Megamind: Ultimate Showdown Walkthrough

3. Story walkthrough

The Lair

At the start of the game you'll find yourself in control of Megamind, in his lair. This is where you'll unlock the first achievement of the game. Around the lair you'll notice a bunch of small blue glowing orbs, each of these orbs are worth 10 B.I.N.K.E.Y. and so you'll need to explore the lair and pick up 15 of these orbs to unlock the following achievement:

Lair Clean Up Achievement in Megamind: Ultimate Showdown

Lair Clean Up25 (25)

Offline Required - This achievement requires play in offline game modesSingle Player - This achievement can be obtained in single player game modesCooperative - This achievement can be obtained in non-versus game modes where players work together
Collect 150 B.I.N.K.E.Y. in the Lair as Megamind

Level 1: The Museum

While it's completely possible that you'll unlock 1 or 2 of the B.L.I.N.K.Y. related achievements, I'm going to say right now, don't bother going out of your way to collect orbs, there's more than enough from the second level and with that in mind you should only worry about unlocking the following achievements during this level;

Museum Master Achievement in Megamind: Ultimate Showdown

Museum Master30 (30)

Offline Required - This achievement requires play in offline game modesSingle Player - This achievement can be obtained in single player game modesCooperative - This achievement can be obtained in non-versus game modes where players work togetherMain Storyline - This achievement is gained automatically by progressing through the main game mode
Complete "The Museum" Level as Megamind

You'll unlock the above achievement once you complete the level. The story mode is incredibly linear and so you shouldn't have any trouble playing through the game and unlocking the level related achievements.

Mega-Skill Achievement in Megamind: Ultimate Showdown

Mega-Skill51 (50)

Offline Required - This achievement requires play in offline game modesSingle Player - This achievement can be obtained in single player game modesCooperative - This achievement can be obtained in non-versus game modes where players work together
Complete any story mission without dying as Megamind

Now, while I doubt that you'll find any part of this game massively difficult, this is the easiest level to unlock the above achievement. Just play through the level and take care of the enemies as they spawn. The enemies on this level shouldn't present you with any kind of real threat, just make sure to play conservatively because there's no way to heal lost health. If for whatever reason you die, don't worry! You can choose to play levels again from the level select map!

Level 2 Downtown

During this level you should expect to pick up 2 more unmissable achievements and finish off any remaining B.I.N.K.E.Y. related achievements.

Collect 3000 B.I.N.K.E.Y. in any single level as Megamind

You may already have 1 or 2 of these, as I said earlier it's not impossible to unlock some of them on the first level but as you'll find out from this level onwards, there is an absolute abundance of B.I.N.K.E.Y. up for grabs!. Now just like in The Lair, you need to pick up the little blue orbs throughout the level, each orb is worth 10 B.I.N.K.E.Y. regardless of size. It's a good idea to try and get these out of the way and if you pick all the orbs up as your progress you should unlock the 3000 B.I.N.K.E.Y. achievement about 3 quarters of the way through the level. Remember to destroy as much of the level objects as possible too, they nearly all drop a decent amount of B.I.N.K.E.Y. for you to collect.

Defeat Destruction Worker without dying as Megamind

To unlock this achievement you'll need to defeat the boss without dying, take your time and don't get greedy and you shouldn't have any trouble with this. If you're low on health toward the boss fight it's a good idea to die so that you go into the boss fight with full health, so when you reach the area where you're in a building going down the levels through holes in the floor you are right before the boss, if you need health you should let yourself die at this point. The boss is called Destruction Worker and he's incredibly simple as he will attack in a pattern. First of all, take care of the goons he calls in to proceed to the next part of his pattern. From there he'll try and drop a bunch of crates on you, just keep moving about to avoid them. Once he's finished dropping them once of the crates will smash open and drop some explosives, this is what you'll use to damage him. You need to pick up the explosives and place them below him, while you do this he'll try and drop the wrecking ball on you; the best way to avoid taking any damage at this point is to drop the explosives when the wrecking ball gets too close. Once you've placed the explosives below him, use the plunger to set them off and damage him by a block (one third) of his health bar. Repeat this process until he's defeated, if you defeat him without dying yourself, you'll unlock this achievement. If for whatever reason you do die you'll need to play through the whole level again.

Level 4 The Underground

Upon completing this level you'll unlock the next 2 achievements. You don't need to meet any special requirements, just complete the level.

Defeat Psycho Delic without dying as Megamind

Just like the last boss, you need to defeat this guy without dying, while the boss can be defeated quickly and doesn't pose much of a threat you can get killed off by his goons if you're not careful, so try and take care of them as they spawn. Now, when you reach the part of the level where there's a clown mouth entrance be sure to die and get full health before leaving it as you're only round the corner from the boss. To defeat the boss you'll need to run over to the highlighted valves and "use" them, make sure to avoid the purple steam because that damages you and try not to get cornered by the goons.

Second to last level, second to last boss fight! Right, when you reach the section of the level where there's a long bridge with a train in the background you're getting close to the boss fight. If you need the health jump into the river so you'll respawn with full health. The boss battle is actually one of the easiest in the game, kill the goons when they spawn, then run and dodge the bosses attacks until she stops and raises fire beneath her, at this point run to the hydrants at the bottom of the screen and use them to damage her. Each time you use a hydrant you'll knock off a third of her health, repeat this process until she's defeated!

Defeat Blue Tighten without dying as Megamind

For this achievement you'll need to defeat Tighten without getting killed, this is arguably the easiest level in the game. The level is just the boss fight with Tighten and he is easy enough to beat. He'll attack in a set pattern, first of all he'll try throwing some rocks at you, just shoot them out the air before they hit you, then he'll pick up 1 of the columns supporting the building, concentrate your fire on the section closest to his hands so that he drops the column. Once he picks up the last column supporting that section the building will fall on him and damage him by a third, once you've defeated him the level will end and you'll unlock this achievement.

Congratulations on completing the game and unlocking all the achievements!
