Monster_Society:
Fairly certain that's just a Playstation trophy.
It's not an achievement here on Steam. I've got all achievements except apparently "That's Not Funny" and "Oh Rusty Anchor", and Steam reports 2 hidden achievements for me.

[Monster_Society]

How do I get the final Achievement "Number Nine Ticket?" I've unlocked every other achievement in the game, so it should be working, but it isn't giving it to me!!! I've even looked up guides online on getting it, and apparently it's a little buggy, but what do I do??

NOTE: Year 2 Achievement: "Oh, yeah, I can take you down" -- where you convince Aitor (the big guy who rolls a barrel into the kitchen) to open the elevator for you -- is MISSABLE. If you don't talk to him after the first scene where he walks by, you won't be able to catch him again.

This is really helpful! Thanks!

@rogermorse - guessing that by now you've figured the tank control thing out, but in my experience, i used mouse throughout game, but with tank controls enabled in Options, & 'The Right Way' dropped normally during closing part of game - Year 4. Cheers

[rogermorse]

Hey guys, about the 'tank control' achievement....In any case I find it better with tank controls, but I think I will play this on my tablet and the game with touch controls is great. Will it void the achievement? Basically it would be like playing point/click with the mouse instead of moving with the arrows.....as long as the tank controls are enabled in the settings, will it be ok to use the mouse?
