Introduction

Stick It to the Man is a 2-D puzzle platformer that follows the story of Ray, a man who awakens in a strange dream world where he must use his brain to manipulate the world and read the minds of those around him. The story is short, but enjoyable, consisting of just ten chapters, each taking an average of half an hour to complete. Currently the game is listed at $9.99 in the Xbox One Store.

 

Step 1: Complete the game

Play through the entire game following the order of the achievements in the Guide. There are no story-related achievements, so technically you could complete the entire game without unlocking any achievements. While there are no truly missable achievements due to the presence of chapter select, all of them can be missed which will force the replay of an entire chapter. Be especially aware of the "A Mind is a Terrible Thing to Waste" achievement, which requires you read the mind of every single character in the game. As you are working through each chapter, focus on reading the mind of everyone. This will not be a major problem, as the story takes you to just about all characters. See that achievement for more specific information.

 

Step 2: Mop-up

After completing the game, mop-up any of the achievements you missed via chapter select. Following the Guide, only the "A Mind is a Terrible Thing to Waste" achievement might need some work.

 

Conclusion

Stick It to the Man is a quick and enjoyable game that will cough up all 1000 Gamerscore in less than five hours if following this Guide.

GUIDE

Chapter 1: No Achievements

 

Chapter 2: No Achievements

 

Chapter 3:

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3202/90779-lo.jpg Drowned Skeletons - 60 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Read the minds of the drowned skeletons

 

Near the end of Chapter 3, located at the far right edge of the map, there will be two guards, one with a gun. After you scare them away using the small dog, they will run off-screen to the right. Follow them to discover their skeletal remains of the two guards in the water. Read both their minds to unlock this achievement.

Chapter 4: No Achievements

 

Chapter 5:

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3202/90780-lo.jpg Decoyception - 60 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Have enemies chasing other enemies chasing you

 

Chapter 5 is the first time you will be able to use decoy stickers, which are required for this achievement. There are two types of guards, those with guns and the tall ones with striped suits. In Chapter 5, progress down until you come across two guards to your left. One is higher, and one is lower. Read the mind of the lower guard, then grab the decoy sticker. Place the decoy sticker on the bottom guard. The top guard will begin to chase the other. Now, you can drop down and the decoyed guard will chase you, popping this achievement. Be quick enough as once the guard gets to the decoy, he will beat him up and the decoy will fall off. Afterwards, then restart the checkpoint and continue story progression. If you happen to miss this achievement in Chapter 5, fear not, as it is obtainable in most chapters afterwards (with the exception of Chapter 8) and it will most likely pop without even trying.

Return a totally sweet alien to the stars

 

In Chapter 6, near the right side of the base of the large central tower, you will come across an old woman who needs an inflatable duck inner tube to get to outer space. To find the duck, head all the way to the left on the lowest level of the map. As soon as you give it to her and she floats away, the achievement will unlock.

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3202/90782-lo.jpg Tower Offense - 60 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Climb the asylum tower without alerting any nurses

 

In Chapter 6, in the middle of the map, there is a large tower, which is quite obvious. Starting from the bottom, you need to climb the entire way to the top of the tower without being detected to unlock this achievement. There are two spotlights and three nurses to avoid. If you get caught, you will simply spawn at the checkpoint below the tower and are free to try again. Follow the path detailed below to obtain this achievement with ease.

 

Start at the bottom left of the tower. Proceed to the right, dodging the first spotlight and going under the first nurse. Teleport up to the red pin. Go left and up until you are directly under the second nurse. Read her mind and get the sleeping sticker. Then use it on her. Jump around to the right until you are on the platform directly above the nurse. Make sure to stay on the far right of this platform, or the third nurse will spot you. Wait for the sleeping nurse to wake, then read her mind again to get another sticker. Now use the sticker on the third nurse to make her go to sleep. Climb right past her and up to the very top room of the tower, using the red pin to warp inside the top room, unlocking this achievement.

Read the mind of a lonely cat

 

In Chapter 6, you will come to a women holding a dead cat. To unlock this achievement, you need to first obtain the dead mouse. This can be found on the top left portion of the map on the roof. Read the mind of the man who thinks he is a piece of cheese and collect the dead mouse sticker. Return to the woman with the dead mouse sticker equipped. She will drop the cat on the ground to follow you. Read the mind of the now abandoned feline to pop this achievement.

Read Harry's mind while he's passed out

 

In Chapter 6, towards the end, you will come to a man digging a tunnel underground. By giving him a poster referred to as "good news", he will tunnel upwards, creating an escape from the asylum. A guard will be instructed to watch the tunnel and will appear down there. This guard is Harry. Through story progression, you will release a ghost that will scare Harry and cause him to pass out. Once he does, read his mind to unlock this achievement.

Read the minds of the ambulance personnel

 

In Chapter 6, near the very end, after escaping the asylum through the tunnel, you will immediately come to a crashed ambulance. Pull the paper side of the ambulance down to reveal the occupants, the skeletons of the EMT crew. Read their minds to unlock this achievement.

Chapter 7:

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3202/90788-lo.jpg The Bird in the Sky - 60 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Never get noticed by the helicopter

 

This is the toughest achievement in the game, but it is not too bad with a little planning. In Chapter 7, there will be two sections you need to complete without being caught by a helicopter. If at any point you get noticed by the helicopter, immediately return to the Xbox One Home screen, push Menu and force Quit the game. When you load back in, choose to Continue to load the last checkpoint. Failure to do this quickly could void the achievement, forcing a complete replay of this chapter. Read on for text instructions to obtain this achievement, or check out the video below for a more visual experience.

 

Early in the chapter, on the bottom level while heading right, a cut scene will play showing the helicopter. This is the beginning of section one. You will notice a red pin to the right. Wait until the helo is moving to the right and just passes the pin. Warp to it and quickly scurry to the right and down to hide in a "C-shaped" nook before the helicopter returns. As soon as it passes you heading left, head right as fast as you can and warp to the next pin, completing the first section.

 

Continue story progression until you are up on the higher level, heading left. The helicopter will appear again. Read the mind of the closest guard to get a sleep sticker. When the helo and the guard go left, warp to the top pin, use the sticker on the guard and go past him, hiding below and to the left in another "C-shaped" nook. Now, as soon as the helicopter passes heading right, warp up to the red pin and head left, avoiding the second guard and reaching cover to the left, completing the second section.

 

*NOTE* This achievement may be quite generous. Some users report being spotted (but not physically caught, to the point that the checkpoint is restarted) by the helicopter on several occasions and the achievement still unlocked after section two.

Give poor Ron the perfect idea for a date

 

In Chapter 7, in the middle area of the map, before the police barricade, you will see a tower-like building. Remove the flap covering the window to find Ron. He will be sad about the loss of a recent girlfriend. To make him happy and unlock this achievement, head to the building located in the top left corner of the map. Once you get there, remove the flap covering the building next to the woman with the big red hair to reveal a poster sticker. Take this poster back to Ron to cheer him up and pop this achievement.

Read the mind of an eaten fish

 

In Chapter 7, early on you will pass a seagull perched on a sign above you. Though story progression, you will eventually see the bird fly up and eat a goldfish. After seeing this, head back down to the seagull's original location perched on the sign at the far bottom left of the map. Read the mind of the gold fish, located inside the stomach of the seagull, to unlock this achievement. NOTE: Do this before giving the seagull the tuna cake. Otherwise, you will not be able to read the fish's mind.

Chapter 9:

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3202/90789-lo.jpg Unnatural Talent - 60 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Read Luigi's mind while he's singing

 

In Chapter 9, in the first area in the middle level, you will come to a section with a choir of three zombie singers. The one of the right, Luigi, is unable to sing because he is missing a mouth. Head down to the very far left of the map to find an Elvis zombie with a guitar. Take the sticker and head up and to the right to find another Elvis zombie, upset that his brother is a more accomplished musician than him. Give him the guitar and then take his singing lips. Return with said lips to Luigi and read his mind once he starts singing to unlock this achievement.

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3202/90791-lo.jpg Dangerous Work - 60 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Mind-read the recently departed

 

In Chapter 9, in the first area before the Yeti plows through the door, you will see a zombie and a blonde woman, standing over a rifle. Go up and to the left to grab a chimney sticker. From the zombie and woman, head right to find Santa. Use the chimney sticker near him and he will go down the chimney, revealing a gift sticker. Take this sticker and return it to the zombie and woman. The zombie will give the present to the teacher, she will shock him, the present will fall and set off the gun, shooting the woman. After she is dead, read her mind to unlock this achievement.

Read the minds of an unexpected couple

 

In Chapter 9, after you give the bald Yeti the hair sticker, the Yeti will grab her obsession, the nearby guard, and plow through an adjacent door (all of this is story-related). Proceed through the door and notice that the Yeti and guard are sharing an embrace above. Read both their minds to unlock this achievement.

Ready Ray's mind

 

In Chapter 9, at the very beginning when your brain has just been removed and is glowing pink in the tubing, immediately read Ray's mind in the chair to the right (before removing the tape from the pipes). You can also obtain this achievement a little later in Chapter 9 when you are controlling Ray's brain. Once you come to Ray, floating outside in space, you can read his brain there as well, as long as you do it before giving him the air tank sticker.

Get chased by 5 enemies at the same time

 

In Chapter 9, near the end of the chapter after using the missile sticker to break the steel door, you will come to an area of platforms with five guards. This will be your first chance to obtain this achievement, as there are not enough guards in any prior location. Use the spotlight to draw attention to yourself and warp around using the red pins. The trick is getting all five guards to actually notice and chase you at the same time. This will take a few tries, but luckily there is a checkpoint immediately beforehand. See the video guide below if you are having trouble. If you managed to get five guards to follow you at once, the achievement will pop right away.

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3202/90778-lo.jpg A Mind is a Terrible Thing to Waste - 100 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Read the minds of everyone ever

 

This achievement requires that you read the mind of every single character (including all people, robots, zombies, brains, and animals) in the game. In total, there are 134 minds to read, spread across the chapters of the game as follows:

 

  • Chapter 1: 0 minds
  • Chapter 2: 0 minds
  • Chapter 3: 18 minds
  • Chapter 4: 20 minds
  • Chapter 5: 10 minds
  • Chapter 6: 25 minds
  • Chapter 7: 13 minds
  • Chapter 8: 0 minds
  • Chapter 9: 32 minds
  • The Final Chapter: 16 minds

This task may seem daunting, but the levels are not that large and most of the characters are directly along your path to completing the game. Be sure to follow the guide for the other achievements, as generally the achievements are tied to the more elusive characters. Use the map as it is a vital tool. Always explore question marks on the map. Once you read someone's mind, their map icon will change to a solid pink oval. Before completing each chapter, scan the map for any remaining question marks. Following this procedure will ensure you have very little mop-up after finishing the story. Be aware that by progressing the story and completing certain actions can render certain minds un-readable. Always read the mind of new characters immediately when you come across them. After completing the game, from the chapter-select screen, you can see how many minds you have read in each chapter.

 

INFO: A few of the minds in the final chapter can be easily missed. Make sure to read Ray's mind immediately at the beginning of the chapter while he is in the chair (see the "Out of His Mind" achievement). Also read Ray's mind again before giving him the air tank while he is floating in space. Make sure to read Ray's girlfriend Arlene's mind as well. And finally, in the very top room of the map in the final area of the chapter, in the upper right corner of the room, is a robot. He is partially-concealed off the screen. You need to jump and while in mid-air, read his mind.

 

If you are having trouble with any chapter, check out the video below.

Thanks guys. Guide should be 100% complete now.

 

It is broken down in the exact order you should come across them while playing through the game.

 

EDIT: Also, does anyone with more experience embedding videos know why they are just showing up as links in the guide and not automatically embedding themselves in the post? I have never run across this issue before?

You used httpS:// for that one. Delete the s and it will work. Embedding in this forum works only with http://.

 

<-- Does not work

 

Works

 

Ah thanks man, I read your post incorrectly. I thought you posted the https must be used. Cheers.
