東京ダーク100%ガイド: Tokyo Dark 100% Achievement Guide
By General Fried Microwaves
This is not meant to be a detailed walkthrough. I do not think that is necessary, it is however a guideline on how you can get all achievements in the game. Good luck!

紹介、Introduction
Tokyo Dark is a point and click styled visual novel with branching choices that reaches a total of 11 endings. It features an autosave feature that makes all your choices permanent. I truly suggest that you finish the game once first without using this guide, for the fullest experience, and most personal experience. Only use this guide when you are stuck on how to get some achievements.

During your first game you can only obtain 1 ending, but it will unlock New Game+, which adds a few features to make the game easier to progress and complete the story, such a save that you can use in various areas of the story, and a skip button that can be used in some areas the devs think are skippable after first playthrough. There will still be lots of things you already read, so get an autoclicker, or your hand will hurt from it.

選択の解除、Choice Achievements.
This is a list of missable choice achievements you will get throughout the game. I believe you will get at least one of each section in a playthrough, (unless you got it before). For side quest achievements, please refer to that section. Since the game is still new, I will put these achievements in spoilers.


新宿、Shinjuku
  • One won't hurt: 酒を注文する, Order a drink



  • Sober: 拒否する「酒」, Refuse (Drink)



下水道, Sewer
  • Bring a Gun to a Knife Fight: 銃を構える, Draw gun



  • I Don't Talk with Dead Girls: 銃を構える, 撃つ: Draw gun, Shoot



  • By the Book: 武器を捨てろ!、逮捕を試みる: Drop the knife!, Attempt arrest



  • Run Away, Little Girl: 武器を捨てろ!、 銃を構える, 逃げる: Drop the knife, Draw gun, Run


  • Indecisive: 20秒を待ってください。: Wait for counter to finish



鎌倉市, Kamakura
  • BamBOOM!: 竹を撃つ。: Shoot Bamboo



  • Backtracker: 「桜を」取る:Take sakura branch.


警視庁、Police HQ
  • Match Maker: In order to get this, when you talk to Saki she will eventually hand you a letter. You need to accept it, then go up and speak to your boss. Eventually you will be allowed to go to your office. When you are done there, return to the elevator, and there will now be a policeman there. Give him the letter and he will ask you to tell Saki that he will be on the roof. Deliver that information and this achievement should be yours.
  • See No Evil: If you did Match Makers, you have now access to the CCTV, and can turn it off.


  • This is not a drill: When you head to the basement, talk to Mori about earthquakes, this will unlock the fire alarm next to your office. Pull it. :)


  • Cat Burglar: In order to pick the lock in the basement, mori can't be there. Before you pull the fire alarm, enter your office and pick up the hair pin and then pull the fire alarm. This will allow you to pick the lock in the basement.

  • That'll leave a mark...: Alternatively, if you don't pull the fire alarm, you can get down there, try to pick the lock, and you'll get the option to just knock him out instead.


秋葉原、Akihabara
  • 女子高生、Highschool girls:
    • No Time for that: Push as much as you can for information and you will get this, but they will not budge anyway, and send you on an errand.


    • The Letter of the Law: On the girl's errand, Tell Goto what he is doing is illegal.



    • Not on my watch: On the girl's errand, threaten Goto.



    • Never again: On the girl's errand, shoot Goto. Throw him down the well for good measure.


    • Serve and Protect: When you return and tell the girls you've dealt with Goto, you get this.


  • 猫メイドカフェ、Cat maid cafe:
    • Maid to Talk: Push for information, you'll eventually get this.



    • Maid New Friends: Go to the arcade after agreeing to help them, and play the crane machine. Win the big one in the middle and give it to the maids.


  • 猫カフェ、Cat Cafe:
    • Catty: Push the cat lady for information.



    • Don't eat the fish. Agree to help her, exit and talk to the sushi guy next door. Then run all the way to the left, and accuse that dude of poisoning the fish. Return and speak to the cat lady. This one seems slightly buggy if you do it too fast when speaking to the cat lady. Keep that in mind.

歌舞伎町、Kabukicho
Not Making Any Friends: The Yakuza boss will make you go to the cat cafe in Akihabara and demand money. Do not give in to cuteness. Do Not. I said DO NOT.


When one door closes...: The Yakuza boss will make you go to the cat cafe in Akihabara and demand money. Instead of doing that, offer to help the cat lady, return to the boss, speak with her, and a cat will save the day.

警視庁に戻った時、Return to the Police HQ
Breaking point: When the detective humiliates you, and you try to leave, instead choose violence, and take him hostage. Good choice at a police station.


Submission: Instead, you can play his game. Leave and go to Asakusa and speak with the Kendo master. He will give you sake and you bring that back to the police office as a "peace offering" and then you manipulate him into giving you what you want.

サイドクエストの解除、Side Quest Achievements
These are 3 sets of 2 achievements related to the 3 people you meet first in Shinjuku.
Based on 1 choice in the playthrough each, as far as I can tell, possible you may have to visit them all the time (recommended that you visit them whenever you can, as I have not tested not visiting them all the time), they can have a negative or positive response.

Miho, the hostess
  • Diamond in the Rough: Try to visit her every time you're in Shinjuku. Eventually she will give you a question, if you tell her that you care, return to her in Shinjuku before you end the game.

  • Say Hello To Kasumi From Me: Tell her the opposite, and visit her before the end as well


Daizo, the izakaya owner
  • A Change of Pace: Try to visit him every time you're in Shinjuku. Eventually he will give you a question, tell him that he shouldn't give up, and then visit him before the end of the game as well.

  • Too Late: Tell him the opposite, and visit him before the end as well.



Kobayashi, the warehouse worker
  • Moving Up In The World: At the very start of the game, do not shoot the dumpster.
    Talk to him instead. Do not drink before you do this. Simply enter the warehouse and talk to him instead, and you will be able to access the dumpster. Visit him before the end as well.

  • Shibuya Is A Whole World Away: Shoot the dumpster. It's a very good choice. Visit him at the end as well.
エンディングの解除、Ending Achievements
There are a total of 11 Ending Achievements. I am currently updating the rest of the endings. I will put things in spoilers for now. Some of them are very obvious to get, however.
I only list them in this section, check the sections below.

  • Revenge



  • Only a Child



  • The End Of The Mask



  • Reap What you Sow



  • Goodbye, I Love You



  • I'll Remember How You Were



  • Alone Together



  • Lost



  • Nothing is Real



  • Becoming



  • The Cat God's Blessing: Hint 20 seconds says it all In case you don't want a hint, look at the new section below.


Note, I will list the ways to get them in terms of achievement for now, as I do not have a collection of all the exact words for the choices. I however, do not know all the choices and what they do, there may be some other choices that are important, but I am not sure about them, so forgive me if this somehow doesn't work. Let me know if you find something and it breaks.
初めのエンディング、First Ending
While I do recommend that you DO your own first playthrough.
I am providing my first playthrough here, which was the Revenge ending.

However,
tThis will lead to the insanity ending if you do not eat pills or food every now and then. You must make sure you wont reach -100 and below in Aokigahara. Other than that, this should give you the Revenge.


  • One won't hurt
  • Backtracker
  • Match maker
  • See no evil
  • This is not a drill!
  • never again
  • Serve and protect
  • maid to talk
  • Catty
  • Not making any friends
  • Breaking Point


Then simply head to Shinjuku, and run down the sewer, and you should have the option to choose "Destroy Reina".
特別なエンディング、Special Endings
I consider "Lost" and "Insanity" ending to be special endings, as they are both achieved before the last branch of endings after Aokigahara.

Lost
Lost, or the suicide ending, is very easy to get. It is the first ending you can possibly get, but I do not know if it will unlock the New Game+ or not, as I did not attempt it until afterwards. I can't test it because I can't find the save files, sadly.

The earliest you can get this, is after being in the hospital, and return to the apartment, you have the option to take pills. This is good for fixing sanity, but only if you take it once, then it becomes bad. But you can take it how many times you'd like. Keep taking the pills, and eventually, you will die. Granting you this ending.

Insanity
Insanity is the other ending you can achieve before the branch after Aokigahara. You can use the outline I put in the previous first section, and as long as you don't take pills or food, you should have -100 before you get to Aokigahara, at the very least, close enough to reach that and below, before you leave Aokigahara. When you pick up that thing at the end of Aokigahara, and the cutscene is triggered, this should in turn trigger a new cutscene, where you go insane, as warned by the maid girl and the grandmother before.
激しいエンディング、Violent Endings
The outline I gave in the First Ending section, leads to a lot of the violent options. In New Game+, this gives more options to. Remember to take pills so you can PASS Aokigahara. But don't take too many, because I'd imagine taking too many, will remove violent ends.


  • One won't hurt
  • Backtracker
  • Match maker
  • See no evil
  • This is not a drill!
  • never again
  • Serve and protect
  • maid to talk
  • Catty
  • Not making any friends
  • Breaking Point


After Aokigahara, you will have the choices of going to either Shinjuku or Kamakura. Make sure to save when going back. There is an additional save spot in the sewers to get the bunch of endings there.

  • Shinjuku
    • Forget and confront Reina:
      • Leave Reina and Save Tanaka:
        • Wear the Mask
          • Leave him and Save yourself: Goodbye, I love you ending
          • Stay Together: Alone Together ending

      • Destroy Reina: Revenge Ending
    • Become the Mask Bearer: Becoming the mask ending. I believe you must pick up the items in Aokigahara, or you wont be able to do this. Not sure if you can leave without them though. Never tried.
  • Kamakura - Going to Kamakura, will give you Reap what you sow, or the arrested ending.


プロフェッショナルのエンディング、Professional Endings
Here is a new set of choices, that may or may not be professional, but they work for the rest of the endings. Remember to take pills, but I don't think you will reach -100 sanity doing this.


Sober
Bring a gun to a knife fight
I don't talk with dead girls
BamBOOM
That'll leave a mark
Maid new friends
Don't eat the fish - Seems to be slightly bugged if you click too fast, keep that in mind
When one door closes...
Submission



After Aokigahara, you will have the choices of going to either Shinjuku or Kamakura. Make sure to save when going back. There is an additional save spot in the sewers to get the bunch of endings there.

  • Shinjuku
    • Forget and confront Reina:
      • Leave Reina and Save Tanaka:
        • Wear the Mask
          • Leave him and Save yourself: Goodbye, I love you ending
          • Stay Together: Alone Together ending
          • Bring him home: I'll remember how you were ending

      • Forgive Reina and Lead her to the door: Only a Child ending
    • Become the Mask Bearer: Becoming the mask ending. I believe you must pick up the items in Aokigahara, or you wont be able to do this. Not sure if you can leave without them though. Never tried.
  • Kamakura - Going to Kamakura, will give you End of the mask ending.
猫のエンディング、Cat Ending
The cat ending is by far the hardest one to get, even though it's goal is relatively simple. The issue at hand is some of the 20 cats you need to pick up are very hard to see. You need to do this in one run, picking all of the cats up as you go. There is also at least one choice you have to do correctly for the ending to occur. I have marked all cats with a red circle. I have put a spoiler on the final areas for now. I am posting this ending now, because it's the devil.

The first area of the game have no cats, reason being I would assume tutorial, even though they do not tell you that have to click the cats, which also have no prompts, which is why some are harder to find. But, the first cat toy you pick up and give to your cat is a signal that from then on, there will be cats to click. Here I post them in order of appearance, in their individual instance. Keep in mind if you forget to pick up a cat, you need to restart, either the game, or pray a save.

Don't forget to read things in relation to the Cat Cafe if you don't know what you're doing.


鎌倉市, Kamakura

病院、Hospital Scene

警視庁、Police HQ

新宿、Shinjuku

秋葉原、Akihabara
Here is the first place, one of your choices MAY affect the ending. (Only the latter is tested and confirmed so push for information at your own risk)
猫カフェの選択、Cat Cafe Choice: You can either push for information at the cat cafe, or, you can find out what happened with the fish.

Here comes the option to branch your path, and it doesn't really matter which path you choose,
I however, always choose Kabukicho.

歌舞伎町、Kabukicho
Now, here comes the choice that will directly affect the ending. (Tested and confirmed)
猫カフェの選択、Cat Cafe Choice:You have to Not make her pay the Yakuza. You must return with no money, or you will NOT get the ending.


浅草、Asakusa

青木ヶ原、Aokigahara
Now here they had an opportunity to mess with us really bad, but thankfully they didn't. And there's only one.

新宿、Shinjuku

下水溝の入った時に, Deep in the Sewer


Now, when you are meeting Reina, you have several choices you need to make.
In order;
  • Forget and Confront Reina
  • Leave Reina and Save Tanaka
  • Wear the Mask (not really a choice)
  • Touch the Door (not really a choice)

For the revenge ending, you don't need to have -100 sanity when you face Reina. I made it with -60 sanity and being a corrupt detective with -100 professionality.

First off: thank you for your work, this guide was much appreciated.

I do have a problem getting the cat ending. I followed your guide step by step, making sure to pick up every cat and to be nice to the cat café lady (finding the guy who poisons her cat and not making her sign the contract plus leading the cat to the yakuza lady). Thing is... I didn't get the ending. Could it be that I need a specific stat over a specific value or are there other choices that come into play? At this point I'd have to go through the game over and over again hoping for the right choices x.x and with no proper skip function this will destroy my hand.

I think i might know how the "Moving Up In The World" achievement works. In my first playthrough, I was drunk, talked to him and got the good ending. The next time, I wasn't drunk, talked to him and still got the good ending.

And this time, I tried playing without talking to him until the next visit to shinjuku. I got the bad ending. So I think you'd have to not talk to him the first time to get the bad ending.

I found out that you actually can miss one of the cats and still get the cat ending. I collected every cat until the last save point. Then collected the last one in the sewer and got the cat ending. Then I reloaded the save and didn't collect the last cat. But when I got to the door, I still got the cat ending. I had to use the second last save to also ignore the second last cat for it not to trigger. Well or I clicked on the last cat by accident, but honestly I'm fairly sure I didn't.
Despair is my second name 1 Feb, 2020 @ 5:54am 
So there are achievents which serve as flags on a way to getting endings?:cleanorm:
Ghos7Soldier 21 Jan, 2020 @ 2:35am 
Just want to state, I got the "Moving Up In The World" achievement even after drinking whiskey and shooting the lock, so not 100% sure how that worked but I got that one somehow.
Ohagi-Chan 30 Apr, 2018 @ 3:09pm 
Not sure which factor did it, forcing the cat lady to fess up her information, or neglecting to enquire why she had a mob debt, but at the very least if you do both of those you will be unable to let her off the hook when she needs to sign.

Lost gets you New Game+, by the way. :3
Mr.Burke 23 Jan, 2018 @ 12:24am 
@Simbiat Yeah i think i'll try that violent road and try again. Thanks for reply
Simbiat 22 Jan, 2018 @ 7:31pm 
Ryoma, you need to talk to him every time you have a chance. Also, for myself, I was generally aggressive during the game, so was a bit crazy by the time I got the achievement. Maybe that can help, too.
