Steam describes it as "Listen to your first tape and begin uncovering the truth". Below: how it compares with the achievements either side of it, where the real difficulty wall in this game sits, and what the percentage does and does not tell you.
How rare this actually is
0.5% of everyone who has played SILENT BREATH on Steam has this one, which is about one player in 200. That puts it 2nd hardest of the 32 achievements in the game. 1 achievement is rarer, and 30 are more common. For scale, the most common achievement in the game sits at 64.5% and the rarest at 0.1% — a spread of roughly 645 times between the two ends. The median achievement sits at 14.4%, so this one is in the harder half.
What sits either side of it
Just above it is KNOCK KNOCK at 0.9% (about 1 in 111). That one asks you to unlock the mysterious door. Just below it is FINAL ACT at 0.1% (about 1 in 1000). The step between them is 5x in players-per-unlock terms, which is the real measure of how much further you have to go.
Where the difficulty really jumps
The sharpest drop in the whole list is between STORY UNTOLD (0.5%) and FINAL ACT (0.1%) — completion falls by about 5x in a single step. That is where most players stop. This achievement sits before that wall, so it is part of what most players do finish.
