0451
Jamie reset the fuse box

After Jamie repairs the fuse box
inside the hotel, we reach the locked room with a keypad on the wall,
where we must enter the code 0451 to open the door. Inside, we have to reset the fuse box by pressing
the buttons in
the correct sequence. It's part of the story, which means you can't miss this trophy.
Rekindled
Kate and Mark rekindled their relationship
This trophy takes place in three different chapters and unlocks once Mark and Kate
kiss at the start of "Wall". We need to follow the correct dialogue path in each chapter to reach this
outcome.

Ignited
Jamie chose to save Erin in the suffocation chamber
Chapter: Breathless

Kate and Erin, we must select the option to kill Kate.
I Like Money
Collected 200 obols
Chapter: Workshop
Obols are collectible coins with values of 1, 2, 5, and 10,
scattered throughout the
game. To unlock this trophy, we need a total of 200 Obols. It is not possible to collect all of them in
a single playthrough, but our total carries over between playthroughs and via chapter select. Luckily we
can
farm Obols quickly, in the workshop.
- Once we gain control of Mark, pick up the Obol worth 10 near the
starting area.
- After collecting it, quit to the main menu.
- Restart Chapter: Workshop, do not choose "Continue", as the Obol will already be
marked as collected.
- Repeat this process until the trophy unlocks.
Shocking
Fixed all of the fuse boxes
There have been reports, that the trophy doesn't unlock if we fail to fix one of the
boxes on first try. We must restore three fuse boxes for this. The first is found in
the chapter "Island" while Jamie and Kate are exploring. The remaining two are inside the hotel, located
in
the chapters "Staff Only" and "Interrogation". In both of these, Jamie is required to reset the fuse
boxes early in the chapter. All three must be restored to progress the story anyways.
Phoenix

Chapter: Ignition

Disposal".
Shattering Expectations

- Select APOLOGETIC: "I can't let myself die."

Happier Ending
The dog made it off the island alive
To ensure Connie the dog survives, follow these steps:
- In Chapter: Homestead, we must reach the farmhouse with both Jamie and Kate alive. As Jamie,
select
the ANXIOUS dialogue option to instruct Kate to hide when prompted.
- Soon after, a QTE appears where Jamie can stab Connie with a broken bottle. We do nothing during
this prompt.
Note: If only Kate is alive at this point, simply refrain from stabbing the dog when the QTE
appears. The
dog will bark, but Kate and Connie will both survive for the rest of the story.
Happy Ending
Everyone survived
In general it is recommended to pass all QTE and Keep Calm sequences to ensure our
characters stay alive and healthy. Apart from that we have to make some decisions that will be a matter
of life and death:
- Chapter: Blackout - We take the inhaler from Du'Met to keep Erin alive. We must remember to use
the inhaler 2 to 3 times whenever prompted throughout the game to maintain her survival.
- Chapter: Silver Ash - After some exploration, we hear Jamie’s voice instructing us to hide
inside a cupboard. We follow her direction and hide accordingly.
- Chapter: Ignition - When trapped in the incinerator, we choose to open the grate on the ground
twice to save Charlie’s life.
- Chapter: Breathless - When trapped with Kate and Erin, we choose to kill Kate, as this decision
results in Kate and Erin surviving.
- Chapters: Director's Suite and Reflection - Either Jamie or Kate will hold the screwdriver. When
trapped, we must ensure that the person with the screwdriver directs the glass towards
themselves: If Jamie has the screwdriver, we select DEFIANT: "I'm not playing his game" and do
not press the button. If Kate holds it, we select APOLOGETIC: "I can't let myself die" and press
the button.
- Chapter: Chase - After Du'Met captures Jamie on the roof, we need to actively save her to keep
her alive.
- Chapter: Maze - When entering the barn with the axe outside, we choose to run, not climb, with
Erin and Jamie to avoid Erin’s death.
- Chapter: Homestead - We have Jamie say ANXIOUS: "Hide!" to instruct Kate to hide. Failing this
will result in Jamie’s death. We also avoid stabbing the dog during the hiding sequence,
allowing the dog to bark and bring Du'Met’s attention, but protecting all characters.
- Chapter: Lighthouse - If we previously heard Charlie’s recording, we choose REASSURING to keep
Charlie alive.
- Chapter: Lake - After the boat explosion and Du'Met’s attack on the cop, Erin should be
AUTHORITATIVE: "Grab The Gun!" to ensure picking up the pepper spray. We must succeed in all
QTEs on the boat. When Du'Met tries to push Mark’s head into the axe, Kate should ATTACK him.
Afterward, we choose to use the pepper spray or, alternatively, the drill bit collected earlier.
Hope You Enjoyed Your Stay
Completed the Solo Story
This should unlock after the credits are over. However if it didn't, you may need to
replay the final chapter.
Step 2 - Chapter reloads to clean up some trophies. (Theatrical Cut)
It's recommeded to use our playthrough where everyone survived to get 5 additional trophies done, just in
case we accidentally overwrite our saves.
Guilty
The crew didn't trust Charlie and he paid the price
In "Silver Ash", as Erin, ensure she listens to the recording of Charlie behind the
curtains
while exploring the main room. Continue to make all other survival choices favoring Erin and Charlie
throughout the game to keep them
alive until the reunion in "Lighthouse". When Erin, Charlie, and Mark reunite, play as Mark and select
the dialogue
option AFRAID: "We can't let Charlie free." This will result in Charlie being tied up and left alone.
The trophy pops at the end of this chapter.
Extinguished
Jamie chose to sacrifice herself in the glass trap
Chapter: Director's Suite
- Have Jamie give the screwdriver to Kate.
- Later, when trapped in the glass room, as Jamie select DEFIANT: "I'm not playing his game."
- When prompted with the button to reverse the glass wall, do not press it.
Can You Pet The Dog?
Yes, you can pet the dog
We need to ensure that Mark is alive and Charlie is dead before reaching
"Cliffside".
Charlie can be killed in "Ignition" or in "Waste Disposal". In "Cliffside", we will control Mark. When
Mark encounters the dog, do not throw the rock at the
dog when prompted. Simply let the timer run out. This allows Mark to pet the dog.
Award Worthy
Kate fell for Du'Met's impersonation
Please refer to The Cycle Continues. It's noteworthy that this particular
trophy is not unlockable in Curator's Cut.
The Cycle Continues
Mark agreed to Du'Met's proposal
We start in "Blackout" and choose the ATTACK option with Erin to get her
killed early. Continue playing until "Ignition", where we choose FORCE DOOR twice to cause Charlie's
death.
To kill Jamie, we make sure she gives the screwdriver to Kate during "Director's Suite". Then, in
the glass trap, we play as Jamie and choose DEFIANT: "I'm not playing his game," and don't press the
button.
With these three characters dead, we focus on keeping Kate and Mark alive, successfully completing all
QTEs
and Keep Calm sequences. During "Reunion", select HELP MARK when Kate arrives at the lighthouse. This
choice unlocks
Award Worthy. We then AGREE to what we're told and follow through without deviation.
Unhappy Ending
No-one survived
Just load "Lake" and fail all quick-time events on the boat during the final
sequence.

missing photos and secrets.

appears.
