Sons of the Forest achievements

All 30, what each one asks of you and the guide that gets you there.

The wiki lists 30 achievements. One, Trusted, needs someone else's multiplayer game; the rest work solo. 10 are tiers of 3 counters (days survived, logs placed, holes dug) and 5 are checklists — Foodie, Fashionista, Maker, MC Crafty, Oooh Shiny — with the wiki's list on each card. Players report 3 as unreliable: Keep Your Friends Close, Collector, Chivalry Is Not Dead.

What the game files show

  • The names and descriptions above are the wiki's. We searched the game's English text tables (from the dedicated server) first, and they contain no achievement text at all: it lives on Steam, not in the game.
  • The game's code does have 25 achievement trackers, one per family — a single day counter for the 4 survival tiers, one log counter for the 4 building tiers, one hole counter for Badger and I Like Blisters. Every achievement above is matched to its tracker on its card.
  • Two trackers have no achievement on the wiki: FoundFootageAchievement (found-footage recordings you have watched) and NotePagesAchievement (note pages). We don't know their names, so we don't give them any.
  • The wiki also notes 2 entries registered to the game on Steam but not shown there, so they cannot be earned: Knock-Knock and Dog Tags.
