Achievement Guide & Roadmap
The Guide is 100% completed! I can still add stuff if you'd like to, let me know what you think, if you love or if you don't and why. Your comments can only make the guide better ![]() ![]() Overview Estimated achievement difficulty: 3/10 Offline: 50 (1000 Online: 0 Approximate time: 15+ hours Minimum number of playthroughs:2 Missable achievements: No but check out the Roadmap Does difficulty affect achievements: Yes (Don difficulty) Glitched achievements: No, as far as I know. Extra equipement?: No Introduction: Jackie Estacado, Godfather of an old mafia family, is empowered with the devastating force of the Darkness. It has been two years since Jackie used this power to kill his girlfriend's murderers. Once buried deep in his soul, the Darkness is reawakened, more powerful than ever after a brutal assassination attempt against him. Step 1: Easy/Normal playthrough + collectibles + misc achievements . First, enjoy the game on an easy difficulty. You will unlock talents and upgrades that will make your second (Don) playthrough easier. Also try to find the collectibles and complete the misc achievements. These will make your Don playthrough easier as you won't have to worry about them. I'll list them in order of appearance. · One Man Army · Romantic · Decisions, Decisions · The Bird is the Word · That's Why I'm the Boss · Carnie Kid · Mmmm Essence!/Relic Hunter (If you bought the Collector's Edition, there's a code inside that will show you where the relics are hidden.) If you've missed something, and you're going for the 1000 Step 2: Don playthrough/New Game+. IMPORTANT NOTE: When you start your second playthrough, be sure to select the "New Game+" and NOT the "New Game". It's possible that you'll lose all your talents if you choose to start a "New Game". It's time for your second playthrough on the "Don" difficulty. This is the hardest achievement, but it isn't all that hard. If you've collected all the relics (collectibles) and unlocked all the misc achievements, you don't have to worry about anything but blasting through. Please refer to the "Don of Darkness achievement" for useful tips. Step 3: Vendettas Campaign/Hit Lists Now that you've covered the single player campaign, it's time for something a little different: in the Vendetta's Campaign and the Hit List missions you'll play as four different characters with different abilities, which adds some spice to the game. There are eight chapters of Vendetta's campaign and 18 short Hit List missions but you only need to complete six of them. There are no missable achievements associated to these two game modes. Conclusion: This game is very exciting and the cartoon style graphics are awesome. The executions are epic and the new Estacado's Talents makes the game even better. I feel that it is a little too short, but aside from that you won't regret playing it and the full gamerscore is fun and easy. Enjoy!

Free the Mind - 25 ![]() Finish the game on any difficulty Complete the game on any of the four difficulties:
Don of Darkness - 100 ![]() Finish the game on Don difficulty Like all shooter games, completing the campaign on the hardest difficulty isn't actually very hard at all, it only requires you to take your time and to think of the best strategy. The awesomeness of this game is that it allows you to play the way you like; there are many different ways to kill your enemies. As I mentioned in the Roadmap, you should keep this achievement for your New Game+. You'll be able to start with all your talents and upgrades which will help you tremendously to blast through the game again. Here's a list of useful tips that you should keep in mind if you don't want to die over and over again:
At Home in the Dark - 50 ![]() Finish all chapters in New Game+ on any difficulty When you finish the game, you'll be able to start a new game on any difficulty with all your purchased talents or choose to replay any chapter. For this achievement complete the game again on any difficulty, but I would suggest playing on the "Don" difficulty if you haven't already done so. Important Note: At the end, you must choose to leave the Asylum. If you don't, you won't be able to complete the last chapter... One Man Army - 10 ![]() Kill 25 enemies while being dragged from the restaurant, without dying or restarting checkpoint *Missable* This should be the very first achievement you'll unlock, as it's the very first part of the game. You'll follow your friend Vinnie into an Italian restaurant where you'll start speaking with two ladies. The Mob will then blast in and damage your leg. Vinnie will try to drag you somewhere safe and you'll have to cover him by shooting the enemies. For the achievement, you'll want to kill 25 of them without dying or restarting to the last checkpoint. There are more than 25 enemies but you won't be able to kill them all. What I suggest is that you kill as many as possible while you have the one handed pistol. When you'll have dual pistols, you won't be as accurate and you'll miss plenty of targets. When you play on easy, it takes only one bullet to kill an enemy. If you fail, simply restart the level in the pause menu. As you have infinite ammo don't waste your time aiming. I'll describe checkpoints for you to see if you're on the right way:
The Bird is the Word - 5 ![]() Avoid being run over in the parking garage *Missable* While in the parking garage, the mission after you've survived the interrogation, a car will try to run over you in a slow-mo sequence. You can't avoid/dodge it, you must shoot at it. You can also use your Gun Channeling Talent to make things easier. Carnie Kid - 20 ![]() Earn a score of over 1000 in each of the carnival games *Missable* As you play the game, you'll eventually be in an abandoned amusement park. In this area, you'll have two flashback of you and Jenny playing carnival games. You have to earn a score of over 1000 in both gun games. It's not really hard but if you miss it, simply restart to the last checkpoint. Remember that you can skip the repetitive cutsceens by pressing . Impish Delight - 10 ![]() Kill 15 enemies while playing as the Darkling Playing as the Darkling isn't a Talent that you must buy. You'll play as him twice throughout the story. The very first time you won't be able to kill more than 3 enemies but the second time, you'll have the chance to kill plenty of them, perhaps more than 15. To kill someone, you must sneak behind him and press to execute him. While playing as the Darkling, you'll see unattainable enemies in the light. If you see that they aren't moving at all, don't try to kill them or you'll die.

Then, press to grab him and press , , or to perform any of the different executions. You must repeat that process 50 times. You shouldn't miss it. The Swarm King - 10 ![]() Kill 50 enemies who are swarmed while playing as Jackie To get this achievement, you'll first have to buy the Swarm Talent which will cost 1000 Essence. From now on, while in a fight press to swarm the enemies and kill them however you want. Repeat this process 50 times. The Old Gibber - 10 ![]() Kill 100 enemies with Gun Channeling while playing as Jackie You'll first have to buy the Gun Channeling talent which will cost 1000 Essence. From now on while in a fight, press to activate the talent which will give you infinite ammo for a few seconds. It will also boost your gun's damage. Kill 100 enemies while the talent is activated to unlock the achievement. Suck It Up - 10 ![]() Kill 50 enemies with Black Hole while playing as Jackie To unlock the Black Hole Talent, you must first buy the following upgrades:
), throw it ( ) near your enemies to kill them. Repeat with 50 enemies.Note: I would recommend buying the Black Hole upgrade for this, but it's not absolutely necessary. Here's a Black Hole example: ![]() Cut and Run - 10 ![]() Kill 50 enemies with the Demon Arm Slash attack To kill an enemy with the Demon Arm Slash, you must press and slash in any direction with . It might take more that one slash to kill an enemy though. Repeat the process 50 times to unlock the achievement. Ready for the Big Leagues - 10 ![]() Kill 50 enemies with thrown objects Throughout the game, you'll find different objects that can be thrown at the enemies. You must grab deadly objects (car doors, pool sticks, metal pieces, explosives, fans, any sharp or impaling objects, etc.) by pressing and pressing it again to throw it. Repeat the process 50 times to unlock the achievement. Dark Akimbo - 10 ![]() Kill 100 enemies while dual wielding 2 different guns while playing as Jackie You must press to use your dual weapons, but for this achievement you must have two different weapons. Grab a pistol and a UZI for example and kill 100 enemies with them. The dual weapons aren't accurate but there will be plenty of close range areas where you'll be able to kill enemies. That's Why I'm the Boss - 15 ![]() Impress Dolfo in two different ways Load up the "On The Hunt" chapter and go see Dolfo on the outside balcony. Speak with him and press to choose between two options, shooting bottles or shooting pigeons. For the achievement you must shoot all the bottles within 10 seconds and shoot at least 20 out of the 24 pigeons in the allotted time.You can adjust the aiming sensibility to make it easier. Karma's a Bitch - 10 ![]() Kill a shielded enemy with his own shield When you must rescue Aunt Sarah you'll see the first shielded guy. Kill everyone around him, destroy the shield armor with your slash attack, steal his shield by pressing and press it again to throw it at him. If you don't get the achievement at that moment, there will be plenty of places where you'll find shielded enemies.

2 Guys 1 Pole - 25 ![]() Kill 2 enemies with one javelin After you've heard about Swifty (when you took the elevator with Vinnie, in your house, after the very first mission) you'll be in an alley and you'll open a door with your demon arm. As soon as the door opens, grab the javelin (pool stick( )) on the container to your right and throw it ( ) at the enemies as soon as they're aligned. Quote:
Versatile Killer - 20 ![]() Kill enemies in 5 different ways within 30 seconds This achievement may sound difficult but it's not. First, put the difficulty on easy, enter the area with all the enemies and shoot all the lights. Then follow these steps:
Skeet Shoot - 10 ![]() Throw an enemy into the air and kill him with gunfire before he lands Grab an enemy with , throw him above your head by pressing again and shoot him as soon as possible. I would recommend using an assault rifle for this. Jackie's Got Talent - 5 ![]() Purchase a Talent in the single player campaign Please refer to the "Talent Show" achievement for more information. This Kid's Got Potential - 10 ![]() Max out 1 of Jackie's Talent Trees Please refer to the "Talent Show" achievement for more information. Truly Talented - 25 ![]() Max out 3 of Jackie's Talent Trees Please refer to the "Talent Show" achievement for more information. Talent Show - 50 ![]() Max out all of Jackie's Talent Trees There's a total of 28 Talents (4 trees) that you'll need to unlock. You buy them with Essence which come from the kills you make, the hearts you eat, the relics you find and the lights you destroy. These talents can be purchased from Talent Shrines that you'll find throughout the game. You may not be able to buy all of the talents in your first playthrough, but you don't have to worry about it as you'll restart the game with your all purchased Talents. You won't have to buy the same ones again. 36,800 Essence is required to buy every upgrade. Here's a Talent Shrine example: ![]()

Mmmm Essence! - 10 ![]() Pick up 5 Relics in the single player campaign Please refer the the "Relic Hunter" achievement for more information. Relic Hunter - 50 ![]() Find all 29 Relics in the single player campaign There are 29 relics hidden throughout the game. Most of them aren't "hidden", but you'll have to explore a little to find some of them. If you bought the Collector's Edition of the game, there's a code inside which allows you to see the Relics through walls (you won't need any guide if you have this). Otherwise, Gor1lla made a great written guide: HERE. Here's a relic example: ![]() Thanks to VGMMDI for the video. Romantic - 5 ![]() Real guys know how to dance During the course of the game, you'll meet your Jenny in a restaurant. She'll ask you to dance with her. While dancing, there will be the option to press to kiss her, DO NOT press the button and wait until the end of the song to unlock the achievement. Burned His Mansion - 20 ![]() Kill Luigi Palladino *Vendetta's campaign, cannot be missed.* You'll unlock this achievement at the end of the third chapter in the Vendetta's Campaign. You can play on any difficulty. Coward - 20 ![]() Kill Cedro Valdez *Vendetta's campaign, cannot be missed.* You'll unlock this achievement at the end of the fourth chapter in the Vendetta's Campaign. You can play on any difficulty.

Whipping Boy - 20 ![]() Kill Frank Marshall Complete the "Enter the Gauntlet" mission in the first Hit List. This achievement can be done solo or with your friends on any difficulty. Bonnie & Clyde Wannabes - 20 ![]() Kill Jean-Luc Lambert and Amelie Dubois *Vendetta's campaign, cannot be missed.* You'll unlock this achievement at the end of the sixth mission in the Vendetta's Campaign. You can play on any difficulty. Technical Difficulties - 20 ![]() Kill the NewsWatch 6 team of Tom Dawson, Bud Langley and Sara Stephens Complete the "We Interrupt this Program" mission in the fourth Hit list. This achievement can be done solo or with your friends on any difficulty. The Brotherhood Crumbles - 50 ![]() Complete Vendettas Campaign There are 8 chapters that you'll have to complete in the Vendetta's Campaign to unlock the achievement. You can complete them on any difficulty, solo or with your friends. Dark Ninjutsu - 10 ![]() Complete a mission as Inugami Complete a Vendetta or a Hit List mission while playing as Inugami, online or offline and on any difficulty. Here's a picture of Inugami: ![]() Hell Hath No Fury... - 10 ![]() Complete a mission as Shoshanna Complete a Vendetta or a Hit List mission while playing as Shoshanna, online or offline and on any difficulty. Here's a picture of Shoshanna: ![]() It's 12pm Somewhere! - 10 ![]() Complete a mission as Jimmy Complete a Vendetta or a Hit List mission while playing as Jimmy Wilson, online or offline and on any difficulty. Here's a picture of Jimmy: ![]() Voodoo is More Than Dolls - 10 ![]() Complete a mission as JP Complete a Vendetta or a Hit List mission while playing as JP Dumond, online or offline and on any difficulty. Here's a picture of JP: ![]() Embraced the Darkness - 25 ![]() In Vendettas, acquire all the talents for one character Like in the Single Player Campaign, every character has Talent Trees. You must fully upgrade the trees of any character (JP, Jimmy, Inugami or Shoshanna). Firstly, I would suggest completing a mission with every character to see who's your favorite. Then start playing with him/her. If you go through the Vendetta's Campaign and every Hit List with the same character, you should have earned enough Essence to buy all the Talents. If you want to accelerate the process, play solo on the "Thug" difficulty. Keep executing the enemies (stun them with and execute them with ). You'll receive 30 Essence instead of 10. You can also search for the six Relics throughout the Vendetta's Campaign. You'll receive 300 Essence each.Personally, I love playing with Shoshanna. If you hold , your shotgun will shoot a powerful blast that gives 20 Essence when you kill someone with it. If you destroy enemies' hearts afterwards by pressing , you may receive more than 30 Essence per kill. You've Made My Hit List - 25 ![]() Complete 6 Hit List exclusive missions There's a total of 18 Hit List missions. Eight of them are Vendetta's campaign missions but they won't count towards the achievement. The remaining missions are Hit List exclusive, which means that they do count towards the achievement. Four of them can only be done with partners online and the six remaining can be done solo. Complete six of them on any difficulty to unlock the achievement. Online:

Difficulty 5/10? Seriously? I'd say 3, because it's just too easy to be 5

if you miss 2 guys 1 pole at the start of the swifty level, it can be pulled off at the crane fight. thats where i got it, since the area is smaller and it was easier to line the guys up.

Figured I'd confirm that for Romantic; while dancing with Jenny, don't press anything and let the dance finish. Achievement pops when the dance ends on its own.

Actually thinking I may 100% this tonight if I play for another four or five hours. Guess that depends on the co-op stuff. Have a feeling the 25 kills in the first act will be the last one I have to go back and get.
