Microtransaction Simulator Achievement Guide

A screenshot from the Microtransaction Simulator game.

I like to play random free games on Steam. A while ago I played through Loading Screen Simulator, so now it is only right that I play Microtransaction Simulator next. As these games are free, it usually means an easy 100% achievement playthrough in a few hours. I like that. Here is my Microtransaction Simulator achievement guide.

Color Card Achievements (8/8)

Microtransaction Simulator Achievement Guide
To unlock these achievements buy upgrades from the Shop.

In the game there is a shop you can use to spend you money in. Buying the different upgrades/memes from the shop unlocks different achievmeents. There are 6 total you can buy:

  • The Year is 20xx – Purchase the Meaningless upgrade
  • Tricks are for kids – Purchase the Card Trick upgrade
  • The House Always Wins – Purchase the SCOG Lotto upgrade
  • Schooled – Purchase the Architect upgrade
  • Guacamole – Purchase and use the MAYAN2012 upgrade

Up to this point, all the achievements can be gathered by using autoclickers and normal means. To get the last 5 achievements, you will need to access the game’s catch.gd file. This file can be located by following SteamLibrary (Wherever you put it) > SteamApps > Common > Microtransaction_Simulator. You will see catch.gd sitting here. To access the files, use Notepad++. You can find the steps for each achievement below.

  • Brick your game (intentionally) – Access the catch.gd file. Delete everything inside and set the file to Read – Only. Start up the game (be sure to check off Read – Only after getting the achievement).
Code change needed to unlock the Impossible achievement in Microtransaction Simulator.
This is the sequence for the Impossible achievement
  • Impossible – ‘Open’ a pack that has a total value of 40,000. To do this, change the values of the last pack opened in the catch.gd file (see pic above). totalCardOpenValue must match the total of the four totalValue entries below.
Code change needed to unlock Mighty Number 9 achievement in Microtransaction Simulator.
This is the sequence for the Mighty Number 9 achievement
  • Mighty Number 9 – ‘Open’ a pack that has four of the same repeating numbers. To do this you need to change some more code. Change your code to look like the pic above.

This concludes our Microtransaction Simulator achievement guide. As you can see it is a fairly simple game to 100% and best of all it is free. If you want another game like this check out our Press Any Key guide for a similar free achievement game.
