take a bottle filled with flammable content or a spray and combine it with an adhesive.

 

You'll get the bug spray in in Episode 2 and in Chapter 1 you'll get tape. Just combine these two to get your sticky bomb.

 

The Glowstick Bomb - 5 points

Combine a taped bottle filled with flammable content or a spray with a glowstick.

 

Follow the what the description says. You will find all this stuff in the first three episodes. 

Example ( tape + plastic bottle + glowstick )

 

Fissure - 20 points

Burn a fissure.

 

(Can be obtained in Episode 3 )

A fissure is a crack in the ground, wall etc. that will follow you at certain events and will try to take you into the ground. Just set it on fire by shooting it with fire bullets. Or throw and shoot a flammable bottle at it. You will find one opportunity in Episode 3, on the second floor. After you have to turn the elevator power back on, use the elevator and right after you exit it will appear.(The same building were you find the first evil root. It is marked with a circle on the map. )

 

The 10 Mile Race - 20 points

Drive at least 10 miles with a vehicle.

 

What can I say? Just drive around 10 miles and you'll get this achievement quite fast, when you go into Central Park. I got it at the end of Episode 2 where you need to race to Central Park.

 

Cockpit Addict - 20 points

Drive all the way down 59th street in Cockpit view.

 

Start the level "up on the 59th Street" part ( Episode 2 ) and just switch to first person by pressing Y. Now you just have to drive until the end of the level and the achievement will unlock. Don't worry if you die, it will still work if you switch back the camera angle before you start driving again.

 

Unlimited Offer - 10 points

Call all contacts in your address book.

 

At the beginning of Episode 3 you'll get a PDA that has a call function. Just try to call them all and you will get this one

 

Countdown to Death - 10 points

Stop your wound from bleeding.

 

You will get this one in the beginning of Episode 3, where you have to find a public restroom. You cant miss this achievement, because it belongs to the objective.

 

The Molotov Cocktail  - 5 points

Insert a wick into a bottle with flammable content.

 

If you got some kind of cloth (bandage, handkerchief) and a bottle with flammable content, combine them and you got your Molotov Cocktail.

 

Demolition Expert - 20 points

Build the most destructive weapon.

 

Combine any kind of bottle with flammable liquid. Tape it up and put an ammo box on it.

Example ( tape + plastic bottle + ammo box)

 

The Air Bomb  - 5 points

Throw a bottle filled with flammable liquid and shoot it mid-air.

 

Equip a bottle of flammable liquid with your gun, then when you throw the bottle, just shoot it. You will get this one in Episode 3 as you have to get through a wall, that's blocking your way out.

 

Vampirz - 20 points

Burn one of the Vampirz.

 

You can get this one in Episode 3, right after you have get through the wall in the public restroom, you have to climb down a rope. While you are climbing there will come vampirz above you. Just get rid of them as they wont count as a kill. 

When you have reach the ground there will be vampirz eating on a body. Just left of vampirz there will be a pipe leaking out some flammable air (you can tell by the haze). Create fire bullets and shoot the gas leak, and you have just created a mounted flame-thrower. The pipe will spit out fire instead of gas and burn the vampirz.

(If it does not work the first time, just load the game and you will be starting right before you climb down the rope )

 

The Smart Fighter  - 5 points

Kill any Humanz with the 'spray + lighter' combination.

 

As soon as you get the lighter, equip it with a spray and just flame a Humanz. (You'll also kill it because they can only be killed by fire.)

 

Cocoon  - 20 points

Burn a cocoon.

 

You'll find your first cocoon in Episode 3. It is a large thing stuck to the ceiling. Right after you have moved through a car that is hanging off a cliff, you will end up in an entrance to the sewers. Don't jump down in the water just yet. (Below is an achievement too!) Look above you. Yes, that's a cocoon! Burn it down. PING!

 

Fisherman's Foe - 10 points

Shoot a goldfish.

 

Episode 3, after the sequence you get in the car hanging on a "cable moment", you'll see your first cocoon. Beneath the cocoon there is some water. You'll see a goldfish swimming there. Just shoot it. That's why I told you not to jump down! You will get a much better aim from here.

 

Goal! - 20 points

Kick 10 Ratz.

 

Switch to first person mode, press RT when the Ratz are on the ground. Make sure you don't have an item or weapon equipped. You'll kick a Ratz away, but you won't kill it. Do this 10 times. This is best done in Episode 3 inside the sewer.

 

Toasted Eggs - 20 points

Burn a Ratz nest.

 

In Episode 3 while inside the sewers, you'll find some weird thing that spits out Ratz. Just set in on fire and you'll  get this one. You cant miss this one as the Ratz keep respawning until you destroy it, and you also have to destroy it to get through the level.

 

Nuke  - 25 points

Kill 3 Humanz at once.

 

Just kill 3 Humanz at the same time. In Episode 3, right after you leave the sewer, you'll find a hot dog cart that you can push into 3 enemies. Do this and as soon as its closes, let it explode.

 

Useless! - 10 points

Combine an empty taped bottle with a wick and an emergency flare.

 

What you need: An empty bottle (you can pour the fuel out of a bottle by pressing A). Tape, a piece of bandage or a handkerchief and a flare. Combine every item and viola...you just made a useless combination. You will find a flare in Episode 3. Once near the hot dog cart and the second one in the basement were you find the first evil root.

 

Free Gasoline - 10 points

Pierce a car gas tank and fill a bottle with the fuel.

 

If you've got a screwdriver / knife and an empty bottle, you can use your screwdriver / knife on a car and then fill the bottle with fuel. I found an knife in a car glove compartment. There is a (green) car near the water, right next to some Ratz This is pretty early in the chapter, so just follow the road past the hot dog cart and you will eventually find a car parked next to a tree. You will also get a screwdriver in Episode 3 near the end. It's on the floor.

 

Burning Root - 10 points

Burn a root of evil.

 

This is an time consuming achievement, as it will follow you until Episode 6, just make sure to wipe the whole map free from those circles and you will get this one. Most of the roots are outside around Central Park. You will get plenty of time to find an kill them all in Episode 6, as you need some of there powers to continue the game


At the beginning of Episode 3 you'll find a PDA that gives you access to a map. On the map you'll find grey circles as if they jam that piece of the map. When you get near that mark, you will see this happen on your radar. Just search around the area and as soon as the screen turns weird, you're close by to a Root of Evil. 

These are standing 'trees' that can only be killed by fire, and my advice is to throw a flammable bottle on it, and then shoot it while in mid-air. You can also pour liquid on it and then set it on fire with your lighter Destroying these things will get you paranormal powers, like seeing where the weak points of the enemies are.

 

Purification by Fire  - 10 points

Destroy the Vampirz' nest.

 

Destroy the nest of the Vampirz that attacks you in Episode 4. You can't miss it, it is story related. Just throw bottles at it and shot it in mid air. You will find enough bottles behind you near the garbage cans.

 

Stuntman - 10 points

Jump across the gap using the tow truck.

 

At the end of Chapter 4, you will need to prepare the tow truck by putting down the ramp and raising the bed. Ignore Sarah and fly up the ramp. You will get this one while you are over to the other side

 

Bloody Mary - 10 points

Bandage 5 deep bleeding wounds.

 

After taking enough damage, there might pop up a hospital screen on the bottom left with a beeping red line, and a countdown below it. When the countdown reaches 0 you die. The only way to fix this is by using a bandage. Use it 5 times and you get this one. There is a trick to get this much faster. 

At the start of Episode 5 (kitchen), just pick up some bottles in the fridge then throw and shoot it fairly close to yourself. Not too close though or you will die. If you make it right, the timer will pop up.

(You will find bandage in the first aid box on the wall to the right, next to the fire ) After you have been plastered, SAVE AND LOAD THE GAME and repeat this method over and over until the achievement unlocks.

 

Revive - 10 points

Revive Sarah.

 

In the Beginning of Episode 5, when Sarah is injured, follow the on screen instructions to save her (this one is story related, so you can't miss it ).

    Example ( Tape + plastic bottle filled with flammable liquid + bandage / handkerchief)

     

    The remaining achievements are for completing the game and by choosing one of two endings. God or Evil what do you prefer?
