How to unlock the Castle Crasher achievement in Pit People - Definitive Guide

You will get this achievement as a part of the story missions. The first mission after all of the tutorials is to attack Helmitor's fortress, which you can do once you have 6 party members. It is a simple enough mission, with you attacking his fortress by trying to get to Helmitor by breaking down the fortress gates. Throughout the first part of the mission, you will be under attack by an enemy in a mortar thing, which fires an explosive attack at the end of your turn. Also, there are four enemy tents throughout the inside and outside of the fortress which will spawn more enemies every few turns if they are not destroyed. Once the second gate is destroyed, the second part of the mission starts, where you simply need to kill Helmitor and his remaining minions with no gimmicks. After you finish the first part of the mission, the achievement will pop.

Also, if you're like me and finished this mission before the achievement was added, you can either start a new file and skip the tutorial, which will put you right at where you need to be to start the mission, or you can finish the story, after which point the story quests will reset, allowing you to do the Helmitor mission (as well as all of the other ones) again for the achievement.

It's also possible to get this achievement after completing certain quests on the world map. I believe something counts as a Fortress when the mission has some kind of objective that requires you to breach a wall. Unfortunately I don't remember the name nor the world map of the quest (tried refinding it, without success), but it was during a mission that requires you to burst into an attraction park.

The method described above is undoubtedly much easier/faster though.

Just as added helpful note that I noticed . . .

This questline has two battles; the first is Helmitor's Fortress and the second takes place on his rocketship. The achievement pops immediately after the first battle is finished. As such, I was contemplating just forfeiting the second battle, but decided just to autobattle it.

To my surprise I watched Sofia recruit Helmitor with a cage that she had (he was the last enemy) and #Skwadgoals popped also (the achievement for recruiting an elite).

It was a pretty convenient place to pop this achievement as there are only 3 enemies in the fight with one being Helmitor (an elite).

I don't know if it matters, but this would have been on a save file that already completed the main story once.

This will be unlocked automatically during the "Helmitor's Fortress" mission during the story. If you're coming back to the game after its initial Game Preview release, you will have already done this mission. However, all the story quests reset once you finish the campaign, so you can either wait until then, or find a Fortress side-quest on the world map. Any battle where you need to break down doors to get to the boss will count for this.
