How to unlock the Objective Master achievement in Trivial Pursuit - Definitive Guide
There are 20 objectives to get when playing Clear The Board. You'll need to get all of them for this achievement. To check which ones you've got, go to Options on the main menu then View Profile and choose the Objectives tab.
The 20 objectives are: -
1. All Cleared - clear the board.
2. Personal Best - beat your previous set time.
3. Quick As A Flash - clear the board in under 10 minutes.
4. Category Expert - get a 5x multiplier.
5. Category Master - get a 10x multiplier.
6. Trivia Expert - get a 5x multiplier in every category.
7. Trivia Master - get a 10x multiplier in every category.
8. Know A Bit - answer 5 questions correctly in a row.
9. Know A Lot - answer 10 questions correctly in a row.
10. Know It All - answer 15 questions correctly in a row.
11. Scientifically Proven - clear all Science questions with at least a 5x multiplier.
12. Learning From The Past - clear all History questions with at least a 5x multiplier.
13. Been There Answered That - clear all Geography questions with at least a 5x multiplier.
14. Standing Ovation - clear all Entertainment questions with at least a 5x multiplier.
15. Culture Vulture - clear all Art & Lit questions with at least a 5x multiplier.
16. Crowd Goes Wild - clear all Sports & Leisure questions with at least a 5x multiplier.
17. In Pursuit Of Perfection - clear the board without giving an incorrect answer.
18. Straight To The Point - clear the board with no multipliers on any Wedge HQs.
19. No Pressure - answer the final bonus question on your first attempt.
20. Nothing Trivial About This - get a 10x multiplier on all categories and answer the final bonus question on your first attempt.
To make the last one a bit easier, cheat. Answer the first question correctly (not a wedge question though) then turn Autosave off. Proceed to get the next 66 questions wrong or as often as you can (11 for each colour) and make a note of each correct answer. Then exit to the dashboard, re-start the game, select 'Continue'. Turn off the autosave again just incase you make a mistake. The game will carry on from after you got the first question right but this time you'll have all the answers as the questions for each colour will remain in the same order. Don't answer any wedge questions until they are all on 10x. Then answer the final question to finish.

AWESOME tip, thanks so much for this.
Worst part was that I ended up having to do it twice, as for some reason my saved objectives somehow got reset.

Another tip would be NOT to get an incredibly high score or an incredibly fast time on your first go as you need to beat your personal best at some stage. Don't make the same mistake I did!

When going for this achievement, you should also be going for the following achievements:
These 4 should be your last 4 achievements left in the game. If they are not, make sure you get the other achievements first or it will just be a pain!
Once you're at this stage, you have two options:
1) Like many have mentioned, if you do not have the save feature on but you have saved at least once in the game and gotten all questions correct up until that point, simply record the answers (don't worry about getting them wrong), stop short of the end, and quit to dashboard. When you load up the game again, you'll be able to play through answering all the same answers you just saw.
2) My personal technique which took 25% of the time was to have my laptop or computer near me and start the game up. Make sure the autosave feature is turned on. While playing, you can look up answers on your laptop or computer to the ones you don't know. If you need more time, unplug your controller or pop the batteries out. Worst comes to worst, you get a question wrong... simply press the power button on the xbox as fast as you can. Chances are, you can look up the answer before the timer runs down. You won't have to play through twice, either, and your time is only wasted on a few power-downs... maybe 5 tops, if you are just that bad at using google.
Hope this helps! If you have any questions, just let me know!
