How to Unlock Pumpkin

  1. Select Roberto. The achievement requirement is character-specific.
  2. Start Graveyard. Turn on the in-game object or item counter before the run so missed pumpkins are visible.
  3. Sweep the map in lanes. Circle the perimeter, then clear the central lanes instead of wandering back and forth.
  4. Break every pumpkin. Check behind ruins, towers, graves, and other map clutter before committing to the boss route.
  5. Confirm the counter is complete. Do not leave the map while the counter still shows an unbroken pumpkin.
Character check: clearing the objects with another character does not satisfy the Pumpkin achievement. Use Roberto from the start.

Fast Graveyard Search Route

1Outer loop

Follow the edge and check behind the tall structures.

2Wide middle lanes

Cross the map in parallel sweeps with minimal overlap.

3Counter cleanup

If anything remains, revisit cluttered ruins rather than repeating the entire route.

Movement Speed and extra jumps reduce search time, but the priority is a repeatable route. A slower complete sweep is better than a fast random path that leaves one pumpkin hidden.

When Pumpkin Is Worth Taking

High value

  • You pick it up before moving to another stage.
  • Your route already breaks most pots.
  • You want more Gold and pot-based resources over a long run.

Lower value

  • You are already on the final stage of the route.
  • You are rushing a boss and will ignore pots.
  • You need immediate combat power more than future economy.

Common Pumpkin Mistakes

Expecting new pots immediately

The extra pot count applies to future stages; it does not repopulate the map you already entered.

Turning the counter on too late

Enable it before the attempt so the final cleanup is guided by an exact remaining count.

Taking it as a damage item

Pumpkin is an economy and map-resource pick. It does not directly raise weapon damage.
