Listed below are numerous PC Game Pass titles that will give your Gamerscore a healthy boost. Some of these have achievement lists that are shared with the console version of the game, and others have their own exclusive Windows achievement list, so if you're an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscriber, you'll be able to play through some of these titles twice and earn 2,000G!

Games with a separate Windows achievement list have been marked with the 'Windows' tag in their heading.

If you're looking for quick and easy games for the console version of Game Pass, give our Game Pass easy achievements article a read.

0-0.5 hours

Townscaper

The first stop for all PC Game Pass subscribers who are on the hunt for easy Gamerscore is Townscaper, which has ten achievements that can be unlocked in about 30 minutes. All of the achievements have dead-simple requirements, though some can take a little bit of figuring out to pop. Thankfully, others have paved the way for you and written down exactly what you need to for the trickier achievements in handy individual achievement guides. Be sure to check out the guides for Propelled, Who goes there?, Sculptor, and Architect, to get the full 1,000G with ease. If you need it, we also have an excellent Townscaper walkthrough, written by Jelbrehir8. Sadly, Townscaper is a Play Anywhere title, so you won't be able to earn another 1,000G here if you've already completed it on console.

0.5-1 hour

My Friend Peppa Pig

If you can withstand an hour of Peppa Pig staring into your soul and her grating voice, you can earn yourself a nice quick and easy 1,000G with My Friend Peppa Pig. The adventure game has just 11 achievements that can easily be unlocked by using some of the achievement guides found here. My Friend Peppa Pig does not have a separate Windows achievement list, so you can only complete this one once, which is a good thing.

Signalis

The PC version of Signalis, which shares an achievement list with the console version, can be completed in under an hour with the help of a debug menu — for more on this method, check out this forum post. Without using this method, it would probably take you around 12 hours to unlock all 13 achievements in the survival horror game, and while the debug menu is there, we definitely recommend giving Signalis a proper chance, as it is a decent title.

1-2 hours

Hello Neighbor 2

It was previously possible to unlock all 14 Hello Neighbor 2 achievements in around 20 minutes thanks to various glitches and exploits, but these have now been patched out. Thankfully, you can still earn yourself a nice little 1,000G from the stealth game in just a couple of hours by following our Hello Neighbor 2 Walkthrough (thanks, ArthurSponer) — just be sure to pay attention to the guide as there are some achievements that you won't want to miss during your playthrough.

Overwhelm (Windows)

Thanks to an Assist Mode, the achievements in Overwhelm are a breeze to unlock. Estimates suggest that you can unlock all ten of Overwhelm's achievements in under two hours with the various assists turned on. While we don't have a walkthrough available at the time of writing, there are numerous individual achievement guides that will stop you from feeling a little... overwhelmed if you find yourself stuck. Overwhelm is not available on console, so as it stands, it has a Windows-only achievement list.

Escape Academy

First things first, if you want to complete Escape Academy in just a couple of hours, you're going to have to use our excellent Escape Academy walkthrough (written by ManicMetalhead), which gives solutions to each of the game's puzzles, and you're going to need either a co-op partner or a second controller/input. If you're willing to just blitz through the game for its Gamerscore, following the walkthrough will help you unlock all 27 Escape Academy achievements in under two hours.

Gang Beasts

Now, when compared to other games on this list, Gang Beasts does have a fairly high TA ratio, but as estimates suggest, it should only take you only a couple of hours to unlock all 19 of its achievements. As per TheOnlyMatto's superb Gang Beasts achievement walkthrough, you should be able to complete the party game in that time frame with the help of two controllers. Sure, the controls are a little finicky, and they will take some getting used to, but once you've got them mastered, you should have no trouble nabbing that 1,000G. Gang Beasts is an Xbox Play Anywhere title, which means it shares an achievement list between the console and PC versions of the game.

Unpacking

A quick completion doesn't get much more simple than Unpacking. Thanks to an accessibility setting that allows you to unpack items wherever you want, unlocking all 25 of the game's achievements will take you less than two hours. For more on this, give Rossco7530's superb Unpacking walkthrough a read. Be careful not to miss the puzzle game's subtle narrative, though — it's pretty sweet. Unpacking has just one achievement list, so no stacks here, unfortunately!

Doom 64

Doom 64 can be completed in under two hours, thanks to its password screen. The remastered first-person shooter's ten achievements are a breeze to unlock thanks to PangoBara's superb Doom 64 walkthrough, which details what passwords you need to use and when. Unfortunately, Doom 64 is a Play Anywhere title, meaning it has just one achievement list shared between console and PC.

2-3 hours

Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion

The 37 Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion achievements, which are all made easy thanks to a couple of in-game assist options, will take you about three hours to unlock, but you might be able to get through them quicker if you follow our Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion walkthrough (written by PangoBara). Unfortunately, Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion shares an achievement list with the console version, so there isn't a stack here.

DC League of Super-Pets: The Adventures of Krypto and Ace

Don’t let anyone tell you that playing a game designed for children just for the easy Gamerscore is a bad thing — you do what you want, friend! DC League of Super-Pets: The Adventures of Krypto and Ace is an on-rails shooter that has 15 easy achievements, which will roughly take you a few hours to unlock. It’s pretty easy overall, but if you do find yourself at a loss, be sure to give our DC League of Super-Pets: The Adventures of Krypto and Ace walkthrough (written by PresidentScroob) a read. Unfortunately, there is no stack here, so if you’ve already completed it on console, you can’t earn another 1,000G.

Full Throttle Remastered

Full Throttle Remastered is one of Double Fine's finest games. According to estimates, the point-and-click adventure's 40-strong achievement list will take between two and three hours to unlock. The game has a litany of missable achievements that you'll need to keep an eye out for during your playthrough, so be sure to check out some of the individual achievement guides we have before starting your playthrough. If you want to make it really easy on yourself, you can play while following DarkR Phantom's Full Throttle Remastered walkthrough. Full Throttle Remastered is an Xbox Play Anywhere title and share an achievement list between console and PC.

Day of the Tentacle Remastered

Sticking with Double Fine, we have Day of the Tentacle Remastered, which is a simple point-and-click adventure game that has 58 achievements worth a total of 1,000 Gamerscore. According to estimates, unlocking all 58 achievements will take between two and three hours to complete if you're following our Day of the Tentacle walkthrough. The game's achievement list is littered with missable achievements, so we highly recommend you follow the walkthrough, written by TA user Chad and Jessie. Once again, Day of the Tentacle is an Xbox Play Anywhere title, meaning it does not have a separate, stackable achievement list on PC.

3-4 hours

Frog Detective: The Entire Mystery (Windows)

The wonderful Frog Detective: The Entire Mystery features 18 achievements that can all be unlocked in under four hours. While a fair few are awarded for completing various story beats, there are numerous miscellaneous achievements and missables you’ll need to contend with. Thankfully, by using some of the individual achievement guides here on TA, these won’t be an issue. Frog Detective: The Entire Mystery is currently only available on PC Game Pass and not the console version of the service.

Inside

Not only is Inside an excellent puzzle platformer, but it’s also a quick and easy completion. Inside has 14 achievements that can all be unlocked in under four hours, though you may need a helping hand from our Inside walkthrough (written by Unrehearsed) as every single achievement has been flagged as collectable. There is no achievement stack here either, I’m afraid, so if you’ve already completed it on console, you can’t earn yourself another 1,000G.

Coffee Talk

The cosy and warm Coffee Talk is an excellent visual novel where you can earn 1,000 Gamerscore in under four hours. Most of the achievements revolve around mixing the correct drink with all the right ingredients for a specific character, and while that does sound daunting on paper, it’s really easy if you make use of your superb Coffee Talk walkthrough from TassieTigerDave.

PAW Patrol: Mighty Pups Save Adventure Bay

Our next children's game is PAW Patrol: Mighty Pups Save Adventure Bay, which has 30 achievements that can be unlocked in under four hours. While most of the list is pretty straightforward, there are numerous collectables you'll need to pick up along the way. The Pup Treat Master achievement requires you to find all the Pup Treats hidden in the game. Just so you know, there are a whopping 7,250 treats you'll need to collect. Again, no stackable list here, I'm afraid.

4-5 hours

Ravenlok

Next up, we have the dark fairy tale adventure game Ravenlok. Unlocking all of the game's 50 achievements is a relatively stress-free experience that should only take you about four hours or so. There is one missable achievement, which is very simple to unlock, and a bunch of collectable achievements that you can mop up at the end. For more on these, check out some of the achievement guides we have available.

Somerville

Sci-fi narrative adventure Somerville is next up on our list of quick completions. This adventure game has 11 achievements that can all be unlocked in under five hours. Looking at the achievement list, the descriptions are pretty opaque, but they are all really simple, especially if you're playing while following some of our individual achievement guides.

5-6 hours

Beacon Pines

For those looking for a suspenseful adventure game with an easy achievement list, Beacon Pines has got your back. Estimates suggest it will take between five and six hours to unlock all ten of the game’s achievements; however, you may be able to get them all popped in much less time by using our Beacon Pines walkthrough (written by ExP TAT). The only real troublesome achievement on Beacon Pines’ list is the Agile Angler achievement, so definitely give that walkthrough or some of the guides we have on TA a read first. Beacon Pines on PC shares a list with the console version, so there isn’t a stack here.

Scorn

While Scorn may look like a difficult completion with its opaque achievement descriptions, it’s pretty easy. Using some of the individual achievement guides we have on TA, you should be able to breeze through Scorn’s 12 achievements in under six hours. Most are unlocked by simply playing through the game, but there are a few achievements flagged as missable that you’ll need to be wary of. Unfortunately, the PC version of the game does share an achievement list with the console version, so there is no stack here!

6-8 hours

Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice (Windows)

Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice is one of the highest-rated games on this list according to its 4.17/5 rating here on TA. The action-adventure game has 14 achievements worth a total of 1,000 Gamerscore and can be completed in around six to eight hours. The Stories From the North achievement is the hardest one on the list. It involves collecting 44 Lorestones that are hidden throughout the game. We have a great Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice Walkthrough written by Kylko that details where to find all of the Lorestones and how to grab every achievement from the game.

Soma

While estimates suggest you'll need around eight hours to complete Soma, you can breeze through its achievement list using the game's Safe mode and our Soma walkthrough (thanks, Wyyvern). The mean monsters in Soma won't chase you with Safe mode on, which means you can merrily make your way through the first-person sci-fi horror game without a care in the world.

The Gunk

To unlock all 17 of The Gunk's achievements and earn yourself another 1,000G, make sure you set aside around six hours. Most of the list is relatively easy, but there are a couple of achievements that can be a bit tricky. Both Space Archaeologists and All In are missable and require either a fair bit of resource gathering or the scanning of flora and fauna. If you want to know more about these two, check out the individual achievement guides we have. Sadly, unlike Hellblade above, there is no stackable achievement list here.
