General Information
YOU SHOULD HAVE 33 items in PDA when collected all collectible, while there are 30 collectibles total.

Game Completion time: 20-25hours +20-30hours for extra content if you want to solve the puzzles by yourself, no hints.
Perfection time: 35-50h + the time you need for the speedrun achievement (speedrun required only on base game), without checking vids or guides for puzzles. Signficantly less while watching solutions/videos. You need to get all collectible in one single run.
Difficulty: Speedrun achievement might require a few try and memorizing the puzzles, could be quite time consuming. Some puzzles are difficult, but with an available guide you can rest assured, that there is available material for hints in case you get stuck.

Required playthrough: 1+speedrun+2 different extra contents
Total achievements: 27+13 for the 2 extra contents.
Missable achievement: 2+6 for collectibles
Unmissable achievements: 19 included one of the ending but very unlikely to miss at least the first collectible achievement on both collectible category, so +2. +13 on extra content.

Collectibles
There are 30 collectible in Relicta, but 33PDA entries!!! as at the beginning of the game you get 3 extras or the first collectibles provide those additionals. Each collectible could be found at base areas, none of them found at puzzle areas.
You need to get all collectibles in one single playthrough.
If you missed one while exploring the first puzzles in each dome it is not a problem, you can still backtrack to there WHEN you will need to revisit that dome and finish the other puzzles there. But keep in mind, you used the elevator in a dome for the last which gets you to the last puzzles in that area then you can't return anymore.

Endings and Speedrun
There are 2 endings of the game

each award one achievement. If you want to experience the other ending or just get the achievement for the other one then you can just use Contine on the main menu instead starting a new game. Autosave is before the decision.

Speedrun

Complete the game in 6 hours.
-paused time/being at menu not counts
-it is not required to do the walkthrough in one single session. I started it at an afternoon, then finished on the next day
Skipping story options with R will speed up, but it is impossible on first walkthrough, unless you learn every single puzzle from my walkthrough video beforehand. That would actually kill the fun on first walkthrough.

However, it is suggested to refresh your memories on the puzzles with my walkthrough vids, else you still could be short on time and you need to retry on another new game.
Aegir Gig walkthrough
All achievements for Aegir Gig extra content are story related. These achievement were broken until 12th May 2021. If you finished the extra content then you still need to replay it again to get all achievements.

Hi @Lord Of War
That is very kind of you!!!
But I managed since then. I totally reset the game and tried once more.
Thanks anyway though, very thoughtful.

Hey [creve] ryal, would you like to try my save? I made a back up after 7th puzzle for that purpose. The trophy for solving 8 chambers unlocked fine for me.
[creve] ryal 12.2.2023 klo 4.57 
Well, I replayed aegir lab dlc (until 9th puzzle) and it still did't trigger.
This is the only missing achievement.
At this point I don't know what to do :(
[creve] ryal 27.1.2023 klo 14.12 
Thanks for the answer @Csontzuzo !
Yeah, I think I won't have a choice but to replay it.
I'll give it a try and report back here.
Thanks again

@[creve] ryal : That is quite weird. I know the extra content achievements were broken for a short time after its release, but those were fixed and if all 12 were registered for the 12 achievements, then the 8 should have been unlocked too. Weird, no clue how to fix that, if really your steam offline mode influenced that, then replaying extra content could unlock it, but being on steam offline mode shouldnt have such effects.
[creve] ryal 27.1.2023 klo 13.17 
Hi,
Thanks for the guide, it was useful to find some collectibles that I missed!
I have a question concerning aegir lab content. I have solve all 12 puzzles, I obtained the final achievements. However the "complete 8 puzzles" one did not trigger.
I believe it was because I was not online when I solve the 8th puzzle.
So now I have the 12th ach but not the 8th...
Any idea on how to fix this?
Thanks in advance.

@lyubov741: i think you can see the time only at the end? sorry, i dont remember that anymore.

@ C4pt41nN3m0
I had the same problem.
Use the opposite cube (the one in the cage) to get a push towards the surface on the wall (where the stones were) while standing on your cube (activate hovering). This will also give you some height and you will be attracted to the surface on the wall.
your cube and cube in the cage: color 1
surface on the wall: color 2

The solution to Sverdrup Jungle 1 (about 2:09 in the video) doesn't work, the rocks are not there in my game. It seems impossible without those rocks, so I'm not sure what to do. All guides I've seen use the rocks.
Lolo 3.10.2021 klo 13.23 
Thx for the guide. I missed one PDA but was able to backtrack after completing the game. I'm not gonna do speed run. Too much effort IMO.
