PEAK tests your adventure and survival skills to the maximum, having you embark on a journey where you scale to the top of an island. While the game may be all about how effectively you can manage yourself with limited resources and gear, one thing you don’t need to worry about is time. That is, unless you wish to unlock a certain achievement.

In this article, we will explore how to unlock the Speed Climber badge/accolade and messenger cap in PEAK.

While the game doesn’t provoke you to finish the game within a certain period of time, one of the achievements in the game goes the extra mile to test that skill. The Plunderer Badge/Accolade in question requires that you complete a single run within an hour.

This challenge proves to be a trickier one to complete and also a bit reliant on your luck. Due to the map reset feature in PEAK, the map tends to reset once every 24 hours. This is reflected during your current session, and the changes will automatically apply in the areas that have not been loaded into your map.

Depending upon when you start the game, you may get lucky with a certain map, which has fewer obstacles in your way and a path more feasible and less risky to climb past. Apart from that, collecting the right type of resources is essential, but that also means not going out of your way to pick them.

Each step towards completing this badge is crucial, and actions like detouring, resting at campsites, and opening luggage eat away unnecessary time and slow down your push. Only consider picking items in your path, unless they are resourceful. Most of all, use stamina sparingly to avoid falls and waste precious reclimb time.
