Arachnophobia achievement bugged

[WFlash]

So today I finished this game, which I thoroughly enjoyed, but I have a problem with the achievement called "Arachnophobia".

I have killed all 5 of the spiders in the game (2 of them on the upper catacombs bridge and the remaining 3 on the lower chamber with the banners) using both traps and throwable items, but the achievement didn't pop up. As I saved the game just before entering that chamber, I reloaded and tried to kill them a couple more times to see if it worked but nothing happened.

Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a certain way you have to kill all of them for the achievement to work?

I doubt that you need to kill them in a specific way (I think I used a traps and bottles), but it might be worth reporting under the bugs section or on their own forums.

Same problem

Same here.

Searching a little bit on the official website forums I found a bunch of people with similar bugs: achievements either not popping up and / or being awarded incorrectly (i.e. stealing all handkerchiefs achievement popping up on the courtyard before even arriving at the harbour and finding the guards there).

So I guess some achievements are just glitchy and there is not much we can do about it; at least that I know of...

After second walkthrough. I think there's another spider. Walking on the lower floor I heard the cries of a spider that is alive. I killed 5. But it seems that there is a 6th that is stuck in the wall or floor.

I believe one of those spiders is bugged.

For me, one was doing noises everytime I got close by (even if it was supposed to be dead) + it did some weird animation, then "dead" again.

Same here—I've killed five spiders, but I hear one screech whenever I walk the path from the magpie area to duinlan's coffin

Same

No 6x spiders, I went through it 5 times or more, and several hours trying to get an achievement in various ways, I found that the animation of the spider was unsuccessful, killing the spider by going to the lower room, they appear again and make sounds, entering the main room, they doing animation, that they are dead, this is the lack of developers at this it's brother fiasco

I had the exact same issue; just completed the game tonight and after killing the last three spiders, the achievement didn't spawn. I did it again, and it didn't pop up again.

I have the latest version of the game.

I have the same problem playing on Origin, Version 7.91. I also see the dead bodies move a bit when I re-enter the lower hall and hear a screech as if one is still alive.

Having this problem as well, killed all the spiders but when I get close to a dead one below the Magpie, it twitches out briefly then goes back to being still. The game doesn't seem to register that it's dead.

Edit: it's fixed!
