How to unlock the Cruel god achievement in Babel Rising - Definitive Guide

To obtain this achievement you need to send 10 maximum difficulty waves to your opponent in a versus match. As the only multiplayer available is local splitscreen, you will have to either do it by yourself with two contollers (Which will simply require you to play a few games) or convince your sibling/spouse/neighbour to help you out to do it in one.

First, I will detail a little bit what "difficulty waves" are. To send waves to your partner, you need to perform combos. The higher the combo, the more difficult the wave you will send. After you have finished your combo, you will see a symbol of a worker move over to your partners side of the screen with a multiplyer number next to it. If it says 'x24' next to it, you have sent a maximum wave. The combo you will need to send changes as the game goes on, so there is no set number I can give you. For the powers, use Earth and avoid Water. You can use your own preference for Wind and Fire as they are similar.

Now load up the first temple in a competitive match. If you are going up against someone else, you will most likely both naturally get the achievement just by trying to get combos. If you are going up against yourself (Meaning the controller sitting alone next to you), then you will have to do a few games. Don't worry though as it typically only takes 3 matches to complete at a few minutes each.

NOTE: If you are doing this with an idle controller, make sure you restart at the end of the game. Do not leave the 'game session' by going back to the menus as it will wipe your current tally. Thank sirbradenwalker for figuring this out!

Achievement unlocks as soon as you send the last wave :)

Are you certain they're max difficulty waves? Aka x24 waves?

You have to keep hitting the restart button at the game over screen if you want to do it over multiple games. You also want to be using the earth element and anything besides water because of how power combos work. The reload on the the earth's rock is super quick so you'll be less likely to lose your combo. The required multiplier changes each game but it remains in the 8x-12x range. Took me 3 games @ 3 minutes each just letting the other controller idle.

Well that makes it much easier to do for those who don't have someone to do it with! Thanks Munch, I've edited (Read: Rewritten xD) the guide to include your method :)

Either something glitched for me or your guide is incorrect. I've sent dozens of x24 waves in multiple versus games and still no pop. Strictly negative vote.

Thanks for the info! I have put it into the guide, and I know quite a few people will appretiate not having to find a second local partner to help out :)

Hmm it appears to be one of 'these' achievements. I have had a few people confirm it works on multiple, and now a few say it doesn't. I am going to change this guide to what it originally was, and just have a note that you "Could be lucky and not have to do this in one game".

I'm not able to unlock this in multiple matches. Unfortunately I don't have anybody around to play this with me.

NOTE: This achievement title and description are actually glitched. Outside of the game, the achievement is above, which is a carry over from the XBLA version of the game in which there is multiplayer. In-game, the achievement is called "Patient God" and is described as "Use two distinct level 3 powers in a single game." Follow the description below to unlock this achievement.

This achievement requires that you use two level 3 (ultimate) powers in a single game. The ultimate powers for Earth, Fire, Water, and Wind are Rock 'n Roll, Meteor Shower, Tidal Wave and Sandstorm, respectively. Make sure you have two of these purchased (they do not need to be upgraded at all) and then start a game with those elements equipped. At the start of a round, both of your ultimate powers will be available. Use one then the other to pop this achievement.

You need 2 players who play well, otherwise it will be difficult to send 10 waves. A weak player will lose before you send the 10th wave. I received the trophy after about 10-15 minutes of confrontation.

I refute the previous tip, the trophy is simply done with 2 joysticks, the first player sends the maximum combo, when next to the sent wave icon it says x24, in one round you will have time to send 2-3 of these, after the defeat of the 2nd player, press restart and new and so on until you receive the trophy, the main thing is not to go to the menu, otherwise the counter will be reset.
