How to unlock the Extra Careful achievement in Microsoft Treasure Hunt - Definitive Guide

---> You only need to not use any flags on level 11 itself. <---

So this game is essentially Minesweeper with an adventure. If you see a tile with a number in it (1, 2, 3, etc.) then there are that many traps adjacent to that tile with a maximum of 8 possible traps around one tile. If you right click on an un-mined tile then you place a flag saying that you think there might be a trap on that tile. You just need to go through level 11 without placing any flags. Just progress through the level slowly and carefully and it shouldn't be too difficult.

A couple tips and tricks:

-Using the map in this level doesn't count as placing a flag even though it marks the traps for you (confirmed by wanderux and JefeGator)
-No chording in this level (placing a flag and then double clicking) so just carefully dig through one tile at a time.
-If you have the respawn amulet and have to use it, the level doesn't change when it resets itself, so remember where those traps were.
-If you find the bonus level use that to refill your hearts if you are down to one. Whenever you come out of a bonus level your hearts are refilled.

Thanks for stopping by.

Using the map doesn't count against you even though it places flags on mines.

Dammit...unfortunately was at level 8 when I read this. Thought the way it was worded you couldn't flag for levels 1-11...

Recommend using the arrow keys to navigate where you move in the maze on Level 11. Got there (after constant freezing on the previous stage), then for some unfathomable reason, it interpreted a tap as a hold for flag, ruining the run for this achievement. Given all the other broken-ness of this game (I wager it's related to the heavy-handed advertising they're using now), anything you can do to help against the glitches is needed.

Just a little tip: you CAN use map tool. Just got an achievement with one used map.

My solution for the previous version of the game works in this one too. Use as many flags, maps and whatever else you like.

Once you enter level 12, don't place any flags and immediately walk into the nearest three traps to end the game. Achievement Unlocked!
