How to unlock the Born Gambler achievement in Neon Abyss - Definitive Guide

I just wanna clear this up, me and another speedrunner thought these were the doors that you spin the numbers on to unlock.

Its not. Eventually during upgraging you will unlock a RULE that makes these large machines appear. Sometimes in chests or in the Shops.
There is also some items that allow your grenades to spawn items and these can spawn from those too.

Just spin them 99 times. You can do them quite a few times before they blow up.

Is this rule in the 5th or 6th upgrade tree?

Nesmaster, I began to find them after the unlocking the Intersection Room. It's the second upgrade in level 2. When you find an Intersection Room, there's a chance to find a Roulette machine on one of the floors. How to win at it is still a mystery to me.

Yeah I've seen them there, but this is written like he unlocked it as a rule in the tree, like the egg machine or vending machine. I've seen the egg machine in the shop, but I'm on tree #4 and no rule for the roulette wheel yet.

(Edit) - This has now been patched and is now super easy to Acquire. Thankyou to team 17 for listening to the fans. 🏆👍



This is how i am currently doing it but be warned its grindy but is the fastest way IMO.

While going for the Roulette machine Achievement you can also work towards getting the all characters Achievement and Entering the Abyss 999 times Achievement.

This can be Unlocked without getting the Rule from the Upgrade tree. Once the intersection room is unlocked from upgrade tree 2 pick Lucas as you character and load up a run on easy press pause, options, gameplay and put auto aim on. This will make things alot easier and quicker. Now on level 1 keep going for intersection rooms. You are not guaranteed a roulette wheel in every intersection room and you are also not guaranteed an intersection room on level 1. You also have to pick the right path. I have noticed that the Roulette machine seems to spawn alot more on the bottom path of the intersection room.

This might sound crazy but trust me it works im halfway through getting the Roulette wheel Achievement with this method and i haven't unlocked the Roulette wheel rule.

When you find a Roulette machine now you need to loot every box and blow up every stone you can to find as many coins as possible for the Roulette machine. It costs 10 coins every go and blows up after 5+ uses. Now this is why Lucas is so important to these runs. Lucas is so OP on this game. You get unlimited mines and on easy can't hurt yourself with the mines so you get to loot basically everything.

after getting a few tries on the Roulette machine now its time to get to the boss. When you defeat the boss grab the Faith gem and then press pause. And go to Quick restart. When you press Quick restart mash cn_A as many times as you can .This makes the Achievement Counter go up 10 times quicker.

Grinding faith gems from bosses is essential to unlocking all chracters in the upgrade menu. It is absolutely crazy how many gems is needed to unlock skill tree 6 for the last chracter. Use your gems however you want in the skill trees but make sure you working towards the path of the chracter unlock. Once the chracter has been unlocked from each numbered upgrade tab keep using gems to unlock the next skill set. There is 6 in all which means there is 6 character's to unlock via using faith gems.

If you don't find an Roulette wheel on your run don't look for coins it would be pointless only look for coins if you find a Roulette wheel. And if you don't find a Roulette wheel on your run get to the boss ASAP beat him and keep going for the faith gem and doing the quick restart tactic.

So to put things into order....

1. Pick lucas as your starting Character
2. Pause, Options, Gameplay, Auto Aim ON.
3. Look for intersection room and Roulette Wheel
4. Loot Level one for as many coins as you can (only spend coins on Roulette wheel)
5. Beat boss get Faith gem.
6. Quick restart and button Mash cn_A
7. Rinse and repeat.

I hope everyone understands this guide this method has helped me out alot. Its grindy but hey it works and IMO is the fastest way to get all 3. Thanks for reading guys.

When you found one of this machine in one level, you can use it until it's broken. Then you can go back to the main menu and hit continue, you will spawn in same the level and the machine will be in same spot.

I have grouped all of these cumulative achievements together, because while you'll make progress towards most or all of them while working on everything else, you're unlikely to unlock some or any along the way. There is, thankfully, a pretty easy way to grind out these achievements that doesn't rely on continual RNG for run after run. Basically, play a run, and whenever you come to a floor that has whatever one you need to grind (such as if you find a fishing room, a piano room, a roulette wheel in a shop, etc. Utilize it as much as you can, exhausting all of your money, keys, trades, etc., until you're out. Then, do the Save Reload Exploit mentioned in the roadmap. This will start you back at the beginning of the floor with all your resources back, and the grind spots will be in the same locations. Head back to the rooms/wheels/chests/etc., and repeat. The achievement tracker will keep increasing each time, making it pretty quick to grind these out.

A couple other points to make:
 
  • If you're after a specific game room or two, such as just the fishing or piano rooms, you can go to your skill tree in the bar and turn off any other game rooms you may have unlocked, so that only the ones you want will spawn
  • The roulette machines mentioned in this achievement specifically are NOT the machines that block your entrance to game rooms on each floor. If you've gambled at all, you'd realize those are slot machines, not roulette wheels. The Roulette wheel is unlocked in the fourth skill tree, and is a bigger wheel with red and yellow sections on it. I highly recommend buying the skill right after it that makes the first play on the wheel free, allowing you to progress this achievement every time you find one without having to risk losing money
