All 40 Nightwater Steam Achievements
Nightwater has 40 Steam achievements. The index below includes every name in the current public Steam list, grouped by ordinary actions, regional milestone discovery and mastery, minigame objectives, and exploration or ending goals. Start with your current playthrough's goals rather than treating list order as a required route. Finding all regional Milestone Items and completing them are separate achievements. Spoiler-bearing exploration and key objectives are hidden behind a disclosure; their public descriptions do not establish missability, exact locations or ending prerequisites.

Start with ordinary play milestones
Foraging, Constructor and Automation reward a first resource, building and pipe. Manifested concerns island expansion. Equipment and Prepared are separate goals for crafting one Equipment piece versus every piece. Use these as recognizable checkpoints while following the tutorial and the resources currently available to you.
Finish each regional pair deliberately
Forest, Mountains, Desert, Snowy Hills, Volcano and Starlight Fields each have discovery and Master goals. Recheck unfinished resource milestones if discovery is complete but mastery is missing. Do not infer that the region's minigame completion automatically satisfies resource mastery.
Treat minigame goals as distinct objectives
Forest has Wood Dust and Elder Tree goals; Mountains has Coins and a hidden chest; Desert has plant harvesting and Area 3; Snowy Hills distinguishes Melee and Bomber wins; Volcano names Track 1 and Track 4. An achievement in one activity does not measure completion of all five.
Plan completion without assuming missability
The public list does not say whether every goal can be completed after an ending, whether demo actions unlock retrospectively, or which save choices matter. Keep your exploration notes and consult a verified route before making a completion-critical decision. The full index stays on this one useful page rather than creating 40 short child pages.
