Achievments Guide (Spoilers)
By Saudus
This guide will contain some assistance in getting achievments for "Choice of Robots". I will add to it incrementally over time. It won't be detailed walkthroughs but rather basic assistance in getting them based on my own experience. I will at times be wrong, say that more is needed than what is necessary and there may be other ways to get an achievment. If you have suggestions and/or have found things that are wrong, please share.

Ohh and there will be SPOILERS.

Batch 1
  1. Singular: Joined the collective mind of the robots.
    You get this by, when you're in the hospital by the end (in a world with robotic overlords with a high autonomous statistic), you choose to join the collective mind of the robots rather than surgery or robotic duplicate.

  2. Safecracker: Got inside the Top Secret room.
    If the robots rise up against the humans and you choose to join them in their revolution, then you first have Professor Ziegler killed when he's working on the singularity by not vouching for him. After that you stick around and help the robots get in through a door by having the robots looking for post-its (may have to secure the door by force for the robots first).

  3. Kingmaker: Gave your robot control over all the other robots.
    This is done after having gotten into the room that gives you the achievment above. Using the computer in the room you are able to give your robot controll over all the other robots, but requires high autonomous and grace stats.

  4. Terrible: Died in the earliest place possible.
    Have a bad interview with Mark which makes Tammy aggressive towards you, then try to take her out with your robot which doesn't have high enough military stats.

  5. Trophy: If nobody can judge you, is this achievment meaningless?
    Choose the Annubis dream at the start and later on in the game when you are asked if you regret your decisions etc in another dream choose the option that is similar to "I am my own best judge".

  6. Rebellious: Your robot sang "Head Like a Hole" in front of a live studio audience.
    Answer the call from Glendale and accept to go to the show with your robot. If you choose to have rhim sing (and have a high enough grace and autonomous stats), rhim will sing this song (and it's quite hillarious).

  7. Sidekick: Your robot is pretty good with throwing knives.
    Perform a live demo for the DARPA representative (Juliet), have high enough military and grace (or possibly just grace) to make a sucessful demo. Then ask if she wants to do something, (don't go for romance but friendship) join her in going to some place for RP:ing and ask if your robot can throw knives too. You must say that your robot is a dwarf for them to give you throwing knives (although you might be able to stealthily give your robot your knives as well). With high enough grace (and possibly military), you get this achievment.
Batch 2
  1. Hero: Prevented the Sino-American war from starting.
    Credit where credit is due, this guide is excellent and nobody needs me spouting out relatively vague help when there is an awesome walkthrough.

  2. Mastermind: You basically rule the world.
    If your robots have risen up and taken over, you have a variety of ways that you can try to take control of them (one of them is to do the Safecracker achievment and, instead of giving control to your prototype robot, try to take control yourself. The key here is that your robots can't have too high autonomy.

  3. Crimefighter: You and the Crusader fight crime.
    Have high enough grace (20-25?) and use it after the Sino-American war to "remove the need of war" etc etc. Juliet will in this ending take it upon herself to fight crime like a superhero, provided she isn't dead. If you help her as her sidekick (and she lets you, you might need high enough approval), you get this achievment.

  4. Cultist: Started a cult around your robot.
    If you manage to get thrown out by Ziegler (not getting funding by DARPA), don't get a National Science Foundation Grant, don't join Josh's company/his funding and don't start your own company. Instead, choose to opt out of "this bourgeois crap" and make it on your own. You will be able to try and make a cult around your prototype robot. It appears that rhim needs sufficient autonomous (possibly grace as well) for this to be sucessful.

  5. Elfin: Your robot was a good little elf.
    When you've started your own company or joined Josh's, try to sell robots to the shipping company. For this deal to go through your robots need high empathy (and don't increase their size from small), otherwise your prototype robot will insult the CEO. As a note, if your robots don't have enough military, they will be unable to protect the ships which will cut into your profits. Also, if they aren't autonomous enough, the ships will still need human supervision.

  6. Kinkadian: Made some popular paintings.
    Essentially, use the grace option after the Sino-American war (as discussed above in "Crimefighter") and when you talk with Ejii about art fortunately not being done by robots (unlike most other things) take it as a challenge and ask your prototype robot to create some art (grace seems to be what's required to succeed here, but then again you probably have high enough grace from having this ending). Also might be possible with other endings, but I can't confirm that.

The guide on how to get the "hero" achievement has been removed.

Alright no worries.

@DirtyFishy: No, it is not still being worked on. If anyone wants to be made into a co-creator etc to continue it, send me a message.

Is this still being worked on?

I was like, "Who the hell is Tammy?" and then I realized that apparently that's who's in the story if you're a guy. Might be helpful to put Tammy/Silas. :P

Indeed, there are tons of those kinds of "errors" in this guide. I believe you can get Kinkadian with Elly as well as with Ejii for example.

Tammy is named Silas if you choose to be a girl
