Bramble: The Mountain King 100% guide

Near the edge where you entered the area is a tiny goal made from sticks. Push one of the loose apples through it.

Goal! unlocks when the apple crosses through the goal.

Continue along the required route until you enter the treehouse.

Inside the treehouse, inspect and collect the wooden figurine before taking the key and leaving.

Lillemor Figurine unlocks when the figurine is collected.

The Xbox requirement is five mushroom jumps.

Bounce repeatedly across the large mushrooms at the start of the chapter. Alternate between them and keep making clear bounce landings until the achievement unlocks rather than repeatedly hopping in place on one mushroom.

Continue into the gnome village.

At the central house, inspect the small bench to the right and collect the figurine.

Gnome Figurine unlocks on collection.

Progress to the butcher encounter.

Avoid the cleaver attacks and jump when the butcher slams his fist into the surface. When the attack causes pieces of goo to fall, grab one and throw it into his face.

Repeat through all three phases.

Butcher unlocks when the boss is defeated.

Soon afterward you gather eight gnomes and need their help to continue. Once the bear-trap path begins, slow down.

Required: all eight gnomes must survive the trap path.

Before entering the traps, make sure all eight are with you. Keep close to the left side where practical, move only a short distance at a time, and stop after dangerous traps so the group can bunch up again. Take wide turns around hazards rather than cutting close to them.

If a gnome appears to lag behind, wait before assuming it has been lost. Some can take time to regroup.

If a gnome actually dies, restart the checkpoint and repeat the section.

Savior unlocks when the gnome-house sequence completes with all eight alive.

Continue through the troll chase until you drop into the pinecone cave.

Your landing stuns one pinecone figure while the others flee.

Keep walking into the stunned pinecone to push it across the cave and force it through the opening on the far side. Do this before leaving the cave.

Evicted unlocks when the pinecone is pushed out.

Continue until the route reaches the area filled with animal remains and water.

A gnome is trapped inside a cage above the creature below.

Reach the cage and interact with it to send the caged gnome down as bait.

Bait unlocks when the sacrifice is completed.

Immediately after escaping this section, do not climb away yet.

Use the nearby cage to climb onto the ledge. Check the area directly below the squirrel and collect the figurine.

Troll Figurine unlocks on collection.

Dismount on the small island containing the tree stump.

Go around the stump to the pile of stones and collect the figurine hidden there.

Näcken Figurine unlocks on collection.

Later, a small gnome rides on Olle's head as you cross another stretch of water.

After crossing the water with the gnome, check along the left side near the cliff before continuing.

Collect the figurine there.

Lemus Figurine unlocks on collection.

Later, after escaping the first Näcken sequence and returning to the caves, watch for the skeletons beside the path. Interact there to read Storybook 2 before continuing.

Continue through the full Näcken escape.

During the violin sequence, move between pieces of cover only after each attack. Some later sections use moving rocks as protection, so stay controlled rather than trying to rush multiple pieces of cover at once.

Complete the final escape.

Näcken unlocks once the encounter has been survived and you escape from him.

Do not clear the bramble immediately.

Go left and follow the short side path to the figurine. Collect it, return to the main route, then continue through the bramble.

Tuva Figurine unlocks on collection.

Before taking the stairs, follow the lower route beneath the structure toward the broken boats.

Collect the figurine hidden at the end of this detour, then return to the main path.

Kärrhäxan Figurine unlocks on collection.

Eventually you enter the witch's house and reach a room with a burning doorway and cauldron.

Before solving the puzzle, inspect the room and pick up the toy duck. Do not leave the house without it. This is the prerequisite for Proper burial later in the chapter.

The symbols displayed on the burning doorway tell you which ingredients to combine.

For the first mixture, match the circle and plus symbols.

For the second, match the diamond and three-circle symbols. One of the required liquid containers can blend into the room, so inspect the available bottles as well as the powders.

Brew both mixtures to extinguish the doorway.

Witchcraft unlocks when the potion puzzle is completed and the route opens.

In the next room, interact with the storybook. This is Storybook 3 and is also required for story progression.

Continue to the swamp boss.

Use the light against Kärrhäxan when she exposes herself, avoid her attack patterns, and complete each phase.

Kärrhäxan unlocks when the swamp midwife is defeated.

Continue through the remainder of the chapter until the burial scene.

If you collected the toy duck from the witch's house, continue normally to the grave sequence near the end of the chapter.

Proper burial unlocks during that sequence when the duck is placed on the grave.

Fight through the first three phases.

At the end, Olle begins repeatedly stabbing Skogsrå. Keep pressing the Xbox X prompt during this interaction.

You need 100 registered stabs. Do not stop merely because the normal sequence seems ready to end.

Murderer unlocks on the 100th registered stab. Keep pressing until the achievement appears, then finish the sequence.

After Murderer is secured, complete the encounter normally.

Skogsrået unlocks when you make it through Skogsrå's grove.

Inspect the book on the left-side bench, then check the nearby cabinet and collect the figurine.

Skogsrået Figurine unlocks on collection.

After leaving this building, progress until you crouch through the bulrushes during the stealth section.

When you reach the next building, enter it and read the storybook inside. This is Storybook 5.

Later, after retrieving a key from a corpse's hand and returning outside, enter the house on the right and read the storybook inside. This is Storybook 6.

Near the top of the tower, stop before climbing the final long ladder.

Explore the top of the scaffold before taking the final ladder and collect the figurine near the edge.

Pesta Figurine unlocks on collection.

Then continue into Pesta's Nightmare.

Avoid the rats and rake attacks first rather than forcing shots.

During the sections where several faces surround you, identify the active Pesta figure by the visible breathing or sniffling animation and target that one.

Complete the remaining escape sequences and all phases of the encounter.

Pesta unlocks when you successfully escape.

Complete the summit sequence.

Bramble unlocks when Olle frees himself from the bramble.

Inside the library, check the desks near the main room and collect the Lyktgubben figurine.

Lyktgubben Figurine unlocks on collection.

Now interact with the storybook on the central lectern.

This is Storybook 7.

If you followed the route and interacted with all seven storybooks, Bookworm unlocks after the final library storybook is completed.

If it does not unlock, finish the story before troubleshooting. Chapter Select can then be used to revisit the book chapters.

The seven routed storybooks are in Chapters 1, 6, 10, 11, 13, 13, and 16.

Leave the library through the bookshelf passage. Immediately after passing through, turn back toward the bookcase you came through.

Inspect the upper-right part of the bookshelf and collect the final figurine.

King Nils Figurine unlocks on collection.

If the previous ten figurines were collected and registered correctly, Collector should unlock when the final figurine is added.

If Collector does not unlock, first check the individual figurine achievements.

If one of the 11 individual figurine achievements is missing, use Chapter Select to revisit that collectible, pick it up again, and continue far enough to reach the next autosave before leaving the chapter.

If all 11 individual figurine achievements are already unlocked but Collector itself remains stuck at 90% or otherwise fails to unlock, there is no verified deterministic Xbox recovery established by the current evidence. Recollecting a suspected figurine through Chapter Select may be worth attempting, but it is not a verified fix for this true glitched state.

Continue deeper into the Halls of the Mountain King.

During the opening phase, dodge the King's attacks and damage the exposed bramble flower during safe opportunities.

Later, avoid the sword slashes and move away from the scepter slams. When the King prepares the large ranged blast, use the available stalactites or other intended cover rather than remaining exposed.

When the final bramble flower opens, reach it and complete the climb.

The Mountain King unlocks when the Mountain King is defeated.

Interact with the window to complete the ending sequence.

Home Again unlocks when the game is completed.

If this entire playthrough happened without a death or checkpoint restart, Survivor can also unlock here. Otherwise, finish any remaining cleanup and prepare for the dedicated second run.

Start a fresh New Game.

The Xbox description is simply "Complete a playthrough without dying," but the actual safe completion rules are stricter:

• Do not die.
• Do not choose Restart Checkpoint.
• Do not use Chapter Select.
• Quitting the game normally and later choosing Continue is safe. The playthrough does not need to be completed in one sitting.
• Ignore collectibles and optional achievements. Everything else should already be complete.

A checkpoint reload counts against the run, so never voluntarily reload after making a mistake. If a situation has already become unrecoverable, consider that attempt failed rather than using Restart Checkpoint and hoping the run remains valid.
