Homicide Desk Achievements

Steam lists 22 achievements on Homicide Desk. Shu’la Lab LLC shipped them with the September 1, 2026 Windows release. Cloud is on, so a close on one PC should follow you. This page is the named set this wiki can confirm from store copy and in-game systems. It will not invent the remaining display names, and it will not tell you who to charge on Case #001 The Overtime.

Read this after Getting Started. Desk skill lives on the Guides Hub. File process lives on the Walkthrough Hub. Salary toys live on the precinct page. If a popup never fires, confirm the depot on patch notes before you assume a broken tracker.

First closes and file quality

First Collar is the handshake. Close Case #000 The Pawnshop Key, arrest Tommy Vale, and walk out field-certified. The Steam demo was that robbery; retail still expects you to finish it. Do not skip Certification to hunt a homicide trophy. Morrison will not treat you as Major Crimes until the Longines is signed off.

Swift Justice and Inspector’s Eye sit next to that first warrant. Fast is not sloppy. The pawnshop file is short on purpose: counter receipt 26-0893, Friday 10 January 2020 at 23:40, $650 cash against a watch insured at $2,400. Present the slip instead of fishing. If you rush the booth with nothing, they lawyer up and you redo the interview. If you skip the 3D watch in the Forensics Lab, you miss the tag that makes the paper land.

Case Closer is the career close count. Launch ships cases 001 through 003 after training. Shu’la Lab has promised more files later without dates. Do not expect twenty homicides on day one. Flawless Record wants those closes without Internal Affairs. A wrong arrest warrant is not a soft fail. Reopen, re-lab, rewrite. Multiple guilty-party variants mean a previous timeline is not a hint. Leave No Stone is thoroughness: nested Case Files, UV on scene photos, sealed packets, City Atlas checks against a call log. Start that habit on the pawnshop board, not on a sealed strongbox in Eastdock.

Clean Sweep is the long docket, not a single lucky charge. Work every launch file, including training, before you treat the set as done. Future cases will extend it. This wiki will add names when Steam news ships them.

Lab, board, and the booth

Master Cryptographer is cipher work you do yourself. The lab has no Analyze button. Align the print, calibrate the chromatograph against the clock, break the lock on a packet. Request Dossier during interrogation can buy a folder you already could have decoded. Spend salary on an emergency, not as a skip. Inspector’s Eye and Leave No Stone both care that you opened the thing.

Pins on the evidence board are how file-quality unlocks stay honest. String Tommy Vale to the receipt, Dana Brook to the counter, Edwin Hollis to the insurance figure. On a homicide, string people, places, and objects before you type. The local model in the booth phrases a reply from what you present. It cannot see a peak you never calibrated.

Do not farm Swift Justice by charging on a hunch. Flawless Record and Case Closer pull in opposite directions if you speedrun warrants. The how to solve a case loop is the one that feeds both: read, lab, board, interrogate, write a deduction, then file.

Precinct life: pay, Store, blackjack

Collector is the Store catalog. Buy after Certification. Nothing in the commissary replaces a presentable receipt. High Roller and The Regular are Game Room blackjack in in-game currency only. There is no real-money wager and no cash-out. Play when a file is closed or a dispatch timer is running. Losing a hand does not fail a case. Losing the bankroll fails the next Offer a Break.

Top Brass sits on the promotion track. Keep Internal Affairs off the jacket, close files, and let Personnel File stay clean. Dispatch from City Atlas and Gazette reading feed the living precinct; they are not a hidden killer highlighter. Salary still pays Request Dossier and Offer a Break. A broke detective cannot buy a pause when a suspect hits AGITATED.

Steam’s remaining display names past this confirmed dozen live in the client overlay. This wiki will not guess them from vibe. Open the in-game achievement list after First Collar and map each leftover to a desk app you already use: Cases, Forensics Lab, Investigation Board, Arrest Warrant, Store, Game Room, Certification. If a name mentions a specific homicide, stop and finish that file without a spoiler guide.

What this page will not do

It will not name who killed Marcus Reeves. Case #001 has multiple guilty-party variants. Reopen a solved file and the truth can change. Trophy hunting that dumps a charge is how you brick Flawless Record on a later variant.

It will not tell you to idle blackjack during The Overtime. It will not tell you the 13 GB model is an achievement. Hardware and ollama.exe leftovers belong on the local interrogation model page and system requirements. Language and demo-versus-retail belong in settings and languages.

Twenty-two is the store count at launch. When Shu’la Lab adds a case, the overlay may grow. Until a news post names a new unlock, chase the dozen above, then the leftovers in Steam. Official URLs sit on links. Buyer context is the review.

Clock the files first. The overlay follows.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers for detectives still on the clock.

How many Steam achievements does Homicide Desk have?

Twenty-two at the September 1, 2026 launch. This page names the dozen confirmed from store and desk systems. The rest live in the Steam overlay.

What is First Collar?

Your first successful charge. On a new save that is Case #000: arrest Tommy Vale, get field-certified, then Morrison will hand you a homicide.

Do High Roller and Collector affect cases?

No. They are precinct sinks. Keep salary for Offer a Break and Request Dossier in interrogation. See the precinct guide.

Will this guide name the Case #001 killer for a trophy?

No. Variants can change the guilty party. Use The Overtime for setup only, then charging for process.

Can I skip the pawnshop and still 100 percent?

No. Training is a real file. Certification, First Collar, and the habit for Leave No Stone all start there. Details: training case.

Why did an achievement not pop?

Confirm you are on the current depot, that Steam Cloud finished a sync, and that the in-game action actually completed. Launch-week notes are on patch notes.
