In PEAK, escaping the island is just the beginning, once you’ve made it to the top, it’s time to tackle all the achievements, some of which are a bit unconventional. While a few unlock naturally, like collecting badges for climbing the highest points in each of the four regions—others require more time and strategy. This guide will walk you through each achievement and show you exactly what you need to do to unlock them all.

Note: To get the most out of PEAK, it’s best to finish the game on the default difficulty first. Once you’re ready to go for all achievements, switch to Tenderfoot mode—it’s more forgiving, with no time limits, slower hunger, and better stamina. Since the map resets every 24 hours, tough routes might become easier the next day, so don’t hesitate to try again later if you’re stuck.
