How to unlock the Not of sound mind achievement in Morkredd - Definitive Guide

Some people have noted that this achievement can be a little fiddly to unlock, and I did find this myself, which is particularly annoying on a game with no chapter select - if you somehow didn't properly activate all the chimes, you're looking at another complete re-run of the game to this point to try again. Yucksters.

The problem is, the game doesn’t indicate in any way whether you’ve “rung” the chime enough for it to count towards the achievement, so you have to basically give it your best attempt when you are going for it.

Additionally, as far as I can tell, you need to ring every subset of chimes within a set for it to count as being fully rung. For example in the first set, you’ll see 5 subsets of chimes within the entire chime set, I believe you need to trigger all of these 5 subsets (not necessarily within the one life) to count as that chime being rung.

Anyway, there are seven chimes that need to be activated for this achievement, and they are all in the Temple level. I'll list them below:

1. 60% Progress - A single chime to the right of a slug. This is to introduce the mechanics of the chime.

2, 3 and 4. 61% Progress - Shortly after the last chime you'll ascend some steps behind a slug and there are 3 sets of chimes at the top of these stairs. I tended to ring the set on the right hand side first, running through them from left to right to match the movement of the slug as he looks towards you. Continue with the same character into the middle set and try and ring all the chimes. You’ll probably die here, so on the next life (or if you are going for the no death achievement, once you’ve reloaded the save), go for the left set.

5. Immediately after the previous set after turning a corner, there is another long set of chimes in between two sets of stairs. This will probably take a few attempts to make sure you’ve rung all the subsets in this chime.

6 and 7. 69% Progress – Later, after collecting the second light crystal, you’ll come to a point where you must activate two eye light switches to open a door in front of you leading to a slug and the next 2 sets of chimes. These are smaller and easier to ring in one attempt.

The achievement should pop upon ringing that last chime. Good luck!

This achievement is total BS. I’ve done it 3 times now and still haven’t gotten it. The worst part is that once you go past the first section with chimes and the light slug, a random wall closes behind you so there’s no way and backtrack to get any you may have missed and since this stupid game doesn’t have a level select, you have to play from the start of the game again. angry

Edit: Finally got it on my 4th try. I think the issue is that when you follow the slug up the stairs, some of the chimes in the groups on the right and left are practically in the shadows so you can’t really see them and have to risk death to walk through them.

Just ring every subset of chimes within a set.
Do it multiple times just to be sure.
Doesn't matter if you die.

Worked for me on my first try.

It DOES matter if you're over 60 % into a no death run. It's near impossible to do both at the same time.

Great guide. When I got this achievement, I just died repeatedly to ensure that I hit each chime multiple times so I knew I didn’t miss any.

This would be absurd to try to do on a no death run. 0/10 do not recommend.

Got it on my first try, but here's the twist.

You can press the start button over and over again to be invincible in the shadow (while moving of course)

Here's a clip to show how it's done (Can also be used for deathless run)

Edit: the link should work now :)

I can confirm Vanillacake13's method (the video link doesn't work but it's not necessary). If you keep hammering the Start button while moving you don't die in the shadows. Not sure if you can die eventually but you can easily run through each chime a couple of times whilst in the slugs shadow. I did it on my No Death playthrough using this method.toast

I was being super paranoid. Spent about 30min running into all the chimes. Luckily it unlocked after the 7th set.

After trying to make sure I hit each chime 4-5 times on my no death run, I believe I can confirm it's not possible to get this ach, and not die at the same time. At least without that start button exploit. I hit each chime, but went back to the main menu when the slug's shadow killed me each time.

I think going back to the main menu without hitting a new checkpoint, voids the chimes you got. OK got it in my co-op run, so it does seem it's not possible to get this on a no death run.

I agree with EarthboundX. Also, if you are having a hard time seeing the sets of chimes near the shadows, just turn up the game brightness in settings.

This achievement wont unlock for me. On my second run (coop) I even did the invincible glitch and ran through every chime many times making sure I rung each piece of it and continued to next checkpoint with no deaths. Very dumb that you have to go through 70% of the game just to attempt this achievement again every time.

I had the same problem. On my second (dual controller) playthrough, I made sure to hit them all. Didn't unlock, so I immediately gave up the completion entirely. This game needs a chapter select.

Are you sure you hit the all the chimes on the left in the section where they are 3 sets of chimes right next to eachother?

The chimes set to the left has 4 sections, something that's hard to see since most of it will be in darkness.
