I see the castle of no escape games have had similar updates, I only have the first one so chalked off that update within five minutes. Is there an easy way to see which games have received a recent update on true achievements?


I just saw them on 'recent achievement lists', there's that, Aboriginus and Pixel Gladiator, all of which had 1000G added to them for some reason. All 5 minute completions, I didn't want to do them all in case of decay but might have to!

Yeah, I imagine the decay will be quick and devastating with those but doubt we’d make it through this week without doing some of them. Just 90 more achievements to earn the week’s team bonus :lol:

Yeah I've just done the Aboriginus update and I'll throw a bit more in before cutoff. Should be fine.

At least most of the decay on those title updates has already happened!

I'm scanned in. We're not gonna be miles over the line but I think there are so many teams around us that they can't all overtake us in the last 15 mins.

Nice work dude, skin of our teeth etc but two bonuses now in the bag. 20 simulation achievements each for next week’s team bonus. Doable?

Sorry lads I was next to useless last week and I don't think I'll be much better this week. Are there any easy-ish, cheap-ish simulator games to smash achievements out in?

If you have Game Pass and haven't done Surviving Mars yet, that's your answer. I'll probably just do The Sims 4.

It's a little bit naughty, and you'll feel immediate regret. But it's a five minute completion. :lol:

Oh yeah, I did that, totally agree with the regret :lol: although the developer probably sold much more dlc on the back of that. Good shout on the sims, I’ve been meaning to use that exploit. My little boy is dangerously addicted to that game. Must remember to do it when he’s at school :lol:

This was filth, by the way. Worse than Avatar level cheesing. But it's done, and I've put my bonus contribution in. :dread:

Seeing as you’ve abandoned any shred of decency, Wandersong is apparently a one-hour 1,000, using a level select cheat. On Game Pass until the end of the month.

No, I don't feel the need to go through that again. If it weren't for the TA bonus challenge I'd have steered well clear. :lol:

TA makes us do terrible things. When I took part in the contest I had to unplug the Kinect, because it felt like my Xbox would be judging me if it could see me.

I think we've met the team bonus requirement now, my brother and I have got 40 or so Sims 4 achievements and now we move onto the weekly ritual of how are we going to survive this week :lol:
