Three Minutes to Eight – Achievements Guide

Intro

Some achievements could require more of a play-run to be unlocked. At the end of a loop, try to keep an item that be useful to unlock the achievement you are interested about.

Some elements are random so sometimes you must repeat your run until they appear. In the instruction, I tried to be as detailed as possible but obviously some steps could be not necessary.

You can smoke a cigarette to pass a minute.

And finally, when you end a loop, the memory of the main charachter is resetted. That means you must repeat some dialogues and actions to obtain some info for proceed.

Achievements
