How to unlock the Arachnophobia achievement in Pinball FX3 - Definitive Guide

Unlike Pinball FX2, you only have to defeat all the spiders, there is no time limit. You do not even have to beat the mode (although if you've already hit all the spiders you have essentially finished anyway- you just have to hit the exit ramp. I got this without hitting the exit ramp).

To start, you need to begin the Arachnid Attack main mode. Hit all 3 of the flashing circular targets at the top of the table (no need to hit each individually, hitting any of the 3 will light up another one instead of needing to hit each specific one in FX2). Once this is done, make sure Arachnid Attack is flashing (you can change which one is flashing by hitting the bumpers on the left side. You just have to get a bit lucky. You could also just play through all modes until you get to the one you want). Now hit the flashing cellar sinkhole on the right side of the circlular stairway that raises up.

Once in the cellar, hit all 5 of the spiders twice. Each time you hit a spider, a second one replaces it after a few seconds. Once you have hit all 10 spiders, the achievement unlocks. You can choose to exit through the ramp and complete the mode or just let the ball drain.

Crapfacepalm No wonder none of these level specific achievements popped for me. Anyway, at least I know I wasnt doing anything wrong except for playing in the wrong gametype.

One thing to note, this doesn't seem to unlock in the challenge modes. I cleared Arachnid Attack in the 1 ball challenge, before doing it in a normal single player game, and it didn't unlock. I'm assuming the rest of the table achievements only unlock in the main single player mode.

Correct, you have to play in Single Player. It mentions that in the locked achievement description. Not sure if you can play in the 'new' Single Player with power ups but I've done all mine in Classic.

I unlocked the ant-man achievement in the new single player game mode so it doesn't have to be in classic mode.

Thanks. I assumed that either would work.

This wouldn't unlock for me under single player. I've done it twice now.

Step 1: Starting Arachnid Attack

In order to start any of the story missions you will have to free up the "Magical Cellar" sinkhole by hitting the 3 "Guardian Stones" in the center of the table. After all 3 targets are lit, the blue spinning disk in front of them will rise, opening up the sinkhole. Hitting the sinkhole will start the mission that is currently lit on the table. Hitting the bumpers will switch between the uncompleted missions listed on the table. For this trophy, you need to look for the Arachnid Attack mission (4th from the top). Once it's lit, hit the ball up the cellar and find yourself on a mini pinball table.


Step 2: Killing the Spiders

Spiders will quickly appear in front of all of the 5 ramps/orbits. In order to beat the mission, you will have to hit all 5 spiders twice and leave the cellar using the exit that's lit thereafter.

Keep in mind that the spiders can only be hit if the ramp/orbit it's hanging above is actually lit. Also remember that every spider will respawn once and it takes quite a bit of time for it to do so. It's best you go through your first set of 5 spiders entirely before you start killing your second set.

If all goes well, the trophy will pop up upon you hitting the 10th spider and won't don't actually have to exit the cellar and complete the mission for the trophy.

Note: If you failed to get all the spiders and missed the trophy, restart the game entirely or you won't be able to play the Arachnid Attack mission again until you've played though all the other missions.
