How to unlock the Shrewd sleuth achievement in Dead Cells - Definitive Guide

Extremely easy achievement and you can get this within 15 seconds of starting the game!

At the start when you spawn into the game (In the starting chambers), simply run left, jump up against the wall, then roll into the secret place and obtain a blueprint too!

EDIT: Since release the game has been updated, and now it's one of many starts. If you don't get the same start as me, simply press start and restart until you get it.

I've added a video below for visual reference:

It only works as you've stated if you get that starting area. Didn't get your starting chambers until my third life.

You need to have the spawn that has a little ledge on the wall. Every time you respawn, it slightly changes the layout of the room. You can respawn by pressing start, moving the cursor to 'Restart', and pressing 'A' twice. It took me 3 respawns until I got the room with the little grey ledges on the wall, near the giant skeleton in the background. My secret room was up two ledges (two double jumps), and then roll left ( press B and hold left) twice. I picked up the hidden blueprint, but the achievement didn't pop until I left the secret area, and went back in again and jumped around.

If you have problems with this, the location "Path of the Doomed" as soon as you go there, there will be a ledge above you, jump up and there will be a door there, it is considered a secret.
And if you have already found the “Spider” rune, then at the top if you run to the top before the “melted” one, there will be another secret zone.

There is a lot throughout the game, but on the Path of the Doomed there is always at the beginning of the location, there are 2 secret rooms, they are located in a sheer wall at the beginning of the level, the first one can be reached without any problems, in the 2nd one finds an interesting drawing and to get it you need to have the Spider rune and run along the steep wall using a jump and continue running vertically until you reach the beginning of the spikes, there will be a second room
