I am playing A Virus Named Tom on my PC and I have just unlocked a new achievement by name ‘Beam me Up’. I don’t know what unlocked this achievement. Also I had got some one or two achievements in past levels but didn’t notice it much. I wanted to know what the achievements in A Virus Named Tom are and has anyone unlocked all of them yet? Also can someone tell me what unlocks these achievements as I will try to gain them as soon as possible?
One of the commonly unlocked achievement in A Virus Named Tom is ‘The Dog days are Over’. This achievement can be unlocked by completing the story ‘Pet of Tomorrow’ of the game in single player mode. Another achievement that can be easily unlocked is ‘Leap before you look’. As the name is stupid, so is the method to unlock this achievement is stupid. You have to get your virus killed before it reaches the game board from the spawning point. One way to get this achievement is to die by getting hit by the anti-virus drone few seconds before the bomb explodes. Thus you will spawn a second or two before the bomb explodes and thus unlock this achievement. This achievement can also be unlocked in multiplayer modes. So all you have to do is go against a friend and let him kill you as you spawn.
You will need to complete ‘Teleporter’ chapter in the game’s single player mode of A Virus Named Tom to unlock ‘Beam me up’ achievement. Also completing the ‘Sidewalk of Tomorrow’ in the single player mode of this game will lead to unlocking of ‘One Small Step for Man’ achievement in A Virus Named Tom. If you can get the two energy pellets to revolve around Tom, you will unlock achievement by name ‘Helium’. Similarly getting three energy pellets to revolve around Tom will unlock an achievement named ‘Lithium’. This achievement can be unlocked in any game mode of A Virus Named Tom. Also getting an energy chain of 5 energy pellets can unlock an achievement by name ‘Macaroni Chain’.
I just unlocked an achievement by name ‘hotGirl365’ by completing the Holo Suit chapter in A Virus Named Tom in single player mode. Also there is a multiplayer version of the achievement ‘The Dog days are over’. You have to complete the ‘Pet of Tomorrow’ chapter in multiplayer mode to unlock this achievement. Also I have unlocked an achievement by name ‘Peeping Tom’ in multiplayer mode of A Virus Named Tom. If you are able to turn the pipes on other side of the barrier, then do it once in the co-op story mode. This will help you to unlock this achievement.
Completion of Hydrator chapter in single player mode of A Virus Named Tom will unlock an achievement by name ‘Steak n Eggs’. In the versus mode of A Virus Named Tom you have to defeat your opponent by infection domination to achieve ‘Dominatrix’ achievement. Also in the co-op mode of this game, you can get an achievement for blocking the escape route of your teammate to get his/her virus killed.
You will get an achievement by name ‘Et tu Brute?’ Also you can steal the energy from back of the chasing drone. This drone is in blue color. I know this needs great skills and practice, but if successfully done, you can get an achievement by name ‘Tom Burglar’.
I got a chain of 10 energy pellets to revolve around the Tom. This unlocked an achievement by name ‘Unobtanium Chain’. You can get the 10 energy pellets around the Tom in any of the game mode, single player or multiplayer. Also completing the ‘Teleporter’ chapter in multiplayer mode unlocks the ‘Beam me Up’ achievement in A Virus Named Tom.
One of the most surprising achievements in A Virus Named Tom is ‘Glitch Abstinence’.
The player has to complete the level 2-5 without dropping a single glitch in any game mode, which is single player or co-op mode. Now this is a wicked part from the developers as they know and also we know that it is one of the toughest levels in Glitch Abstinence.
