Final Blurb

Vending Machine Co. spreads its achievement list across nearly every mechanic in the game, so full completion is less about one hard challenge and more about covering every system completely. Business growth, partnerships, upgrades, conversations, events, minigames, fishing, truck parts, and collectibles all connect to the full 141 achievement list, so the cleanest path is tracking each category separately instead of trying to remember everything at once.
