This game has given many headaches to people because the achievements are pure evil. There is one achievement that can be done easily with just pressing the hint button, but you need to work hard to get the rest. There are no glitched achievements, no cheats, and no online achievements.

Step 1: Easy achievement (1 for 10)
You can just push the HINT button in Puzzle Mode so you don't need to bother your brain solving the puzzles.

Step 2: Classic, Action & Endless modes (4 for 50)
First make your way through the Classic mode, see more info/help in the guide below
After getting to the 18th level on Classic you get the achievement and you can move onto Action mode. Again no easy way to do this, just practice and try many times. See also tips for this in the guide.
After completing all of those 8 challenging levels, there is one long one to go in this step. Okay, now you have to face the easy but time consuming mode, the Endless mode. You need to complete 280 levels of this mode to get an achievement for it. Check tips in the guide.
After completing all of those you get "MultiMode" achievement worth 20.

Step 3: Twilight, Hyper, Cognito & Finity modes (4 for 80)
If you have made it to here, you can congratulate yourself, you have acquired 60from one of the hardest arcade games ever! You can't play these 3 levels before you complete Classic, Action & Endless mode, but if you have done that, let's start.
Like it's written in the guide, if you were good in Classic mode, there is no doubt you will get this one.
Now we will move onto Hyper mode, it is a faster version of Action mode, just try and try and you should get it sometime in your life. If you're having trouble with Hyper mode, move on to Cognito mode, it's easier.
NOTE: Remember to not use the hint button at all, because it won't give you any points in that level you use the hint button.

Here is a guide written by MysticWeirdo that helps you with Cognito mode: https://www.gamefaqs.com/console/xbox...e/930837/41054
Last one in this step, Finity mode. Like action mode, but in addition to normal gems dropping in you can also get rocks, bombs, and even power gems. Get to level 9 to get the achievement.

Step 4: Power10000, Cascade 8 & Hyper1000 (3 for 60)
If you haven't got these yet after completing Endless mode, just play it again and try to make as many power gems, hypercubes and cascades as you can.
Like it's said in the guide, "Your best chance to receive a x8 cascade is in the earlier levels. Try making combos near the bottom."

Conclusion
So, it's a very hard/time-consuming full 200 game, if you are looking for a fast 200 , don't buy this.

There are 12 achievements with a total of 200 points

  • Awarded for completion of 80 levels

    This is pretty simple because you CAN use the hint button. You can try and get this legit but the quickest way is to just use the hint button repeatedly.

  • Awarded for completion of 17 levels

    This requires a lot of practice. There is no time limit but you can get a game over if you have no more moves. Save your hyper gems and power gems for later levels. Once you reach level 18 you get this achievement.

  • Awarded for completion of 8 levels

    No easy way around this. Here are some tips:

    • Do not use hints, as you will lose a significant chunk off your scoring bar at the bottom
    • Speed counts. If you have a fast eye and fast fingers, you will score big.
    • Set yourself up. If you can make hyper gems and power gems and refrain from using them until you are stuck, do so.
    • You cannot run out of moves. The game will drop combos into the level if you are low on moves so check near the top for quick moves.
    • Once you hit level 5, make as many single moves as you can but ALWAYS keep your eye out for combos. Single moves will barely do anything to the scoring bar.
  • Awarded for completion of 280 levels

    You are going to need a lot of time for this. You cannot run out of moves because the game will automatically start throwing "possible" moves in on the top when you start running low. The best part is, you can save your game, so it doesnt have to be in one sitting. If you're stuck don't bother using the hint button, for this will make your score bar go down, just wait the 15 seconds and it gives you a tip for free.

    Alternative method by Zef...

    A very time consuming achievement, taking around 15,000 minutes (250 hours or 11 days) to complete. You WILL NOT have to play in one go, the game allows you to save your progress when you exit the game. So you can load up your game and chip away at the levels over a longer period.

    You cannot 'lose' in this game mode as the computer will always leave you at least one move to keep the game going, so if you are struggling to find a move look at the top of the grid as that is where you will usually find them. You can also wait for the game to tell you where a moveable piece is, just stay idle for a few seconds and you get a free hint. Useful if you don't feel like looking yourself.

    Besides having a lot of free time to play you should try and make combinations to maximise your score, making power gems and hyper cubes gives you a bonus and destroying them will also give you more points. Take your time to make these pieces as you are not playing against the clock, you might as well spend a little time to get those extra points as well as work towards two other achievements.

  • Awarded for completion of 10 levels

    You get Twilight upon completing 17 levels of classic mode. This achievement is a little easier to get than the Classic Mode one, so if you were good at classic mode, you will no doubt be able to get this.

  • Awarded for completion of 8 levels

    Hyper Mode is a faster version of Action Mode with a slower timer. Get to level 9 to achieve.

  • Awarded for earning 50000 scores

    To get the achivement for Cognito Mode first complete Puzzle mode completely. Then play Cognito mode - if you get stuck do not use the hint button because it will not give you any points for that level. Instead, quit the game (it will save your score and your level) and go back into puzzle mode. Press start and go the the level select screen and find the puzzle that looks like the one you are stuck on in Cognito (All the puzzles for Cognito and Puzzle are the same, they are just in a different order). Go into the right puzzle and use the hint button as many times as you need until you memorize the right order. Then go back to your game in Cognito and complete the level.

  • Awarded for completion of 8 levels

    Finity Mode bears some resemblance to Action mode, in that you have a timer bar to worry about, and in addition to normal gems dropping in you can also get rocks, bombs, and even power gems. Get to level 9 to get this achievement.

  • Awarded for opening Twilight, Hyper, Cognito, Finity modes

    Meet the requirements to unlock the 4 mystery modes. 1 mystery mode is unlocked with each of the classic mode scenarios.
    Finity Mode -- Complete 280 levels of Endless Mode
    Hyper Mode -- Complete 8 levels of Action Mode
    Twilight Mode -- Complete 17 levels of Classic Mode
    Cognito Mode -- Complete Puzzle Mode

  • Awarded for making 10000 power gems

    If you play this on a reqular basis there is no reason why you won't get this eventually. If you are going for the Endless mode achievement, it helps towards the count a lot. You'll probably receive this achievement when you least expect it.

  • Awarded for x8 cascade

    This is purely luck, but your best chance to receive a x8 cascade is in the earlier levels. Try making combos near the bottom. Like I said, its purely luck and if you play enough, I'm sure you'll come across this one.

  • Awarded for making 1000 hyper cubes

    If you play this on a reqular basis there is no reason why you won't get this eventually. If you are going for the Endless mode achievement, it helps towards the count a lot. You'll probably receive this achievement when you least expect it.
