How to unlock the Mirror, Mirror achievement in Chronos: Before the Ashes - Definitive Guide
As you begin the game and are exploring the initial starting area (before using the World Stone to travel), you will find a room filled with chairs, and a large window showing an adjacent room with, if you have played Remnant: From the Ashes, a familiar looking enemy. On the wall above and to the right of the door in that room, you will see a three-symbol code - make note of this code.
If you want more specific direction - if facing the Ward 16 World Stone, turn right and proceed to the elevator, and enter. Upon exiting the elevator, go straight to the opposite wall's exit, then take your first left. Straight ahead from here is the room you need to be in.
Continue playing, travel to the first world and eventually you will find a mirror. Press A to examine and travel through it (this is necessary for the campaign, so it's not missable). When you exit the mirror, you will be in a room with a pedestal on which you can enter a three-symbol code. BEFORE YOU ENTER THE WARD 16 CODE, make note of the current code so you can change it back. I didn't and had to guess and check (the left and right symbols are just after the empty slot on their dials, and the middle one looks like an A). NOW, enter the code you saw back at Ward 16, then press A to activate the code you entered. Enter the mirror and the achievement will unlock. Watch out when you exit the mirror because that Guar'ee Hunter is WAAAAAY stronger than you, if you do this early on.
I took a screenshot of the code to make this all way easier for everyone.

Copied the code down and made sure I hd it right a dozen times, but it won’t work. What am I missing?

The "proper" way to do this achievement is to take note of a series of symbols you find when escaping Ward 16 during the game's prologue to use later on. However, this being a guide on the internet, you don't have to have that knowledge for yourself. Instead, check this section of the Youtube walkthrough and copy the symbols to turn the mirror into a teleporter straight into Ward 16, unlocking the achievement once you pass through to the other side.

To do this you need to get Captain Ford's card in the world of gentlemen. It is located near the second stone. After you take the flute and open the gate, there will be a fork. You need to go left to the lake, kill two opponents and pick up the key card. Then return to the very first location with elevators and computers and use it. After you unlock the door, walk in a straight line where the enemy will be. Kill him. There will be a mirror on one of the walls and three symbols to the right of it, remember them. Enter the mirror and exit in the Krell world right next to the teleport control panel. Enter the symbols that you saw a little earlier and enter the mirror again. The trophy is yours

You need to dial a combination from the real one on the panel from the fantasy world and go through the mirror.
