How to unlock the See, that wasn't so hard now, was it? achievement in Dead Cells - Definitive Guide

Fortunately, using custom seeds does not disable achievements. If you have unlocked the customization rune, then you can run a custom game using seed #883297 (as of Dec 2022). This seed has a rift in the opening level ("Prisoners' Quarters"). Thanks to GoyetteQC and Jimmie World for this one: "Just go down, there will be bomb dropping enemies. The rune is on the right, small ledge. Just where a bombardier stands."

To unlock the ability to use custom seeds, you'll need to acquire the rune by killing an elite archer or zombie that is in a room in the "Ramparts," near the beginning of the level. Once you have the option for "Custom Game" on the menu, you can enter a specific seed number in the second customization screen. You can change other settings as well, but be sure not to enable any setting that disables achievements (these are all indicated with a lock next to them).

Unfortunately, as noted by Fshguy and JHunz in the comments, the seeds apparently change along with each update. The original seed #804327 no longer generates a rift in the opening area, and now the rift in seed #000119 appears to have moved, then disappeared in the latest update. I will try to update this solution whenever someone notifies me that this doesn't work. Latest seed will be at the top of this guide, along with a date stating when it was reportedly working.

The map screenshot is no longer terribly helpful, but this should show you what you're looking for if you've never seen one. Note the faint glow at my character's feet, as well as the text letting me know I can use the rune.

Sadly, I think the seeds change on every update, so I don't think your seed is good for this anymore.

It looks like you're right. I tried that seed after I read your comment and the map has changed. There is no rift in Prisoner's Quarters, and I didn't see one in the Promenade either. I will make a new note in the solution.

Found a new one and updated the solution. Props to the Dead Cells subreddit, which is a great resource for stuff like this.

000119 doesn't work anymore. The map looks completely different.

Rumor has it one exists in seed #160171, in the Prisoner's Quarters as well as Toxic Sewers on 0BC. Try that.

Okay, forget 990047. The better seed is #792769, which has a challenge rift in Prisoner's Quarters (the very first area). If you go right as far as you can, then go up. From there go constantly left, taking an upward fork whenever possible. You'll come to an enemy right on top of a vine. Kill the enemy and you'll find they were standing more or less right on top of a challenge rift rune. Use the rune to make the rift appear.

Seed #794685. On the far left side of the map, behind a door that leads to a small alcove with nothing in it but the rune.

Goyette thank you I found it. Just go down, there will be bomb dropping enemies. The rune on the right small ledge. Just where a bombardier stands.

I tried doing with custom seeds 3 times and nothing. Maybe custom seed disable achievements now?

Okay, since Raptures Lost said it still worked I went looking. Having restarted with no custom options other than the seed number, the rift is now just to the right of its old position, at the bottom of the vine. I verified this on both 0 and 1 boss stem cells.

I don't have the game installed on my console any longer. However, I see a reddit post claiming that seed #990047 has challenge rifts on prison depths, toxic sewers, corrupted prison and high peak castle. They were playing on 4BC, but I think this still would translate to lower BC runs. Try the seed and let me know. If you confirm it and give a general idea of location in PD, I'll update the solution!

For this one you need to find a Challenge Rift, open it, and finish it. It has a 20% chance to spawn in a non-boss area, and will have a prompt when you run over it to interact. Use the seed from Puck Junkie to find it for sure, otherwise check the video if you need help seeing what it looks like. Hope it helps!

At some point in the game during a regular level you will see something like a tiny portal or a "tear". Press RB and you will open it and have the option to travel there. It is like any other set of rooms. If you reach the exit successfully you will unlock it (it is not that hard, just totally random the chances to see one)

The test can be activated if you have a teleportation rune, there will be secrets on the floor by holding open the portal to the test

Most likely, you won't sweat over this trophy. But for me, for example, this was the last trophy, and I didn’t know where to find this test. It turned out that you need to find a pebble in the ground (like an ordinary secret with food or money), having with you a rune of testing and teleportation. When you press R1, a portal will appear, there will be a mini-parkour in it, if you go through it, the trophy is yours. The chance of such a test spawning is 20% per location (precisely location, not the entire race).

The chance of such a cell appearing is 20 higher in base locations, not from the DLC. And in the first 3 from the top.

You will carefully explore the "dormant temple" location, a portal will open for you, go into it, there will be no enemies there, just a lot of traps, carefully run through and exit the portal.
