25 achievements Guide 91%

Manifold Garden is a serene first-person puzzle game built on impossible, Escher-like geometry: walk off any edge and you loop back from the other side, and you can rotate gravity to turn walls into floors. You solve spatial puzzles by shifting which way is down, growing gravity-bending trees and channelling water through a world that folds in on itself. About 5-8 hours.

Most achievements come naturally as you complete each coloured level (blue, red, green, yellow, purple, orange, then the final rainbow) and touch the game's mechanics for the first time. Almost nothing is missable except Honey I Shrunk Myself - a hidden "shrink into a model" room that only works once you've placed the final rainbow cube, so grab it before you enter the ending. The one real challenge is The Game is Not Enough: reach the ending without ever placing a God Cube, which needs secret shortcut paths and effectively a guide (it also hands you Homecoming along the way).

Honey, I Shrunk Myself

ObjectiveMissable

Shrink Down Into a Small Model of a Level

In a "map room" (a repeating room with a scale model of each level at its centre), interact with a level model to shrink into it. The map rooms only work after ALL levels are done (the final rainbow cube placed), so backtrack and do this BEFORE entering the ending or it's lost.

The Game is Not Enough

The Game is Not Enough

ObjectiveOptional

Complete the Game Without Placing a Single God Cube

Reach the ending without ever PLACING a God Cube (carrying and picking them up is fine). Needs the game's hidden secret paths / level-skips - effectively a guide job. It also grants Homecoming along the way.
