HR: Human Remains achievements
There are thirteen achievements. Ninja permits at most two webs and its trigger was fixed in 1.1. Connected! uses the portable archive phone; Collector needs six figurines, including the box after freeing Chihu.
HR: Human Remains has 13 Steam achievements. Plan the location-based tasks as you pass through their areas: the Archives phone, the city activities and six figurines are more useful checkpoints than an old global completion percentage. This page contains achievement and location spoilers.
The achievement checklist
| Achievement | Task and route check |
|---|---|
| Ninja | Cross Silk's Lair touching at most two webs; the trigger was fixed in 1.1 |
| I Hate This Station | Throw the radio into the abyss; the community route places the radio demon before the bouncing-plant archive section |
| Real Gaming | Finish Minesweeper on the computer; use its adjacent-cell counts to avoid bombs |
| New Best Friend | Buy a plushie |
| Rodeo | Jump onto the Archivator's back |
| Second cosmic velocity | A player reports repeatedly rolling the prologue chair after signing the agreement and healing, until its motion/sound accelerates |
| Local Helper | Complete the city's side quests |
| In Good Hands | Steal the bartender's cat; this is a different objective from returning it for the city side quest |
| Shadow | Cross the Archives without alerting the Archivator |
| Liberation | Free Chihu; the community route describes returning to the server-room conversations |
| True Guardian | Complete the ritual without losing a building |
| Connected! | Make a phone call using the portable archive handset |
| Collector | Collect the six figurines; use the dedicated location checklist |
Steam supplies all thirteen names and objectives, including the five hidden achievements revealed through its “view all hidden achievements” option. The dated community route adds physical landmarks and task advice. For the cat, distinguish stealing it from returning it; the objective alone does not prescribe when to leave the area.
Opening tasks: Ninja, chair and computer
For Ninja, the published requirement is a maximum of two webs, not one. Patch 1.1 corrects a trigger problem. Aim to avoid additional contacts and use a current build before blaming the route.
For the chair, the reported success was with a prologue chair after the agreement and healing, repeatedly accelerating it. A report of success on that chair is a more specific place to try than clicking every chair in the city.
For Real Gaming, finish Minesweeper rather than merely open it. A revealed number counts the adjacent mines; it does not describe a 9×9 area as the old community post suggests.
Archives: choose the task you are attempting
Shadow is the clean stealth crossing. Rodeo involves deliberately getting onto the Archivator, so approach them as separate goals instead of assuming an aggressive attempt preserves the stealth requirement.
For Connected!, the developer identifies the portable phone on a balcony in archive section H. Push a cart into place, use the third-floor opening and collect the handset for use in the shelter. Old secret numbers were cancelled according to the developer's October 15 reply. See the phone route if numbers fail or the phones you find cannot make the required call.
City activities and the cat
The community route describes four city activities for Local Helper: the doctor's experiment, the bartender's cat, the arcade challenge and a plushie purchase. Speak to the relevant NPC before attempting the associated challenge, then return to finish the conversation or handover.
Buying a plushie also serves New Best Friend. Returning a cat and keeping it for In Good Hands are different goals; choose the one you are pursuing before handing it over. The construction rooftop route covers reaching the cat without inventing a unique mandatory upgrade.
Ritual, Liberation and Collector
During the ritual, protect the buildings as well as yourself. The community route recommends promptly dealing with attackers and repairing damaged buildings; True Guardian requires that no building is lost.
For Chihu, revisit the server-room conversations as the story advances. After freeing Chihu, inspect the box that falls open. The developer directly identifies the figurine inside as the last pickup. Keep the Liberation interaction separate from actually collecting that object.
The six-figurine checklist gives the other five physical locations. Check your own missed stops before assuming the final server-room box is always the missing one.
