Achievement Guide

Action Mode

Get to level 9 in action mode

No easy way around this. Here are some tips:

- Do not use hints, as you will lose a significant chunk off your scoring bar at the bottom

- Speed counts. If you have a fast eye and fast fingers, you will score big.

- Set yourself up. If you can make hyper gems and power gems and refrain from using them until you are stuck, do so.

- You cannot run out of moves. The game will drop combos into the level if you are low on moves so check near the top for quick moves.

- Once you hit level 5, make as many single moves as you can but ALWAYS keep your eye out for combos. Single moves will barely do anything to the scoring bar.

 

Cascade 8

Get a x8 cascade during any game mode

This is purely luck, but your best chance to receive a x8 cascade is in the earlier levels. Try making combos near the bottom. Like I said, its purely luck and if you play enough, I'm sure you'll come across this one.

 

Classic Mode

Get to level 18 in classic mode

This requires a lot of practice. There is no time limit but you can get a game over if you have no more moves. Save your hyper gems and power gems for later levels. Once you reach level 18 you get this achievement.

 

Cognito Mode

Get 50,000 in Cognito Mode

To get the achivement for Cognito Mode first complete Puzzle mode completely. Then play Cognito mode - if you get stuck do not use the hint button because it will not give you any points for that level. Instead, quit the game (it will save your score and your level) and go back into puzzle mode. Press start and go the the level select screen and find the puzzle that looks like the one you are stuck on in Cognito (All the puzzles for Cognito and Puzzle are the same, they are just in a different order). Go into the right puzzle and use the hint button as many times as you need until you memorize the right order. Then go back to your game in Cognito and complete the level.

Or you can refer to this guide at gamefaqs -- IT HELPS!!

Endless Mode

Complete level 280 in endless mode

You are going to need a lot of time for this. You cannot run out of moves because the game will automatically start throwing "possible" moves in on the top when you start running low. The best part is, you can save your game, so it doesnt have to be in one sitting. If you're stuck don't bother using the hint button, for this will make your score bar go down, just wait the 15 seconds and it gives you a tip for free.

 

Finity Mode

Get to level 9 in finity mode

Finity Mode bears some resemblance to Action mode, in that you have a timer bar to worry about, and in addition to normal gems dropping in you can also get rocks, bombs, and even power gems. Get to level 9 to get this achievement.

 

 

Hyper Mode

Get to level 9 in hyper mode

Hyper Mode is a faster version of Action Mode with a slower timer. Get to level 9 to achieve.

 

 

Hyper1000

Make 1,000 hyper gems across all your games

If you play this on a reqular basis there is no reason why you won't get this eventually. If you are going for the Endless mode achievement, it helps towards the count a lot. You'll probably receive this achievement when you least expect it.

 

Multi Mode

Unlock Twilight, Hyper, Cognito, and Finity mode.

Meet the requirements to unlock the 4 mystery modes. 1 mystery mode is unlocked with each of the classic mode scenarios.

Finity Mode -- Complete 280 levels of Endless Mode

Hyper Mode -- Complete 8 levels of Action Mode

Twilight Mode -- Complete 17 levels of Classic Mode

Cognito Mode -- Complete Puzzle Mode

 

 

Power10000

Make 10,000 power gems across all your games

If you play this on a reqular basis there is no reason why you won't get this eventually. If you are going for the Endless mode achievement, it helps towards the count a lot. You'll probably receive this achievement when you least expect it.

 

Puzzle Mode

Complete all 80 levels in puzzle mode

This is pretty simple because you CAN use the hint button. You can try and get this legit but the quickest way is to just use the hint button repeatedly.

 

 

Twilight Mode

Complete level 10 in twilight mode

You get Twilight upon completing 17 levels of classic mode. This achievement is a little easier to get than the Classic Mode one, so if you were good at classic mode, you will no doubt be able to get this.

Might I add that if you want to check how many Power and Hyper gems you have created. Just go to the Leaderboards at the Main Menu and you will see at the bottom all these statistics based on your progress. Power and Hyper Gems are among those.
Do you have to be playing while connected to Live for it to be correct, or can you play offline then play online once and have it show an accurate count?

 

EDIT: That probably sounds confusing.

 

I mean to say: Will it only show the Power and Hyper gems that you have earned while connected to Live?

Endless Mode would probably be the hardest because it takes so long. It isn't difficult like get-to-level-100-on-Robotron difficult, just incredibly time-consuming.

 

Puzzle Mode was probably the easiest for me, either that or Power10000. (It's much easier to create power gems without really trying than to create hyper gems.)

Very nice guide, good hints and tips, didn't know that you always get moves in action mode, so will have to go home and try this one again =)

 

. Anybody knows the answer to the question about showing the amount of special gems, only the ones when you were connected to LIVe or all?

 

How many have actually finished endless mode? It really feels endless to me =P
