Achievements are obtainable rewards in the game Icebreaker: A Viking Voyage. They were added to the game on October 15 2013, as a part of the 1.1 update. When the game is released for the Android platform, achievements will be synced with the player's Google Play profile.
Overview[]
Achievements are obtained via completing certain tasks throughout the game. One a task is completed, a notification will pop up, notifying the player that they have obtained an achievement. The Watcher sets all of the achievement challenges in the game, as well as records all of the player's achievements.
The player can visit the Watcher's airship at any time to view the list of the achievements via tapping the golden award button at the bottom-left corner of the menu. It can also be accessed by tapping on the Watcher's hot air balloon, which follows the mini drakkar on the level maps. Upon completing a task, the corresponding achievement will no longer have a blank icon with a filler trophy. Rather, the icon will be filled with a custom icon representing the achievement.
In order to show hidden achievements, or missions, on the main achievement list, the player must first find the level of that achievement, if it exists. In that level, there will be a balloon with a question mark on it tied to a sign with a trophy on it. Slicing the balloon will reveal a ringing bell and the hidden mission, which the player can now complete. If no level exists for the mission, then the player must simply complete the task in any level or levels in the game.

Hidden[]
As hidden achievements are different from regular achievements, two extra fields are added to the standard achievement template: "Activation location" and "Earn location". The field "Activation location" states the level where the balloon is that is necessary to activate the achievement, so the player can go to unlock the achievement.
"Earn location" states the level the player must go to after activating the achievement. Although the level the player activates the achievement is usually the level it can be earned, some achievements have a separate level to activate an achievement, and a separate level to actually earn the achievement.

This will cause the Viking to roll from the first basket, across to the second basket, and over top a high up coin and a treasure chest and into the Drakkar.

In version 1.1.0, it is possible to lift the ice block up (thus saving the Viking), then drop the ice block and kill the Viking, yet still earning the achievement. Alternatively, the player can go to Troll Marsh level 13C Finger of the Gods and use the God Power to drown and then lift up the viking from the water.
