Achievements

The 12 achievements do not all fit cleanly into one blind route. Plan a normal magic completion first, then separate challenge routes for speed, no-major-magic, and You Are Fired.

The result screen tracks Clear Time, Magic Unlocked, Major Magic Used, Book Shelves Arranged, Keys Used, Best Time. Plan separate routes for speed, no-major-magic, key-upgrade, and failure achievements instead of forcing them into one run.

Novice Mage is a magic achievement.

Normal magic run
Type
Magic

This belongs on a normal magic completion route. Keep completing rows, spend magic points, and follow Magic Progression so all major magic branches advance.

Life Hack Wizard

Life Hack Wizard is a keys / minor magic achievement.

Requirement
Unlock all minor magic / chest upgrade powers.
Best run
Normal magic run
Type
Keys / Minor magic

This is a chest-upgrade route, not a magic-point route. Find all four keys and open the matching chests for High Jump, Run, and both carry-capacity upgrades.

The result screen records Keys Used, and the minor upgrades come from the four matching key chests.

The Archmage

The Archmage is a magic achievement.

Requirement
Max out all major magic levels.

Type
Magic

Overtime Avoider

Overtime Avoider is a special stage achievement.

Requirement
Use the ultimate skill in the Special Stage after finishing the main library.
Best run
Normal magic run after main completion

Finish the main library, enter Special Stage, and use the ultimate skill.

The result screen records rows arranged, magic unlocked, clear time, keys used, and best time.

  • Finish the main 3,072-book cleanup first.
  • Enter Special Stage from the title option after completion.
  • Use the ultimate-skill prompt rather than trying to manually solve it like the main library.
You Are Fired!

You Are Fired! is a joke / bad ending achievement.

Requirement
Arrange the library incorrectly without completing a single row, then leave.
Best run
Separate joke run
Type
Joke / Bad ending

Use a throwaway route. The goal is to fill the library incorrectly without completing a row, then leave through the in-game exit.

The result and evaluation UI include a Fired result, so keep this as a separate bad-route attempt.

  • Do this as a separate attempt from your real completion run.
  • Avoid accidentally completing easy same-title rows while filling wrong sections.
  • Exit only after the library is intentionally wrong enough for the failure condition.
Efficiency Librarian

Efficiency Librarian is a speedrun achievement.

Requirement
Complete the game in under 3 hours.
Best run
Separate optimized magic run
Type
Speedrun

Do this after a learning clear. Get all keys early, prioritize carry upgrades, and build your route around Assemble.

The result screen records Clear Time and Best Time. Special Stage and incomplete-library clears do not count as normal best-time records.

Anti-Magic Master

Anti-Magic Master is a no-magic challenge achievement.

Requirement
Complete the game without using active major magic.
Best run
Separate manual run
Type
No-magic challenge

Avoid active major magic: Assemble, Insight, Shelf Guide, Sort, and Auto-Shelving.

The result screen records Major Magic Used. Keep active major magic at zero on this run.

  • Keep Books open for exact title lookup because Shelf Guide and Insight are off-limits.
  • Work one shelf section at a time so you can catch red placement feedback immediately.
  • Do not spend points into major magic on this attempt; player reports say buying a major spell can fail the achievement even if it is never cast.
  • If books seem missing, use the blue crystal on the back landing between floors. Its tooltip says it does not count as magic.
  • Do not combine this with speed-routing unless you already know the library layout.
