Forgotten Anne
Easiest Xbox One Achievements of 2018 So Far
As an achievement hunter, you occasionally have to play some less than stellar games that you’ve never heard of to earn some easy Gamerscore, but every now and again, you discover something really interesting that you may never have found otherwise. Forgotten Anne is that type of game. It’s a puzzle/platformer with a heavy emphasis on its story and its curious cast of characters.
The Gamerscore that you earn from each achievement has some unusually atypical values, but that luckily shouldn’t be a problem because its so easy to earn the full 1000. Almost all of the achievements will come automatically while playing through the story. Those last few are earned by finding all of the collectibles, which you can easily do on your first playthrough if you don’t mind using a guide.
Minit
Easiest Xbox One Achievements of 2018 So Far
Minit is a charming little game. Each session only lasts a minute (hence the title). In that time, you have to help out NPCs, defeat foes, and explore the world. That seems like a lot to do in so little time, but despite how fast-paced it is, it never gets too overwhelming. Since it’s such a short game, it won’t take you too long to grab all of the achievements.
If you’re just in it for the Gamerscore, you’ll be able to bust out Minit’s 1000 in no time. Some of the 27 achievements require you to fulfill specific requirements, which won’t be a problem at all if you’re using a guide. It’s a quick and simple game that you’ll likely have some fun with.
Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice
Easiest Xbox One Achievements of 2018 So Far
Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice released back in August 2017 for PS4 and received very positive reviews. Earlier in April, the stellar action/adventure game finally released on Xbox One, enhanced for the Xbox One X, no less. The Xbox One X is the only console that will produce visuals of up to 2160p for Hellblade. For a game that already looked gorgeous at 1080p, it’s truly a sight to behold.
If none of that makes you want to pick up Hellblade, how about the fact that it’s got 14 easy achievements worth 1000 Gamerscore? Hellblade’s achievement list is an incredibly standard one. 13 of the achievements will come from simply completing the story, and that one other achievement can be earned by collecting the game’s Lorestone collectibles. With a guide, the full 1000 Gamerscore can easily be earned in a single playthrough.
Telltale’s Batman: The Enemy Within
Easiest Xbox One Achievements of 2018 So Far
How many Telltale games are there now? I’m sure achievement hunters know the answer to that one as the Telltale games have some of the easiest achievement lists going. All you have to do in almost all of the Telltale games on Xbox One is simply complete the story to earn every achievement. It’s that simple. Of course, that’s no different with Batman: The Enemy Within. In this game, along with that tasty 1000 Gamerscore, you can also enjoy some of your favorite Batman heroes and villains getting up to their crazy antics, including Catwoman, Riddler, Bane, Mr. Freeze, and Harley Quinn.
A Way Out
Easiest Xbox One Achievements of 2018 So Far
A Way Out is a somewhat unique co-op game. Its emphasis isn’t on gunning down thousands of militants, zombies, or anything like that; it’s more of a slower-paced story-driven game that you get to experience with a friend. You play as prisoners Leo and Vincent as they attempt to break out of prison and settle a few things on the outside.
If you’re just playing through the game casually, you’ll likely miss many of the game’s achievements. That’s not because they’re hard, but because many of them are for performing certain miscellaneous actions. Just grab a guide —alongside a friend or family member to play with, of course— and you’ll be able to easily grab the full 1000 Gamerscore in as little as six hours.
InnerSpace
Easiest Xbox One Achievements of 2018 So Far
InnerSpace is an exploration game in which the exploring is done from the skies. Your job is to fly around and solve the mysteries of the Inverse, a place where the planets’ gravity pulls you outward rather than inward. It’s an easy-going and calm experience with a nice visual style and some easy achievements, to boot.
Don’t worry too much about the achievements on your first playthrough. The game only takes a few hours to beat, so just relax and enjoy the story, and you’ll be treated with around half of the game’s achievements anyway. After that, you’re able to return to InnerSpace’s world and freely clean up any achievements that you still have left, which will likely be ones pertaining to the game’s collectibles or other objectives. All in all, it won’t take to long to nab this game’s 1000 Gamerscore.
