198X Achievement Guide


198X is something different. A breath of fresh air among the platformers and simulation games of the indie scene, 198X provides a unique blend of classic gaming genres. From old-school 2-D beat ’em ups to bullet hell shooters, 198X has something for everybody. If you are an achievement hunter, then this game will have a little something for you too.

Guide to Success

there are only 14 achievements within 198X. Two of those achievements are secret. The game offers only these handful of achievements. However, the achievements should also be a relative breeze to earn. You will need to complete each chapter under certain pretenses, such as only using super effective attacks or completing a section of the game without losing a life. With all of that in mind, it should still only take a relatively small amount of time to 100% this game. If you want to learn how to earn each and every achievement this fascinating game has to offer, then check out the list provided below.

Hunter Boyce is a writer, which probably seems pretty obvious with "author" prominently displayed. He mostly writes about video games. However, he was previously a mixed martial arts news writer. When not writing about people pelting each other in the face or about leveling up in the latest RPG, he tends to spend his time as a web producer in Atlanta. You can shout all of your MMA and video game related quandaries at him at @SomthinClever on Twitter. Feel free to make your demands to him in ALL CAPS. He loves that.
