21 achievements Guide 100%

Undertale's achievement list is one of the gentlest 100%s on Steam - a single blind playthrough plus a short side-grind gets you everything, and none of it hangs on reaching a specific ending. Ten of the 21 are pure story markers that pop automatically as you walk into each named area (the Ruins, Snowdin, Waterfall, Hotland, the CORE), so you literally can't finish the game without them.

The other eleven all live in the Dog Shrine - the little bonus room reached through the sink in Papyrus's kitchen in Snowdin. Seven are "Dognation" donation tiers (a running total of 10 / 25 / 50 / 100 / 200 / 350 / 500 coins) and four are lining up symbols on the shrine's slot machine (three cherries, three bones, three ghosts, and "D O G"). Farm coins on the slot machine itself, then dump up to 500 in one go to pop every donation tier at once.

The one thing that can lock you out: you must have SPARED Papyrus to reach his kitchen. Kill him and the four slot-machine achievements are off the table for that run (the donation box has a Genocide-route fallback in the Waterfall dump, but the slots don't). So - spare Papyrus, enjoy a ~6-8 hour run, then spend 15-30 minutes at the shrine. :)
