A work in progress for how to get the achievements in King of the mountain. If anyone knows how to get the achievements I don't know (at this point Iron Maiden), please add a comment and I'll update.

Stamp Description
Characteristics
Blue Snowflake
control composure precision calculation
Orange Fox
devious wiles
Pink Dove
conviction courage
Purple Mask
poise timing aloof
Red Swords
grit stubbornness
Yellow Profile
appeasement charisma charm

Each time you use a stamp, you improve your usage (or ability) of that characteristic. This in turn may give you different outcomes when choosing a response for that stamp or responding to a test identified with that stamp. This may also be specific to the individual the stamp was used on (and the number of times that stamp was used on the same individual)...
It seems to me that usage of the Orange Fox stamp may be associated with the ability to pick locks. I'm not 100% sure, but I had one play through where I didn't use many of the Orange choices and I didn't get the option to pick the lock that happens in several locations.
Achievements
At this time these are unordered:

A Woman of the world
I think this may be unmissable. I got this during the opening sequence before the first actual location. I don't know if it matters but my choices were Blue Snowflake (only choice), Yellow Profile, Orange Fox, Orange Fox.

Meet Fischer
unmissable I think - but in case it isn't, it popped up for me when I went to bump into Fisher at the hotel bar in Bern.

Pet the Dog
When in the vehicle with Rolf, pet his dog

Left to the Wolves
At the ? location Fraulein Wolff should go to get Fisher, I think you also need to shoot her

She Follows
In the first location Bienne - Click on the car before the building.

The Old Switcheroo
At the end, choose the text about having the real suitcase. Obviously you can't have lost the suitcase to get this one...

Mission Accomplished
This is for handing over the manila folder to your handler in Zurich (near the end of the game).

Femme Fatale
At the first hotel (Bern), meet Fisher at the bar, have drinks (if it matters I had French 57), have more drinks then drag him back to the room

A Blistering Performance
I dont know if these are important but they may effect the choices you get
---
I made sure to read the dossier on the way to Bienne
I choose "He sounds like Fun" when hearing about Fisher in Bienne
I listened to the wall in Bern
I picked the lock to his room
Left the room to bump into him in the bar (Meet Fisher achievement triggered here)
Had a French 75
And another and another
Dragged Fisher back to my hotel room(Femme Fatale achievement triggered here)
He was absent when I woke but but left an invitation
Meet him at the boat / flirt and dont talk about business
When the Polizei loom get a little help from Fisher then go back to your room
Avoid business
--
On the way to the Grand Prix
I choose the "Down the Street" route then the Blue Snowflake (I followed...) choice.
--
At the Grand Prix (the sections in bold may be the only ones required):

Pink Dove "Thanks to the dossier"
Then Orange Fox "slipped past the cordon"
Then Purple Mask "Feigned a Swoon"
Then Yellow Profile "I could help"
Then Orange Fox "If he knew he was disqualified"
Then Red Swords "I'm taking the car"
Then Yellow Profile "The Green Flag Flew"
Then Blue Snowflake "Stop Being Silly"
Then Yellow Profile "Accidentally Competing in Grand Prix"
Then Arrows with a Yellow background "I dropped back"
Then Yellow Profile "I whooped"
Then Arrows with a Yellow background "Suspecting a trap"
Then Arrows with a Blue background "I headed straight for the inside"

At this point the A Blistering Performance achievement dropped.

Feeling Lucky
This happens at the ? location when you get the gun Fraulein Wolff thought was empty but it has 6 chambers instead of 5.

The Peoples Triumph
At Interlaken, let the Russian get away with the documents. Not compatible with getting The Saboteur in the same playthrough. I'm not sure if you need to have picked Fishers lock in Bern to be able to pick this lock...
Click on Hotel - not seaplane
Yellow Profile I had to admit she was good...
Orange Fox I half expected...
Orange Fox I wondered how honest...
Orange Fox After that everything happened very quickly...
Blue Snowflake I raised an eyebrow...
Red Swords I raised my hands...
Red Swords My muscles tensed...
Purple Mask She Hadn't noticed...
Orange Fox Had to keep her talking...
Yellow Profile Fraulein how do you manage...
Red Swords She toppled wonderfully...
Purple Mask I can't believe...
Orange Fox I picked the lock...
Yellow Profile My name is...
Orange Fox I glanced down...
Blue Snowflake As far as I was concerned...
Click on seaplane

The Elusive Shadow
Don't get caught by the police

The Saboteur
At Interlaken, go to the seaplane before going to the hotel (I talked the fisherman into lending us a rowboat for free), knock on the door, threw the man into the water, searched the coat pocket and then the documents on the chair, showed the photograph to Fraulein Wolff.

In You Go
I think you have to have met (or seen) the Fraulein prior to the party for these options to become available. During the pre-Grand Prix party on the boat at Aare, approach Fraulein Wolff, curl mouth, ask why she was here, ask name (may not have to do this if you already know), say drop the act, wait for her to play her hand, smile and give her a good hard shove

Money-Back Guarantee
Don't spend money from the briefcase for bribing people etc. Don't give the briefcase to Fisher. I think I had to listen to the wall in the hotel in Bern and then pick the lock to his room to get enough mistrust that I had options not to give him some level of money... I added a section with my notes for this (it was too long to add to this section).


The Common Cold
I believe that you have to be exposed to water, rain or cold multiple times. It pops near the end when you are in Zurich. I added a section with my notes for how I got this...

Iron Maiden
?

Stop Shooting At Me!
You have to be shot at twice. The first place I found was at Interlaken, go to the hotel before the seaplane, when the Russian runs with the documents, chase him, leap after his boat and punch his henchman. There should be a Purple Mask with text like "A bullet left a 3 inch..." somewhere shortly after that, choose it. In the same play through at Grimsel Pass, go to the wrecked car by yourself leaving the Fraulein to watch, choices "No Body", "Could be Fischer", "I told him exactly...", "I don't want to murder him". I think you have to have made fewer Yellow Profile choices to get the achievement (possibly if you have too much charisma Rolf won't shoot at you).
Notes
If you feel like a conversation is going wrong, try doing a Save and Quit followed by a Continue. Often you get to redo quite a large portion of it. If you don't have save and quit available at that point doing an end task on the overthealps process and then starting the game and continuing usually has the same effect.

The bad side effect of this is that if you actually want to save and quit - you might not find yourself where you thought you should be (and have to redo things).

If you actually want to save and quit, the safest place is when you start a new location.
Money Back Guarantee Walkthrough
These are some notes about the exact choices I did to get this achievement. There may be other routes to get it as well - and during the race it may tell you that money is coming out of a car - but it doesn't seem to be the money from the briefcase...

Endings
The endings that I have found (so far) are:

  • Annie gets dismissed
  • Back to Paris
  • Retire to a tropical location
  • Go away with Fisher to a tropical location
  • Leave (Control?) to work more effectively against fascism
  • Get a new assignment that starts in 2 weeks that needs you to speak German

much appreciated on the 'russian documents being taken back to russia'...i had never encountered those cards before where i get the chance to just let him go...and sorry, no...'Iron Maiden' is the last achievement i need and i think it's honestly bugged. I became best friends with both Fraulein and Wolfe (and i did this on several occasions where it said they both really liked me); but no matter what i never get any cards asking to play a drinking game when we get to the cabin.
NS Plover  [author] 8 May, 2021 @ 2:03pm 
@dubzggately Did you manage to get the Iron Maiden Achievement? What do you need to do?
NS Plover  [author] 8 May, 2021 @ 10:53am 
@dubzggately I updated the guide with the steps that worked for me after I was in Interlaken. Note, I think you have to have the briefcase when you arrive in Interlaken.
NS Plover  [author] 7 May, 2021 @ 4:12pm 
@dubzggately This happens at Interlaken and you have to have the briefcase (so that Fisher takes it instead of the folder). I think you cannot go to the seaplane before the hotel and if I remember right you can't warn the Fraulein or go after the Russian. Hope this helps...
dubzggately 2 May, 2021 @ 2:22pm 
Omg THANK YOU, so much your guide and taking the time to do this! I tried forever on my own to get ‘catch a cold’ but I just couldn’t get it; followed your guide to the letter and it popped up just like you said it would. Now the only one I can’t get is ‘Fischer documents are taken to Russia’…I can’t figure out how to let the Russian escape. It seems I always catch him somehow or sabotage him from leaving. Any hints?
T.I.L.S.S. 20 Jan, 2021 @ 12:21pm 
I can confirm that you can get both "In You Go" and "The Common Cold" in one playthrough thanks to your guide. I followed your "Common Cold" Walkthrough to the letter apart from the conversation with Wolff on the party boat:
Blue Snowflake | I curled my mouth into a smile that was equally barbed
Orange Fox | "Fraulein Wolff! So wonderful to see you again!"
Red Swords | "Drop the act, Fraulein!"
Orange Fox | I waited for her to play her hand
Red Swords | I smiled, nodded, put my hand behind her back and gave her a good, hard shove.

"In You Go" Achievement drops here.

The only difference is an extra sentence when she leaves the boat with Fisher and the picture changes to a soaked wet Wolff as well. Apart from that, she doesn't seem to hold it against you for the rest of the playthrough which is nice. Thank you very much for this wonderful guide.
Wandering Fruitcake 20 Jan, 2021 @ 11:59am 
Well, then I can confirm that you indeed need to have the Fraulein with you at the pass (and leave her by the bike/truck), otherwise you don't get the "I told him exactly..." dialogue option.
NS Plover  [author] 20 Jan, 2021 @ 3:55am 
@Wandering Fruitcake - I brought her along and left her at the truck. Didn't try getting away from her at Interlaken so don't know if that would work too.
Wandering Fruitcake 20 Jan, 2021 @ 3:16am 
About Stop Shooting at Me!;
"In the same play through at Grimsel Pass, go to the wrecked car alone"
Does this prerequisite that you get away from the Fraulein at Interlaken or do you have to bring her along and approach Fischer's car alone, leaving her at the truck?
T.I.L.S.S. 19 Jan, 2021 @ 4:24pm 
Weirdly enough, when you hover over that specific achievement in your library, it shows that 0.1% got it but all the tracking websites including Steam itself (when looking at global achievements from your own in the library) states 0%. Most curious. I made a small screenshot to show you. https://docs.google.com/document/d/12sPVrAf-9aHm7SwBrrxZsR25nhaGP8N-U7xRMc8fskQ/edit?usp=sharing
