[Gen4ik]

"trying to achievement but steam is not available" - why ?

[Mar044]

Thanks for the guide

[Paul]

Weatherman unlocked on the 3rd day for me.

[MASTAN]

@Paul You can get all of them in one playthrough. The order may not be optimal though.

[Paul]

Are these in optimal/chronological order? Can I get all in one playthrough?

[Avalon]

No worries, thanks for this guide. The fire extinguisher is not the one in the hall, it's blue

[MASTAN]

Sorry, it's been so long that I don't remember. Better check let's play videos.

[Avalon]

Was the fire extinguisher supposed to be able to be picked up? Not sure why but I can't pick it up when trying to make the baked alaska. I can only look at it

[Artemis.YT]

I'll need to restart for the Weatherman achievement. Wish it wasn't at the bottom of the list.

[c_Alien]

Had trouble getting the "Everyday I'm Calculatin'" achievement.
I had to turn the games language to English (from German), to make it work.
