I have now a good experience in the achievements of GOG, and over time I have encountered numerous games that have them completely broken, or that have fewer errors in their graphics or title, so I decided to make a list of all the bugs and errors that I have encountered so far.
If you have more bugs to report, you are welcome, and I invite you all to contact GOG and as well the relative game customer support to ask them to fix the bugs as soon as possible. I have already reported many of them, but very few have been fixed and many other achievements are still broken, so I hope that more reports can speed things up.
This thread serves as an aid to players and developers to improve the experience of the games, so please don't derail in off-topic discussions.
Patias has created a Discord server where we can discuss Galaxy achievements, bugs, and help each other with the more difficult ones, with a small growing community, you're welcome!
https://discord.gg/g44CFpU
If you are even minimally interested in the achievements, please vote for these wishlists, they are of enormous importance to convince a dev or publisher that GOG users want the achievements for games that have them on Steam:
Show achievement progress
Achievement support for compatible games
Please add achievements for games that already have them on Steam
Improve the quality of Galaxy achievements icons
MISSING AND BROKEN GALAXY ACHIEVEMENTS

This is the master list of all the games that don't have the achievements on GOG Galaxy while they have them on Steam, and includes games with broken or partially missing achievements. Thanks to omega64 for creating the list framework.
As always let me know if you notice inaccuracies or errors.
______________________________________________________________________________________________
Glossary:
Invisible Achievements (Development Mode)
Achievements that work correctly but that the developers forgot to make visible through Galaxy or the GOG Profile. When a user unlocks one of these achievements, it becomes visible. This is a feature of GOG GALAXY SDK expressly created to allow developers to work on implementing the achievements, but it should be switched once the game is officially launched. It's easily fixed by notifying the developers or GOG support.
See the official documentation at the following link:

______________________________________________________________________________________________
Helpful hints:
Absolute Drift
Achievements all work, but they are sometimes triggered with a delay for some reason. So always be sure to wait a few minutes before quit the game, especially if you think you should have unlocked an achievement.
Battle Planet - Judgement Day
Don't upgrade anything in the character selection screen, or the corresponding achievements won't be unlocked.
Control Ultimate Edition
"Crisis Managment" and "Ritual Initiation" are apparently doable only in a single session. The user Phoechan has written an exhaustive guide to get them easily, available at this link:
https://www.gog.com/forum/control/ritual_intuition_crisis_management_achievements
Deponia
Some achievements of the games of this saga are problematic or confusing. The user Ice_Mage has collected all the available guides and tricks in a handy thread:
https://www.gog.com/forum/deponia_series/bugged_and_annoying_achievements_master_of_switches_droggeljug_cheater_pinup_goal_ornithorhync
Evoland 1
Has achievements which the game keeps track of internally but provides no way for you to check what you have.
(Ask the developers to include the achievements for a complete gaming experience! support at shirogames dot com)
Evoland Legendary Edition
You must be online to unlock the achievements. Every other time you start the game, achievements don't unlock, so close and re-open the program until they start working. There are in-game indications for when an achievement unlocks, so if you don't get a Galaxy achievement at the same time, close and re-open the game without saving and try again. The Steam version has this same issue.
Factory Town
Most of the achievements unlock with a delay, and sometimes they don't unlock at all unless you follow a specific procedure. The user TheScorcher made a post about it here: https://www.gog.com/forum/factory_town/achievements_not_registering/post3
Flynn: Son of Crimson
'Hey There, Bax!' - find and speak to a certain character in 4 locations - this task needs to be done in a single play session, no quitting to the main menu or anything like that. The bug affects every platforms at the moment.
Journey to the Savage Planet
"We came, We Saw, We Kicked Its Ass" - The user A.M.R. wrote here a simple guide to unlock it easily:
https://www.gog.com/forum/general/list_of_broken_gog_achievements/post628
Mark of the Ninja: Remastered
Achievements can fail randomly: probably if you are offline or if the game crashes after completing a level. If it happens you'll have to delete the save file and try again.
Mary Skelter: Nightmares
Save the game before facing a boss, because you may not receive the relative achievement at the first attempt.
Metro: Last Light Redux
"Rabbit" and "Clean Escape" can be broken. Back up your appdata config file, then do a hard reset on both config files, then run as admin. https://steamcommunity.com/app/287390/discussions/1/350533172696204234
Of Orcs And Men
Achievements can fail randomly: Keep a save just before the moment when an achievement should be unlocked and try it again on a clean run with a very small number of saves, that seemed to increase the chances of unlocking.
Pizza Possum
The "Give me your chippies!" achievement of Pizza Possum seems buggy sometimes, even on Steam.
You can solve this by editing the stats.json located in \AppData\LocalLow\Cosy Computer\PizzaPossum\storage.
Just set the entry "NPC Furthest Distance From Home": to 0.0 and try to get the achievement again.
The Legend of Bum-Bo
It requires a mod to fix a bug which would otherwise make getting all the achievements impossible:
https://github.com/JeffAdriaanse/The-Legend-of-Bum-bo-Windfall
This War of Mine
Note: Malik on Duty may not unlock properly. The user Ice_Mage wrote a short guide to unlock this achievement and others:
https://www.gog.com/forum/this_war_of_mine/bless_the_radio_and_malik_on_duty_achievements_are_bugged
Trails to Azure
Achievements don't work as long as one decides to import a save from Trails from Zero.
Wolfenstein: The New Order
Achievements can fail randomly: if it happens disable cloud saves, delete local saves and config files and start a new game.
