How to unlock the Risky Revolution achievement in Shantae: Half-Genie Hero - Definitive Guide

I believe there are 4 win screens, they appear after the end credits.

1. Complete the game
2. Complete the game with 100%
3. Complete the game with 100% under a 2 hours
4. Complete the game under 1.5 hours

I managed to get the first 2, I finished the game in just over 2 hours.
I did another 100% run in just over an hour and a half and unlocked the third ending and then a 75% run straight after finishing at just over an hour and unlocked thee forth, so I can confirm these times.

Comment your times and what screens you unlocked :).

I've finished it in 1h12 min at 100% so the 4 screens can be unlocked at the same time !

Nice work, pause menu must add to the time I feel like I did my run fairly quick.
There was one dark magic I struggled to find in the castle though.

Playing it on PS4. I am either missing #3 or #4. Not sure if I made the 100% in the designated time. And I assumed that there must be an any% speedrun requirement.

Thanks for the confirmed times though. :)

I can confirm that time on the pause menu does not add to the timer. I looked at my time on the main menu, continued my game, went into a level, paused the game and stayed there for several minutes, left the level and saved, and returned to the main menu. I was on the pause screen for about 3 minutes but my time didn't go up at all.

The 4 win screens are awarded for
- Beating the game
- Beating the game in 90 minutes
- Beating the game 100%
- Beating the game 100% in 2 hours.

It's difficult to get 100% in 90 minutes, so this guide targets Any% first, with mop-up afterwards.

Background info

1. Main Street

Intermission: Hypno Baron's Castle, stage 1

2. Cape Crustacean

3. Tassel Town

4. Mermaid Falls

5. Hypno Baron's Castle

6. Main Street revisited
Save your game, quit out, and copy your entire save file.

Now you can use one of your files to complete the game Any% for two win screens, and the other to complete it 100% for the other two.

To complete the Any% run, head to stage 6, Risky's Hideout, and play through it.

For mop-up, we will revist Mermaid Falls, Tassel Town, and Cape Crustacean, to get the Dark Crystal chests we missed earlier.

7. Mermaid Falls: mop-up

8. Tassel Town: mop-up

9. Cape Crustacean: mop-up

You should now have 15 Genie Crystals, and 3 stars in every possible upgrade. If that's the case, head to Risky's Hideout and finish the game. If you're missing anything, check the map to see which level it's in.

The win screens appear (and the achievement pops) after the credits.

The 4 win screens are:

- Complete the Pirate Queen's Quest
- Complete under 1 hour, 30 minutes
- Complete at 100% (all Dark Magic)
- Complete at 100% under 2 hours

I followed this video to get 100% (video is not mine, all credit goes to them!):

Once they obtained the last Genie Crystal (around 1:37), I went straight to the end and finished the game (obtaining the first two win screens). After which, you can reload your save just before the final boss fight, use the Pirate Flare to return to the cabin and pick up the last few Dark Magic orbs, then return to the boss fight and defeat them again for the last two win screens (you don't need to complete the first 2 sections of the final area again).

Worked like a charm. Although if you die you might wanna back out to main menu and reload your save. Continuing after a death will add to your time. I did this and finished in 1h 22 minutes on my speedrun so there is not that much room for messing around

Video is real clumsy. The player doing it did a lot of mistakes that should be avoided to save time. Still works just fine, but don't make too many mistakes (like falling off the map) or you'll miss the time. Any% 1h24, 100% 1h31. With better planning I'm sure you could get 100% in the any% time but that might be tight.

(Missable)

You must obtain all 4 win screens for Pirate Queen’s Quest. The win screens are different versions of a wallpaper of Risky Boots earned after beating the game and each one has a unique requirement.

The Win Screens and there requirements are:

Complete the game.



Beat the game with a 100% completion rate



Beat the game in 1 hour and 30 minutes



Beat the game in 2 hours with 100% completion

Note you do not have to do all of these concurrently. You can get one win screen and go back for the others. For example, I beat the game once at 1:18:26 with 81%, reloaded my save, escaped the final stage using the Pirate’s Barrel, then went back to get all the collectibles, beating the game with 100% at just over 1:30, but fulfilling all the other requirements.

If you can’t do everything in one playthrough, it’s not recommended to do the speed run first, unless you’re really confident. It’s best to learn the game before attempting the speed run.

Skip all cut scenes when you can and try to minimize repetitive trips to stages. Get in, get what you need, then get out. Also try to save a stash of as many healing items as you can for bosses, try not to use them so you don’t have to farm for them later.
