Scritchy Scratchy badge collection and Achievement Tips

Build a plan for your Scritchy Scratchy badge collection

A full Scritchy Scratchy badge collection asks you to do more than scratch tickets: you’ll need to manage catalogs, use automation, and take a few deliberate risks. Knowing which achievements depend on a specific ticket or game state can save you from finishing a run and realizing you missed one. This guide organizes the Scritchy Scratchy badge collection around those requirements, using a player video as its source for unlock conditions and strategies.

Some achievements involve luck, while others reward careful timing or steady day-job income. A useful approach is to note the requirements that can be missed—such as winning on your first scratch or leaving a catalog on the table—and take care of them before progressing.

Achievement	Requirement described in the player video	Practical tip
Gambling never pays off	Finish the first catalog in your first playthrough	Complete this during your initial run.
A losing bet	Finish and scratch the second catalog’s Final Chance ticket	Keep track of which catalog’s Final Chance you are approaching.
Go for broke	Finish and scratch the third catalog’s Final Chance ticket	Plan for this during catalog progression.
House always wins	Finish and scratch the fourth catalog’s Final Chance ticket	This is tied to the fourth catalog.
Skip a catalog	Scratch a Final Chance ticket while a catalog remains on the table	Leave a catalog uncollected; the subscription box may still buy its tickets.
Win everything	Scratch any Final Chance ticket without dying	The video suggests making artificial souls and trying Final Chance tickets until you win.

Luck, jackpots, and ticket wins

Several achievements in the Scritchy Scratchy badge collection depend on the size or type of a win. The player video describes three prize thresholds, a Super Jackpot, and a jackpot on the first ticket scratched. Upgrade your luck and multiplier where available, but remember that a large payout and a jackpot are separate conditions.

For the first-scratch achievement, the video specifically warns that a ticket scratched by the Scratch Bot does not count. If you miss the jackpot on your first scratch, its suggested reset strategy is to abandon or prestige the run and try again.

Achievement	Requirement	Strategy from the player video
What are the odds?	Win a Super Jackpot	Upgrade Scratch Luck.
Lucky ticket	Win a prize at least 1,000 times the ticket’s cost	The video says this can also come from the day job; upgrade play masteries to improve day-job payouts and jackpot chances.
Big win	Win a prize at least 10,000 times the ticket’s cost	Improve Scratch Luck, Lucky Cat tickets, and the multiplier from the skill tree.
High level gambling	Win a prize at least 100,000 times the ticket’s cost	Upgrade Scratch Luck, multiplier, and warp speed; the video recommends Scratch My Back from Catalog 2.
Lucky cat	Have your cat scratch a Super Jackpot	The video suggests leveling Scratch Luck, Scratch Bot, and Window.
Good luck	Win a jackpot on your first scratch	Scratch the ticket yourself, not with the Scratch Bot; if you miss, the video suggests restarting the run.
Winning streak	Win a jackpot on tickets from all four catalogs and the day job	Stick with each ticket until you hit a jackpot before moving on.

The multiplier achievements call for increasingly large wins, so treat them as longer-term goals if the required upgrades are not yet available. For Winning streak, keep a simple checklist of tickets and the day job; the player video recommends moving to the next ticket only after landing a jackpot on the current one.

Day-job income and automation

A few achievements in the Scritchy Scratchy badge collection are easier to plan around the day job because they do not require buying scratch-offs. The video describes Honest work as earning 2,000 coins without buying one, and Workaholic as reaching 20 million coins under the same restriction. For Workaholic, it recommends maximizing plate masteries. Avoid buying tickets while pursuing either condition, since the no-purchase requirement is central to both.

Other day-job achievements have their own conditions. Bad luck requires breaking two plates in a row, and you must collect the plates yourself; according to the video, the achievement will not unlock if Mundo collects them. Win your job requires a jackpot on the day job, for which the video points to the Fine Dining perk.

Achievement	Requirement	Useful detail
Honest work	Earn 2,000 coins without buying a scratch-off	Use day-job income and plate perks.
Workaholic	Have 20 million coins without buying a scratch-off	The video recommends maxing plate masteries.
Bad luck	Break two plates in a row at the day job	The video says to collect the plates yourself; Scratch Bot can help win plates.
Win your job	Win a jackpot on the day job	Redeem the Fine Dining perk from the skill tree.
Clicker mini game	Buy and insert 100 tickets into the Scratch Bot	The video suggests buying many Two Win tickets.
Idle game	Start a run with all automation gadgets	Redeem Air Condition, Pet Lovers, Star Ticket, Fully Automated, and Time Travel perks.
Naptime	Stay AFK with under one action for at least five minutes	The video recommends upgrading Scratch Luck multiplier and warp speed before leaving the game running.

Automation helps with some tasks, but it does not replace every manual action. In particular, the video distinguishes the first-scratch jackpot from Scratch Bot results and calls for personally collecting plates for Bad luck. Check the achievement requirement before letting a gadget handle the relevant action.

Night Market, gadgets, and special actions

The Night Market in the Scritchy Scratchy badge collection is both an unlock and a source of cosmetic items. The player video says to redeem the Night Market skill-tree perk, then enter it from the top-left corner of the table during a run. Once unlocked, achievements can award Night Market tickets, which are used to buy cosmetics.

Walk-in closet requires every cosmetic item in the Night Market. The video estimates that this takes 538 Night Market tickets, or around 27 to 31 badges because the number of tickets awarded varies. Treat those figures as estimates from the player video, and keep track of your own balance.

Achievement	Requirement	How the player video says to approach it
Visit the night market	Redeem and visit the Night Market	Unlock it in the skill tree, then enter from the table.
Walk-in closet	Buy every Night Market cosmetic	Save tickets; the video estimates 538 tickets, with badge rewards varying.
Don’t read the fine print	Take out a loan	Visit Debt; the video suggests scratching Lucky Cat tickets with low Scratch Luck.
Why?	Scratch a jackpot ticket, then put it in the trash	Discard the jackpot ticket instead of keeping it.
Wizard	Buy and use a spell book on any ticket	The video says to buy one during a run or redeem it from the skill tree for 35 jackpots.
Soul siphon	Create an artificial soul	Buy the machine from Gadgets for 1,000 coins, then insert portions of five coins and wait.
Time machine	Upgrade the egg timer to five times its speed	First finish Catalog 4, then upgrade the egg’s work speed three times.
Faithful servant	Win a jackpot on Final Chance and give it to the corporation	The video says to wait around five minutes for someone to collect it.

For Bad kitty, the video recommends buying the Scratchbot bundle, keeping Scratch Luck low, and choosing tickets with a higher chance of negative payouts. The intended outcome is bankruptcy caused by the bundle. Since this depends on outcomes, consider it a task to work on while pursuing other achievements rather than a guaranteed quick unlock.

The video also describes One of each, please as having all tickets in the game on the table at once. It recommends finishing a run and buying tickets from the bottom up. For Speedrun, the condition is finishing the game in under 30 minutes; the video suggests redeeming perks such as Booster Kit, Allowance, Magic, and the maxed-out tool.

Finish the remaining achievements

Once the catalog, luck, and day-job requirements are covered, use the Scritchy Scratchy badge collection checklist for achievements that depend on a particular game state or a long wait. Maxed out skill tree requires buying every prestige upgrade; the video recommends collecting jackpots and Super Jackpots, finishing the run, and repeating until everything is redeemed. Achievement hunter is the completion award for unlocking all achievements.

Achievement	Requirement	Reminder
Spend all the world’s money	Buy the third catalog’s Final Chance ticket	The video describes this as a specific purchase.
One of each, please	Have every ticket on the table at once	Buy tickets from the bottom up after finishing a run.
Speedrun	Finish the game in under 30 minutes	Prepare useful perks before attempting it.
Maxed out skill tree	Buy all prestige upgrades	You may need repeated runs to redeem everything.
Achievement hunter	Unlock all achievements	Complete the full set.

A few requirements are easy to confuse. Spend all the world’s money is described as buying a particular Final Chance ticket, while Go for broke and House always wins require finishing and scratching the third and fourth catalogs’ Final Chance tickets. Keep those tasks distinct in your checklist.
