Genesis Alpha One Trophy Guide

Master of the Genesis
Unlock all trophies.

Unlock all other trophies and this one will pop.

Ash
Initiate a genesis with at least 20 aliens/eggs on board.

There are areas that are marked green/yellow/red with cosmic spores. Fly towards them and disable your shields. After a while, your ship will get infected with a lot of eggs/creatures. Initiate a genesis and this trophy should pop.

Everyone Counts
Complete a round where no crew member died on the journey.

This mission is all about not dying. Stay out of high/crucial danger area’s and try to find a Genesis planet nearby. If lucky you will find an O2 planet, for which you can use the basic humans. Don’t go near Framen and Mechanics and your chances of dying will decrease. The only challenge will be killing the giant spider on the Genesis planet. Make sure you take some tier 3 weapons, also take some turrets and shields with you.

If you are really having trouble, back-up the save file to a USB-stick or the cloud. You will be able to reload should a crew member die.

Trying this in NG+ won’t work!

Loyalty
Unlock all corporations.

There are a total of 12 corporations that need to be unlocked. The unlock requirements are all linked to an in-game trophy, making this trophy relative easy.

All requirements need to be met during a single mission.

Monolithic
Unlock all artefacts.

Artefacts are found at sites. They contain information about creatures, resources, genesis planets. They can also contain new modules and upgrades.

The modules found are random and there is no way to tell where you can find a specific artefact.

You can view the artefacts in the main menu, under “YOUR ARTEFACTS” when creating a new game. A question marks means you still need to find it.

Star Civilisation
Unlock all species.

For this trophy, all species will need to be unlocked. This is done by finishing a genesis with over 50% of that specific specimen as your crew. For example:
5 Humans, 3 Roks and 10 Zeleny’s will unlock the Zeleny specimen because they hold over 50% of your population.

You will need to do this for each specimen, there are a total of 10. Being:
Human, Arachnoid Kraul, Liquid, Mantiz, Inferno, Rok, Zeleny, Holo and Dekkah.

The bridge has a search function that can be used to track down each specimen. Genesis planets can be found by assigning crew members to your bridge. This will allow them to scan the galaxy nearby, and increasing the chance of finding a Genesis planet.
