SULFUR has 131 achievements. 58 of them are “Pity for the …” sacrifices of each gun to Telia, the rarest are the Endless stage clears and the Hardcore clear, and a handful need a specific setup that the objective text does not explain. Every objective with its unlock rate is in the achievement list.
Ones that need a setup
| Achievement | Objective | How |
|---|---|---|
| Actually not that bad (22.7%) | Finish an area with the Dirk and Wakizashi as your only weapons | Run the Hedge Maze with only the starting kit and 2–3 Power Bars; it counts as a full area and has no enemies you need to kill. Do not pick up any gun on the way |
| Amulet-Free (28.9%) | Beat an area without a charged Amulet | Use the Amulet to go home first, then clear an area without touching its shrine. The Caves end with a lift home, so they are the easiest choice |
| Goblin Whisperer (3.6%) | Charm a goblin | Throw a Jar of Love (Heart + Paper) at an ordinary goblin, or shoot one with a Scroll of Charm (Light + Nature) on a weak gun that will not kill it first |
| Not breathtaking (9.1%) | Hold your breath for 3 minutes | Wear an Oxygen Tank or Extra Lungs and stay underwater in the Sewers. 1.0.1 stopped it unlocking in the main menu |
| Hoarder (18.8%) | Fill your inventory completely | Fill the backpack grid, every wearable slot and all four passive slots |
| AAAAHH! (5.7%) | Die from falling | Each fall into a chasm costs a large share of your health; fall again until one kills you |
| Not Good Enough to Throw Grenades (8.2%) | Kill yourself with a grenade | Lose some health first so your own blast finishes you |
| Finnish Pride (36.6%) | Set 6 enemies on fire with one Molotov | Wait for a pack to bunch up in a corridor |
| Explosive Personality (28.5%) | Kill 5 enemies with one grenade | Goblin groups in the Caves die to one Stick Grenade |
| Law Abiding Citizen (1.6%) | Keep a Driver’s License in your inventory while driving | Carry a Driver’s License through the car drive after the Witch |
| Sweet Tooth (7.3%) | Bake a mudcake | Chocolate Mudcake: Flour, Egg, Butter and a Chocolate Bar, or Flour, Egg, Butter, Cacao and Sugar |
| Smart man (25.4%) | Charge the Amulet by paying the Gravedigger | 1,000 SULF at the Church grave |
| Eagle Eye (21.5%) | Locate Jaques De Fector | He hides in the Forest |
Pity tiers
“Have some pity” to “Have an infinite amout of pity” need 1,000, 5,000, 10,000, 30,000 and 66,666 SULF reimbursed from the Church Collection Box. The box pays 10% of the value you lose on death, and pity accumulates across deaths until you open it, so leave it shut until the total passes the next tier. The top tier needs the value of about 666,660 SULF lost, which is easier on Hard, where you lose everything you carry. See death and difficulty.
Story and difficulty
The area achievements unlock as you clear each area; Defeat Terrorbaum now pops on the kill (fixed in 1.0). Five difficulty clears exist: Cakewalk (Very Easy), Easy Peasy, Achievement (Medium), Legit (Hard) and Death Defying (Hardcore, 0.7%). A clear on a harder setting also awards every easier one except Hardcore, and the game grants them retroactively from the save-selection screen, including for a Hardcore save that died after 100% completion.
Long grinds
- Telia sacrifices (58). Each gun must reach rank 5 and be given to Telia; see weapon ranks. Library Cards and Lock of the Magus shorten each one.
- Kill counts: 100, 500, 1,000, 3,000 and 6,666 kills (MMMMMMDCLXVI, 5.5%).
- Millionaire (3.8%): save up 1,000,000 SULF in total.
- Crypts: 1, 5 and 10 Trials of the Spirit. See Desert crypts.
- Endless: stage 1, 3, 5, 10 and 20, and 50 banishes. Stage 20 (Cult Leader, 0.4%) takes 8 to 10 hours. See Endless mode.
- Church: 5 and 10 upgrades, 1, 5 and 10 quests.
Turning on cheats disables achievements on that save.
