How to unlock the Times Ten achievement in Tentacles: Enter the Mind - Definitive Guide
1) Grab coins until you eventually reach the 10x multiplier. If you are hit, your multiplier will reset. Caution would be advisable as a result, but you need to move somewhat briskly as if you are not collecting coins your multiplier continuously falls
2) Buy gear upgrades that give a boost to your multiplier. I wasn't too great with this game early on and having the boost to my starting multiplier really assisted. I started with a 7x multiplier when I eventually got this. (I'm not sure if you could just equip three +3 coin multipliers in your gear to get this achievement as well, but that will take a considerably longer time to save up the gold required to buy the necessary gear.)
It will be easier to get this early on since as you proceed there will be more enemies that are more skilled/stronger, but I was able to get this during Layer 9 (Guilt).
Body - Butterfly Tie +3 Coin Multiplier - 16,000
Eye - Blue Monster +3 Coin Multiplier - 36,000
Trail - Rainbow +3 Coin Multiplier - 30,000
This give you both achievements as soon as you load up ANY layer as you'll already have a x10 multiplier. Also, you should buy the Rainbow trail anyway as it's required for this achievement:
One final tip is that once you've unlocked some layers you have the option to select different layers when you are at the menu. Every time to select a different layer the shop offers you one item at a discount. It appears to be completely random but just by switching back and forth between layers you could potentially get one of the above items for around a 20%-30% discount.
The multiplier in this game starts out at 1 and increases as you eat eyes and collect coins. If you get hit, the multiplier will drop to it's base value. If you don't have this achievement by the end of the game, buy and equip items that increase the coin multiplier. You have four gear slots to work with and if you choose three items which increase the multiplier value by 3, you can have a starting multiplier value of 9. It will be a full 9 multiplier so after eating an eye or two or collecting a few coins you will be at a 10 multiplier.
COMPLETED CLOUD SAVE FROM WINDOWS 8
If you have completed the Windows 8 version of this game and have a cloud save from doing so, your progress/equipment carries over, meaning that you can select any layer you want and play with any equipment you bought. Additionally, you will have any excess money/revive tokens you accumulated along with the hammers and eggs you didn't use yet. No achievements will auto-unlock unless you already have equipment that meets the requirements for the multiplier achievements or Fabulous achievement currently equipped.
This is what I consider to be the most efficient way to complete this version of the game with your already completed cloud save from Windows 8.
1) Equip 3-4 pieces of equipment that have 3x coin multipliers. Upon starting a layer, the achievements "Eight Is Great" and "Times Ten" will unlock.
2) Equip the Rainbow Trail and Pink Eye. Once you do that, the "Fabulous" achievement will unlock.
3) Play in the Infin-ID layer and get the easy achievements out of the way. During your time here try to get a black egg and kill a Ramstein to get the "Black Magic" and "Bullfighter" achievements.
4) Switch to the Regret layer and re-do it to get the "No Regrets" achievement. During this step you can also find a purple egg for the "Purple Prize" achievement.
5) Switch to the Libido layer and re-do it to get the "Freudian" achievement.
6) Mop up any achievements you don't yet have in the early layers. You only have to pick up 1 tombstone for the "Undertaker" achievement to unlock.
