Lumines Remastered: PS4 Platinum Trophy Guide

PS4

In Lumines you form same-color squares and clear them when the timeline sweeps over them. The platinum asks you to use that one rule in several ways: play fast in Time Attack, leave room when Endless speeds up and build an exact shape in Puzzle mode. Rotate those skills instead of repeating the longest mode every session.

The first Lumines started on PSP without trophies. The PS4 remaster has 30 trophies per set, and this roadmap applies to the three archived lists.

Original platform: PSP: the original game has no PlayStation trophies.
PS4 list: 30 trophies per set, with no multiplayer requirements.
Time Attack targets: Final targets: 50 squares in 60 seconds, 180 in 180, and 320 in 300.
Endurance challenges: One million points and two rounds in Endless; all skins in Shuffle.

Use Basic Challenge to learn the speeds

Finish Basic once without chasing the clock. Learn to set up a square while the line is elsewhere, leaving room for incoming blocks so you do not trap yourself behind a tall column. Skins change the music and pace, so watch when your building area clears. Return for the 55-minute target once you reach the end reliably.

Practice the change in pace between skins before attempting Speed Run.

Train the three Time Attacks separately

In 60 seconds, clear squares whenever you can rather than stopping to design a perfect shape. In 180 and 300 seconds, avoid stacking a side so high that you cannot dispose of awkward blocks. See where you lose time: fast placement matters from the first seconds, while the longer trials also require a manageable surface.

Check the higher targets of 50, 180 and 320 after the early milestones.

Separate building a shape from solving a mission

In puzzles, inspect the outline and work out which blocks need to remain on the board. Give yourself one area for the shape and another for unwanted blocks. In missions, read the goal before the first move. It may call for a clear or another specific action, so your last puzzle solution may not transfer.

Complete both puzzles and missions through Super Hard as separate checklists.

Learn the opponents before the no-retry run

Reach the tenth CPU match and note which opponents squeeze your playing area the most. The no-retry goal needs a clean run, so use early attempts to learn how to recover in tight space after a bad move. On a Black Belt Champion attempt, restart the series if you need a retry.

Confirm Galaxy Wars, then aim for the clean run.

Finish Endless and consult the skin catalog

Take on Endless once you can recover a high stack without losing control. Track the million-point goal and the two rounds separately; your score does not certify the latter. For missing skins, consult the in-game requirements and clear the Skin Edit objectives too. Save Shuffle with the full selection for last, so you only need one full endurance attempt.

Verify all skins before entering Shuffle.

Frequently asked questions

Is an online match required?

No. Required versus wins are against the CPU, and the other goals are in local modes.

Is one Basic Challenge clear enough?

You also need the 55-minute clear and the separate Endless, Skin Edit, Shuffle and Time Attack goals.

Do missions count as puzzles?

No. The two modes have separate trophies through Super Hard.
