How to Unlock It

The confirmed method comes from a Steam discussion on October 1, 2026. Player Cenerina explained the steps, and the original poster confirmed the achievement unlocked:

1. Press Z — Otto will sit down.
2. Stay seated for a few seconds and the achievement pops (Steam discussion).

That's the whole process. No specific spot, item, or story progress was reported as necessary by the players in that thread.

Why Waiting Around Doesn't Work

In the same October 1 thread, the original poster reported leaving the keyboard unattended for three minutes and seeing Otto neither sit nor trigger anything. Based on that single player report, idle time alone did not unlock the achievement for them — the sit input was what made the difference. Other players' experiences with idling may vary, but the reliable route described by players is pressing the sit key directly.

Keyboard Binding Caveat

The Z sit key was reported as the PC default by players in the discussion. If Z does nothing for you, check your key bindings in the game's settings menu and use whatever is assigned to the sit action. This is general PC gaming advice rather than a documented game feature.

FAQ

Do I need to sit in a specific place? No location requirement was reported by players.

Is there an exact timer? No exact duration was confirmed — players described it as a few seconds after sitting.

Does a controller use Z too? Controller bindings were not confirmed in the sources, so check your in-game control settings.
