Foreword
Mango is a surrealist first-person adventure with a cohesive psychedelic art direction and off-kilter tone to its moods and storytelling that takes around 6 to 8 hours to complete. Because of its unique immersive nature, it is highly recommended to go into your first playthrough blindly and explore at your own pace, without utilizing this guide at all.
With that said, the game comes packed with a level selection map through which you can easily return to any individual level (41 in total) post-game and get the missable achievements.
Though the game flows in a continuous fashion, this guide opts to split it into three sections for ease of use. Click on any given section from the side bar to see which achievements are explained within it, then scroll to get tips as needed.
Studio / Home > Memory
This section covers levels 1 to 15 and details the following achievements:
Trash Mango, Can’t Miss This One, Eternal Love, Kill Yr Idols, Super Secret Toilet, Going Meta, Super Secret Room, Sleep Well. Drive Safe and Memory TV.

There is a third television in the room where you find the laser gun. Turn it off, get the laser gun from the table and interact with the now off-color part of the wall in the same room.
Shoot the floating figure in this ‘behind the scenes’ area to create a path over the rooftops to the other side. Follow the opening between the two houses to the right to find an exclamation point at the end of the path and interact with it.
Gardens: Following on from the previous secret, this time drop down to the left from the rooftops to reach the other exclamation mark that can be seen in the distance. Interact with it to spawn three jumping figures. Get underneath the one in the middle while it is in the air and wait for it to come down on top of you to reach a hidden area.
Speedway: As per description, take it slow and do not bump around as you drive to your flight.

Thanks to the developer mewhitenoise for his tips on a bunch of achievements and providing an ordered level list. This guide wouldn’t be complete without his help.
‘People always crave for what they think could be a better life for them. This is a concept which, for most people, takes its form mainly from outsider factors, such as peer pressure, capitalism, advertisement and marketing. For every new generation, anxiety levels are getting higher, because the idea of what is good enough keeps skyrocketing. In advertising, there is no time and space for profound meaning. Messages are simplified, generalized and condensed until they lose their true purpose. What actually works in most cases is just the aesthetics. Modern people try to achieve a life that looks good. Having outsiders believe that you’re always having a great time is a rush. Honestly expressing yourself and being vulnerable is far more debatable. Often it is more important to make it look like you’re living a great life, than actually feeling fulfilled, safe and in harmony with what’s going on around you. Sometimes we apply this concept to our very own appearance, using fashion, cosmetic surgery and going on to extreme lengths to look ‘healthy’. Some people get it quite early, others take too much time, and there’s a few that never do so.’
Thanks to erc for his great achievement guide, all credit to his effort. you can also read the original guide from Steam Community. enjoy the game.
