I’ll be honest—Kudos in Temtem: Swarm can feel confusing at first. You unlock some just by playing, others need very specific conditions, and a few are tied to things you’d never think of unless you saw a guide. The game doesn’t really hold your hand here.
So instead of just listing everything like a checklist, I’m going to walk you through it in a way that actually helps you understand what you’re doing and why—and then we’ll cover every single kudo from the guide without skipping anything.

Temtem Swarm Kudos Guide – All Achievements, Unlock
Think of Kudos as:
- Achievements
- Progress markers
- Unlock requirements for stronger builds
Some are:
- Passive (just play the game)
- Skill-based (damage, bosses, survival)
- Strategy-based (specific builds or choices)
Also:
- Many Kudos overlap with synergy unlocks
- So grinding smart = double progress
