Use the first-action group as onboarding
First Battle, Architect, New Companion, Foil Chaser, Learning & Evolving and Shiny Tracker expose several systems with simple first-time goals. They are useful as an orientation checklist, not a mandatory order. If one remains locked, read its exact Steam wording and compare it with the action completed in game. Similar actions can differ: seeing a creature is not capturing it, building a Structure is not necessarily upgrading one, and creating a Foil is separate from capturing a Foil.
Track long arcs without turning them into chores
The medal, collection and progression groups contain goals that can span much of a playthrough: seven medals, 20 Missions, 30 discovered recipes, 100 Booster Packs, 40 rival Scouts and broad creature collections. Use the local Achievement Tracker to mark confirmed unlocks and keep the remaining list visible. The browser stores that checklist locally; it does not claim access to your Steam account or automatically infer completion from in-game activity.
Interpret achievement wording literally
The public descriptions are concise, so avoid adding conditions they do not state. “Capture all Fire Stackmons” does not publish a roster. “Close All Soot Rifts” does not reveal the total count. “Reach max level with a Stackmon” does not disclose the maximum level. The achievement proves the target exists, while the current game must supply the roster, count, level or route. This distinction lets the checklist remain useful without pretending to be a hidden-data database.
Handle blank or changing descriptions
Gaia’s Hero is visible in the public list without a displayed unlock description, so the site preserves the name and marks the condition unknown. If Steam later publishes text, the evidence ledger and this guide should be updated together. Live global completion percentages stay on Steam because they change continuously. A static snapshot would become stale quickly and could make an ordinary achievement look rarer or more common than it currently is.
