To get the Trickshot achievement in Mouthwashing, land a hit on Swansea in the graveyard with a shot fired the moment you finish a full 360-degree turn. Back into a corner, hold your aim, start spinning when the screen begins to blur as he closes in, and fire as the turn brings you back to face him.
It is one of the hardest achievements in the game. Steam’s global achievement stats show about 6 percent of Mouthwashing players on Steam have it as of November 7, 2026, and only Any% Glitched is rarer. It is also missable: the graveyard fight is your one chance in a playthrough. Below we cover what the achievement asks for, where the fight is and how it works, the method step by step, why it fails, whether no-clip helps, and what to do if the fight ends without it. Spoilers stay light: we describe the fight, not the story around it.
What Trickshot Asks For
Steam’s official description is “Shoot Swansea in the graveyard right after spinning 360 degrees.” It is a hidden achievement on Steam, so the description stays out of sight until you unlock it. It is on every list Mouthwashing has: the Xbox achievements and the PS5 trophies both include it, and the Switch version has no achievements at all.
Three things have to line up:
- A full turn. At least one complete 360-degree spin. Going a little past a full turn is fine.
- No pause. The shot has to come as the spin ends. If you stop, line up carefully and then fire, it is just an ordinary shot.
- A hit. A miss does nothing. Any hit on Swansea counts.
Where the Graveyard Fight Is
The fight comes near the end of the game, in a hallucination chapter titled Bizarro Chapter 1. Jimmy has a gun by then, and Swansea, the Tulpar’s mechanic, hunts him through a graveyard with an axe. It is not the earlier scene where you drug Swansea to get past the Utility room door; that one is in our guide to knocking out Swansea.
How the fight works:
- He comes from behind. Swansea attacks from the direction you are not facing. If you turn and spot him too early, he tends to dart away instead of closing in.
- The screen warns you. As he gets close, the picture blurs and fills with static, and his footsteps grow louder. Headphones help.
- Dying is not the end. If he kills you, you respawn at the same spot and the fight carries on. Every death counts toward The Good Ending.
- A few hits end it. The fight finishes once you have shot Swansea about three times, and an ordinary hit counts toward that total just as a trickshot does.
Wrong Organ’s first patch notes, released a week after the September 2024 launch, say “Swansea’s fight was adjusted to make hitting him more forgiving,” so landing a shot is easier now than in launch-week videos.
How to Get Trickshot, Step by Step
- Turn up your look sensitivity. Raise it in the options menu so a full turn takes less time. If you aim better turning steadily, a small bump is enough.
- Get The Good Ending first. Before you fire a single shot, let Swansea kill you 10 times. That unlocks The Good Ending (“Get killed by Swansea 10 times in the graveyard”) and uses up none of your hits. Standing with your face to a wall and waiting is the quickest way.
- Find a corner. Back into a corner or the end of a narrow lane, so Swansea can only reach you from one or two directions. Now you know where your spin has to finish.
- Aim first. The gun only fires while you aim, so hold the aim button (LT on an Xbox controller) before you start turning, and keep holding it.
- Look away from the lane and wait. Face the wall. Listen for footsteps and watch for the blur.
- Spin as he comes. When the static starts to build, turn a full circle, or a little more, so you finish facing the lane he is coming down.
- Fire at once. Shoot (RT on an Xbox controller) as the turn ends. If the shot lands, Trickshot unlocks on the spot.
If holding aim through the whole turn throws you off, the other way is to spin without aiming and pull the aim trigger just before you fire. Both can work, so use whichever feels steadier. A miss costs nothing, and if Swansea reaches you first, you respawn and try again.
Why Trickshot Is Not Working
- The spin stopped short. Half turns and three-quarter turns do not count. Spin past where you think a full circle ends.
- There was a pause. Stopping to line up the shot breaks the “right after” part. Fire as you come around.
- You never aimed. The gun does not fire without aiming, so the trigger does nothing on its own.
- You spun too early. Turning before he is close gives him time to dart off. Wait for the blur or the footsteps.
- The pop-up did not show. A missing notification does not always mean a missing achievement. Check the achievement list on your platform before you replay anything.
- An old version of the game. The same first patch “Fixed achievements not unlocking properly,” so keep Mouthwashing updated.
Can You Use No-Clip for Trickshot?
The PC version’s hidden Developer menu has a no-clip cheat, which the Any% Glitched achievement needs, and it can put you somewhere Swansea cannot reach. We could not confirm that Trickshot unlocks that way, and the method above depends on Swansea actually coming at you, because his approach is what tells you when to spin. Play the fight normally; the corner method works without cheats.
What to Do If the Fight Ends Without It
Once the last hit lands, the chapter moves on and Trickshot is gone for that playthrough. You still have options:
- Close the game straight away. Mouthwashing only saves at its screen-freezing datamosh glitch, which a Wrong Organ developer confirmed, as our guide to how to save in Mouthwashing explains. If you quit before the next glitch, Continue loads the last save, which may put you back before the graveyard.
- On PC, load a late chapter. The Developer menu opens with the tilde key, or with L3 and R3 together on a controller, and lets you jump to a chapter instead of replaying the whole game.
- On console, plan a replay. We could not confirm a chapter select on PS5 or Xbox, and Wrong Organ has not said whether the console versions keep the Developer menu. A full run takes about two to three hours, as our how long to beat guide covers.
If you are replaying anyway, the vents before the end are the other place most runs stall, and our guide to getting past the centipede covers them. For why an achievement for dying is called The Good Ending, see our guide to how many endings there are, and for everything else, our Mouthwashing hub.
