The trophy run for Sherlock Holmes The Awakened is a straightforward one. Most of it involves knowing what clues to get and doing the right actions. Other than that, you may be required to make some questionable decisions. For Science.
If this remake is really close to the original, it’s going to take you, more or less, 12 hours to get that Platinum trophy. On average, it’s only going to take you a little more than an hour to complete all chapters. We’re looking at around 9 hours to complete all 7 chapters if you’re looking to speed run the whole thing. That’s putting into consideration if the game runs at the same pace as the original.
The adventure is going to take Holmes and Watson From London to Switzerland, to New Orleans, and back to the United Kingdom. For the most part, you will be asked to investigate crime scenes, analyze clues, and direct Holmes to do certain actions by typing commands on screen.
We aren’t certain that the remake is going to follow the events of the original to the letter, but after comparing the original with the trophy list, the broad strokes are mostly the same. Though we expect changes here and there, especially when it comes to the way lock picking is going to be implemented. And it’s a good thing too. We don’t think the original’s numbers-based lockpicking will go over well with current-day gamers.
From everything we’ve seen so far, the game will lean more heavily on the supernatural aspect. It’s no surprise. Modern game engines allow for the kind of visuals not possible back when the original was first released. Which should be to the approval of the fans who crowd-funded this endeavor.
And that’s all we’ve got for this Sherlock Holmes The Awakened trophy guide. At least for the moment. This guide may look a little different when the game fully releases. Till then, you know what you’re getting yourself into. Stay awesome, trophy hunters.
