You must collect all sixteen records and play each one for at least one second on the gramophone next to Polendina at Hotel Krat.

Trophy: The Story of a Stranger Girl
Discover Eugénie’s final story.
Type: Bronze
Category: Missable
Unlock Details
This side quest is missable and can be completed during either a Good or Best ending run. Unlike most Humanity events, you must tell the truth here. Lying will lock you out of the trophy. After defeating the Black Rabbit Brotherhood in Relic of Trismegistus, continue upward and speak with Alidoro. Choose ATTACK HIM, then confirm the choice. A single strike will kill him and you will automatically receive Alidoro’s Cryptic Vessel. Return to Hotel Krat and ask Venigni to decipher the vessel. Once complete, speak with Eugenie and choose “HE WAS EUGENIE’S OLDER BROTHER.” This truth is required for the trophy. Rest at a Stargazer to reload the area, then speak to Eugenie again. After the follow up conversation and Humanity gain, the trophy unlocks.

Discover Geppetto’s final story.
Type: Bronze
Category: Missable

This trophy is tied to the Real Boy ending and is missable. You must choose GIVE YOUR HEART when speaking to Geppetto in Under the Abyss after defeating Simon Manus. This triggers the Real Boy ending and the final cutscenes. When prompted to begin New Game Plus, press Circle instead of confirming. Return to Hotel Krat and go upstairs to Geppetto’s study.

Trophy: The Story of the Blue Butterfly
Discover Sophia’s final story.
Type: Bronze
Category: Missable
Unlock Details
This trophy is missable and tied to the Rise of P ending path. It should be completed during a high Humanity playthrough. After defeating Laxasia the Complete, enter Sophia’s room and choose GIVE HER PEACE. This choice is mandatory. Later, after defeating Simon Manus, take the elevator down to Under the Abyss and speak with Geppetto. Choose REFUSE when he asks for your heart, then defeat the Nameless Puppet. After the ending cutscene, when prompted to start New Game Plus, press Circle instead. Return to Hotel Krat, go upstairs to Geppetto’s desk, and pick up The Blue Butterfly’s Letter. Open it from your inventory and read it fully. The trophy unlocks when you reach the final page.

Trophy: The Story of the Prince
Discover Venigni’s final story.
Type: Bronze
Category: Missable
Unlock Details
This trophy is tied to Venigni’s full side story and is missable. It is safest to complete during a high Humanity playthrough while going for the Rise of P ending, since certain dialogue triggers are more reliable with higher Humanity. First, in Lorenzini Arcade, pick up the book “Scandal! V, the Tragedy Behind the Flamboyance” from the toilet area near the Wandering Merchant by the fountain shortcut to the Stargazer. While some players report this is optional, collect it to be safe. Progress through the game, solve all of Arlecchino’s phone riddles, and open all five Trinity Sanctums so you can eventually meet him in person. Before speaking with Arlecchino at the final location, make sure you have already triggered Venigni’s dialogue at Hotel Krat about his parents being murdered by the puppet Arlecchino. This conversation commonly becomes available after defeating Laxasia the Complete, but keep checking Venigni after major story events. If his icon appears at Hotel Krat on the Stargazer fast travel screen, speak to him immediately. If you talk to Arlecchino before triggering Venigni’s dialogue, the trophy can potentially fail, though some reports say defeating Laxasia afterward may still unlock the needed conversation. Once Venigni’s dialogue has occurred, speak to Arlecchino and exhaust his conversation. Then read the book from your inventory and talk to Arlecchino again. A new option titled “The truth behind the Venigni Incident” will appear. Choose it to receive the Moon World Warrior Toy. Finally, return to Venigni at Hotel Krat and speak with him about the item. After the conversation about his past and the incident concludes, the trophy unlocks.

Trophy: The Story of the Refined Old Lady
Discover Antonia’s final story.
Type: Bronze
Category: Missable
Unlock Details
This side quest is missable and should be completed during a high Humanity playthrough while working toward the Rise of P ending. Several dialogue choices are mandatory. After defeating King of Puppets, return to Hotel Krat. A letter will appear at Polendina’s front desk asking you to meet him in the garden. During this conversation, you must lie. Choose “SHOW THE WEDDING RING” if you completed Julian’s quest and obtained the ring, or choose “I HAVE” if you do not have it. Any other response will lock you out of the quest. After defeating Champion Victor, return to Hotel Krat and speak to Polendina, then to Giangio. Give Giangio a Golden Coin Fruit so he can craft the Cure for Antonia. Once you receive it, speak to Polendina again and select “USE THE CURE.” If you refuse to administer the cure, the quest cannot be completed. After defeating the Puppet Devouring Green Monster, speak to Antonia and she will mention feeling better. Later, after defeating Laxasia the Complete, return to Hotel Krat and talk to Polendina. He will inform you that Antonia has passed away, and the trophy will unlock after the conversation. You can then go upstairs to Geppetto’s Study and interact with her wheelchair to obtain a letter and a missable record.

Trophy: End of Riddles
Discover all Trinity Sanctums.
Type: Silver
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
There are five Trinity Sanctums, and you unlock this trophy after opening and stepping inside the fifth one. To access them, you must answer Arlecchino’s phone riddles to receive Trinity Keys. There is no wrong answer, but one option grants Humanity. If you miss a ringing phone, you can later use the phone at Krat Central Station Street, even postgame, to answer any missed riddles. The first riddle is in Venigni Works before crossing the bridge into the workshop. The answer that grants Humanity is HUMAN and rewards a Trinity Key. The second is in Malum District before reaching the Red Lobster Inn. Answer CANDLE for Humanity and receive a Trinity Key. The third is in the Grand Exhibition after the robot smashes through a barred gate. Answer EGG for Humanity. You will receive a hint instead of a key. Progress to the room with two statues and interact twice with the statue on the right to reveal the hidden Trinity Key. The fourth is in Krat Central Station Street near the Stargazer before Corrupted Parade Master. Answer ERGO for Humanity and receive a Trinity Key. The fifth can be answered either there or later at Relic of Trismegistus after a wall breaking puppet mini boss. Answer NO for Humanity, then open the Surprise Box from your inventory to receive the final Trinity Key, though it inflicts Decay. The Sanctums can be opened in any order. In Venigni Works, after meeting Red Fox and Black Cat, follow the tunnel and keep turning right to find the door. In St. Frangelico Cathedral, climb near the electric boulder corridor and take the ladder on the right to reach it. In the Opera House, drop into the pit near the beam before King of Puppets and turn around to find the door. In Krat Central Station Lobby, go downstairs to the left before exiting the station. In Arche Abbey Outer Wall, descend to the bottom where a Boxer enemy ambushes you and you will find the final door. Open each door and step inside to count progress, then open the safes for their rewards. Enter the fifth Sanctum and the trophy unlocks.

Collect all Legion Arms.
Type: Silver
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
You must craft all eight Legion Arms. Left Arm of Steel is equipped automatically at the start. Puppet String is obtained after defeating the Parade Master and reaching Hotel Krat. Fulminis is unlocked after defeating the Scrapped Watchman and obtaining the Overcharged Storage Battery.

Falcon Eyes fires delayed explosive shells from range. Deus Ex Machina places proximity mines. Pandemonium creates an acid pool that corrodes enemies. Legion Plugs are found in St. Frangelico Cathedral Chapel inside a chest near the inverted elevator path, in a safe at Rosa Isabelle Street Entrance, in a chest after the elite enemy near the cable car at Grand Exhibition Gallery, and by defeating the elite enemy outside Krat Central Station Street. Craft the final arm and the trophy unlocks.

Trophy: Normal Weapon Collector
Collect all normal weapons.
Type: Silver
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
You must obtain all twenty nine Normal Weapons. These are purchased from merchants using regular Ergo, looted from chests and safes, or rewarded through specific collections. You only need the base version of each weapon. Blades and handles can be mixed for builds, but simply owning the main weapon counts. Weapons carry into New Game Plus, so you can finish missing ones later if needed. The three starting weapons are missable if not purchased early. Puppet’s Saber, Wintry’s Rapier, and Greatsword of Fate are tied to your starting class choice, but can also be bought for 300 Ergo from the Wandering Merchant near Cerasani Alley Stargazer. This merchant disappears after completing Barren Swamp, so buy any you did not choose before then.

Trophy: Special Weapon Collector
Collect all special weapons.
Type: Silver
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
You must obtain all eleven Special Weapons. These are purchased by exchanging Rare Ergo dropped from story bosses with Alidoro or Rookie Explorer Hugo. Do not consume Rare Ergo or trade it for amulets, as you only get one per playthrough. Weapons carry into New Game Plus, so you can split them across runs if needed.

Seven Coil Spring Sword comes from the Parade Master. Etiquette comes from the Scrapped Watchman. Holy Sword of the Ark comes from King’s Flame Fuoco. Trident of the Covenant comes from Fallen Archbishop Andreus. Puppet Ripper comes from Romeo, King of Puppets. Frozen Feast comes from Champion Victor. Two Dragons Sword comes from the Puppet Devouring Green Monster. Uroboro’s Eye comes from Laxasia the Complete. Noblesse Oblige comes from Simon Manus.

Trophy: Veteran Explorer
Decipher all cryptic vessels and claim rewards.
Type: Silver
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
You must find all six Cryptic Vessels, have Venigni decipher each one at Hotel Krat after rescuing him at Venigni Works, and then complete their individual puzzles to claim the rewards. Even if you already know the solution, you must always give the vessel to Venigni first or the reward will not trigger. Crafted Cryptic Vessel is found in St. Frangelico Cathedral Chapel after reaching the top wooden structure and dropping the brazier to burn the decay below, revealing a hidden room with the chest. After deciphering, go to the bridge in Elysion Boulevard where you fought Mad Donkey and throw any throwable at the hanging puppet to receive a letter. Then travel to Inside the House on Elysion Boulevard Stargazer, cross the beam, open the door on the right, and loot the safe for Owl’s Doctor Hunting Apparel and a Quartz. Jeweled Cryptic Vessel is in Estella Opera House by falling into the pit near the beam leading to King of Puppets, climbing the ladder in the side room past the ballerina and spider enemies, and opening the chest. After deciphering, go to Cerasani Alley Stargazer, backtrack toward the cliff overlooking Hotel Krat, and use the Check Ground gesture at the edge. You receive Atoned’s Hunting Apparel and a Legion Caliber. Old Cryptic Vessel is obtained from Rookie Explorer Hugo near Barren Swamp Bridge by exhausting his dialogue. After deciphering, travel to Path of the Pilgrim Stargazer in Malum District, take the elevator shortcut down, reach the shack area near the Slum Resident, get the key, avoid falling through the collapsing floor by hugging the right wall, reenter the shack, and open the chest for Life Amulet plus one and a Legion Caliber. Rusty Cryptic Vessel is purchased from Polendina after giving him the Special Krat Supply Box found in Collapsed Street inside the Alchemists’ Laboratory building on a lower ledge near a long ladder. After deciphering, go to Barren Swamp and enter Hermit’s Cave near Hugo. Defeat the mini boss at the end to obtain the Misty E’ra record and open the nearby safe for Black Cat’s Hunting Apparel and a Quartz. Alidoro’s Cryptic Vessel is missable and obtained only if you kill Alidoro at Relic of Trismegistus after defeating the Black Rabbit Brotherhood. If you spare him there, you lose this vessel permanently. After deciphering, speak to Eugenie and choose whether to tell the truth about his identity. Telling the truth awards the Far East Princess record. Mechanical Cryptic Vessel is missable and found in Arche Abbey Broken Rift near the upper balcony guarded by a strong enemy. After deciphering, go to Abandoned Apartment Stargazer, cross the log past the open shortcut gate, turn left through the arch, climb the stairs to the merchant, equip the Frozen Feast special weapon, and speak to him. If you consumed the Reborn Champion’s Ergo instead of trading it for Frozen Feast earlier, you cannot complete this puzzle. Completing it rewards Red Fox’s Hunting Apparel and a Quartz. Claim the final reward from the last vessel and the trophy unlocks.

Trophy: Extreme Potential
Activate the P-Organ to Phase 5.
Type: Silver
Category: Grind
Unlock Details
You unlock the P-Organ system after defeating the Scrapped Watchman in Krat City Hall. Return to Hotel Krat and sit in the chair in Geppetto’s office to begin upgrading your P-Organ using Quartz. To unlock this trophy, you need to reach Phase 5 by activating two nodes in each of Phases 1 through 4. This requires a total of 20 Quartz, which can be found through bosses, chests, cryptic vessels, and exploration throughout the game. You do not need to activate any nodes in Phase 5 itself. The trophy unlocks as soon as Phase 5 becomes available. Progress carries into New Game Plus, so you can finish this there if needed.
Trophy: Strongest Legion Arm
Upgrade a Legion Arm to maximum level.
Type: Silver
Category: Grind
Unlock Details
You need to fully upgrade any Legion Arm to Tier III. There are eight total Legion Arms, and once you craft or obtain one, you can upgrade it at the Venigni Crafting Machine in Hotel Krat after rescuing Venigni at Venigni Works. Upgrades require Legion Calibers. These are found by exploring or in limited quantities from vendors. You will find several naturally through progression, including from the Double Shield Puppet in Venigni Works, a chest near the first purple Dimensional Butterfly in St. Frangelico Cathedral, a chest inside the Red Lobster Inn in Malum District, the Boxer mini boss in the Grand Exhibition, as a reward from the Jeweled Cryptic Vessel, and from Polendina after delivering the Sturdy Krat Supply Box. You need six Legion Calibers total to max one arm. Upgrading is done at the Venigni Crafting Machine by selecting Modify Legion Arm. Each arm requires one Legion Caliber for Tier I, two for Tier II, and three for Tier III. The Left Arm of Steel cannot be upgraded, so choose any other arm. Aegis is one of the strongest and most practical options. Its final tier allows a powerful charged counter while guarding. Puppet String at Tier III enables a Link Attack after pulling or tracing an enemy. Fulminis gains Overcharge for stronger electricity bursts. Flamberge unlocks a flame explosion after sustained fire. Deus Ex Machina improves detection and damage of mines. Falcon Eyes allows emergency shots during dodges. Pandemonium gains an acid explosion at the end of its duration. Upgrade any single Legion Arm to Tier III and the trophy unlocks immediately.
Trophy: Strongest Normal Weapon
Upgrade a normal weapon to maximum level.
Type: Silver
Category: Grind
Unlock Details
You must upgrade any normal weapon to +10. Normal weapons are those bought from merchants or found in chests and safes. They start at +0 and can be upgraded by speaking to Eugenie at Hotel Krat. Upgrade levels carry into New Game Plus, so you cannot miss this permanently. There are four upgrade materials for normal weapons: Hidden Moonstone, Crescent Moonstone, Half Moonstone, and Full Moonstone. The first three can be purchased infinitely after delivering specific supply boxes to Polendina at Hotel Krat. Hidden Moonstone becomes unlimited after giving him the Krat Supply Box found in St. Frangelico Cathedral after defeating the elite carcass. Crescent Moonstone becomes unlimited after giving him the Sturdy Krat Supply Box from the Grand Exhibition near the shortcut to the Champion Victor fight. Half Moonstone becomes unlimited after giving him the Special Krat Supply Box from the Alchemists’ Laboratory in Krat Central Station, found near the large ladder before Walker of Illusions. Full Moonstones are limited and mostly obtained from major bosses. To reach +10, you need seven Hidden Moonstones, seven Crescent Moonstones, three Half Moonstones, and one Full Moonstone. Upgrade any single normal weapon to +10 at Eugenie and the trophy unlocks.
Trophy: Strongest Special Weapon
Upgrade a special weapon to maximum level.
Type: Silver
Category: Grind
Unlock Details
You must upgrade any Special Weapon to +5. Special Weapons are obtained by exchanging boss Rare Ergo with Alidoro or Rookie Explorer Hugo. Do not consume Rare Ergo or trade it for amulets if you plan to collect and upgrade all special weapons, since each Rare Ergo is limited per playthrough. Special Weapons start at +0 and are upgraded through Eugenie at Hotel Krat up to +5. Upgrades also require a small amount of regular Ergo. Progress carries into New Game Plus, so you can finish this across runs if needed. There are two materials used for Special Weapon upgrades: Dark Moon Moonstone of the Covenant and Full Moonstone of the Covenant. Unlike normal weapon materials, these cannot be purchased infinitely. However, delivering the same Krat Supply Boxes to Polendina that unlock normal weapon materials will also add a limited stock of these Covenant stones to his shop. To fully upgrade one Special Weapon to +5, you need seven Dark Moon Moonstones of the Covenant and three Full Moonstones of the Covenant. Upgrade any single Special Weapon to +5 and the trophy unlocks immediately.
Trophy: Fatal Blow
Perform a successful Fatal Attack.
Type: Bronze
Category: Combat
Unlock Details
You will unlock this early in the game during Krat Central Station when you are first introduced to Fatal Attacks. Approach an unaware enemy from behind and press R1 when the claw mark icon appears to perform the attack. This is effectively unmissable as the tutorial sets it up for you, but if you somehow miss it, you can perform a Fatal Attack on any enemy later by getting behind them and triggering the prompt.
Trophy: From Across the Rift
Defeat all types of Dimensional Butterflies.
Type: Bronze
Category: Combat
Unlock Details
You must kill at least one of each of the three Dimensional Butterfly types. When Gemini glows red, a Butterfly is nearby. They only remain for a short time, but if one escapes, simply rest at a Stargazer and it will respawn in the same location. You have unlimited attempts. The red or pink Butterfly is the most common. It flies in a mostly straight path and has low health, so basic attacks are enough. Early examples include the rooftops in Elysion Boulevard after repairing the Inside the House Stargazer, and Venigni Works after defeating the Double Shield Puppet mini boss. The purple Butterfly stays idle but will teleport away quickly if not killed fast. Use strong attacks or Fable Arts to finish it fast. You can find one in St. Frangelico Cathedral after meeting Cecile by dropping through the cracked floor, and another in Path of the Pilgrim in the large pond before the village. The yellow Butterfly is the rarest and has high health. It periodically explodes in a small radius, so stay aggressive and finish it quickly. One appears in Lorenzini Arcade near the large basement hole inside a side room with white mannequins, and another in Barren Swamp near the two Puppet of the Future bosses. Kill one of each color and the trophy unlocks.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/XrhVd3yGyqc
Trophy: The Bastards and the Sweepers
Defeat a Stalker.
Type: Bronze
Category: Combat
Unlock Details
This unlocks after defeating any Stalker. The first one you encounter is Mad Donkey in Elysion Boulevard, just before reaching Geppetto on the Alchemists’ Bridge. This fight is mandatory and part of story progression. Mad Donkey uses a large, slow weapon, which makes him easy to punish. Stay mobile, circle around him, and dodge through his swings with Circle to get behind him. Build stagger damage until the white claw mark appears, then perform a Fatal Attack with R1 to deal heavy damage. Repeat this a few times and he will go down quickly, unlocking the trophy.
Trophy: The Ultimate Defense Technique
Destroy an enemy weapon with a perfect guard.
Type: Bronze
Category: Combat
Unlock Details
This requires you to break an enemy’s weapon, which is normally done by landing multiple Perfect Guards. A Perfect Guard is performed by blocking at the exact moment an attack lands, which takes precise timing. The easiest place to do this is in Elysion Boulevard against the Greatsword Puppets or Chimney Sweepers. Repeatedly perform Perfect Guards on their attacks until their weapon breaks and the trophy unlocks. You can also achieve this by continuously attacking them while they are blocking, which will eventually break their weapon and still count.
Trophy: Free from the puppet string
Reach this ending.
Type: Gold
Category: Ending
Unlock Details
This is considered the good ending and is missable. In Chapter 11, after defeating Laxasia the Complete, you will find Sophia and be given a timed choice. Choose LET HER LIVE. Later, after defeating Simon Manus and speaking with Geppetto, choose REFUSE when he asks for your heart. This leads to the fight with the Nameless Puppet and unlocks this ending once it is defeated. You still need a solid amount of Humanity for this path. There is no visible counter, so continue lying when it fits and avoid skipping Humanity events to stay safe. If you want to reduce extra boss replays, make a cloud save before the final decisions so you can reload and secure multiple endings efficiently.
Trophy: Real boy : They all lived happily ever after
Reach this ending.
Type: Gold
Category: Ending
Unlock Details
This is one of the three endings and counts as the bad ending. After defeating Simon Manus, take the elevator down to Under the Abyss and speak with Geppetto. When the timed choice appears, select GIVE YOUR HEART. The game ends immediately after the scene and the trophy unlocks. This is missable because choosing REFUSE locks you into a different ending. Make a PS Plus cloud backup before speaking to Geppetto if you want all endings in fewer playthroughs. After unlocking this one, return to Hotel Krat to finish The Story of One Father before restoring your save and choosing a different outcome.
Trophy: Rise of P
Reach this ending.
Type: Gold
Category: Ending
Unlock Details
This is the true ending and requires high Humanity. Throughout your playthrough, choose lie options when possible, complete side character stories, listen to records for the first time at Hotel Krat, and trigger Humanity reactions. You will know it is working when you see messages like your springs are reacting or you feel warmth. You do not need every single event, but you need a strong majority. After defeating Laxasia the Complete, choose GIVE HER PEACE when speaking with Sophia. Your hair should turn white. When speaking to Geppetto in his cell, answer YES. After defeating Simon Manus, say I LIBERATED HER FROM ARCHE ABBEY. Finally, when Geppetto asks for your heart at the very end, choose REFUSE and defeat the Nameless Puppet. If your Humanity is high enough, the ending triggers after the fight.
Trophy: Bear Gold Coin Fruit
Harvest a Gold Coin Fruit.
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
After completing Malum District and defeating the Eldest of the Black Rabbit Brotherhood, take the elevator in their hideout to return to Hotel Krat. This unlocks a new area where you will meet Giangio. After speaking with him, interact with the nearby gate to access the Gold Coin Tree in the Lost Flower Garden. A short scene will play and the trophy unlocks immediately after discovering the tree. The Gold Coin Tree passively produces Gold Coin Fruit over time and can be accessed from Hotel Krat. These fruits are used for trading with Giangio, respec options later in the game, and certain character interactions tied to missable rewards.
Trophy: Exploring Possibilities
Assemble a weapon.
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
You unlock the ability to assemble weapons during Chapter 2 after rescuing Geppetto from the Mad Donkey. This gives you the Enigma Assembly Tool, which lets you combine weapon blades and handles. Go to any Stargazer or speak to Eugénie at Hotel Krat, choose the assemble weapon option, and combine any blade with any handle. Even reassembling parts from the same weapon works, and the trophy will unlock immediately.
Trophy: Pianist of Krat
Play a perfect tune on the Hotel Krat piano.
Type: Silver
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
This is a post ending trophy and easy to miss. After finishing any ending, do not start New Game Plus immediately. Press Circle instead so you can return to Hotel Krat before resetting your run. Go to Antonia’s room and interact with the piano you used earlier in the story. A short scene will play and the trophy unlocks right after. If you begin New Game Plus first, you will have to complete another ending to try again.
Trophy: Corrupted Parade Master
Defeat Corrupted Parade Master.
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
Corrupted Parade Master is fought in Krat City Station in the same arena as the original Parade Master, but this time it is a Carcass enemy. You cannot summon a Specter for this fight, so you must handle it solo. Because it is now a Carcass, it inflicts Decay and is weak to fire. Equip Decay resistant converters, strike resistant liners, and strong defensive parts. Blue Guardianship Amulet, Patience Amulet, and Carrier’s Amulet are good options. Flamberge, Flame Grindstone, and Thermites are very effective here. Most of its moves are similar to the original Parade Master, but it now has tentacle based attacks. The most dangerous one is a grab that can quickly fill your Decay meter and drain your health. It can also summon a small Carcass enemy. Kill the add quickly, but step away before it dies because it explodes and deals heavy Decay damage. When it performs the body slam, it will chain into fist attacks on landing. Dodge the slam sideways and stay behind it to avoid the follow up. Play patiently, manage Decay, and defeat it to unlock the trophy.
Trophy: Fallen Archbishop
Defeat Fallen Archbishop Andreus.
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
Fallen Archbishop Andreus is the main boss of St. Frangelico Cathedral and the first true two phase endurance fight. You must defeat his first health bar and immediately fight a second form. If you die in phase two, you restart from phase one. Equip strong defensive parts with Decay resistance, especially the Workshop Union Standard Corrosion Resistance Converter found in Moonlight Town. The Spaced Armor Liner helps against strike damage. Life Amulet and Carrier’s Amulet are solid picks. Bring Flamberge, a Flame Grindstone, and Thermites since he is weak to fire. Enter with full HP and Pulse Charges, and summon a Specter before the fog gate. In phase one, stay on his sides or front. Do not attack the shell on his back or your weapon will bounce and stagger you. He uses sweeping hand leg combos and a long tongue attack that builds Decay quickly. His Fury slam has him raise himself high before crashing down. Back away when you see it coming. Do not overcommit because you need resources for phase two. After the cutscene, his true body emerges from the back and becomes active. You can focus attacks on the newly exposed body since its moves are more predictable than the front. He gains a large energy burst attack where blue particles gather before he releases a wide blast from both sides. When you see the charge up, run far away, then return to punish once the explosion ends. Manage Decay, stay patient, and bring him down to unlock the trophy.
Trophy: First Lie
Tell a lie in front of Hotel Krat Entrance.
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
You will unlock this at the end of Chapter 1 when you reach the entrance of Hotel Krat after defeating the Parade Master. When prompted at the door, you must choose to say that you are human, which counts as a lie. This is a mandatory story moment and cannot be missed. The trophy pops immediately after making the choice.
Trophy: King of Puppets
Defeat Romeo, King of Puppets.
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
Romeo, King of Puppets is the main boss at the end of Estella Opera House in Rosa Isabelle Street. This is a two phase fight and you must defeat both forms in one attempt. If you die in phase two, you restart from the beginning. Equip fire resistance like the Workshop Union Standard Radiation Converter, along with strong defensive parts. Life Amulet and Patience Amulet are solid picks. Fulminis Legion Arm works well, and Electric or Acid Grindstone plus Throwing Cells are strong choices since he is a puppet and weak to those elements. Enter fully stocked on Pulse Charges and summon a Specter before the fight. In phase one, the King of Puppets is a large machine that uses heavy blade slams and sweeps. Stay close, dodge toward him, and punish after combos. When he spins his blades and creates a vacuum effect, immediately run away or you and your Specter will be launched into the air and take damage. In phase two, Romeo emerges and becomes extremely agile with a scythe. He chains fast combos and jumps frequently. When he balances on his weapon, he is about to perform a Fury attack, so create distance quickly. Midway through the phase he buffs his scythe with fire, increasing Overheat buildup, so monitor your meter. If your Specter is close to dying, use a Friendship Wishstone to restore some of its health. Stay patient through his combo strings, punish safely, and defeat him to unlock the trophy.
Trophy: King’s Flame
Defeat King’s Flame Fuoco.
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
King’s Flame Fuoco is the main boss of Venigni Works and your first major fire based fight. His attacks rapidly build Overheat, which causes damage over time if the meter fills. Equip the Workshop Union Standard Radiation Converter for fire resistance, along with Life Amulet and Puppet’s Destroyer Amulet. Bring Throwing Cells since puppets are weak to electricity, and enter with full HP and Pulse Charges. A Specter can help but will struggle due to Fuoco’s large area attacks. In phase one, stay close to his side and avoid getting greedy. He mainly uses arm slams and wide sweep attacks. The full 360 sweep can be dodged with good timing, but sometimes he chains multiple sweeps, so be ready to dodge again. When he glows red and charges forward with his drill, dodge sideways instead of trying to Perfect Guard. If he creates distance, he may use his flamethrower or launch fireballs. Stay tight to his side to avoid the flamethrower, and dodge fireballs or use the red pillars for cover, though they can be destroyed if he charges. At around half health, he will pause and lower himself before unleashing a massive fire wave. Immediately run far away to avoid it. If you get inflicted with Overheat, repeatedly rolling drains the meter faster. After the blast, return to staying close, punish safely after his combos, and use Throwing Cells during openings. Bring him down and the trophy unlocks.

Parade Master is the first major boss and is fought at the end of Cerasani Alley shortly after meeting the first merchant. Climb the stairs into the arena to begin the fight. This is your first real skill check, so expect to learn timing through trial and error. Stay close and dodge toward the boss to avoid wide swings, then punish with a few quick hits. Watch for red flashes, which signal a Fury attack. These can only be stopped with a Perfect Guard or avoided by creating distance. He uses slow mace slams, sweep attacks, and a body slam if you stand too far away. Dodge sideways during the body slam and attack while he recovers. When his health bar flashes white, charge a heavy R2 attack to stagger him, then stand in the red circle and use R1 for a Fatal Attack. In phase two at around half health, he rips off his head and gains longer sweep attacks and a stronger Fury slam. Do not stay directly behind him for too long, as he can spin and catch you. Play patiently, punish safely, and the fight will fall into place.
Trophy: Puppet-Devouring Green Monster
Defeat the Puppet-Devouring Green Monster.
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
The Puppet Devouring Green Monster is the main boss of Barren Swamp and one of the toughest fights in the game. It has two full phases back to back. If you die in phase two, you must repeat phase one. Bring strong defense and Decay resistance, along with Blue Guardianship Amulet, Patience Amulet, and Carrier’s Amulet. A Decay resistant converter and a strike resistant liner help a lot. Flamberge, Flame Grindstone, and Thermites are excellent since this is a Carcass enemy and weak to fire. Enter fully stocked and summon a Specter. A Friendship Wishstone can keep your Specter alive longer. In phase one, the boss deals heavy Decay buildup and often opens with a fast crawling Fury charge. You can Perfect Guard it, but dodging sideways is safer if unsure. It may burrow underground and pop up beneath you, so stay ready to dodge as it emerges. When it stands upright, it performs up to three slams, with the third being a Fury attack. During its vomit attack, run behind it to avoid Decay buildup and punish from the rear. After the first health bar is depleted, it enters a metal armored form. It becomes more aggressive and gains powerful tentacle attacks that can delete your health quickly. It also adds frequent jumping attacks, including a jumping Fury slam that is difficult to avoid without a well timed Perfect Guard. If it raises its armored arms for a triple slam, be prepared for an additional tentacle sweep afterward that hits to the sides. Stay calm, manage Decay carefully, and finish the second phase to unlock the trophy.
Trophy: Revenge of Black
Defeat the Black Rabbit Brotherhood.
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This is the second Black Rabbit Brotherhood fight in Relic of Trismegistus. This time, the three surviving siblings attack you immediately. After two of them are defeated, the Eldest returns for the final phase. You must kill all four to win. Bring strong defensive parts along with Blue Guardianship Amulet, Patience Amulet, and Carrier’s Amulet. Any Legion Arm works, and fire or physical throwables help with burst damage. Enter fully stocked and summon a Specter before the fog gate. This starts as a 1 vs 3 fight, so having a Specter is extremely important. Focus first on the Eccentric Brother with the spear. He applies Shock, which drains your Fable meter when full, and has long reach attacks that pressure both you and your Specter. Eliminate him quickly. Next, lower both the Youngest and the Battle Maniac to low health without killing either. The goal is to defeat them nearly at the same time. The Eldest revives when only one sibling remains, so you do not want to fight two enemies plus him at once. The Youngest uses Decay and the Battle Maniac uses fire. They can be staggered with constant pressure, but protect your Specter from being overwhelmed. When the Eldest returns, he is stronger than before with higher damage and shockwave attacks that travel long distance. Dodge toward his back to avoid the shockwaves and punish after his combos. Try to keep your Specter alive until this final phase. Once all four members are down, the trophy unlocks.
Trophy: Scrapped Watchman
Defeat Scrapped Watchman.
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
Scrapped Watchman is the boss at the end of Krat City Hall. He is fast, aggressive, and hits hard, so go in prepared. Life Amulet and Puppet’s Destroyer Amulet help, and the Workshop Union Standard Insulation Converter is great here because it reduces electricity damage. Make sure you are full health with all Pulse Charges before entering. For the easier clear, summon a Specter at the blue glowing fountain just left of the fog gate. You will need a Star Fragment. If you are short, the Brute Puppet to the right of the building entrance before the boss often drops one. With a Specter, the boss will split focus, giving you safer openings to punish and making Groggy build faster, even though the boss has slightly more health. Solo, phase one is about reading his fist slam patterns and dodging at the right time. He has a triple slam combo where the third hit is a Fury attack, shown by a red glow. If you cannot Perfect Guard it, back off, because you cannot reliably dodge through it with invincibility frames. He also chains horizontal swipes into a spinning slam. Dodge around him and punish from behind when the combo ends. Around half health he roars and triggers a small electric burst, so create space immediately. Phase two keeps the same moves but adds electricity to everything. His ground hits leave lightning spots that strike shortly after, so do not dodge into where his fists just landed. The Fury move in this phase sends a lightning wave along the ground, and Perfect Guard becomes the safest answer if you want to stay close. Stay patient, pick clean punish windows after combos, and the trophy unlocks when he goes down.
Trophy: Stargazer’s Guide
Repair a Stargazer.
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
Right after exiting Krat Central Station at the start of the game, you will come across your first Stargazer just outside in the city. Interact with it to repair and activate it. This unlocks leveling, inventory management, and later fast travel. The trophy pops as soon as you activate the Stargazer.
Trophy: The Awakened God
Defeat Simon Manus.
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
Simon Manus is fought in the Arche Abbey Cradle of the Gods and serves as the final story boss. This is a two phase fight that must be cleared in one attempt. Equip strong defensive parts along with Blue Guardianship Amulet, Patience Amulet, and Carrier’s Amulet. Bring Flame Grindstone and fire or physical throwables for extra burst. Summon a Specter before entering, as this is your final chance to use one. Phase one is straightforward. Simon uses wide horizontal and vertical mace swings. Dodge toward him rather than away to create safe punish windows. Do not overcommit, as his swings hit hard but are readable. Build stagger damage and use Fatal Attacks when he enters Groggy. Phase two is significantly harder. He gains ranged, tracking energy projectiles that build Disruption. If your Disruption meter fills, you die instantly, so avoid these at all costs. His mace combos become faster and he adds a powerful jumping slam. When he slams his weapon into the ground and pauses, start moving away because a tornado will form and explode shortly after. Throughout the fight, blue beams may strike the ground, signaling an incoming massive energy hand that will crash down and cause a large explosion. Immediately create distance from the beam to avoid heavy damage. Stay patient, manage Disruption carefully, defeat his second form, and the trophy unlocks.
Trophy: The Champion of Evolution
Defeat Champion Victor.
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
Champion Victor is the main boss of Lorenzini Arcade and Grand Exhibition Gallery. He has one health bar, but at around half health a cutscene triggers and he becomes more aggressive with additional attacks. You only need to deplete this single bar to win. Equip strong defensive parts along with Life Amulet, Patience Amulet, and Carrier’s Amulet if you have the slot. Any Legion Arm works, and fire or physical throwables like saws and pipes are solid for extra burst. Enter with full HP and Pulse Charges, and summon a Specter to help control aggro. Victor fights like an upgraded version of the Boxer mini boss you faced earlier, so expect heavy punches and close range pressure. Watch out for his grab, which can chunk your health quickly. Keep your HP high and do not overcommit. In the second half, he gains a charging rush that can chain up to three times. Dodge sideways rather than backward to avoid it. When he enters the Groggy state, wait briefly before going in for the Fatal Attack, as he throws out a quick strike before fully opening up. Stay patient, punish after combos, and finish him to unlock the trophy.
Trophy: The Complete One
Defeat Laxasia the Complete.
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
Laxasia the Complete is fought in the Arche Abbey Prayer Room on Alchemist’s Isle. This is a two phase fight with separate health bars, and both phases must be cleared in one attempt. She deals heavy electricity and slash damage, so equip a Shock resistant converter and a slash resistant liner along with strong defensive parts. Blue Guardianship Amulet, Patience Amulet, and Carrier’s Amulet are good choices. Bring your preferred weapon, solid throwables, and summon a Specter before entering. In phase one, her back is protected by a shield. Striking it will bounce your weapon unless you fully commit to breaking it. If you focus her shield long enough, it will shatter and leave her open briefly. Watch for electric ground marks. Lightning will strike those spots shortly after. If she slams her weapon forward, an electric burst follows. She has wide 360 sweeps, so do not overcommit even if she is targeting your Specter. When she enters Groggy, land a charged attack to stagger, but be ready because she may swing once more before becoming fully vulnerable. Phase two begins with her leaping into the air and firing lightning bolts downward. Create distance and dodge each bolt with a single roll. She will then crash down with an electric shockwave, so time your dodge carefully. Without her armor, she becomes extremely fast and frequently teleports behind you before attacking. Stay calm and avoid panic rolling. As in phase one, when she enters Groggy she may attack once before fully staggering, and she can trigger a close range electric explosion. Wait for the white claw mark before committing to the Fatal Attack. Defeat her second form and the trophy unlocks.
Trophy: The Delayed Match
Defeat the Black Rabbit Brotherhood leader.
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
The Eldest of the Black Rabbit Brotherhood is the main boss of Malum District. This is a multi enemy fight where the Eldest has the main boss health bar. As his HP drops, the other three siblings join one by one. The fight ends immediately once the Eldest is defeated, regardless of the others’ health. Bring strong defensive parts, Life Amulet and Patience Amulet, your preferred weapon, and any Legion Arm. Fire and physical throwables like saws and pipes help burst damage. Enter with full HP and Pulse Charges, and summon a Specter before the fog gate to help manage pressure when multiple enemies are active. You can approach this two ways. The aggressive strategy is to focus entirely on the Eldest and burn him down quickly, ignoring the siblings. This works best if your damage output is high enough to end the fight before it becomes overwhelming. The safer method is to shift focus each time a sibling joins. Lower their health until they retreat, then return to the Eldest. Repeat this for each sibling to reduce chaos. The Eldest uses a large greatsword with heavy but readable swings. Time your dodges or Perfect Guards carefully, punish after his combos, and finish him to unlock the trophy.
Trophy: The First Puppet
Defeat the Nameless Puppet.
Type: Silver
Category: Story
Unlock Details
You will fight the Nameless Puppet at the very end of the game if you refuse to give Geppetto your heart after defeating Simon Manus. This is required for the Rise of P and Free from the Puppet String endings, making this trophy missable depending on your choice. The fight has two phases. In the first phase, the boss is slower and easier to read, making it a good opportunity to stay aggressive, guard attacks, and build stagger. In the second phase, the boss becomes much faster and more aggressive, so focus on staying alive, using dodge timing, and taking safe openings. You cannot summon a Specter for this fight, so it is entirely solo. Using a fast weapon helps maintain pressure, and throwable items are very effective in the second phase for building stagger and finishing the fight more safely.
Trophy: The Story of the One Who Dreamed
Discover Simon Manus’s final story.
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This trophy is earned automatically during the final chapter. After defeating Simon Manus at Arche Abbey Cradle of the Gods, you will trigger a final conversation with him. Your choice of TRUTH or LIE does not matter for this trophy. Complete the dialogue after the fight and the trophy unlocks automatically.
You start your journey in Krat Central Station, where the game quickly teaches you the basics like guarding, dodging, and Fatal Attacks. Take your time here and get comfortable with Perfect Guards, because this mechanic will carry you through the entire game. If the timing feels tough at first, that’s normal, it clicks with practice.
As you move through the early areas, focus on exploring everything and picking up weapons to experiment with the assembly system once it unlocks. You’ll reach Hotel Krat at the end of Chapter 1, which becomes your main hub. This is also where the lie system begins, so pay attention to your choices since some trophies are tied to them.
Don’t worry about perfection here. Learn enemy patterns, try different weapons, and just get into the rhythm. If something feels confusing, this is a great time to pause and Ask Gami instead of banging your head against the same enemy.
Once you get deeper into Krat, the game opens up with more systems like the P-Organ, Legion Arms, and weapon customization. This is where your build really starts to take shape, so pick a playstyle you enjoy and start investing into it. Fast weapons are great for beginners, but everything is viable if you commit to it.
You’ll also start collecting Quartz, records, gestures, and other collectibles tied to trophies. Keep an eye on side content like Trinity Sanctums and Cryptic Vessels, since these are easy to miss if you rush through areas. Exploration here pays off big time and saves you cleanup later.
Mid game is where difficulty spikes a bit, but by now you should feel more confident. Upgrade your weapons regularly and don’t hoard materials. If a boss feels overwhelming, step back, upgrade, and come back stronger. Or you know, Ask Gami and skip the frustration.
As you approach the final chapters, enemies hit harder and bosses become much more aggressive. Make sure your weapon is upgraded, your P-Organ is progressing toward Phase 5, and your Legion Arm is fully upgraded or close to it.
This is also where you need to start thinking about endings. Some trophies are tied to your final choices, so be mindful of your decisions, especially near the end. If you’re going for platinum, you’ll likely need multiple playthroughs or save management.
Stay patient here. Late game bosses can take a few tries, or a lot of tries, and that’s completely normal. Take breaks if needed and come back fresh. This is the stretch where the game tests everything you’ve learned.
After finishing the story, you’ll likely still have some collectibles and upgrade-related trophies left. Things like records, gestures, and weapon collections can be cleaned up through exploration or New Game Plus if needed.
NG+ is actually very helpful for finishing off trophies like P-Organ Phase 5 or collecting anything you missed. Progress carries over, so you won’t be starting from scratch. This makes cleanup much smoother than it looks.
If anything feels confusing or you’re missing something specific, don’t waste hours guessing. Just Ask Gami and get exactly what you need so you can get back to playing. Stay consistent, keep upgrading, and the platinum will come.
