Fairy Tale Mysteries: The Puppet Thief Video Walkthrough & 100% Achievement Guide.

Fairy Tale Mysteries: The Puppet Thief, 100% achievement guide and complete video walkthrough of all HoG's, puzzles and mini games.

Achievement Notes.

Fairy Tale Mysteries: The Puppet Thief is a curious beast as it contains two games in one, the first, the Arbourshire Adventure which is the main game and a bonus chapter in the form of the Bella Isle Adventure.

In total there are 17 achievements, for the main game there are 5 that are not missable, being earned through natural progression and 10 that can be missed, the final 2 achievements are earned through natural progression during the bonus chapter and are not missable.

When playing the main game (the Arbourshire Adventure) play the game on expert difficulty, do not skip any minigame puzzles, do not use hints during any HOG's and do not skip the first 10 movie cutscenes during your playthrough.

As for the bonus, Bella Isle Adventure, you are free to use hints and skips as you please as when you start this bonus game these achievements would have already popped.

Arbourshire Adventure Achivement Guide.

	Townsman.	(No description). This achievement is earned through natural progression and pops the first time you enter the Town Centre.
	Self-sufficient Seeker.	Complete any Hidden Object Scene without using Hint. This achievement is the first that is missable and pops when you complete a HOG without using a hint (if you are going for 100% achievements you should not use hints on any HOG's in the main game). The first opportunity to pop this achievement is the HOG in the Magic Shop on the dressing table, see video guide Chapter 1, part 1 at the 2m58s mark for further help. It should be noted that this achievement relates only to the main story (Arbourshire Adventure) and cannot be earned in the bonus chapter (Bella Isle Adventure) and you are free to use skips and hints in the bonus chapter without affecting achievements.
	Hawkeye.	Find 3 Hidden Objects in 3 seconds. There are 26 HOG's during the main story of Fairy Tale Mysteries: The Puppet Thief and this achievement is easy enough to get in the first HOG, just pause for a moment when it starts, look around and find three of the objects on the list and then click on them all in quick succession. If you need any help with this a full list of the locations of all HOG's and the hidden items within can be found below in my videos with time markers for each HOG to make finding the one you need quick and easy.
	Lightning Bolt.	Finish a Minigame in less than 1 minute. There are several candidates for this achievement, the one most will likely obtain the achievement on is the sewer pipe valve puzzle in the video guide Chapter 2, part 1 at the 12m06s mark another candidate is the Circuit wiring puzzle in video guide Chapter 3 at the 1m12s mark. Again, this must be obtained during the main Arbourshire Adventure story and cannot be obtained during the bonus Chapter, Bella Isle Adventure.
	Fast and Precise.	Finish any Hidden Object Scene in less than 1 minute. This achievement can be a little annoying, if you find it has not popped through natural progression by the end of Chapter 3, use my video guide for Chapter 4 to find all the objects in one of the HOG's during Chapter 4 in advance to make sure you do not miss it as it must be obtained during the main Arbourshire Adventure story.
	Clever.	Finish four Minigames in a row without using Skip. If you are trying to 100% Fairy Tale Mysteries: The Puppet Thief, you should not be skipping any of the minigame puzzles during the main Arbourshire Adventure story and if this is the case this achievement will pop after completing the door lock puzzle in the house next to the puppet shop that leads to the living room , see video guides below for all puzzle locations and solutions if you need help.
	Cage.	(No description). This achievement pops when you release the odd man from the cage in the Morgue basement, see video guide Chapter 2, part 2 for further help.
	Precise Targeting.	Complete one Hidden Object Scene with less than 5 mistakes. Again, this achievement needs to be obtained during the main Arbourshire Adventure story, if you find it has not popped through natural progression by the end of Chapter 3, use my video guide for Chapter 4 to find all the objects in one of the HOG's during Chapter 4 in advance to make sure you do not make any mistakes during a HOG and miss the achievement.
	Crystals.	(No description). This achievement pops as part of your natural progression through the game when you collect the final crystal from the fountain at the Flag arch in town, see video guide Chapter 3 at the 10m43s mark for further help.
	Barrier.	(No description). This achievement pops as part of your natural progression through the game when you use the green crystal on the mansion to clear the fog barrier, see the very beginning of video guide Chapter 4 for further help.
	The Evil One.	(No description). This achievement pops as part of your natural progression through the game when you use the purple crystal on the puppet master to defeat him after the final minigame puzzle, see video guide Chapter 4 at the 10m32s mark for further help.
	Movie Fan.	Watch the first 10 cutscenes. Watch in full and do not skip the first 10 movie cutscenes and this achievement will pop. This will happen during Chapter 1 and once the achievement has popped you are free to skip the movies their after.
	Mastermind.	Finish all minigames without skipping. This achievement will pop just after the final minigame where you match the light sequence on the stage and destroy the puppets in Chapter 4 as long as you have not skipped any minigame puzzles during the main Arbourshire Adventure story.
	Sharp-eyed.	Complete all Hidden Object Scenes without using hint. This achievement will pop at the end of the final hidden object game during Chapter 4 of the main game as long as you have not used any hints during any of the HOG's.
	Expert Gamer.	Finish the game in Expert mode. Assuming you have played the Arbourshire Adventure main game from start to finish on expert difficulty, this achievement will pop during the credits after defeating the puppet master in Chapter 4.
