Notes.
Enigmatis: The Ghosts of Maple Creek has a total of 11 Steam achievements of these, just 2 are earned through natural progression and 9 are missable, all of which can be earned with a single playthrough of the main game and bonus chapter, taking around 4 to 6 hours.

- There are no achievements relating to difficulty, so select whichever setting suits your mood (given that hidden object games within Enigmatis: The Ghosts of Maple Creek have random items to locate which can differ from one game to the next, casual is advised for achievement hunters).

- There are no achievements related to watching cut scenes, so skip away if you wish.

- DO NOT skip any of the hidden object games (HOG's) and do not use the hint button during any of the HOG's (applies to the main game only).

- DO NOT skip any of the mini-game puzzles (applies to the main game only).

At the end of the guide is a full video walkthrough with time indexers for all HOG's and mini-game puzzles to allow you to quickly and easily find the solution to whatever is giving you trouble.
Achievement Guide.
The following achievements are listed in the order that I earned them.

Faster than light!.
Finish any Mini-Game in less than 1 minute.
To earn this achievement simply complete one of the Mini-Game puzzles within Enigmatis: The Ghosts of Maple Creek in under 60 seconds. This achievement is technically missable however the first puzzle you encounter (the chapel door lock puzzle) consists of three separate puzzles, the first of which takes less than 5 seconds to complete.
Flawless aim.
Finish any Hidden Object Puzzle with less than 4 mis-clicks.
WARNING THIS ACHIEVEMENT IS MISSABLE.
To earn this achievement you must complete a hidden object game (HOG) with a maximum of three mis-clicks (clicking on an object or scenery that is not on the list of objects that you must find shown at the bottom of the screen).

There are a total of 34 HOG's in the main game and a further 10 in the bonus chapter, please note that I am unsure if this achievement can be earned in the bonus chapter as I earned this fairly early on.

Be aware that the items you need to find is random from one playthrough to another, as such those seeking assistance for a HOG in my video walkthrough below will find that some, although not all items will be the same.
Instant finding.
Find 3 hidden-objects within 3 seconds.
WARNING THIS ACHIEVEMENT IS MISSABLE.
When playing one of the HOG's you must click on 3 of the items that you are required to locate within 3 seconds to earn this achievement. While missable, it's not that difficult, when a HOG starts just sit back, located 3 items, remember of each their location and then click on all three in quick succession and job done.

Again be aware I am not sure if this can be earned during the bonus chapter.
Skilled searcher.
Finish 15 Hidden Object Puzzles in a row without using hints.
WARNING THIS ACHIEVEMENT IS MISSABLE.
If you are trying to 100% Enigmatis: The Ghosts of Maple Creek DO NOT USE HINTS during any of the 34 HOG's in the main game (the Master searcher achievement earned for completing all HOG's without using a hint pops at the end of the main game and you are free to use hints in the bonus chapter if you wish).

As noted earlier, HOG items lists are random, as such the HOG's in my video walkthroughs below, will only be of limited use and so patience and persistence may at times be required. Thankfully, there is no difficulty related achievement in Enigmatis: The Ghosts of Maple Creek so if you are playing on casual, once you have the "Flawless aim" achievement out of the way you can spam click to locate items if you are really that stuck.
Bright mind.
Finish 4 Mini-Games in a row without skipping.
WARNING THIS ACHIEVEMENT IS MISSABLE.
If you are trying to 100% Enigmatis: The Ghosts of Maple Creek DO NOT SKIP any Mini-Game puzzles during any of the 16 puzzles in the main game (the "Puzzle expert" achievement for completing all Mini-Game puzzles without skipping pops at the end of the main game and you are free to skip Mini-Games in the bonus chapter if you wish).

Unlike HOG's the solution for Mini-Game puzzles in Enigmatis: The Ghosts of Maple Creek are the same from one game to the next, as such if any are giving you trouble, consult my video walkthrough below which has time stamp markers for each puzzle.
Eagle-eyed.
Finish any Hidden Object Puzzle in less than 1 minute.
WARNING THIS ACHIEVEMENT IS MISSABLE.
This is usually one of the more annoying achievements found in hidden object games (trumped only by collectables), thankfully in Enigmatis: The Ghosts of Maple Creek there are multiple HOG game locations that are repeated three times and by the time you come around to doing them for the 3rd time, you should have little trouble finding the remaining required items in less than 60 seconds.

Again, not sure if this one can be completed in the bonus chapter.
Puzzle expert.
Finish all Mini-Games without skipping.

Just a note: my hidden objects scenes aren't random at all: I have always the same in all of my playthroughs (and they are the same as yours). There are perhaps some differences if you change language (I stumble upon some in French) but it is always the same items. Perhaps a copy-paste problem? :hmm:
