"Congratulations, you've won an achievement!"
Achievements are awards given to a player for accomplishing certain tasks in-game. The Steam versions of the Rusty Lake and Cube Escape games launched with achievements, with the exception of Rusty Lake Hotel, which had them added in a April 2021 update. The Kongregate-hosted versions of the Cube Escape series also have achievements in the form of "badges", though these are created by Kongregate staff and not by Rusty Lake themselves.
Rusty Lake Hotel[]
Rusty Lake Hotel has 23 unlockable achievements to earn through the game which were added in an April 2021 update. The main five rooms have 4 achievements each, most of which are unlocked by finding dinner ingredients, with one additional achievement per room and three more tied to the ending chapter.
