Introduction:
Broken Sword: The Serpents Curse is a traditional point and click adventure game, and as such, it is pretty hard NOT to get all of the achievements as you progress through the game. That being said ALL of the non-secret (i.e. non-story) related achievements are missable - so pay special attention to getting those out of the way as and when they crop up. Failure to snag those will result in a second playthrough.
To avoid any potential mishaps, you can save at any time so feel free to make multiple saves in case you do mess up.
Many thanks to Moosh over at PST for letting me use her images for a few of the achievements.
Step 1: Play through the story
I've prepared a complete step by step guide (see here) for you to use while playing the game. With this you will get ALL achievements in one playthrough. Feel free to take your time and enjoy the plot.
Step 2: Mop Up
If for any reason you missed an achievement or one didn't pop up, then you have two options either start a new playthough - or revert to an earlier save.
Conclusion
This is a nice and easy point and click adventure that you should be able to get through in no time at all with a guide, or slightly more time without. Pay attention to the missable achievements first and foremost, as if you forget one it could mean another run through. Otherwise all story achievements will pop as you progress and cannot be missed. Enjoy.

WALKTHROUGH
Guide is now complete.
Any issues or corrections then just let me know. I will try and NOT mention the story or post any spoilers except for where it is required in order to further your progress. So obviously don't read too far ahead if you haven't played the game yet. Fair warning.
Away we go:
Le Lezard Bleu - Art Gallery
You control George to begin with. Highlighting any object will allow you to interact with it, so talking with people or examining/picking up items etc, or you can just click on the floor and side of the screen to walk.

Some objects will also pop up as a conversation option when talking to people.
Generally when you are talking with folks, try and go through EVERY option. As that way you get more story and will unlock further clues, locations etc. I'll tell you the options you have to pick though (or at least the ones I did). Tutorial over, let's begin.
