Notes.
Legends of Atlantis: Exodus has a total of 18 Steam achievements, none of which are technically missable as when you complete one level the next level is unlocked and any previously completed level can be replayed at any time (including Power Crystal & Hidden Object Mini-Game and Bonus Levels).

1. The first point of note is that achievements in Legends of Atlantis: Exodus can only be earned in "Challenge Mode", they will not unlock if you play the game in "Relaxed Mode".

2. All achievements are task related, there are no achievements earned for completing all levels or completing levels in a certain time. As such you do no necessarily need to play all levels to 100% the achievements.

3. One of the achievements can only be earned during one of the Hidden Object Scene Mini-Games the other seventeen achievements are earned in the main game, there are no achievements related to the bonus levels or Power Crystal match three Mini-Games.

4. If you have completed all the levels in the main game and are replaying levels to mop up any achievements that you missed, note that achievements unlock as soon as their requirements are met and there is no need to complete the level to earn the achievement.

Hidden Object Scene Mini-Games.
There are a total of 5 Hidden Object Scene Mini-Games in Legends of Atlantis: Exodus

1. TEMPLE OF WIND becomes available after Episode 1, Level 8
2. TEMPLE OF LIGHT becomes available after Episode 2, Level 7
3. TEMPLE OF FIRE becomes available after Episode 3, Level 10
4. CRYSTAL TEMPLE becomes available after Episode 4, Level 4
5. LIBRARY becomes available after Episode 5, Level 4

The purpose of the Hidden Object Scene Mini-Games is to unlock power-ups for use in future levels of the main game. Once you complete one of the Hidden Object Scenes you can pick one of three available power-ups which are randomly generated, if you do not like the power-ups on offer or gets a bunch of duplicates you can simply replay the Mini-Game until you get a power-up that you want.

Note that there is one achievement related to playing the Hidden Object Scene Mini-Games (Eagle-eye), details of which are noted below in the achievement guide chapter.
Power Crystal Match Three Mini-Games.
There are a total of 5 Power Crystal match three Mini-Games in Legends of Atlantis: Exodus.

1. BOATS becomes available after Episode 1, Level 4
2. DESERT PATHS becomes available after Episode 2, Level 5
3. MINE becomes available after Episode 3, Level 1
4. CRYSTAL MARBLES becomes available after Episode 4, Level 5
5. MACHINE becomes available after Episode 5, Level 7

Unlike the Hidden Object Scene Mini-Games you do not unlock anything by completing these levels, I am unsure exactly, but I believe you may have to complete these levels to simply be able to progress in the main game. I state that I am unsure as I completed these levels on the first try, but I assume there is a possibility that if you fail to complete them in the allotted time you will likely have to replay them till you do, so that you can progress.

Note that there are no achievements relating to the Power Crystal match three Mini-Games.
Bonus Levels.
There are a total of 3 Bonus Levels in Legends of Atlantis: Exodus.

1. Bonus Level 1 becomes available after completing all levels of the main game.
2. Bonus Level 2 becomes available after completing all levels of the main game in expert time.
3. Bonus Level 3 becomes available after unlocking 100% of the achievements in Legends of Atlantis: Exodus.

Note that there are no specific achievements relating to the Bonus Levels, although the 17 achievements relating to the main game can also be unlocked in the Bonus Levels, that said unlocking all 3 Bonus Levels is not required to 100% the game.
Forest Clearing Achievement Guide.
Forest Clearing.
12 trees are chopped down on a single level.
This achievement is either bugged or the description in incorrect (don't worry, it's not broken).

I earned this as part of my natural progression on Episode 1, Level 5 and while there are 13 trees on this level, I somehow managed to earn the achievement after only chopping down 7 of them. Looking back at my gameplay video I can only assume the following...

Clearing fallen timber counted as chopping a tree down, clicking on a tree to add it to the Workers queue and then cancelling the order, still counts as chopping a tree down and clicking on a tree to add it to the Workers queue while their queue is full also counts as chopping a tree down.

My logic for this is, on Episode 1, Level 5...
I chopped down 7 trees, I clicked on 1 tree while a Workers queue was full, I clicked on 1 tree and then cancelled the order and I cleared 3 lots of fallen timber... The total of which is 12.

See video walkthrough for "Episode 1, Level 5" located below the achievement guides for further assistance.
Eagle-eye Achievement Guide.
Eagle-eye.
Any hidden object level completed in 45 seconds.
To earn this achievement you must complete one of the Hidden Object Mini-Games in less than 45 seconds. You can replay any of the Mini-Games as many times as you wish once unlocked and the location of the items that you need to find is not randomised.

As such, just replay the Temple of Wind Mini-Game (unlocked after Episode 1, Level 8) until the location of all the items sticks in your head, and you complete the game in less than 45 seconds.

See video walkthrough for "Temple of Wind" located below the achievement guides for further assistance.
Crime Does Not Pay Achievement Guide.
Crime Does Not Pay.
3 Robbers are defeated within a minute.
"Robbers" are the guys that look like barbarians that block paths and can only be cleared using the Soldier, which becomes available after building the Watchtower.

The easiest level to earn this achievement on is Episode 2, Level 6, simply clear the path to the Robbers to the north and west, build the Watchtower and accumulate 15 Crystals. Then click on the Robber to the west, then the Robber to the north and as soon as the northern Robber is eliminated click on the Robber directly behind him and the achievement will be yours.

See video walkthrough for "Episode 2, Level 6" located below the achievement guides for further assistance.
Aquarius Achievement Guide.
Aquarius.
50 buckets of Water remained at the end of the level.
To earn this achievement you must have 50 or more buckets of Water in stock at the end of the level.

I earned this achievement as part of my natural progression on Episode 2, Level 9 as there is a decent supply of water and very little is required to complete the level. On this level there are two water sources, the Well to the south outputs 5 buckets per cycle and the Well in the middle outputs 3 buckets per cycle and without any conscious effort I ended the level with 72 buckets in stock.

See video walkthrough for "Episode 2, Level 9" located below the achievement guides for further assistance.
Jeweller Achievement Guide.
Jeweller.
50 pieces of Crystals remained at the end of the level.
To earn this achievement you must have 50 or more Energy Crystals in stock at the end of the level.

I earned this achievement as part of my natural progression on Episode 2, Level 9. On this level there are four sources of Energy Crystals (and also some rocks containing Crystals that are blocking paths) providing plenty of Crystals and few are required to complete the level.

The building just to the north of the Worker's Lodge outputs 2 per cycle, the building to the east of the Worker's Lodge also outputs 2 per cycle, the Town Square at the top of the map outputs 5 per cycle and the buildable Crystal Mine in the northeast corner of the map outputs 3 per cycle (once built) and without any conscious effort I ended the level with 65 Energy Crystals.

See video walkthrough for "Episode 2, Level 9" located below the achievement guides for further assistance.
Maximum Production Achievement Guide.
Maximum Production.
All 4 production buildings (Sawmill, Crystal Mine, Well and Quarry) upgraded to level 3 on a single level.
To earn this achievement you must build a Sawmill, Crystal Mine, Well and Quarry, and then upgrade all four buildings to level 3, all on the same level.

There are few levels that contain all four buildings and even fewer where they can be upgraded to level 3, I managed to earn the achievement on Episode 2, Level 9, another possible candidate to earn the achievement is Episode 5, Level 9.

Hunting Season Achievement Guide.
Hunting Season.
3 Monsters are defeated within a minute.
Monsters are the green creatures with three heads that look like mythological Hydras that block paths and can only be cleared using the Hunter, which becomes available after building the Hunters Hut.

The easiest level to earn this achievement on is Episode 2, Level 10, simply clear a path to the three monsters, build the Hunters Hut, collect 12 energy crystals & 3 timber and then click on all three monsters at once, and the achievement will be yours.

See video walkthrough for "Episode 2, Level 10" located below the achievement guides for further assistance.
Stone Age Achievement Guide.
Stone Age.
50 pieces of Stone remained at the end of the level.
To earn this achievement you must have 50 or more Stone in stock at the end of the level.

I earned this achievement as part of my natural progression on Episode 3, Level 1. On this level other than the Stones blocking paths that can be cleared & harvested, there is a Quarry that can be built that outputs 5 Stone per cycle. While the source of Stone on this level is limited, there is very little Stone required to complete the level and without any conscious effort I ended the level with 73 Stone in stock.

See video walkthrough for "Episode 3, Level 1" located below the achievement guides for further assistance.
Totally Lazy Achievement Guide.
Totally Lazy.
One of the Workers not doing anything for a minute.
To earn this achievement you must have one Worker constantly idle (not working) for 60 continuous seconds.

This can easily be done by starting any level and simply doing nothing till the achievement pops, I was however able to earn the achievement as part of my natural progression on Episode 3, Level 5. On this level you rely heavily on the Fortune Machine for resources and so towards the end of the level, one Worker will be constantly using the machine while the other stands around idle.

See video walkthrough for "Episode 3, Level 5" located below the achievement guides for further assistance.
Pioneer Achievement Guide.
Pioneer.
3 obstacles are being cleared simultaneously.
Obstacles are anything that blocks a Worker's path (excluding Robbers and Monsters). To earn this achievement 3 obstacles must be in the process of being removed at the same time (you must start work on clearing the third before the timer for clearing the first has run down).

As you need to be working on all three obstacles at the same time, you will require 3 Workers and while there are many levels where you will have access to 3 Workers (or automatons) there are few where you will have access to 3 while there are still 3 obstacles to clear.

I managed to earn this achievement as part of my natural progression on Episode 3, Level 6 (but sadly failed to record it) and as far as I could see this is the easiest and possibly the only level that it can be earned on without prior planning and notable effort.

Simply harvest 2 wood (you start with 8) and upgrade the Worker's Lodge to level 3 and then harvest 9 crystals and 1 water (from the building in the top right). Then in quick succession clear the stone blocking the path up to the hill on the top left, and a stone on the left and right side of the path between the two hills at the top of the screen.
Gambler Achievement Guide.
Gambler.
Fortune Machine is used 5 times on a single level.
To earn this achievement you must use the Fortune Machine at least 5 times in the same level.

I earned this achievement as part of my natural progression without any conscious effort on Episode 3, Level 7 and there are probably a couple of other levels you might earn this on without trying, such as Episode 3, Level 5.

If you do not earn this achievement as part of your natural progression just fire up Episode 3, Level 7, clear the two crystal rocks blocking the way to the door in the southeast to gain access to the Fortune Machine, use it 5 times, and you can quit the level once the achievement pops.

See video walkthrough for "Episode 3, Level 7" located below the achievement guides for further assistance.
Lucky Achievement Guide.
Lucky.
3 of a kind on the Fortune Machine without a wildcard.
To earn this achievement you must use the Fortune Machine and get a result of three of the same resource, excluding wildcards (the sun is the wildcard).

As per the title of the achievement, earning this is based on nothing more than luck. I did not manage to earn this as part of my natural progression and ended up replaying Episode 3, Level 7 several times to earn it (as Episode 3, Level 7 give the quickest access to a Fortune Machine, just clear the two crystal rocks blocking the way to the door in the south to gain access to the Fortune Machine).

Just keep playing this level using the Fortune Machine as often as possible and when it eventually pops, you can just quit the level, there is no need to complete the level to earn the achievement.

Woodshed Achievement Guide.
Woodshed.
50 pieces of Wood remained at the end of the level.
To earn this achievement you must have 50 or more Wood in stock at the end of the level.

Unlike the other "have 50 in stock" resource achievements, this one is notably harder due to the fact that most levels require the use of a significant amount of Wood to complete.

I earned this achievement as part of my natural progression on Episode 3, Level 9. On this level other than the trees and timber blocking paths there is a Sawmill that can be built that outputs 5 Wood per cycle. While the source of Wood on this level is limited, there is very little required to complete the level and without any conscious effort I ended the level with 64 Wood in stock.

See video walkthrough for "Episode 3, Level 9" located below the achievement guides for further assistance.
Automatization Achievement Guide.
Automatization.
3 Clockwork Men are active at the same time.
"Clockwork Men" are the robots that you can activate in exchange for some Power Crystals and use as Workers for a limited time before they disintegrate. To earn this achievement you need to have 3 of the Clockwork Men working for you at the same time in a single level and to my knowledge, there is just one level where it is possible to do this, Episode 4, Level 5.

On this level there are 7 Clockwork Men available, each costing 9 Crystal to activate and lasting for exactly 60 seconds once activated. This can however be slightly prolonged as if they are still in the middle of a task once the 60 seconds expires they will complete the task before disintegrating.

As such you have to activate 3 Clockwork Men within 60 seconds to unlock the achievement, this takes a little conscious effort, just make sure to have a clear path to three of them before trying and that you have 27 Energy Crystals in stock as well.

See video walkthrough for "Episode 4, Level 5" located below the achievement guides for further assistance.
Manpower Achievement Guide.
Manpower.
Workers' Lodge is upgraded to level 3 in the first minute.
To earn this achievement you must upgrade the Worker's Lodge to level 3 within the first 60 seconds of the game.

I earned this achievement on Episode 5, Level 3 but sadly failed to record it. If you do not earn this achievement as part of your natural progression simply fire up Episode 3, Level 6, here you will need 10 wood and 8 crystals to upgrade the Worker's Lodge to level 3 and you start with 8 of both, as such you only need to grab the wood from the ledge above the Worker's Lodge and then upgrade the Lodge twice in succession, giving you ample time to complete the achievement.
Storage Full Achievement Guide.
Storage Full.
99 pieces are reached from any resource type.
To earn this achievement you must have 99 of any one resource in stock at the end of the level, that's 99 Wood or 99 Stone or 99 Crystals or 99 Water.

On Episode 5, Level 3 build and upgrade the Well to level 3 as quickly as possible and every time the buckets of water spawn collect them asap and you will have 99 water in stock within expert time. While I earned this on Episode 5, Level 3 I failed to record it, I did however manage to have 99 Water in stock at the end of Episode 2, Level 9 while I was recording the Maximum Production achievement.

Trader Achievement Guide.
Trader.
10 successful merchant deals on a single level.
To earn this achievement you must trade with a merchant at least 10 times in the same level.

On Episode 5, Level 4 build the Marketplace as quickly as possible which will then spawn 2 merchants. The completion time for the level is around 7m30s which will then give you ample time to complete 10 trades with them.

See video walkthrough for "Episode 5, Level 4" located below the achievement guides for further assistance.
Construction Time Achievement Guide.
Construction Time.
3 buildings are being built or upgraded simultaneously.
Buildings consist of the Sawmill, Quarry, Mine, Well, Storehouse and Worker's Lodge. To earn this achievement you must be building or upgrading three of these at the same time (you must start work on building or upgrading the third before the timer for building or upgrading the first has completed).

On Episode 5, Level 9 there is unhindered access to 5 buildings from the start of the game, play as normal making sure not to upgrade the Sawmill, Quarry and Well beyond level 2. Upgrade the Worker's Lodge to level 3, then gather 15 wood and 15 crystals and upgrade the Sawmill, Quarry and Well all at the same time to level 3 to earn this achievement.

The Worker's Lodge, Storehouse and Workshop cost much more to upgrade, so just upgrade these as required during the playthrough.
