I am almost positive I am talking to all the Wilikins but the achievement doesn't unlock, is there one hidden or something?

I did this last night - make sure you visit all of the areas as there is an area I missed the first time around with 2 of them there.

Inside 2 Caves are Wilikins, 2 who talk to you too. You need one time the big bomb to open one from the cave and change the machine to talk to them.

Here is a list of all the Wilikins that I know of please tell me if I am missing something. At first there are six sleeping Wilikins when I turn it to the Wilikin world the baby strangely disappears, leaving five the only one you can talk to is Livingston, before crossing the bridge. Then you enter the town and you can see three more Wilikins the only one you can talk to is Westmister. The fist house on the left only has a ghost in it which you can't talk to. The next house on the left has three Wilikins all of which you can talk to. The last house on the left has two in it, both you can talk to one of which is a Skystones player. All three houses on the right has two Wilikins in each all of which you can talk to. The house to the north of town has two in it both you can talk to. The house on the hill has two in it, both you can talk to, one is a skystones player. There is one just outside the town gate. The next is in the cave you have to blow up the door to get into. The next is in the next cave. The next town has one in it. In the house on the left it has Oric. The middle house has one in it that you can talk to. The house on the right has two in it. and the final one is just before the boss fight.

Am I missing any or is there a way to talk to one of the ones that don't seem to talk?

I read in another forum that a person had issues with the task and found that it only recorded the cheev if he let the Wilikins say their entire spiels and not press B to interrupt them.

No one else corroborated that but I must admit that I let them all talk through to make sure, myself.

I think you have to play Skystones with all the Skystone-playing Wilikin for the game to consider them as having been spoken to. This wasn't triggering for me either, and that is literally the only thing I did differently when I got the Trophy, so I'd say give it a shot.

Just got this achievement tonight. I talked to everyone in the two towns and then one person in each of the two caves. I did play Skystones when asked, but I skipped the conservations once they started. Possible people you are missing.... the kid behind the puzzle lock in the first town. Also in the first town, the characters in the red house towards the back on the left side (use the bounce pad to reach).

The achievement unlocked after I opened the three key gate in the second town... before the boss.

I had trouble getting this, which is how I found this topic, but I found a list which, though not entirely accurate, helped me get it. Here are my findings.

Possible Rules:

  • You need to get this the first time playing the level.
  • FALSE. Achievements would be impossible that way, and it must have been my tenth time through when I got it.
  • You have to let them finish talking.
  • FALSE. I interrupted a few to make sure of this, I still got it.
  • You have to talk to Auric.
  • FALSE. He's not a Wilikin, the Achievement is specifically to talk to all the Wilikin. I specifically didn't talk to him, though I visited his house.
  • You have to re-talk to people who automatically talked to you.
  • UNKNOWN. I might have, just to be sure, but I think I might not have gotten everybody.
  • You have to talk to everyone listed below.
  • UNKNOWN. There are a couple who might be optional (such as Seraphina talking about the floor things, and maybe you don't have to talk to her both these times), but this is who I talked to when I got it.
  • I got 3 stars, I've been everywhere, I must have this.
  • FALSE. I had 3 stars, I didn't have it. Just because you've been to every area doesn't mean you talked to everybody, or have talked to everybody in one playthrough.

In Helena's House I initially missed the girl Hazel behind the lock because I had already gotten the Treasure Chest in the "cell" and didn't see her to open it again. During my truly initial playthrough I was playing with someone who plays with a "Go go go, farther further farther" mentality, so it's quite believable we didn't talk to everybody.

It's easy to miss Seraphina every time, because each time you're naturally in the real world, you have to choose to switch to Wilikin world before encountering her.

Here's the list of Wilikins I spoke with:
Starting Area -
Next to the bridge: 2 (Livingston before, "Welcome to the island of the Wilikin" and Westminster after, "Monsters are bad", he's wearing a top hat)

Houses on the Left, bottom to top -
Abandoned House: 0 (Can't talk to the ghost, didn't even enter the house)
Doll Day Care: 3 (Linda and the two babies Klaus and Fitz)
Rutherford's: 2 (Courtland and Rutherford [Skystones])

Houses on the right, top to bottom -
Helena's House: 2 (Helena and Hazel in the "cell")
Hamilton Landing: 2 (Hamilton "Hi there" and Wellsley)
Carlton's: 2 (Chamberlin and Carlton)

Town Hall-looking house, middle back -
Stephanie's House: 2 (Olivia and little girl Stephanie)

Use bounce pad to get to top of the hill -
Catherine's House: 2 (Emerson "I hid the town key" and Catherine [Skystones])

That's the whole initial area, Facadeville. Use the two town keys to open the door and...

Next to Earth Gate -
By Mud Flats to introduce it: 1 (Elizabeth)
(She's outside the gate, so you don't need to open it for this achievement, I didn't)

The next section there's a big bomb to blow open two doors. The first lets you into Wing Caves (switch back to Wilikin World before entering the cave).

Next to the big bomb behind a brick wall -
Wing Caves: 1 (Seraphina, tells you about the magic floor things)

Then nobody to talk to for a while as you navigate the cliffs, until you enter another cave with magic floor things, Roc's Elbow. The entrance is under where the Legendary Treasure is/was, you exit at another rolling bomb.

After navigating the cliffside -
Roc's Elbow: 1 (Seraphina again)

After pushing the large bomb down the winding path and reaching another town square...

Three houses facing a town square -
Lower Facadeville: 1 (Erickson)
Talk to him as soon as you enter, he's gone later

Three houses -
Left (Wood Shop): 0 (Auric doesn't count)
Right (Evie's Puzzle Place): 2 (Suzanne and Evie)
Middle (Kate's Keyroom): 1 (Kate)

I do it in this order because getting the key from Kate triggers the big fight, which ends up in the real world.

Once you open the 3-key door (switch back to Wilikin World before opening the door), you get a cutscene where Seraphina talks to you about the Chompy Mage. The Achievement pops when this cutscene starts, if it doesn't you missed someone.

Good luck!

I believe the first time I did it, i missed the guys right at the start. NO you do not need to listen to them. I also found when playing co op, i just made sure i was the one who talked to them. because the first time my fiance was doing it too. It was sooooo easy to get! Just make sure you go in all the houses and areas. and you'll be fine. Its not rocket science.
