Trivia[]
- Amnesia: The Bunker has the second-most unmissable story achievements of any game in the series, as it's theoretically possible to complete the game with a minimum number of 7 necessary achievements.
- Amnesia: Rebirth has the most unmissable story achievements, at 22 (19 unmissable achievements, plus one out of two torture-related options, plus one out of three ending options). Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs has the absolute fewest at 5 necessary achievements, followed by Amnesia: The Dark Descent with the second-fewest at 6 necessary achievements (five story-related, plus any one of three possible ending achievements).
- Amnesia: Justine technically has fewer necessary achievements, at precisely 1 necessary achievement upon completion (any one of three possible ending achievements), but Justine is a side campaign DLC and so would not count if restricted to "full-length" games. Thus its achievements are usually combined with The Dark Descent.
- Analyzing achievements as a proportion of the total (adding the Justine achievements to those of The Dark Descent), 39% of the game's achievements are unmissable.
- This ranks it roughly in the middle of the series for proprotions of achievements being unmissable—A Machine for Pigs is first proportionately with 71% of it achievements being unmissable, then Rebirth second at 54% unmissable achievements, and The Bunker is last at 17% unmissable achievements.
