Platinum Roadmap: Two Playthroughs, One Online Session

Step 1: First Playthrough (4+ hours)

Choose either Low (bow, black hair) or Alone (wrench, orange hair) – it doesn’t matter which character you start with since you’ll need both playthroughs anyway. Focus on:

Story progression: Complete all four chapters
Collectibles: Gather all 25 Dolls, 6 Nomes, 10 Lady Statues, and 5 Ghosts
Counter trophies: Work on Hello? (50 calls), Guiding Hands (5 minutes holding hands), Spanner in the Works (50 wrench uses), and Bullseye (50 bow shots)
Chapter-specific trophies: Complete missable trophies as you encounter them

Step 2: Second Playthrough (3+ hours)

Play as the character you didn’t choose first. Since you already know the game, this run should be faster. Focus on:

Character-specific trophies: Low-Spirited (complete as Low) or From Nowhere, With Love (complete as Alone)
Any missed collectibles: Use chapter select to clean up remaining items
Remaining counter trophies: Finish any weapon usage or interaction trophies

Step 3: Co-op and Cleanup (1+ hours)

Complete Chapter 4 “The Institute” in online co-op for the Special Connection trophy. You can invite someone who has Chapter 4 unlocked even if they haven’t played the game. Clean up any remaining trophies using chapter select.
