15 Hardest Video Game Achievements Of 2017 (So Far)
9. Hard To The Core - Little Nightmares
Hard to the Core requires you to beat Little Nightmares in under one hour with zero deaths. Surprisingly enough you don't need to do it on some insane difficulty, but that by no way means it's going to be an easy task - it is on this list after all.
What makes this achievement so hard is not the fact that you cannot die, as hard as that is. No, it's the time constraint the speed run puts you in.
That premise doesn't sound bad considering it's just a simple platformer, and most can be speedrun in no time at all, but a 'no death run' in Little Nightmares, even when everything goes perfectly, is going to take you around 55 minutes - just five short of that goal time of one hour.
You need to have an absolutely flawless run to have a chance at getting this, and let's not forget one single death and it's back to the beginning. Since the game autosaves upon death, you can't even quit out.
A 100% flawless run as fast as you possibly can is the only option, and if you still think it sounds easy, the 0.33% of Xbox users who've unlocked it probably beg to differ.
