How to unlock the Short Stack achievement in Costume Quest - Definitive Guide

South of the 2nd elder you will find a house with some bushes by the ledge. When you walk over to the ledge Everett says he wishes he had a satellite map of the area. This is a hint to use the Eyeball Costumes' exploration ability. Pulling the camera back it will make plain a path between 2 bushes on the right.

Go down the path and fall down to the platform below. Go into the cave. The achievement will pop then. Inside the cave are 2 characters from https://www.trueachievements.com/Stacking-xbox-360.htm, the next Double Fine game.

Correct, but it is easier to see when you use the eyeball costume. This is pretty much it's only real use in the module.

Just an FYI, you don't need the eyeball costume to get through the bushes. The path exists if you use the power or not.

Hey there's nothing wrong with a little self promotion because that's the reason that this trophy is in the game. To get this trophy you'll need to find Charlie who just so happens is a character in Double Fine's next PSN project. Short Stack can be found in one of the many caves that are all throughout Repugia. This cave however can only be entered through one entrance and it's hidden well if you don't know where to look.

The cave entrance is just south of the area where you talk to the Trowbog Elder. Go down the wooden walkway and jump over the 2 ramps that go over the fence in the area. You'll know you're in the right spot when Everett makes a comment about his peripheral vision or viewing the area from a satellite. He's implying that you should use the new eye costume's ability to see from a zoomed out view. If you use this ability you will clearly see the platform on the side of the cliff. If you don't feel like using the ability then simply walk between the two big cacti that cover up a broken part in the fence and you'll fall right on the platform. Enter the cave and Charlie is straight ahead next to the mine car. Talk to him and you'll receive the trophy.
