Introduction:
Welcome to Demon Hunter: Revelation, another point and click adventure game from Artifex Mundi. If this is somehow your first one, they are first person point and click games with a heavy emphasis on puzzles and hidden object scenes. As with all Artifex Mundi games, there are collectibles to hunt down, many miscellaneous achievements, and then a handful of story ones. Thankfully this game can be played on the easiest difficulty, and the miscellaneous achievements are all relatively simple ones. Let's get started.

Abbreviated Walkthrough:
As with all Artifex Mundi games, there are collectibles. There are also many points of no return, meaning most collectibles are easy to miss. As a result, I highly recommend keeping a collectible guide open while you play through the game (a great one can be found in Superior Collector (100G)). Every scene has at least one, and then some of the scenes have two. Because of this, every time you come to a new scene for the first time, you should make it a point to find all collectibles in the scene first before proceeding with the story.

Aside from the missable collectible achievements, there are a number of miscellaneous achievements that are also missable, so you should be aware of them and, ideally, take care of them as soon as possible so you don't have to worry about them for the remainder of your playthrough. Two are game-spanning:

Complete all minigames without skipping them (Genius (80G))
Complete all HOPs without using a hint (Observer (60G))

The rest of one-off achievements:

Complete three Hidden Object Puzzles (HOPs) without using a hint (Scanner Eyes (50G))
Complete an HOP with less than four mistakes (Unmistakable (20G))
Complete an HOP in under a minute (Roll Perception (20G))
Complete a minigame in under a minute (Time is Essential (30G))
Find 5 hidden objects within 5 seconds (Lucky Five (40G))
Finish 3 HOPs within 10 minutes (In time (30G))
Finish 3 minigames within 10 minutes without using Skip (No Pain, No Gain (30G))

The two game-spanning achievements just require you to not press

during minigames and HOPs. Refer to each if you need any tips. As for the one-off ones, you should be able to knock out all of those within the first 15 or so minutes of the game, allowing you to play through the rest of the game without worrying about missing any achievements (aside from collectibles). If there are any you aren't sure of or confident about, jump to their solutions to get a better idea of what to do in advance.

Aside from the collectible achievements and bunch of miscellaneous achievements above, all other achievements are story related. By the time you complete the main game, you should have all achievements. The bonus chapter is not required for any achievements.

Conclusion:
Demon Hunter doesn't add anything unique or interesting as far as gameplay, and ends up being pretty generic and forgettable. The minigames are quite easy in this one, and despite there seemingly being a lot of HOPs in this game, they tended to be quite easy as well..On top of that, thanks to some easier miscellaneous achievements, this is one of the easier and quicker Artifex Mundi games. Congrats on another quick (and hopefully enjoyable) completion!

Roll Perception

20
Complete a Hidden Object Puzzle in less than a minute.
*MISSABLE*

As the description says, you need to complete any HOP in under one minute. Because you're (presumably) playing on Casual difficulty, you have the ability to mash during all HOPs to find objects without any penalty. As a result, there is a pretty good chance you will unlock this naturally while using that method.

However, if you'd like to guarantee this achievement, you can actually use the exact same exploit described in Unmistakable (20G) - find all objects but don't click on the last one, force close the game app, relaunch it, and now that you know where all of the objects, you should be able to quickly click them all in under a minute.
Unmistakable

20
Finish any Hidden Object Puzzle with less than 4 mistakes.
*MISSABLE*

As the description says, you'll need to complete any HOP (only the ones with the names of the items or the shadows of the items count; the "find and use" ones don't count for this achievement) without making more than four mistakes. This achievement isn't anywhere near as difficult as it sounds. While you could do this the legitimate way (take your time to find every object, ensuring you don't make any mistakes), there is an exploit you can take advantage of to make this much easier.

When you reach an HOP, pause and quit to the main menu to save your game right before you start it. Now, play the HOP, making as many mistakes as you want, until you find all but one objects, making a note of where every object is. Locate the final object but don't click on it. Instead, press the guide button and force close the game app (do NOT quit to the main menu, as this will save your game). Relaunch the game app, continue your game, and you'll be back at your save before you started the HOP. Now that you know where all of the objects are, carefully go through the HOP to find them all,easily doing it without making any mistakes. If you do make too many mistakes, you can always repeat the process of force closing the game app to try again.
Jack of all Trades

20
Complete a Hidden Object Puzzle without using a Hint.
*MISSABLE*

Refer to Observer (60G) for more information.
In time

30
Finish 3 Hidden Object Puzzle in less than 10 minutes.
*MISSABLE*

The wording here is a bit odd - what you need to do is complete three HOPs whose total completion times add up to under 10 minutes. For example, three HOPs that take you three minutes each will total nine minutes and unlock this achievement.

There is no way to track your times (although this achievement does track), but if you use the mash method to find objects, you're very unlikely to take more than two or three minutes per HOP. There are plenty of HOPs (close to 15) in the game that can be plowed through quickly using this method, especially the ones where you need to find a set amount of a certain item, since these aren't randomized.
No Pain, No Gain

30
Finish 3 Minigames under 10 minutes without using Skip.
*MISSABLE*

Similar to In time (30G), you need to finish three minigames whose cumulative completion times add up to less than 10 minutes. Just like with that achievement, there's no way to track your times (although this achievement does track). Thankfully there are a ton of very quick and easy minigames that will assuredly only take you one or two minutes to completion. However, if you doubt your abilities or just want to guarantee this achievement, the walkthrough in Save the Dame (40G) contains the solutions to all minigames, allowing you to complete them all very quickly.
Observer

60
Finish all the Hidden Object Puzzles without a Hint.
*MISSABLE*

As the descriptions says, you'll need to complete all HOPs in the game without using a hint (i.e. without pressing ). Because you can (and should be) play on Casual difficulty, there is no penalty for mashing during HOPs to find objects. As a result, you likely won't ever need to use hints since you can just mash around each scene until you find every object.
Ignore the Hint

30
Finish 3 Hidden Object Puzzles without using a hint.
*MISSABLE*

Refer to Observer (60G) for more information.
Third Time's the charm

30
Find 3 Hidden Objects within 3 seconds.
*MISSABLE*

Refer to Lucky Five (40G) for more information.
Lucky Five

40
Find 5 Hidden Objects in five seconds.
*MISSABLE*

While the achievement Third Time's the charm (30G) is virtually unavoidable while playing normally, assuming you mash during HOPs on Casual difficulty to find objects, it's very difficult to get this achievement that way unless you get very lucky. For this achievement, you're pretty much going to have to use one of these methods:
- Actually find five different objects but don't click on any. Once you've identified five, quickly go around and click on all five in a row.
- Using the exploit in Roll Perception (20G), to find all objects, essentially do the same as above and click on five you're sure of as fast as possible.
Rock the Boat

40
Complete 5 Minigames without skipping them.
*MISSABLE*

Refer to Genius (80G) for more information.
Genius

80
Finish all the Minigames without skipping them.
*MISSABLE*

As the description says, you need to complete every minigame in the game without ever pressing to skip them. The majority of minigames in this game are very short and easy, but there are a couple that might give you issues. If you ever get stuck, refer to the walkthrough found in Save the Dame (40G). It contains the solutions to every minigame in the game.
Knowledge is Power

60
Finish all Story Minigames without using Skip.
*MISSABLE*

The Story Minigames are the five minigames you play after putting the eyes in the gargoyles.

Refer to Genius (80G) for more information.
Time is Essential

30
Complete a Minigame in less than a minute.
*MISSABLE*

As the description says, you need to complete any minigame in under a minute. This game is chock full of minigames, and the vast majority of them are very fast and easy. You will likely unlock this achievement on one of your first minigames. If, however, you aren't confident in your abilities, the walkthrough in Save the Dame (40G) shows the solutions to all minigames. You can always check the solution there beforehand, allowing you to complete a minigame very quickly.
Superior Collector

100
Gather all Collectibles.
*MISSABLE*

There are a total of 15 coins, 15 portraits, and 15 dolls. The portraits are scrolls rolled up. There are a total of 40 scenes in the game, but surprisingly, two scenes don't have collectibles. The rest all have at least one, and some have two.

The best way to handle collectibles is to keep a guide open the entire time. Because there are many points of no return, I highly recommend that every time you come to a new scene, you find the collectible(s) immediately before progressing. There is a great collectible guide HERE, complete with screenshots, courtesy of some Steam users. Keep it open while you play to ensure you don't miss any.
Mechanic

30
Complete the Elevator Minigame without skip.
*MISSABLE*

Refer to Genius (80G) for more information.
Good Samaritan

40
Help the village woman open the gate.
Story-related; cannot be missed.

Refer to Save the Dame (40G) for more information.
Hidden Past

40
Discover the truth behind Your red eyes.
Story-related; cannot be missed.

Refer to Save the Dame (40G) for more information.
Fight the Dark

40
Defeat the Masked Woman.
Story-related; cannot be missed.

Refer to Save the Dame (40G) for more information.

NOTE that a little over halfway through the story you will fight and defeat the Masked Woman, and even be told "Objective Complete: Defeat the Masked Woman." However, this achievement does NOT unlock there. Near the end of the story you'll fight her again, and that's when this achievement unlocks, so don't be alarmed thinking that the achievement glitched.
Demon Hunter

40
Defeat Malezur.
Story-related; cannot be missed.

Refer to Save the Dame (40G) for more information.
Save the Dame

40
Save Lila Martin.
Story-related; cannot be missed.

This achievement (and Demon Hunter (40G)) both unlock upon completing the game. In terms of progressing, this game is quite easy to do so. For one, there is no penalty (neither in game nor voiding achievements) for using hints to see where to go and what to do next. You can also unlock all achievements on Casual difficulty, meaning there is no penalty during HOPs for mashing to find all items.

Therefore, the only possible stumbling block to progression is minigames. There are a ton in this game, but almost all of them are very short and easy. If, however, you ever get stuck anywhere and prefer to use a guide, refer to THIS LINK, which has a great guide courtesy of Big Fish Games, complete with screenshots.
