Introduction:
Welcome to Demon Hunter: Riddles of Light, 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 Nut's Little Helper (60G)). 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. One is game-spanning:
during minigames. Refer to it if you need any tips. One important thing to note here is that there is no achievement for completing all HOPs without using a hint, only three of them. Therefore, as soon as you unlock All-seeing Eye of Ra (40G), you can feel free to use hints during HOPs as much as you want. 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, although its Egyptian setting is a nice change of pace from all of the modern ones lately. 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!

[XBA would like to thank Necrophage33 for this Roadmap]
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.
