If you play Fires At Midnight and want to get all achievements, this guide will explain how to get every achievement, let’s check it out.
How to use this guide
In order to obtain all the achievements, 4 playthroughs are needed.
While there are a lot of inconsequential choices, the playthroughs suggested in this guide aim to cover the possible paths and choices so you can experience the game from all angles.
Please check the “Achievements summary” section. Some of the achievements are mutually exclusive, therefore you will need several playthrougs.
Part 1: PC
- you have 10.00 that you can spend either on buying one of the two possible flowers or on paying the LRC subscription. Each of these grants an achievement, and since these are mutual-exclusive, you will need 3 playthroughs to obtain all three.
- In the bar scene (Winarm – top track), what you pick in regards to the smoking question will lead you to 2 different end screens for one of the endings (and thus two different achievements)
Part 2: Yun’s photos
- the substories of this chapter lead you to 5 different pictures that you can add to the “Negative photobook”, of which you are allowed to pick only 3 per playthrough.
You will be able to see Chitra’s version of these three stories in Part 3 and each of them opens a new route with corresponding achievements.
For completion, you’ll need to pick the photo with Chitra in bed (“I never did understand what the flowers meant”) on three different playthroughs and pick different paths during the scene where she creates her art. For more info, please check “Yun / Chitra’s stories” section.
Part 3: Chitra’s version
- the last choice that you’ll make in the game (follow Anger / Love / Fear) will lead you to 3 different endings
