Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse – Platinum Trophy Guide

Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse

PS4

The remaster asks you to finish every episode, but the trophies that need the most attention reward what you do before each ending. Use the powers on optional targets as you see them and keep a save before leaving each area. You can collect the Nutri-Specs in the first episode using the code below, or return after discovering it in the finale.

Skunkape Games’ PS4 remaster has 12 trophies. Telltale’s five original PS3 episodes have separate lists without a platinum.

  • List: 12 trophies: 11 gold and the platinum.
  • Online requirements: None.
  • Checks: Ten visions in episode one; seven forms in episode three.

Episode 1: use Future Vision on Sam in ten locations

Sam is the target, even when a scene suggests using the vision on something else. Do it on the street, on Skun-ka’pe’s ship, at Stinky’s Diner and in the subway. Outside and inside Bosco-Tech Labs count as separate locations. The remaining ones are outside Meesta Pizza, the pawn shop, the toy shop and the mysterious tunnel.

  • Check off a location when you use the power on Sam, not when you just enter it.

Episode 1: open the route to the Nutri-Specs

In chapter three, teleport to Stinky’s cell, interact with the phone and enter 43162 on the keypad. Collect the screwdriver and use it on the sewer grate at the C.O.P.S. Set up the scanner with the DeSoto and scan the apple and screwdriver. Select Mysterious Alley and dive into the dumpster to find the glasses.

  • If teleportation is not available yet, continue the chapter’s puzzles and return to the keypad.

Episode 2: have two curses hit Jurgen

On the train, use ventriloquism on the mole girl. Ask about the vampire reverse-curse and suggest that the vampire is in the sarcophagus. Then take the love letter from the trunk in Jurgen’s room and show it to the mole man; the second effect completes Doppel Fluch. Keep the can handy to protect yourself when entering the moles’ rooms.

  • Bring the letter to the mole man while you can still return through the train cars.

Episode 3: try all seven transformations

In the museum, use the transformation on the skull, the Hindenburg and the pyramid pictures. In the office, target the map, then look for the storm cloud in the Gift Vault news. The last two are the credit-card sign outside the diner and the toaster poster near Frankie. Do the optional transformations while you are already at the location so a scene change does not send you back through the episode.

  • Do the skull and pyramid before leaving the museum.

Episode 4: finish the Skunkape Loves You interactions

Talk to Skun-ka’pe three times at the diner. Later, use up Max’s five random lines and use ventriloquism on the jukebox. Call for help twice in Papierwaite’s office. Look at the tentacles, try the impenetrable door twice and ask Momma Bosco about the Clone Master. Use the Cthonic Destroyer on the tentacles and interact with the dispenser until Banang appears, then interact once more.

  • Do not wait until episode five: this sequence is part of Beyond the Alley of the Dolls.

Episode 5: piece together Stinky’s origin

In the lab, inspect the fog machine, box, granite slab, projector, camera and photo. The seventh interaction uses the inventory: select the cake photo and use it on the camera. Check the trophy before leaving the lab for the ending; looking at the photo does not replace that final combination.

  • Check Genius in Its Simplicity before ending the episode.
