Temtem Swarm Achievements Guide
Temtem Swarm has a massive achievement list, but most of it follows clear patterns tied to survival runs, boss kills, techniques, and specific play conditions. You are not chasing random objectives here, you are repeating core runs while hitting different goals along the way.
A lot of these will unlock naturally, but some require very specific setups like fast boss kills or not evolving certain Tems.
Full Achievement Breakdown And What They Mean
The list looks huge, but it breaks down into a few main categories you will keep seeing over and over.
Temtem Swarm achievements are mainly tied to survival time, beating bosses, using upgraded techniques, capturing Tems, and completing runs with specific conditions.
Survival And Map Progress Achievements
These are your baseline achievements and you will unlock a lot of them just by staying alive longer and pushing runs further.
Each map has the same structure, survive 20 minutes and clear at least 7 Spots in one run.
Cipanku survivor, survive 20 minutes in Cipanku
A stroll on the beach, survive 20 minutes in Deniz
A walk in the woods, survive 20 minutes in Arbury
Giving luck a try, survive 20 minutes in Saipark
Saunter among the crystals, survive 20 minutes in Tucma
Promenade over the bridges, survive 20 minutes in Omninesia
Trek across the desert, survive 20 minutes in Kisiwa
Voyage into the Pansun, survive 20 minutes in The Pansun
And the matching Spot clear achievements:
Cipanku tourist, beat 7 Spots in Cipanku
Deniz tourist, beat 7 Spots in Deniz
Arbury tourist, beat 7 Spots in Arbury
Born under a lucky star, beat 7 Spots in Saipark
Tucma tourist, beat 7 Spots in Tucma
Omninesia tourist, beat 7 Spots in Omninesia
Kisiwa tourist, beat 7 Spots in Kisiwa
Pansun tourist, beat 7 Spots in The Pansun
If you are doing full runs instead of short attempts, these stack quickly.
Boss Kill And Speed Kill Achievements
Every boss has two versions, just beat them, and beat them fast.
You will naturally unlock the normal clears, but the under 1 minute kills require strong builds early.
Conqueror of lightning, defeat Nessla
Faster than lightning, defeat Nessla in under 1 minute
Conqueror of the waves, defeat Oceara
Fast surfer, defeat Oceara in under 1 minute
Firefighter, defeat Aohi
Blew off the candle, defeat Aohi in under 1 minute

No toxicity allowed, defeat Gharunder in under 1 minute

Fragile fossil, defeat Tyranak in under 1 minute
The snow king, defeated, defeat Yowlar
Defrosted and defeated, defeat Yowlar in under 60 seconds
Overruled, defeat Galios
Dethroning God, defeat Galios in under 1 minute
The Divine Dragon falls, defeat Volgon
Rider of a stubborn dragon, defeat Volgon in under 60 seconds
You will need high damage builds to hit those time thresholds.
Technique And Build Achievements
A huge chunk of the list comes from using upgraded techniques or building specific loadouts.
These trigger when you use the upgraded version of a move or build around certain types.
Examples include:
Sharp whirlpool, use Water Blade +
Safe ground, use Ki Field +
Greased lightning, use DC Beam +
Thunderous, use Thunder Strike +
The floor is crystal, use Crystal Spikes +
Pillars of rain, use Water Cannon +
Toxic to the core, use Pollution +
Raining fire and brimstone, use Fire Tornado +
Lashing gales, use Wind Blade +
Flowing protection, use Fluid Barrier +
System overload, use Data Burst +
There are a lot of these, and you will unlock most just by experimenting with builds across runs.
Capture And Hidden Achievements
These are tied to catching specific Tems or doing special run conditions.
Heart hacker, capture Oree
It is electrifying, capture Innki
Bacon, capture Pigepic
Big thinker, capture Houchic
Harness the crystal, capture Crystle
Caged bird, capture Zephyruff
Heart of flame, capture Raiber
One with nature, capture Kinu
Then you have challenge runs:
Thinking small, win without evolving Houchic
The power of the bit, win without evolving Oree
The aspiring duckling, win without evolving Platypet
Defensive smolness, win without evolving Crystle
Monke flip, win without evolving Smazee
These require you to play differently instead of just building power.
Late Game And Mastery Achievements
These are the longest term goals and require unlocking full technique sets or specific build setups.
Crystal Master, unlock all Crystal techniques
Digital Master, unlock all Digital techniques
Earth Master, unlock all Earth techniques
Electric Master, unlock all Electric techniques
Fire Master, unlock all Fire techniques
Melee Master, unlock all Melee techniques
Mental Master, unlock all Mental techniques
Nature Master, unlock all Nature techniques
Neutral Master, unlock all Neutral techniques
Toxic Master, unlock all Toxic techniques
Water Master, unlock all Water techniques
Wind Master, unlock all Wind techniques
These take time and multiple runs to complete.
Final Blurb
Temtem Swarm achievements look overwhelming at first, but they all loop back into the same core gameplay, survive longer, build stronger, and try different setups. Once you start chaining runs with purpose, the list clears itself out faster than it looks.
