Introduction:
“Adios is a cinematic first-person game about sticking to a complicated decision.

You're a pig farmer in Kansas. It's October. Cold, crisp mornings are the norm, and you have decided that you're no longer okay with letting the mob use your pigs to dispose of bodies. When your old friend - a hitman - arrives with his assistant to deliver another body, you finally screw up the courage to tell them that you're done.

Your friend doesn't want you to stop. He knows that there's no such thing as quitting, so he'll try to convince you that you're making a mistake. You spend the day together, doing chores and exploring the nooks and crannies of an authentic environment in the American Midwest alongside the man who will be forced to kill you, if he can't convince you to stay.

How you respond will determine the rest of your life. Adios means goodbye.” - xbox.com

Adios is a story-driven narrative. You are a retired hitman who bought a farm and are visited by a former colleague who is trying to get you to unretire. Throughout the game, you will talk about your former life while performing daily tasks around your farm. You will complete such things as milking a goat, feeding a horse and transporting manure. All in a day’s work!

The controls are simple; moves, pushing in sprints, skips through the dialogue, or picks up and throws objects and uses or places objects. To make the game play as fast as possible, sprint everywhere you can and skip through all the dialogue with the exception to the scene “The Goat” as the achievement may glitch.

To keep track of your daily tasks, they are tracked in your journal which is accessed by pressing . You need to complete everything in order to advance the story, and eventually you are given a second set of tasks to complete before getting to the finale.

Abbreviated Walkthrough:
The game requires only one playthrough. While about half of the achievements are technically missable, none have been labeled as such since there is a scene select after you complete the game. However, if you are following this guide, none should be missed.

The guide below is written in walkthrough format, so each solution tells you the last achievement that you should have unlocked and the next achievement that you should unlock. To follow along with the guide, click on the achievement reference labeled ‘next achievement you will unlock…’ in each solution. The achievements should be unlocked in this order:

Butcher (50G)
Piano Man (30G)
Vinyl Vibes (20G)
Magnetic Miracles (20G)
Audiophile (50G)
Tape Head (50G)
Bottoms Up (20G)

Mop Up:
If for some reason you missed an achievement or two, there is a scene select option on the main menu after you complete the game. Use this to earn anything you may have missed.

Conclusion:
While this is a generally simple and relaxing game to play, Adios has a decent story but is mostly forgettable. There is no replay value and, let’s be honest, is really only good to boost your gamerscore. And at its current price point, it’s best to wait for a sale if you feel you have to play it.

*START HERE*

When the game opens, you are sitting on your porch and see a white van pull up. Press to open your journal then again to close it, then to move.

Scene - “The Confession”

Standing there talking to the man, press to skip through the dialogue. When presented with a choice, instead of selecting a reply, walk over to the back of the van and you will see 10-15 packages of meat. To unlock this, we need to throw all the packages into the pig pen. Pick one up with and walk to the edge of the pen. Aim above the group of pigs and press to throw the package. Repeat until all of the packages have been thrown into the pen. Once all the meat is eaten, the achievement will unlock.

Scene - “The Shovel”

From Right On Target (50G), exit the goatshed and walk forward a short distance to the next waypoint. For these next three achievements, the task is to fill the wheelbarrow with manure, but you need to do varying degrees of the work. It takes 10 shovels of manure to fill the wheelbarrow, so as you’re scrolling through the dialogue, you can start one of three ways; have the man do all the work (Lazy Bones (20G)), you and the man shovel exactly five times each (this achievement), and you shovel more than five times (Hard Worker (20G)). As a result, you will need to play this scene a total of three times.

Whichever one you choose to do first, the words ‘Finish filling the wheelbarrow’ will appear at the top left of the screen. When the wheelbarrow is full, the words change to ‘Push the wheelbarrow’. Focus on the wheelbarrow and press to start pushing it. One of the three achievements should unlock after a few steps.

Press , select ‘Restart Scene’, and change up how the wheelbarrow is filled (by doing something different than the previous way). Again, when the wheelbarrow is full, push it a few steps to unlock that achievement. Restart the scene and repeat a third time for the final manure achievement.

To complete the ‘Move the manure’ objective in your journal, after the third manure achievement unlocks, keep pushing the wheelbarrow to the garden on the left side of the house (between the house and the small shed with the soda machine). Once you reach the garden beds, there will be another conversation indicating that the objective is complete.

Press to open your journal and you will see that there is one remaining objective; feed the horse. Although there is no achievement for it, we need to complete it to advance the story. There is one final waypoint at the back of the house (same side of the fence as the horseshoe pit), so walk through the gate and turn right towards the horse pen. You will see a bucket of apples on the ground and a horse walking towards you, starting the scene called “The Horse”. When the horse reaches the fence, press to pet it, then take an apple and feed it to them, completing this objective.

The next achievement you will unlock is Mechanic (50G).

Win at horseshoes.
Scene - “The Horseshoes”

From A Man of Taste (50G), exit the small shed and you will see a waypoint close by to your left. Walk along the fence, past the waypoint, to a gate, then go through the gate and head back to the waypoint which is a horseshoe pit. There are two stacks of horseshoes on a stool next to the pit (yours is the stool on the right). The object of this is to throw the horseshoes and have them land closest to the pin.

Run through the dialogue with and then pick up a horseshoe with . Standing at the edge of the pit and slightly to the right, aim just above the fence in front of you and slightly to the left of the pin. Hold to situate your aim then release it to throw the horseshoe. Chances are that most of your horseshoes will land closer to the pin than his which will give you a greater score. You need to try and earn at least 4500-4800 points as he will get around 4000. If you win, the achievement will unlock. If not, you can always retry this scene after you complete the game.

When it’s done, approach the soda vending machine and press on the ‘Root Bear’ button (top right). This will dispense a can at the bottom of the machine. Press to pick it up.

For this achievement, you need to toss a can at the man and he needs to catch it. Turn towards him and aim at his right shoulder (or slightly above). Press to toss it and if he catches it, the achievement will unlock. If not, try again.

The next achievement you will unlock is A Man of Taste (50G).

The next achievement you will unlock is Sniper (50G).
Right On Target

Note: For the dialogue in this scene, do not spam to run through it as this achievement has been known to be glitchy. It’s best to let the dialogue play out naturally.

Scene - “The Goat”

From Sniper (50G), leave the horseshoe pit and walk back through the gate (ignoring the closer waypoint to your left for now). You will see two waypoints in front of you on the other side of the house, and for this achievement, we’ll be heading for the left one.

Walk around the house and through the next gate next to the blue pickup truck. Cross the road and walk to the goatshed on the left, then open the door to start the scene.

When the conversation reaches a point where you are talking about milking the goats, sit on the stool and two goats will walk in. Once the process starts, eventually the words ‘Shoot him’ will appear at the top left of the screen, indicating that you need to squirt milk at the man. Quickly place the reticule on his head (or just slightly above it) and press . When the words appear again, press a second time. Finish the conversation and when you both stand up, the achievement should unlock. If it doesn’t, you can always retry this scene after you complete the game.

Start the car.
From Fair's Fair (20G), the game will transition to another scene called “The Tree”. This is just a dialogue scene, so either read everything or keep pressing to skip through it (when you can). When the scene is over, it will transition into the garage and start another scene called “The Way”.

The scene will start with dialogue, so skip it or read it. When that’s done, the words ‘Pop the hood from the driver side door’ will appear at the top left of the screen. Focus on the driver’s side car door and press when indicated to pop the hood. Next, the words will change to ‘Attach the drop light to the hood’, so turn to your right and press to pick up the light. Turn back to the hood and place the light at the front of the hood. Read or skip the dialogue and when presented with a choice, press for ‘Sure’. Focus on the driver’s side door again and press to start the car which will unlock this achievement. If it doesn’t, you can always retry this scene after you complete the game. Read or skip the dialogue until the scene ends.

For this achievement, we want to skip through the dialogue with as fast as possible. When presented with a choice, press for ‘I’ll go first’. If you exhaust all the dialogue before the man has a chance to load the clay pigeons, you will not need to shoot anything and the scene will end, unlocking this achievement. If, however, you are not fast enough, you will need to shoot a couple of clay pigeons, just make sure you hold to aim and don’t miss.

From Nothing Left to Say (20G), before we unlock this achievement, there are a few tasks we need to do. First, while still in front of the phone, press on the Edith post-it note and run through the dialogue, selecting any choices you want. When that’s done, leave the kitchen and head out through the back door of the house to return to the horse pen to check on the horse. Approach the horse and when the words ‘Feed the apple to the horse’ appears at the top left of the screen, pick up an apple with and feed it to the horse. Press to open your journal and you will see that there is only one more objective left to check off; catch the fish.

Scene - “The Admiral”

From the horse pen, follow the waypoint back to the house, re-enter it and go into the cellar. Walk up to the opposite wall and press on the fishing rod to take it and the scene will start.

When it starts, walk to the edge of the pier and press to cast your line. Wait for a splash in the water (indicating you caught a fish) and hold to reel it in. There is a line tension meter on the right side of the screen, so don’t let it fill up or else you will lose the fish; hold and release appropriately so that doesn’t happen. Catching the Admiral is trial and error; you might get it on your first attempt or fifth attempt. When you finally do, put it in the cooler, the scene will end, and the achievement will unlock.
