Manor Lords: List of All Achievements & How to Get Them

Manor Lords has arrived, and after 7 years of development, players are finally going to be able to get their hands on one of the most popular strategy city builders of the past decade. Starting from a small settlement, slowly expanding while dealing with weather, different seasons, and enemy raiders is just a small portion of what this game has to offer, even in its current early access stage. There are many resources to be found, buildings to be constructed, and lands to be conquered, so if you are interested in a medieval city-builder sim, make sure to take a look at Manor Lords.

One feature that has already been added to Manor Lords is achievements, and even though it seems like there will be more once the game is fully released, there is still a good amount for players to try and unlock. Here is the full list of achievements in Manor Lords, as well as how you can get them!

Manor Lords: All Achievements & Requirements

Manor Lords currently has 11 different achievements that you can unlock, and while some of them are as easy as just starting the game, others will require you to pretty much beat the game under certain conditions, such as defeating the Baron while playing the 'Restoring the Peace' scenario on challenging difficulty. There are also a few conditional achievements that will force you to play in a certain way, such as reaching the 'Small town' settlement status without hunting or gathering berries. Here is the full list of all achievements that are currently available in Manor Lords:

Manor Lords: How to Unlock All Achievements

• Start the Game: You should receive this after opening up the game for the first time after installing it.
• Survive the First Year: Make sure to be prepared for the first winter by stockpiling a lot of firewood and food.
• Challenge Accepted: This achievement requires you to conquer every region on the map on the highest difficulty in the game. This might take some time and practice, and we recommend leaving it for last, once you are a bit more experienced.
• Defeat Hildebolt & Restore the Peace: These two achievements can be done at the same time as they will require you to win the game via a Domination Victory. Challenge Accepted can also be done together with these two if you turn up your difficulty settings to 'Challenging.'
• Full Retinue: If you focus on increasing your population, you will easily be able to place 24 retainers in your Retinue.
• Cheerful Metropolis: This one might take some time as it requires you to reach the 'Large Town' status while also having your approval maxed out.
• Mercenary Captain: This requires you to beat the game by only using mercenaries. Make sure not to turn any of your peasants into Militia or Retinue.
• For Whom the Bell Tolls: You can change the sound of the church bell by interacting with the 'Church Bell Sound' option next to it.
• The Merchant: Focus on trading and avoid gathering berries or hunting. Reaching 'Small Town' settlement status will not take too long.
• The Vigilantes: This can only be done if you have low public order and your civilians turn against you and become bandits.

And that is every achievement in Manor Lords, their requirements, and some tips and tricks on how you can unlock them. We expect even more achievements to arrive once the game leaves early access and is fully released in the future.
