The Plant Shop Achievement Helper

The chart ranks every achievement by the share of Steam players who have it. Four of the nine sit above 40%: Good Ending, Plants are Life, Bad Ending and I Hate You., Plants are Life among them. The other five are held by fewer than a third of players, and that is where the work is if you want the full set.

The rarest achievements

• Plant Lover, 13.7%: craft 100 plants.
• Secret EndingAn ending, 15.2%: the rarest of the three endings.
• OvercookedA food achievement, 16.7%: one of the two food jokes.
• Too CuriousA choice achievement, 21.0%: a Day 1 choice that is easy to miss.

These rates come from one snapshot, taken four days after launch. They move as more people finish the game, so we date each snapshot and re-check it.

Ending achievements

Good Ending (59.4%), Bad Ending (48.6%) and Secret Ending (15.2%)The three ending achievements (59.4%, 48.6% and 15.2%) each ask you to complete one ending. The store lists multiple endings as a feature, and these three achievements are the full list. What players report about reaching each one, including the Secret Endingrarest one, is on the endings tracker.

Story choice achievements you can miss

Save Liam (31.0%) and Too Curious (21.0%)Two achievements (31.0% and 21.0%) reward a choice, not an ending. Too Curious asks you to enter the backdoor on Day 1, so it has a short window: once Day 1 is over in a run, the condition can no longer be met in that run. Save Liam asks you to take Liam with you when escaping.What each choice asks of you is a light story spoiler. Peek to read it.Show

Because Too Curiousone of them is tied to a single day, it is the easiest achievement in the game to miss. A community guide walks through the Day 1 backdoor step by step. We have not tested it yet, so it carries a community badge rather than ours.

Crafting achievements: 50 and 100 plants

Plants are Life asks you to craft 50 plants (57.6%) and Plant Lover asks for 100 (13.7%). Crafting is the core of the shop: each order is a flower, plant or cactus made from a pot, soil, a seed and water, and the task list names the materials an order needs. Two of The Plant Shop achievements come from this loop alone.

The gap between the two rates is large: more than half of players reach 50 plants, but fewer than one in seven reach 100. Story mode ends when the story does. Relaxed mode lets you run the shop at your own pace, and Endless mode keeps orders coming until you fall behind, so those two modes look like the place to collect the extra plants. That is our reading of the official mode descriptions, not something we have timed.

Food achievements: I Hate You and Overcooked

Two achievements are jokes about food. I Hate You is held by 41.7% of players and Overcooked by 16.7%, which makes Overcooked the third rarest achievement in the game.One is held by 41.7% of players and the other by 16.7%, the third rarest achievement in the game. I Hate You asks you to order a pizza with pineapple. Overcooked asks you to cook a burger for too long.What each one asks for is shown when you peek.Show

How long a 100% run takes

One creator recorded a 100% run as two videos: about an hour for a playthrough that reaches the Good and Secret endings, and 1 hour 17 minutes for a second playthrough that reaches the Bad Ending.about an hour for a playthrough that reaches two endings, and 1 hour 17 minutes for a second playthrough that reaches the third. The developer's own estimate for the game is about two hours.

When an achievement does not unlock

If The Plant Shop achievements do not unlock for you, you are not the only one to report it. One player wrote on launch day that their achievements did not start unlocking until later in the game. It is a single report and the developer has not posted about it. The launch announcement asks players to report bugs in the Steam discussions, which is the most direct way to get it looked at.
