How to unlock the Servant of the Gods achievement in The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 - Definitive Guide
To progress the story, you need to satisfy three of the four gods. The god of Story-Telling is easily answered and the god of Riddles can be answered without leaving the cave.
After you collect the necessary information to address the other two gods (get some jokes for the god of Jokes and a glockenspiel for the god of Music), you will offer one of them your solution and the story interjects a cut scene and forwards you toward the Temple.
Before proceeding to the Temple, turn around and return to the gods, satisfying the request of the final god.
For answering all four, you are awarded a crown of laurel leaves. It could have been coincidental timing, but the achievement didn't pop for me until I put the crown on.
the god of storytelling simply requires you to tell a story. you can choose any dialogue selections to make a successful story.
the god of riddles wants you to ask an unanswerable question. you must also answer his riddles first. the answers are Mountain, Teeth, Wind, and Time. you can ask your riddles in any order, and the 4th one will always be the correct one to gain his favor. (it's a paradoxical question, like "can you ask a question even you cannot answer?")
the god of humor wants a joke, and the god of the arts wants a musical instrument. after talking to them, make sure you grabbed the ring, then climb back out of the hole. talk to timmy and ethel, and ask them about jokes, then go through the pipe near ethel to return to the school. interact with the doll to get the headmaster's attention, who leaves after a conversation. now full size, take the glockenspiel, and other items and head down to ivo. give her the items and ask about jokes. she doesn't know any, but you can switch to her and ask the zombie and the two-headed ogre for a joke, then tell them to wilbur. now return to the gods.
give the glockenspiel to the god of the arts, and tell the god of humor the 4 jokes you learned, now tell him one of his own jokes. they will explain the secret of the lake after the 3rd task, but walk back to the gods and finish before you cross it. the first time you do, the gods will stop accepting favors.
thankfully, if you make a mistake, you are given the option to restart the chapter you are currently on. i thought i was going to have to start from the beginning, but when i pressed new game, i could choose chapter 1 or chapter 3 (but oddly not chapter 2).
The God of Arts - there's a glockenspeil in the Headmaster's office after it's been turned pink. Play it to her.
The God of Jokes - As Wilbur, ask Timmy and Ethel for a joke. Ask Ivo to look for jokes, and get Ivo to ask Gulliver and Blout for more. Relay them to Wilbur, then tell the God all four of them. He won't laugh, but you'll then have the option to tell him one of his own jokes, which works.
The God of Story - Pretty simple, just make up a story from the options available to you.
The God of Riddles - Answer his riddles. Ask him any question from the options in-between - it doesn't matter which.
1) What has roots nobody can see, towers beyond the tallest tree, never grows to get this high but reaches up towards the sky? A mountain.
2). Thirty white horses on a red hill, first they champ and they stamp, then they stand still. Teeth.
3). Voiceless it cries, wingless flutters, toothless bites, mouthless mutters. Wind.
4). Something that consumes us all: from the mighty to the small. Eats into iron and grind down stone, dulls every sword, breaks every throne. Defeats kings, turns their castles to dust, waits for no man, for pass it must. Time.
Lastly, ask him 'Can you think up a question that's so difficult that you are not able to answer it?'
During Chapter 3 Wilbur is required to solve some tasks to proceed the story. As mentioned in the trophy description, there are 4 gods and so there are 4 tasks. However, the story only requires 3 of these tasks to be completed. This trophy is missable in that 4th task is not required to be completed, the game automatically moves you along in the story, and you could easily forget about the last task. Complete the 4th task before leaving this area of the game. It does not matter which order you complete the tasks. Step-By-Step: LINK
Chapter 3: This is a missable achievement and must be obtained before Wilbur crosses the lake to the temple. In order to progress through the story, Wilbur must solve three out of four tasks assigned to him by gods. This achievement unlocks when Wilbur completes ALL four tasks and receives the Laurel Wreath. Be careful as it is easy to forget to do the last task.
