XBOX 360 ACHIEVEMENTS LIST & GUIDE

Earn the Achievement to get the corresponding amount of GamerPoints added to your GamerScore.

1. Welcome to the Caribbean! (12G) – Complete Port Royal. — Port Royal is the opening stage of the game, thus this level should be very easy for you to get through. If you played the demo, then you will be very familiar with this level and it should be even easier for you to go through. Beat it and you’ll earn this “Welcome to the Caribbean!” Achievement!

2. Hello, Poppet! (15G) – Unlock all Elizabeth characters (Single Player Only). — Like with all of the additional characters in the Lego games, you can unlock the Elizabeth characters by playing through the game, collecting enough Studs, and purchasing them or unlocking them simply by completing the levels of the game. Unlock all of the Elizabeth characters to earn yourself this 15G “Hello, Poppet!” Achievement. And of course, “Hello, Poppet” is a quote from the first “Curse of the Black Pearl” film!

Here is a video of that famous scene and the quote, “Hello, Poppet!”.

3. The Green Flash (15G) – Watch a sunset. — This is most likely a story Achievement that you’ll get as you play through the game. A “Green Flash” is a reference to the third film, At World’s End, and refers to the dead world returning to that of the living. A “Green Flash” in the real world is an interesting phenomena where you can see green (or sometimes blue) light appear above or below a setting or rising sun. Once the sunset in the game has been viewed, you’ll earn 15G and this “The Green Flash” Achievement.

4. You May Throw My Hat (40G) – Collect all the red hats (Single Player Only). — Note that Red Hats replace the “Red Bricks” seen in the previous Lego games. Collecting all of them will net you this 40G “You May Throw My Hat” Achievement.

5. A Weather Eye On the Horizon (15G) – Use a spyglass. — A spyglass is a small portable telescope, often used by Pirates. Use one and you’ll earn this “A Weather Eye on the Horizon” Achievement worth 15G.

6. More What You’d Call Guidelines (15G) – Complete the Brethren Court. — Simply beat the Brethren Court stage and you’ll earn 15G and this “More What You’d Call Guidelines” Achievement.

7. A Pirate’s Life For Me (15G) – Test any custom character. — When you change your characters (press the Y button on Xbox 360 or Triangle on PS3) you will notice that the last line last few to the right will be labelled Custom A, B, C, etc. These won’t have a character picture on them. Select Custom A for example, and walk a few steps forwards to unlock the achievement/trophy. So design a Pirates of the Caribbean-themed Minifig of your own, and try them out to earn 15G and this “A Pirate’s Life For Me” Achievement.

8. The Worst Pirate I’ve Ever Seen (15G) – Complete Port Royal in Story with zero studs. — This Achievement can be easily done because it is, thankfully, during the opening level of the game. Try not to collect any Studs as you run through it. If you have some by the end, you can purposefully walk off the edge which will make you lose Studs until you are back down to zero. You will trigger the end of the level by using the steering wheel, so make sure you have zero Studs when you do so. If done successfully you’ll net yourself 15G and this “The Worst Pirate I’ve Ever Seen” Achievement, a quote from the first movie!

9. The Brethren Court (25G) – Unlock all the Pirate Lord characters (Single Player Only). — Additional characters can typically be earned by collecting enough Lego Studs to purchase them or you can unlock them by simply playing through the game. Find all of the Pirate Lord characters and get them unlocked to earn 25G and this “The Brethren Court” Achievement.

10. The Best Pirate I’ve Ever Seen (15G) – Complete Port Royal in Story without dying. — On the opening level, you must beat the level without dying. Not difficult since it is the opener. Its not been confirmed if you can get this Achievement by using an Invincibility Cheat or not. Like the description says you must do it in Story Mode. Do so successfully and you’ll earn this “The Best Pirate I’ve Ever Seen” Achievement for 15G. This is also a quote from Curse of the Black Pearl!

11. On Stranger Tides (20G) – Complete the Film 4 story. — To unlock this “On Stranger Tides” Achivement worth 20G, you must complete all of the levels for the fourth and newest film, “On Stranger Tides”, once you beat them all you should earn this Achievement. It doesn’t matter how you beat them, you can do it in Single Player or Cooperative mode, and use cheats or not use cheats and still earn this Achievement.

12. Take What You Can (65G) – Collect all Gold bricks (Single Player Only). — Gold Bricks are deviously hidden throughout every level of Lego Pirates of the Caribbean: The Video Game.

That includes all of the Red Hats, Gold Bricks and Minikits, unlocked each and every playable character, and more. Doing so will net you a celebration-worthy 100G and this “Now Bring Me That Horizon” Achievement! This quote is also a line from the first flim, and is one of the last things Captain Jack Sparrow says at the end of Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.

– Thanks for the tips to Bryanbroessel, Anlonganecker & Guest.

24. There’s The Jack I Know (25G) – Get True Pirate in all levels (Single Player Only). — In order to achieve “True Pirate” status you must collect a very large amount of Studs during the level. Do so successfully by the end of every stage in the game and you will earn 25G and this “There’s The Jack I Know” Achievement. Use Multipliers to make this feat go even faster!

25. Aye-Aye, Captain! (15G) – Play a level in co-op. — Get a very easy 15G for this “Aye-Aye, Captain!” for playing a game with a friend via the local cooperative drop-in, drop-out play. Although it is unclear if you will still get the Achievement by dropping in and out with a buddy or if you have to start a level with co-op from the beginning.

26. You’re Off the Edge of the Map (15G) – Highlight the secret 6th point on all 4 level select maps (Single Player Only).

27. Hello, Beastie (25G) – Get eaten by the Kraken 10 times. — Once again, get rewarded for dying! 😀 Let the Kraken eat you ten times and you will eanr this 25G “Hello, Beastie” Achievement.

28. Fire! (15G) – Fire 100 cannonballs. — For this Achievement, you can either stand there and keep shooting a Cannonball or keep playing the level over again, or you can play all the way through the game, and then get the Achievement as you are running through the levels again to clear them 100%. Do so successfully and you’ll net yourself 15G and this “Fire!” Achievement.

29. Fight to the Bitter End! (20G) – Defeat 100 enemies. — As with the above Achievement, you will easily and eventually earn this “Fight to the Bitter End!” 20G Achievement by simply playing through the game, as you will defeat many enemies along the way. Alternatively you can just stand there and keep replaying a level and fighting every enemy until you reach one hundred. But where is the fun in that?!

30. Five Lashes Be Owed (15G) – As Jimmy Legs, whip Will Turner 5 times. — To earn this 15G “Five Lashes Be Owed” Achievement, simply select Jimmy Legs as your primary character and Will Turner as your secondary, and Whip him.

31. Hoist the Colours! (50G) – Sail all the minikits in the hub. — You must find each and every Minkit in the game, there are 10 hidden in each level, in order to earn the 50G from this “Hoist the Colours!” Achievement.

32. Parley! (25G) – Unlock all characters (Single Player Only). — This 25G Achievement for “Parley!” comes from the infamous follow-up line in the first Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl scene directly after “Hello, Poppet!” when the Pirates are about to capture Elizabeth. The pirate code of conduct in treating enemies, and the meaning of the word “parley” as a discussion between enemies, is a code wherein the captive gets to speak with the Captain. In Lego Pirates of the Caribbean, you will earn this word as an Achievement by unlocking all of the secret characters in the game. This can be done by playing through the game, or by purchasing additional characters with Studs you’ve collected. You also must create your own character and use them at least once before this Achievement will activate.

33. What Do You Want Most? (25G) – In any level use only the compass to find all it’s secrets in one go, alone. — Jack Sparrow has the ability to locate hidden secrets by using his compass. Apparently this 25G Achievement for “What Do You Want Most?” has you finding all of the secrets in a level by exclusively playing as Jack (without switching characters it sounds like…) and you possibly must obtain this Achievement in single-player mode and not co-op.
The easiest level to get “What Do You Want Most?” is “A Touch of Destiny”. All of the items needed to be found using Jack’s compass are found in this level without the need to go back and play the level in freeplay mode.

34. You Filthy, Slimy, Mangy Cur! (15G) – Complete all the Guard Dog levels. — This hilariously named Achievement is a quote from the first film, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl and is worth 15G. In order to get the “You Filthy, Slimy, Mangy Cur!” Achievement, you must beat all of the Guard Dog levels as stated.

35. Try Wearing A Corset (15G) – Do 5 lady backflips in a row. — This Achievement is simple, as the description states, simply do a backflip with a female character (who are more agile than men and can jump higher) five times in a row and you’ll earn this “Try Wearing A Corset” Achievement worth 15G. Make sure you have enough space to continuously backflip.

36. Pieces Of Eight (88G) – Reach 888,888,888 studs. — This Achievement has you earning exactly 888,888,888 MILLION Lego Studs! That’s one heck of a lot of Lego Studs! Although it may seem like it’d literally take you years to reach that amount, in reality it won’t because you can use multipliers to infinitely increase the amount of Studs you collect when going through a level. One thing you may want to do is wait until you finish the entire game first, that will ensure that you have all multipliers unlocked, and it will also give you the chance to earn a ton of Studs legitimately. You can also cheat your way to victory! Once you’re Stud counter has reached the eight hundred eighty eight million mark you will earn this Achievement for “Pieces of Eight”, sadly though its only worth… you guessed it, Eight GamerPoints! (er, GamerScore Points, I like to just say “GamerPoints” cause it sounds better to me!)

37. Did Everybody See That? (20G) – High dive into the Maelstrom. — Not exactly sure what this Achievement entails, we’ll update once we find out. Either way it’s a famous quote, “Did everybody see that? Cause I’m not doing it again!” 😀 Accomplish this and you’ll earn 20G and the “Did Everybody See That?” Achievement.

38. Wind In Your Sails! (15G) – Hit a flying parrot on Smuggler’s Den. — True to the films, if you can hit a flying Parrot bird on the Smuggler’s Den stage you will earn 15G and this “Wind In Your Sails” Achievement.

39. And Really Bad Eggs (25G) – Play as all the Extra Toggle characters. — You must unlock all of the characters in the game, including the Toggle characters, to earn this Achievement. We’ll update this description to let you know how its done as soon as we find out. Do it successfully and you’ll earn 25G and this “And Really Bad Eggs” Achievement.

40. Savvy? (15G) – Unlock all the Jack Sparrow characters (Single Player Only). — You can unlock characters by either collecting enough Lego Studs to purchase them, or by simply playing through the game. As the description says, unlock all of the “Jack Sparrow” characters and you’ll earn this 15G “Savvy?” Achievement.
