Why is this game considered Achievement Spam?

    Game in question: Hero of the Kingdom III (Hero of the Kingdom III Achievements)

    It's a point & click/hidden object RPG hybrid with 57 achievements (not really a huge amount). There are 7 or 8 skills and each skill has three achievements related to it, which involve collecting various multiples of the resource associated with that skill. The rest of the achievements are story related.

    The game takes 10+ hours to 100% and none of the achievements are awarded at the same time.

    Even though the achievements don't require much skill, they do require hours of grinding which hardly makes them spam. A similar game would be RPG MO (RPG MO Achievements) which has a similar structure of awarding achievements for different skill milestones. Hell, even Logistical has a ton of "complete X towns" achievements; the only reason the whole game doesn't have a high completion rate like this one is because there are literally 5k achievements and most people probably don't have the time for that.

    I would ask that this game be reconsidered as not spam.

    Thanks for letting us know. I've removed the Spam Game filter from this game as per your reasoning.
