PC Gamer has published a gaming trivia quiz focused on achievement recognition, asking players to identify games based on exact achievement names and in-game descriptions.

The quiz contains 17 questions and gives players 12 minutes to complete it. Achievement descriptions are presented unedited, with no hints removed or goals simplified, making it a genuine test of gaming knowledge and logical deduction.

The quiz frames achievement design as a topic worth discussing. PC Gamer's editorial commentary notes that the best achievements encourage players to try features they would typically avoid, explore new strategies, or make unusual choices. The publication expresses frustration with repetitive grinding achievements, citing the example of using Shield Rush 100 times in Control as particularly tedious.

Players are invited to share their quiz results and discuss their favorite achievement hunts or most dreaded grinds in the community. PC Gamer also promotes its broader trivia collection, offering additional quizzes on gaming topics ranging from health bars and unusual in-game currencies to absurd patch notes.
