Unpacking 100% guide

This unlocks when you take the camera out of its box, which happens early in the level during normal unpacking. You don't need to take any photos.

Find the Rubik's cube. While holding it, keep pressing the interact button (B on a controller) until the cube is solved. On some runs it doesn't pop on the first solved state, so keep interacting until it unlocks. The cube also shows up again in 2004 if you need another chance.

Place the boombox (a cassette radio) and interact with it until music plays. The achievement should unlock as the music starts. If it doesn't unlock here, use the record player in 2010 (covered below) or any other music player in a later level.

This unlocks when you finish 1997. Place every item, then click the star.

Find the wooden artist's mannequin and keep interacting with it. It cycles through poses, and the achievement unlocks when it reaches the dab. The mannequin also comes back in 2007.

Put any electronic item in the bathtub or a sink. The bedroom computer monitor in the bathtub is an easy choice. A toaster, laptop or hair straightener also works. The achievement unlocks as soon as you place the item. Move it to a proper spot afterwards so the level can finish.

Put the cookie jar on top of the tallest wall shelves or cupboard in the kitchen, out of a child's reach. The top of the fridge isn't a confirmed spot. The achievement unlocks on placement. Do it in 2004, because not every later level has shelves high enough.

• Toilet: flush the bathroom toilet before you finish. This is toilet 1 for Gotta flush 'em all.

This achievement unlocks when you finish 2004.

Place a home console next to or under the living-room TV, then interact with the console or the TV to turn it on. Handhelds don't count. Use the blue console you unpack yourself rather than the one already hooked up to the TV. The achievement unlocks when the console powers on. Consoles also come back in 2010, 2013, 2015 and 2018.

Take the green cap from the bedroom and put it on the decorative head (the plain one, with no wig) on the shelf in the dining area. The achievement unlocks on placement. 2007 is the confirmed window. If you miss it, a reported 2015 fallback is to put a cap on the green, multi-eyed monster statue in the living room.

• Mannequin: if Strike a pose didn't unlock in 2004, the mannequin is here again.
• Toilet: flush the toilet. This is toilet 2.

This achievement unlocks when you finish 2007.

In the bedroom, the top two drawers of the wardrobe both hold the partner's underwear. Move all of it into one of those drawers. Either drawer works, and the top drawer is the simplest choice. The achievement unlocks once the underwear has been tidied into one drawer.

Do this before you unpack much of the kitchen, so the coffee gear is easier to find and the surfaces aren't crowded. The coffee equipment is already in the kitchen, spread across cabinets, drawers and counters. All of it must end up on the same surface: either the counter by the sink or the kitchen island, not split between them. This seven-piece set works:

• espresso machine (on the counter by the sink)
• both coffee grinders (one on the island, one on the counter near the scales)
• packet of coffee (upper-left cabinet)
• glass drip filter (upper-left cabinet, bottom shelf)
• white mug (middle wall cabinet, bottom shelf)
• metal kettle (in one of the lower drawers on the right)

Clear the surface of non-coffee items, then place all seven. The achievement unlocks the moment the last piece lands. If it doesn't unlock, check that nothing from the set is still sitting on a different surface or tucked in a drawer.

• Music: if Blast some tunes didn't unlock in 1997, place and interact with the record player here.
• Toilet: flush the toilet. This is toilet 3.

This achievement unlocks when you finish 2010.

There's a rolled-up purple poster stored on the left side of the cabinet beneath the window. Take it out and hang it on any wall. The achievement unlocks when the poster goes up.

This unlocks when you finish 2012.

Unpack the microwave and put it somewhere it gets plugged in, such as the shelf above the sink. Once it's set down, interact with it repeatedly to set its clock. This only works while it's placed, not while you're holding it. The achievement unlocks when the time is set. If you miss it, there's a fallback in 2015: pick up the microwave that's already placed, put it back next to an outlet, and interact with it. In 2018 you can unpack a microwave into one of the counter's outlet cubbies.

Use the fridge magnets to spell 1+2=3 in a single horizontal row. A vertical arrangement doesn't count. Space on the fridge door is limited, and the bottom area usually has the most room. The achievement unlocks when the equation registers. If it doesn't unlock, move the magnets closer together so they read as one line, and try again.

• Toilet: flush the toilet. This is toilet 4.

This achievement unlocks when you finish 2013.

The stuffed tiger first appears in this level. Place it right next to the stuffed pig, on the same surface (a bed works well). The achievement unlocks on placement. If it doesn't unlock, swap them so the tiger is on the pig's right. Both toys are also in 2018 if you need another chance.

Give every plant a valid spot. That includes the cactus already in the office from 2013, which counts toward the set. Plants need surfaces the game accepts, and elevated shelves and tables are safe choices. Cabinet interiors, the closet, the kitchen counter and the top of the fridge don't work. The achievement unlocks as soon as the last plant is placed. You need to place all of them to finish the level anyway, so this should unlock naturally when every plant is correctly placed; use album replay if necessary.

• Toilet: flush the toilet again. It's the same bathroom as 2013, but a flush here as well rules out any counting quirk between the two levels.

This achievement unlocks when you finish 2015.

In the nursery, stack any five baby blocks into a single tower. The order doesn't matter. The achievement unlocks once the stack registers. If it doesn't unlock, build the tower away from other objects so that nothing nearby interferes with the stack.

Flush both toilets in this house:

• the toilet in the main upstairs bathroom
• the small downstairs toilet. Its flush handle is partly hidden behind a white cupboard, with only a sliver of grey showing.

The achievement unlocks the moment you flush the last unflushed toilet. If it doesn't unlock after both 2018 flushes, open the album and flush the toilet in any earlier level you may have skipped: 2004, 2007, 2010, 2013 or 2015. Then click the star to save and exit. Flushes count across replays, so one flush per missed toilet is enough.

This unlocks when you finish 2018, the final level.
