All PAPERHEAD achievements (25)

Updated: 3 min read

Before you start

  • Unlock rates are as of launch evening (October 9, 2026). They mostly reflect people who played early, so they will drop over time — the hard achievements will get even rarer.
  • Names and descriptions are shown exactly as Steam displays them. Several descriptions are deliberately cryptic — where the developers do not reveal the condition, we say so.
  • We will add how to unlock the secrets and characters once we have verified them. No guessing.

An order that saves time: Blood Runner and HOTLINE need the character unlocked first (Jeb The Scientist and Super Bandage Boy). If you are replaying the game anyway, do it as one of them — the same run can also move you toward PERFECT ranks.

Secrets

These achievements have cryptic or empty descriptions. The developers deliberately keep the conditions hidden.
