By Dillon Skiffington on August 24, 2012@Kamikaze8

Lionhead’s venture into Kinect is a little over a month away and Xbox360Achievments has posted the official list of achievments that will be shipping with the title. For all you Gamerscore lovers out there, expect to have to tackle 50 different challenges.

In their usual style, the developers have filled the title and descriptions with references to games, memes, and more.

Pest Control (10 points)
Ten stingers in five seconds. How long for the other 600,000?
Hobbe Juggler (10 points)
You juggled a hobbe. A career in the circus awaits. A pretty odd circus, admittedly.
Boom-erang (10 points)
You killed a hobbe with his own bomb. ‘Tis the sport to have the enginer hoist with his own petar.
The Whites of Their Eyes (10 points)
You got cosy with a balverine. You must have nerves of steel — and no working olfactory system.
Return of the Black Knight (10 points)
You dismantled a hollow man. It’s just a (rotting) flesh-wound!
Trollololol (20 points)
You emerged unscathed from a troll fight. Problem?
B-B-Q (10 points)
Roast chicken is the best smell in the world. Unless you’re a chicken.
Great Balls of Fire (10 points)
You killed three enemies with one Fireball. Goodness gracious.
Shardly a Problem (10 points)
You cast Shards with utmost precision. For your next trick, spear an apple off Seren’s head.
Five Billion Candle Power (10 points)
You burned the Corruption from three creatures with one spell. Time to break out the factor 40.
Mind Your Manas (20 points)
You dished out a veritable smorgasbord of spell power. Delicious.
Toasty (10 points)
Burning through the sky at 200 degrees. That’s why they call him Mr. Pushed-in-the-Lava.
Bam! (20 points)
There it is! You killed ten creatures with explosive barrels.
Flail (20 points)
You killed 500 enemies. The Grim Reaper loves round numbers.
Epic Flail (40 points)
1,000 kills! That’s a lot of killing. You should have a lie down. And a shower.
Fore! (10 points)
You killed three enemies with thrown objects. Down in front!
Reflectology (20 points)
You killed 15 enemies with their own attacks. Reflect on your progress, and feel proud.
Fear of Flying (30 points)
You killed 20 enemies in midair. Flying’s fine – it’s landing that hurts. Also, the magic spells.
Hard Shoulder (10 points)
You dealt with a travelling enemy by making it crash and die. Ben Hur would be proud.
Roadkill (10 points)
You ran down an enemy with your cart. Consider investing in a plough.
Cartmageddon (20 points)
A good driver keeps their hands on the reins at all times, apart from when they’re killing things.
Pimp My Cart (5 points)
Yo Gabe, we heard you like Heroes so we hung a Hero from your cart so you can Hero while you Hero.
Wheeee! (5 points)
You thrust your arms in the air during the minecart ride. Souvenir photo available in the gift shop.
I Used to Be an Adventurer (10 points)
Then I took an arrow to the horse. She’s all better now, though.
Happy Camper (20 points)
You tried your hand at all camp activities. Way to go, cowboy.
Why the Long Face? (10 points)
You healed ten wounds on Seren. If she walked into a bar and bruised herself, you’d heal that too.
Long Sustained Attacks (30 points)
You fully upgraded one of your spells. You’ll be able to bring down anything now.
Sparrow (10 points)
You purchased five upgrades. Your Journey has begun.
Chicken Chaser (20 points)
You purchased ten upgrades. Your powers are beginning to soar. Soar like a chicken.
Hero (30 points)
You purchased 15 upgrades. Truly, you are a Hero.
For Every Chest, a Consequence (30 points)
You opened 15 chests. Now on to the greater mystery: Whose stuff have you been stealing?
Test Your Medal (10 points)
You earned your first Medal in Arcade Mode.
Heavy Medal (20 points)
You earned a Bronze Medal in every Arcade Mode challenge.
Pedal to the Medal (40 points)
You earned a Silver Medal in every Arcade Mode challenge.

No Claims Bonus (20 points)
You completed The Last Stand without taking any damage.
Off the Chain (20 points)
You achieved a kill chain of 40 during Arcade Mode.
If I Only Had a Brain (30 points)
You whiled away the hours, conferring with the flowers. And exploding scarecrows’ heads.
The Open Road (20 points)
Your story has begun, but where will the road lead you?
Saved by the Sun (20 points)
You escaped the Devourer… for now.
In the Palm of Your Hand (20 points)
The power of the gauntlets is now yours, but so is their burden.
Footloose (20 points)
You rescued Fergus from a spot of Hobbe bother. Your reward? Singing and beans.
Shoo! (20 points)
You made it to the barn and saw off the White Balverine (with a little help from your friends).
Off the Menu (20 points)
The Devourer has been defeated, and Fergus is at rest. There’s no turning back now, Hero.
Going Underground (20 points)
You made it out of Bladebarrow. Most don’t.
Alas, Poor Nodsy! (20 points)
You laid to rest the spirits of a platoon of morons. They’re another dimension’s problem now.
A Job for Life (10 points)
You destroyed a man’s livelihood and smashed something up while you were at it. You’re a true Hero.
Mind over Matter (20 points)
The Temptress is no more. Or was it all just a dream?
The Long Road Home (20 points)
You finally caught up with Katlan. It’s you who’s needed at the front of the convoy now.
Don’t Stop Believing (100 points)
You have completed your Journey. The Spire is no more, and a new dawn awaits Albion.

What do you think? This is a pretty good example of how to do achievements right, and yes, we’re looking at you Avatar: The Last Airbender.

Dillon has been writing for almost half a decade now and has slowly worked himself up the ladder. At one point he single-handedly covered PAX East and E3. (Yeah, he's kind of awesome.) The staff might still consider him a baby, but you can find him and his witty sarcasm on Twitter @Kamikaze8.
