Superliminal
Achievement guide · roadmap · tracker
Superliminal is a first-person puzzle game built on forced perspective: pick up an object and its real size depends on how big it looks, so a tiny block held close becomes a giant ramp when you drop it. You wander a dreamlike therapy-programme testing facility solving increasingly surreal spatial puzzles. About 2-4 hours.
Wake Up (beat the game) is the only true story achievement; everything else is optional. There's a running fire-alarm-and-extinguisher gag, a clutch of environmental one-offs (drop a soda into the right bin, put an apple on your head), and the collectible hunts - the hidden chess pieces (Chess Master, feeding the Kasparov Deep Blue puzzle), the blueprints (Feeling Blue - the "blue" is a pun, it's blueprints not chess), and the constellations (Stars Align). The speed runs (under an hour, under 30 minutes) and Challenge Mode round it out, plus a few Workshop-related ones. Level select means the level-specific ones are recoverable.
