Optional Achievements

The Great MIDIator: In Chapter One, a pair of students are arguing along the left back wall in the Highschool reception area, behind the registration desk. Talk to them to overhear their argument

TP Trouble: Глава первая, bathrooms on the first floor left wing. Pick up toilet paper from the trash can on the right and give it to the skeleton using the second stall from the left

Виртуоз: Complete all five Chapter One recruitment microgames without missing a single note. Две вещи, на которые стоит обратить внимание: Первый, you have infinite chances to get this achievement. Even if you fail a tape or complete the chapter, you can always head back to the recruitment spot for another chance. Например, I totally screwed up the guitar one on my first go around and missed two notes. I instantly replayed it and got the perfect run I needed for the achievement. Второй, the only microgame that’s really difficult is the guitar player, as it has a fast tempo and many double notes. You can cruise through the other four.

• Гитара: Baseball field
• Saxophone: Left wing, second floor library
• Клавиатура: Крыша
• Труба: Right wing, second floor bathrooms
• Trombone: Right wing, first floor science lab

• Grater: One door right to the milk gang alley. Когда вы взаимодействуете с ним, the owner will yell at you for knocking on his expensive door. After being yelled at, knock one more time to learn the finger grating recipe.
• Rat Roast: Enter the sewers through the manhole. Solve the pipe puzzle (same controls as Pipes in chapter 2) on the rightward valve to lower the water. Затем, head to the left side and break up the puzzle on the leftward valve to raise the water again, so that you can talk to the skeleton and learn the rat recipe.

S-Rank Achievements

Each microgame tape section shares a pattern: 6 normal speed tapes, three sped-up tapes, and then the boss tape. Boss tapes throw you a bone and allow you to make three mistakes. You lose a micro game if you either make a mistake (3 для боссов) or run out of time. Если ты’ve ever played WarioWare, you know that this type of game is way harder than it looks. This difficulty comes from three sources:

• The microgames have unclear goals and controls. You need to figure out what to do and how to do it.
• You have a very limited amount of time to read the situation and respond. Например, one game in chapter two is plugging numbers into an equation, и, in the heat of the moment, это’s very easy to misread the equation and plug in a wrong answer.
• Если ты’re going for the S rank, you need to be flawless for ten micro games in a row, which takes some stamina and steady nerves

Общие советы

• The microgame selection, outside of the boss tape, is randomly pulled from the chapter’s new microgames. В связи с этим, это’s possible to get repeats and, inversely, for a specific microgame to never show up. The latter can be a life saver, if highly luck based; например, one microgame in chapter 2 that kept tripping me up, the Coffin one, miraculously didn’t show during my S-rank winning run.
• В общих чертах, each chapter has only a handful of truly difficult microgames. Из-за этого, там’s only a handful of games that you need to prepare for and know by heart. Например, in Chapter One, if you can get a handle on Spider Drums and Ghost Flash, ты готов идти.
• Once you beat a microgame for the first time, you can practice them infinitely by heading to the tape shelf in the prologue basement. Before going for the S-rank, I would recommend practicing every microgame until you can consistently win them all, with special attention to the ones you find hardest.
• You can always come back to try for the S-rank. Например, after you finish Chapter One, you can walk right back into the band room and try the microgame marathon until you get it.
• Some microgames are randomized, some are set, and some have a limited amount of configurations. Из-за этого, some games can be made easy through memorization, like how Boat has only one pattern and Pipes has only two.
• Part of the difficulty is keeping your cool through the micro game marathon. If you start slipping or feel overwhelmed, you can hit the Esc key to open the pause screen and take a breather.

A Perfect Start – Есть 10 normal tapes and one boss tape in the first compilation. They all use the arrow keys (or WASD) as a control scheme. After beating the prologue, you can come back to the basement and interact with the TV for another chance. This one is the simplest of the bunch.

• Обезвредить: Steer the cutters towards the wire that matches the color on the bomb screen. This one changes colors every time you play, так что следите
• Призрак: Avoid the ghost until time runs out. Это может быть сложно. You have a second to get a head start, so head to the edge and start running counterclockwise.
• Grave: Hold down until the shovel is buried (little click noise) and release. Повторите это три раза
• Гильотина: Hit any key when a watermelon goes through the middle of the screen. Halve all melons
• Logsplit: Mash down and up in alternating order until the log is split
• Beheading: Hit ANY keys in alternating order, until the head is cut off. I originally thought it was up and down, or left and right, but any works, удивительно?
• Акула: Eat all fish in the time limit. The hit box for eating the fish is the shark’рот, not the body. A strategy I picked up is to flip left and right, so the shark mouth hit box goes everywhere quickly.
• Скелет: Это может быть сложно. Move the bones into their respective spots. The humerus and femur look similar, so make sure you know which bone you’re moving before you make a mistake.
• Налоги: Hit down and then either left (зеленый) or right (красный). Repeat three times
• Zombie Wall: Move left and right with the arrows, and down to shoot. Keep the flytrap zombies from crossing the white line until the timer runs out. Each zombie needs multiple hits to be kept down.
• Boss Nosferatu: Sort cards into the four suites with left/right to move and down to place. One spot for each suite. You can make three mistakes, but the timer is a little tight.

Master of Bongo Arts – As with the first chapter, there are nine tapes and one boss tape. This one has a couple of real show-stopping hard ones. Did it take me like ten tries to get an S rank? Almost all of them are in time for the music, so if you have a good sense of rhythm, you can play it like Rhythm Heaven.

• Лодка: Hit left or right to steal the boats as they hit the gutter. This one always follows the same pattern LRL LLRRLLRRR L R
• Бокс: Hit the outstretched hands with the glove on their side of the screen.
• заваривать: Hit the limbs into the cauldron when they hit the bumpers. This is in time with the music
• Ghostflash: Это сложно. Hit the arrow that matches the one on the ghost when it’s close to the screen, which is after the musical sting finishes. The arrow order is randomized, and you will fail if you go too early or late.
• Karate: Hit the boards as they cross the line.
• Spider Drums: This one is harder than it looks. Если ты’ve ever played Space Channel 5, это’s like that. You need to remember both the directions and the rhythm in which they’re made; you cannot just press the right keys. You need to input two sets of drum beats. The second has a note on the offbeat, so one beat is faster than the others.
• Stoplight: Hit the key that’s shown on the sign when the light turns green. This one has two distinct patterns: медленный, середина, быстрый, and slow, медленный.
• Woodchop: Hit the splits in the wood with the axe on their corresponding side
• Xylophone: Easier than Spider Drums, but same basic principle. Remember both side and rhythm, as just mashing will fail you. Two sets of notes: the first is three and the second is five.
• Bossconcert: Easier than most tapes in this collection, to be frank. Hit the notes as you would with the recruitment minigame.

Ace Detective – This chapter has nine tapes and one boss tape. The theme of this chapter is puzzles, so this may or may not be hard depending on how you think. They all use a mouse, and a physical mouse you can move around is recommended. You can head back to the captain’s skull in the control deck for another try.

• Гроб: Harder than it looks. Там’s a short, середина, long legged, and very long legged mummy to sort, each with a proper coffin. The hardest one is the long legged one, как это’s not immediately clear which coffin it goes into.
• Различия: Найдите и нажмите кнопку 2 или 3 differences between the two pictures. The differences can be the clock face, the plates on the table, and any one of four pictures on the wall. One playthrough might be three pictures not matching, while another could be two pictures and the clock face.
• Equation: This one is really easy to screw yourself over on. Using two numbers, из 0 через 9, решить уравнение. Most equations have multiple correct answers; например, _ + _ = 13 can be solved as 9/4, 6/7, и 5/8 (or flipped, as addition is commutative). Where things get tricky is the subtraction problems. Иногда, the correct answer is NEGATIVE, so make sure you’ve read the equation right before putting in your answer. Также, whenever you put a number down, it is locked in until the end of the minigame, so if you make a mistake with your first number, ты’ve already lost.
• Ghost counting: Нажмите кнопку + button every time a new ghost flies in from the edge of the screen. The winning amount varies. я’я видел 15,16, и 17 be the right answer.
• Сердце: Fiddle with the two sliders to make the blue EKG match the purple EKG template. A controls strength, so moving it up and down adjusts the strength accordingly. F controls the horizontal position. Например, if the purple EKG is stronger and to the left of the blue one, move A up and F down.
• Память: Match four sets of two photos. Bookshelves, hooded statues, hand-holding rifle, and skeleton on the ground.
• Трубы: Play pipe dreams, and connect the lower-left faucet with the upper right heart. This one has multiple possible layouts, but the correct answer always has to involve the upper-middle pipe, as it is the only one that can connect to the heart. я’ve only seen two pipe layouts.
• Головоломка: Assemble the tangram by dragging the smaller shapes into place. As always with this sort of puzzle, use the big pieces first, as they have very few possible locations. This game has multiple configurations
• Simon Says: Repeat the five skull patterns by clicking each skull. The pattern is only five beats long, так что это’s easy to remember.
• Skeleton Boss: This one is actually quite hard. Drag the five bones into place without touching the maze walls. You can make three mistakes without failing the minigame. The pelvis and skull are easy to move, but the other three are harder. The rib cage is giant and bulky. The two long bones needed to be rotated. The timer is very generous on this one, so take your time with the harder bones. Также, this one is not randomized, you have to navigate the same maze every time.

Мастер Шеф – This set has 17 total micro games, и, in the last shift, you go through 14 microgames in a row. You can always head to the restaurant kitchen for one more try. There is not a boss microgame or a speed up for this set. The soup-making boss tape is a story part.

• Яйцо: This one took me like six tries to even figure out what it wanted me to do: Use up to throw the egg into the air, and left/right to tilt the pan. The goal is to crack the egg by throwing three times, but you instantly lose if it falls offscreen. When you throw the egg up, it takes off with a startling amount of momentum, so you must tilt the pan to steer it back to the center. Throw to the left, tilt to the right. If you have two cracks down, toss it for an instant win.
• Fingerchop: When a finger is on the middle of the board, press and hold down to cut it off. Continue holding down and left to move the finger off the board. Repeat with all five fingers.
• Hotdog: Your goal for this one is to cut all the way to the right. Изначально, hold right until the scissors get stuck. Затем, hold left until it goes all the way back before holding right to cut even further. Repeat until the cut is long enough to season the hotdog. This takes at least three cuts.
• Ice Cube: Это сложно. Use down to drop the ice cube into the moving glass. There are two tricks. Один, the ice cube keeps the momentum of the moving hand, so if you let go of it while moving right, оно выиграло’t fall straight down; скорее, it will curve right. Второй, the ice cube falls slowly, so you need to lead the ice cube drop. My strategy was to drop the ice cube when the glass hits the edge of the screen, as it stops for a few milliseconds, giving you a head start.
• Living Food: Move your fork up and down with the arrows, and hit right to shoot a projectile. Survive until time runs out. To be very clear, the goal is to not be hit, и, not as I assumed, to stop the sand from crossing the left edge of the screen. There are two sandwich types: the triangles, which move quickly and can be beaten with one hit, and the big subs, which fire projectiles and can take three hits. If you collide with a sandwich or a bullet, ты проигрываешь.
• Микроволновая печь: use the right key to advance the timer and the left to decrease it. Match the time on the directions. Like a real timer, the clock advances faster as you hold it; press it and it moves a second, hold and it starts moving by the fives. Move-in big numbers until you’re a tiny bit away from the goal, and then stop to readjust.
• Eye Skewer: skewer three eyeballs by pressing down when you move the skewer over them. Легкий, but the skewer hitbox is a little narrow.
• Чеснок: defend the blood goblet from Nosferatu by moving the garlic into him until time runs out. Nosferatu will attack three or four times, and he always pauses when he comes from a new direction. This one is strangely hard, as the Nosferatu-repelled-by-garlic hitbox and the Nosferatu-touching-the-goblet-and-making-you-lose hitbox are not the same size; the losing hitbox is way bigger.
• Meat grinder: grind the body down by hitting the keys in a clockwise fashion (Вверх, верно, вниз, левый, повторить). Counterclockwise will not work.
• Осьминог: cut the tentacles by moving the knife over them (влево или вправо) and hitting up or down.
• Крыса: Using up and down, rotate the rat so that the three pustules face the fire (the lower backside) and cook. You can hear them crackle and see them turn red when they face the fire, with a satisfying pop when they cook completely.
• Grater: Alternate between holding up and down to grate down the finger. Repeat until the pasta is fully seasoned.
• Temple Salt: Cut four fish by pressing the down key. Some fish move faster than others, so keep your reflexes sharp.
• Temple Bitter: Oh my god, this one is a pain. Keep the fan over the Traveller as they wander to the flower basket. The failure point is if too much of their body is uncovered at once. You need to rapidly respond to any change in motion. You cannot stay still.
• Temple Sweet: This one is also rather hard. Collect five persimmons (?) in a bowl. The problem is that the bowl can only comfortably fit three of them, so the last two are going to have to be stacked on top, where they roll around with any movement. As long as they don’t go offscreen before the timer runs out, ты’все хорошо
• Temple Sour: Navigate the raven to the fruit without hitting the three yokai bobbing back and forth. Whenever you’re not hitting the up button, the raven is falling. When the yokai dart away from the center, make a run for it.
• Temple Umami: Steer your sword into the four mushrooms growing on the trees.
