What is the highlighted achievement?

The one highlighted achievement named on the store page is Next Stop: Escape Academy. It appears in the highlighted set shown on the store listing, alongside other highlighted achievements that are marked as secret and whose names are not listed.

So if you are scanning the store page for achievement names, Next Stop: Escape Academy is the one you will actually see spelled out.

Are some Escape Academy achievements hidden?

Yes — some of the highlighted achievements on the store page are secret, and their names are not listed. The store listing therefore flags that hidden achievements exist without naming them.

Does Tournament of Puzzles add achievements?

Yes. The official store description for Escape Academy states that the Tournament of Puzzles content update, headlined by Coach Yoach, includes "additional achievements" on top of the three new arenas, three new game modes and puzzle power-ups.

The description does not give a number for those additions, so the 40 total on the store page remains the only overall tally listed there.

Do you need the DLC achievements for 100 percent?

Tallying everything on the list means earning all 40. Walkthrough King's guide to the game, which covers the Prologue, all three chapters, Anti-Escape Island, The Past and Tournament of Puzzles, lists the achievement tally as completed at 40/40 — according to Walkthrough King.

For comparison, the sequel has its own separate list: TheGamer's achievement guide for Escape Academy 2: Back 2 School notes that most of those achievements are tied to unmissable story progression and quests, with a handful requiring side activities and secrets.
