Worming from Home Wormchievements: Every Achievement and How to Unlock It

A complete Worming from Home wormchievements guide: every Steam achievement, unlock requirement, shop price, video call rating, and Smartphone reward.

Worming from Home wormchievements are the real endgame for anyone who ever wanted to climb the corporate ladder while living in a plant pot. The game hands you a laptop, a spreadsheet, and a deeply unusual home office, then asks you to trade stocks, hire interns, and survive video calls with your boss, Steve. If you are chasing 100%, you need a map.

That is exactly what this guide provides. Below you will find every Worming from Home wormchievements requirement sorted into scannable tables, plus the money milestones, the video call grades, and the hidden interactions that most players walk right past. Community reports put a full completion run at roughly eight hours, so a focused plan saves real time.

How Many Achievements Does Worming from Home Have?

Steam's global stats page lists 27 achievements for the game, and the unlock rates tell a clear story: the tutorial-level stuff is nearly universal, while the shop and social achievements sit under 15%. You can check the live numbers on the official Worming from Home achievement stats page on Steam.

One thing to know before you start: community guides and the in-game list sometimes use different names for the same unlock. Steam calls one "Stroke of Luck," while written guides often call it "A lucky break." The requirements are identical, so do not let the naming throw you off.

Here is the full breakdown, sorted from most common to rarest based on Steam's public global stats.

Story and Progression Achievements You Cannot Miss

These are the wormchievements that unlock naturally as you play, and they are also the ones that fund everything else. Most of them are tied to money, upgrades, or the main story beats, so knock them out early.

Welcome to Corporate Finance is your first login. Walk up to the computer and enter the password shown on the screen — it is worm123. The moment the desktop loads, the achievement pops.

TOUCHDOWN! requires nothing special. Just move around and play; it triggers once you have traveled a total of 100 yards. Some community write-ups describe this as 100 meters, but either way, it unlocks automatically within your first hour.

Wow, You're Desperate is the first real timer in the game. When M. messages you, you have one real-time minute to reply. Pick the shortest response available and send it immediately.

Absolutely Massive and Book Worm are the two upgrade trees. Buy every gym upgrade to finish Muscle Mass, and buy out the Financial Intuition branch to complete Financial Insight. These are expensive, so treat them as long-term goals you fund alongside everything else.

MilestoneRequirementReward Beyond the Achievement
L-shaped desk$1,000 from the ShopRequired for A New Friend
Plot of land$2,000Visit it three days later and talk to the character
Video camera$3,000Needed for the video call setup
Sound bar$5,000Needed for the video call setup
10 internsShop purchasesUnlocks Valuable Work Experience
$100,000 balanceSavings goalA hat plus in-game Chervegram rewards

I Love the Earth follows the land purchase. Buy the plot for $2,000, wait three in-game days, then travel there and speak to the character who appears.

Money, Shop, and Upgrade Achievements

The expensive end of the list is where most players stall. Expensive Taste asks you to buy every item in the Shop, including all 100 interns, which makes it the single biggest money sink in the game. Only about one in ten players has it.

If you are working toward that, keep these habits in mind:

  • Trade in volume. Day Trader wants 100 shares bought or sold within one day, and any stock counts. Pick the cheapest share you can find and move volume rather than chasing big margins.
  • Stack passive income early. Interns and upgrades pay for themselves over a long session.
  • Do not skip the cheap items. Small purchases count toward Expensive Taste just as much as the video camera does.
  • Bank the milestone. Once your balance hits $100,000, 10% of the Way to Buying a House unlocks, and it comes with a hat and some money on Chervegram.

Would You Still Love Me? is the relationship line with M. Keep talking to her until she gives you the number for a flower shop. Call the shop, wait three in-game days, and when she asks whether you sent the flowers, answer yes.

Secret, Prank, and Video Call Achievements

This is the fun half of the list, and it is also where most of the wormchievements get missed. None of these are hard — they are just easy to overlook.

AchievementWhat You Actually Do
God I Love DirtCommune with a pile of dirt
A New FriendOwn the printer and the L-shaped table, then greet the ladybug
A Thirsty, Thirsty WormDrink three glasses of water in one day to earn the Beverage Hat, then drink while wearing it
I Work Better in SilenceGrab the radio and throw it on the floor
Give Me AttentionThrow everything off your desk; if it does not pop, clear the top shelf too
That Was EmbarrassingDraw anything on paper, then throw the paper in the trash
Stroke of LuckRoll the 20-sided die until you land a natural 20
Establish DominanceThrow an intern into the floor trash can — use Reset Objects from the pause menu to get them back
Surveillance StateFilm an intern without permission during a video call
I Hope You're HappyCall 911 twice in the game only until Emergency Services blocks you
KafkaesquePrint the contract, sign it with anything, place it face down under the printer lid, then send it to Steve
Print a $1,000 BillUse the printer to produce a $1,000 bill

A note on the emergency services achievement: this is an in-game action only. Never dial that number in real life.

The video call is its own mini-checklist. Three achievements live there, and you can earn two of them in a single call.

AchievementGrade or Action NeededTip
Ugh, BoooooooringggggStart a call with Steve, then hang upDo not finish the call at all
Absolute Expertise"S" grade (guides often call this an A+ rating)Answer fast and avoid mistakes
Worm of Wall StreetPromotion to Financial Analysis SpecialistGrade does not matter, but an S-grade call can unlock both at once

Worm-fluencer, Torment Mode, and Faster Completion

Worm-fluencer is the sleeper achievement on the list. It requires redeeming every reward on the Smartphone, which means completing a long list of small tasks across many systems. Because it touches so many mechanics, it is worth chipping away at from day one.

CategoryRewards You Need to Redeem
MoneyReach a $100 balance; reach a $100,000 balance; give money to the grandmother who calls
Food and drinkDrink three glasses of water in one day; drink coffee three times in one day
Water mischiefSpill water on the keyboard; pour water on an intern; interrupt your boss's video call with water
Home and gardenWater the plant you sleep in; change the radio channel; jump four feet horizontally in one jump
SocialSend a message to any colleague; compliment Steve; start a relationship with M.; find a ladybug
InternsThrow an intern out of their workstation; remove the intern during a video call
PrintingScan a frog (it is on the top shelf); scan yourself and send the image to Steve; draw on a man's picture with a marker
Adventure and luckGo through a wormhole; roll a 20-sided die and get a 20 or a 1; reach the maximum training multiplier

What Changed With Wormhole Torment Mode

This is the most important patch note for completionists. The 1.0.3 update removed Wormhole Torment Mode as an achievement. Previously, the hardest Wormhole difficulty was part of the 100% list, and the developers removed it after player feedback that it was disproportionately difficult compared with everything else.

Torment Mode still exists, and finishing it now grants a special wall plaque instead of a trophy. Whole Lotta Worm only requires that you navigate the Wormhole at all, so you can skip the hardest difficulty entirely.

Tips to Finish Faster

  • Front-load upgrades. Muscle Mass and Financial Intuition bonuses both feed your income, which funds Expensive Taste.
  • Use Reset Objects liberally. If you throw an intern in the trash for Establish Dominance, the pause menu brings them back.
  • Do the printer tasks together. Scanning yourself, printing the $1,000 bill, and scanning the frog can all happen in one trip to the printer.
  • Leave Expensive Taste for last. It requires every shop item plus all 100 interns, so it will be your final purchase spree.

FAQ About Worming from Home Wormchievements

How long does it take to unlock every Worming from Home wormchievement? Player experience suggests roughly eight hours for a full completion run. The bulk of that time is spent grinding money for Expensive Taste and the two upgrade trees rather than hunting difficult challenges.

Do I still need to beat Wormhole Torment Mode for 100%? No. The 1.0.3 update removed Torment Mode from the achievement list. You only need to navigate the Wormhole for Whole Lotta Worm. Beating Torment Mode still earns you a wall plaque as a badge of honor.

Why didn't Transcendental Invertebrate unlock when I finished everything? This achievement, which requires unlocking all other achievements, sometimes lags behind. Community reports say the fix is simple: close the game completely, relaunch it, and check the list again. Players who had a full list before the 1.0.3 update should receive it automatically on their next launch.

What is the fastest way to earn money for Expensive Taste? Stack both upgrade trees, buy interns early so they generate income over time, and trade high volume to trigger Day Trader along the way. Since Expensive Taste includes all 100 interns, every dollar you reinvest into staff pays you back twice.

Whether you are chasing a clean 100% or just want the funnier unlocks, this list covers the whole path. Start with the story achievements, fund the upgrades, and save the shop sweep for last — the wormchievements will fall into place from there.
