Little Nightmares: Key information about the trophies

1. There are only 12 trophies in the basic game - 10 bronze and 2 silver. Unfortunately, Little Nightmares doesn't have a platinum trophy.
2. If you have the Complete Edition version of Little Nightmares, you will also be able to get the DLC trophies. The game has three story DLCs - The Depths, The Hideaway and The Residence. Each of them offers 1 gold, 1 silver and 1 bronze trophy.
3. Most trophies are received for completing stages and performing specific actions. Story-related trophies are obtained automatically. However, the achievements related to specific actions (e.g. run on the piano keys) can be easily missed.
4. There are 3 types of secrets/collectibles and 3 trophies related to them. During the game, you have to hug friendly little creatures, destroy statues, and use the lighter on interactive light sources.
5. You can repeat the stages. Thanks to it, you can grab collectibles you missed or access the locations in which you can perform trophy-related actions.
6. Hard to the Core trophy is hard to get. You have to complete the game in less than 1 hour without dying. This requires excellent knowledge of all stages of the game and the dangers standing on your way. However, you can still make a mistake - you will have to restart the game.
7. If you want to get all the trophies, you will have to complete the game at least twice. During the first playthrough, focus on unique activities and secrets. In the second playthrough, focus solely on getting the Hard to the Core trophy - beat the game within one hour and without dying.

Little Lost Things

Trophy type: bronze

How to unlock: Kindness will be your undoing!

Comment: This is one of the trophies associated with the game's secrets/collectibles. You must find and hug 13 small, friendly creatures. Try to explore all the dark corners, look for interactive passages, and objects where these creatures can hide.

Kitchen Hand

Trophy type: silver

How to unlock: The recipe is complete, the feast will be divine.

Comment: This trophy is related to stage three, Kitchen, where, in addition to sneaking through that location, you will also need to avoid a hostile cook.

Check out the cauldron highlighted in the above picture. You have to find 3 different ingredients for cooking and throw them into the cauldron. Remember that you have to avoid the cook. Hide after throwing an ingredient and go after the next one when it is safe.

Highly Sprung

Trophy type: bronze

How to unlock: You'd jump even higher if you knew what slept there!

Comment: This is an easy trophy that you can unlock early in the game. You need to climb the bed. To get the achievement, do not use the right hatch immediately. Instead, jump a few times on the bed.

Rascal

Trophy type: bronze

How to unlock: Little vandal, little beast, The Maw will punish you at the feast.

Comment: This is one of the trophies associated with the game's secrets/collectibles. You must find and destroy 10 statues - pick them up and throw. Try to explore all the dark corners and look for interactive passages where you can find the statues.

Light Up Your Life

Trophy type: bronze

How to unlock: Not all lights can be trusted, but these should be quite safe!

Comment: This is one of the trophies associated with the game's secrets/collectibles. You must find and light 20 lanterns/candles. There are more candles/lanterns than the required number, so you do not need to find 100% of them. Lanterns can be found mainly in dark rooms. Some of them may also be in secret locations.

The Prison

Trophy type: bronze

How to unlock: Look how the canary has flown its cage!

Comment: This is one of the trophies associated with the progress - you can't miss it. You must complete the first stage/episode of the campaign.

The Lair

Trophy type: bronze

How to unlock: Little lost things sometimes find their way home.

Comment: This is one of the trophies associated with the progress - you can't miss it. You must complete the second stage/episode of the campaign.

The Kitchen

Trophy type: bronze

How to unlock: The Chefs will miss you!

Comment: This is one of the trophies associated with the progress - you can't miss it. You must complete the third stage/episode of the campaign.

The Guest Area

Trophy type: bronze

How to unlock: Little fox among hungry wolves!

Comment: This is one of the trophies associated with the progress - you can't miss it. You must complete the fourth stage/episode of the campaign.

The Lady's Quarters

Trophy type: bronze

How to unlock: A storm is coming. That coat should come in useful.

Comment: This is one of the trophies associated with the progress - you can't miss it. You must complete the fifth stage/episode of the campaign.

Elusive

Trophy type: bronze

How to unlock: Hey sneaky rat, how do you keep slipping away?

Comment: You can fulfill the requirements of this achievement in locations where you need to hide from large opponents, for example, in the Kitchen stage, where you avoid the cook. You have to escape a large opponent at the last moment, i.e. just before they catch the heroine - this must be done several times throughout the game. For example, in the Kitchen level, you can hide under one of the tables and run away when the cook reaches under the table. You can escape the same opponent several times. They don't have to be different big enemies.

Six's Song

Trophy type: bronze

How to unlock: So many keys, yet none to unlock your cage!

Comment: In the final part of the second stage - The Lair, you reach a place with a hanging piano (see the picture). Do not go further after you jump on it - just keep running on all the keys until you unlock the achievement.

Hard to the Core

Trophy type: silver

How to unlock: What's different about you? Why are you so brave?

Comment: This is the most difficult achievement in Little Nightmares. It has two requirements:

1. You can't die at all. The game counts each death. You have to avoid death from large opponents and monsters. You can't fall into the abyss and from high ledges.
2. You must complete the game in less than 1 hour. This is a very demanding speedrun. If you don't make any mistakes and don't stop for too long, you should be able to complete the game in about 55 minutes.

Be sure to complete the game at least once to know all the potential hazards and memorize the solutions to all the environmental puzzles.
