Achievement Unlocked is a platformer puzzle video game developed by jmtb02 Studios and published by Armor Games as a browser game on 2008-12-17. This was one of the first games to use meta progression as its primary game mechanic. The game was developed in Flash and is the first game in the Achievement Unlocked series.

In the game, there are 100 hidden achievements, each listed with a cryptic name which hints at what must be done to achieve them. Getting all 100 wins the game.

In the 2010s, I played a game where the entire concept was trying to get dozens of achievements. While browsing through popular Flash games, I saw this title and thought it might be the same game I played in the past. It wasn't the same game, but I still thought it was kind of fun, so I kept playing it. There were a handful of achievements that took me some time to figure out, but I got the last one after about an hour.

Good

• The silliness of the game is charming.
• There are several rather creative achievements that require a bit of head-scratching to discern.

Bad

• The controls are pretty awful. I don't usually expect much from such a silly game, but it's still pretty annoying.
• While the cheesy music is funny at first, it becomes quite annoying after awhile and makes it hard to think about how to solve the remaining achievements.
• A large percentage of the achievements are so insignificant you achieve them without even trying, and, sometimes, even noticing you got them.

Ugly

• Nothing.
