Achievement guide

Sometimes even the best spy needs help.

1. Introduction

Framed Collection is a nice puzzle game and the achievements are not too difficult to unlock. They are split between the two games of the collection (Framed and Framed 2), however many of them are actually optional since they require specific optional events to happen while proceeding through the story.

In order to get all the achievements in a single playthrough, I found myself switching between the game and the achievement list more than I expected, looking for clues about how to unlock them. Although I didn't suffer much from it, such a thing can partially ruin the sense of immersion into the story, so I decided to write this guide to help you not overdo it.

Although you won't find any detailed walkthrough or solution, I provided a few tips for making things clearer and easier. I also have (and want) to point out that other guides are already available at the time I'm writing mine but they are not written in English, so I hope that this one will still be useful to someone.

2. Requirements and important info

There are no special requirements to unlock the achievements of the game. Also, there are no missable achievements because every solved page (that is, level) can be played again by selecting it in the comic book. To open it, just click the comic book icon in the top left corner of the screen or press ESC on your keyboard.

The achievement list is divided into three parts:

• The Framed part features the achievements to unlock while playing Framed;
  
• The Framed 2 part features the achievements to unlock while playing Framed 2;
  
• The Miscellaneous part features the remaining achievements.

The achievements not related to page solutions are tagged as "optional", while the achievements hidden in the official list are tagged as "secret".

In order to help you unlock as many achievements as possible in a single playthrough, I sorted the achievements according to their time of unlocking during the story. For each one, I specified the first page it can be unlocked on, using a two-numbers format for referencing the page: the first number indicates the page pair (that is the step/point of progression in the comic book), while the second number indicates the specific page of that pair. For example, page 5-2 corresponds to the second (or right) page of the fifth pair (that is the fifth step/point in the comic book).

3. Framed achievements

Table Manners
Flip a table.

Page 3-1 — Flip the table to protect the spy from bullets.

That's gotta hoit!
Crash into a wall.

Page 4-2, optional — Fail a jump by crashing into a wall. Both a moveable panel and the ending panel contain a wall, just crash into whichever you like.

Taking out the trash
Clean up the city streets.

Page 10-1 — Push the guard and make him fall down into the dustbin.

Train surfing spectator
Move past the window of the onlooking train passengers

Page 16-1, optional — Travel through the panel with the two passengers sitting at the table, while the spy is outside the train. Be careful not to confuse the passengers with the guards (the latter wear a necktie).

Dress Up
Dress up a stranger on a train.

Page 17-2 — Make the sleeping passenger wear something.

Long Drop
Crash into panel with toilet.

Page 20-2, secret — Jump to the facing building and enter the bathroom by crashing the window.

4. Framed 2 achievements

Tour de France
Cycle continuously for 15 panels.

Page 4-1, optional — Travel through 15 panels consecutively while riding the bike. You can travel through the same panels multiple times, each time will count toward the achievement.

Clutz
Be blown through 5 air duct panels.

Page 7-1, optional — Make the spy (likely flying) end up on 5 different air ducts. Different air ducts in a single panel will count toward the achievement.

Allo Beasty
Type 0666 in the padlock.

Page 7-2, optional, secret — Try the lock combination 0666.

What's behind door number 2?
Enter the last panel of the warehouse level from every possible entry.

Page 8-1, optional — Enter the ending panel in every possible way. The ending panel can be entered in 5 different ways, specifically:

• from the left side of the panel;
  
• from the air duct;
  
• from the blue door;
  
• from the red door;
  
• from the green door.

As reported in the guide comments, perhaps it is possible to unlock the achievement just by entering the last panel from the blue door. I haven't personally verified it, but the "standard" solution requires all the entries anyway, so it may be worth starting with that door.

Pied Piper
Lead a follower to crash into a wall.

Page 9-2, optional — Fail a jump by crashing into a wall, making your fellow spy crash as well. The ending panel can be used to unlock the achievement.

Heritage Listed
Beat the Cement Mixer level without crumbling the top ledge.

Page 11-2, optional — Complete the page without making any spy walk on the upper weak ledge. Crumbling the ladder does not affect the achievement unlocking.

My ears!
Knock yourself out with a sonic pulse.

Page 15-1, optional — Ring the bell (using the hammer) without wearing the ear protectors.

No place to Hideo
Use the cardboard box.

Page 17-1, secret — Just use the cardboard box to hide.

Marathon Man
Travel through 25 panels in the box factory.

Page 17-1, optional — Travel through 25 (or more) panels. You can travel through the same panels multiple times, each time will count toward the achievement.

5. Miscellaneous achievements

Persistence
The same incorrect solution 3x in a row.

Any page, optional — Try the same incorrect sequence of panels 3 times in a row. The starting sequence of panels on a page can be used to unlock the achievement.

Got a light?
Complete Framed Collection.

No page — Complete both games.

Standing Ovation
Watch all the credits.

No page, optional — Watch all the credits for both games.

6. Conclusion

Thank you

okay thanks

@BM [Beetle Man] as written in the "important info" section of the guide, for each achievement I used a two-number format to reference the page it can be unlocked on: the first number indicates the page pair (that is the step/point/dot to select in the comic book which allows replaying previous levels), and the second number indicates the specific page of that pair (page 1 is the page on the left, 2 is the page on the right). To find the page you're looking for (I mean, 4-2), you can select the 4th dot/point/step in the level selection menu (that is, the comic book) of the game you're playing, then choose the page on the right. I could be wrong but, if you're looking for the page related to the achievement "That's gotta hoit!", I remember that page contains a brick wall in the final panel.

@_-=([R1dDL3R])=-_ thanks for your feedback. The achievement description was quite direct about what to do, and I remember that I unlocked the achievement on the 5th entry... but it may be that my last door was the blue one, by coincidence. Anyway, I'll add the tip in the guide, thanks again. 👍

@Black Heretic the "What's behind door number 2?" is very specific.
To get it you need to get to the end through the blue door (2nd one) ; )

You might consider editing this entry, on the other hand the peoaple will get it anyways by trying or reading this comment.

Thank you for your great Guide and have a good one.
