View all Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon

Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon has 60 total achievements tied to exploration, crafting, choices, and a few questionable life decisions like punching a bear or wearing cursed jewelry off a cliff.

Some of them come naturally as you play, whereas others need you to go out of your way or just fully lose your mind for a minute.

Here’s a breakdown of how the achievements work, which ones are easy, and which ones you might want to avoid unless you’re going for 100%.

Main Storyline Achievements

These are earned by just playing the game normally and finishing the main questline.

The Once and Future King – Meet Arthur and claim the first shard
The Hollow Blade – Get Excalibur
The Shield of Avalon – Find Palamedes’ shield
Crown of Ashes – Take the crown once held by giants
King of Avalon – Finish the main story
Beyond the Veil – Help Arthur ascend
Shadow of the Giants – Decide what happens to the Forlorn Swords

These are guaranteed if you stick with the main quest and follow it to the end.

Hit these level markers and you’ll pick these up naturally.

The Journey Begins – Reach level 5

Forged in the Wyrdness – Reach level 35

Master Chef – Cook 50 dishes
Brew It Yourself – Brew 25 potions
Soft Underbelly – Hit enemy weakspots 100 times

A few of these need specific quests or exploration triggers.

Several of these involve long questlines with different endings. Expect some overlap.

Just Plain Weird or Fun Ones

These are either odd, missable, or completely ridiculous. Worth doing for the laugh.

Bear Handed – Kill a bear with your fists
Pet a Croakmaw – Yes, really

The Oracle’s Cluck – Complete all three Muriel the chicken encounters
Yours Forever – Romance someone

These are where things get creative. Some are tied to hidden content or specific builds, so don’t expect to get all of them without looking around.

Money, Homes, and Loot

A few are based on wealth and item collection.

The One Percent – Have 10,000 gold
Home Sweet Home – Buy a property
Keyless Entry Specialist – Pick 50 locks

Easy if you loot a lot and build for thievery or gold gain.

Final Blurb & FAQ

Most of the achievements in Tainted Grail are designed to reward curiosity, exploration, and occasionally being dumb on purpose.

If you want the full 1,000 Gamerscore, it’ll take a full playthrough, plus some specific builds and quest outcomes. But a big chunk will unlock just by playing thoroughly and trying new paths each time.
