Trophy type: Gold - Trophy list - Game Guide - Observer Game Guide

Trophy type: Gold

Unlocking: Earn 3,000 points during a single trapware run.

Commentary: The trapware is initiated after you decide to hack the head shown in the top picture above, located in the murderer's hideout at the game's later stage. After playing several sequences, you will attempt to complete three unique minigames. The points you earn are summed up, and the game displays your score in the top left corner of the screen (picture 2).

In the first minigame, you gain points for avoiding Tetris blocks falling down. In the second mini game, you follow the tunnel and have to jump aside in order to avoid the obstacles (you can get most points here). In the third minigame, you investigate a dungeon and avoid traps as well as monsters.

Trophy type: Gold - Trophy list - Game Guide - Observer Game Guide

Trophy type: Gold

Unlocking: Find all the roses and discover the final resting place.

Commentary: To unlock this trophy, you have to find four roses during the game. An exemplary rose can be seen in the picture above. Use the instructions below to find all of them. The first two roses can be acquired in any order, however, do it before going to the attic (after that it is impossible to return to the main part of the building). The next two roses have to be acquired in the order presented below (first the one from the attic, and then the one from the murderer's mind hacking sequence).

  1. The first rose can be found at the bottom of one of the staircases (the one closer to Adam's apartment) near the blocked entrance to the basement, under the stairs.
  2. The second rose is attached to a wall of one of the narrow corridors on the second floor.
  3. The third rose can be found soon after beginning the exploration of the attic when one is following the trail of the murderer. The rose is in the top room, behind a metal gate.
  4. The fourth rose can be found during the sequence of hacking the murderer's mind. It is located in the woods, where one gets after passing the tattoo parlor. The rose is lying on a gravestone one can find before meeting the mutant. The trophy is unlocked as you pick up the rose (provided you have collected the three remaining ones).

Commentary: A story-related achievement that you cannot miss.

KPD! Open Up!

Trophy type: Bronze - Trophy list - Game Guide - Observer Game Guide

Trophy type: Bronze

Unlocking: Interrogate 20 apartment tenants.

Commentary: You can handle the issue of interrogating the apartment tenants right after investigating Adam's room at the beginning of the game. Each apartment has an intercom installed on its front door - you can interact with it to see if anybody's home. Some of the apartments are empty, while in others there are some tenants, who you can talk to and ask them additional questions (an example is visible in the picture above). To unlock this trophy, try knocking at all the doors on the main stories of the building (you can use two staircases to move between the floors) AND all the compartments in the basement, which becomes accessible later in the game. The basement also includes inhabited 'apartments', so make sure not to miss them.

Drug Trail

Trophy type: Bronze - Trophy list - Game Guide - Observer Game Guide

Trophy type: Bronze

Unlocking: Interrogate Amir's clients.

Commentary: you can unlock this trophy after the first mind hacking sequence, in which you enter Amir Nowak's mind. During this sequence, you will i.a. see the memories regarding the distribution of the drugs. Pay attention to the visited apartments, among others, the apartment 112 shown in the picture above. After completing the hacking sequence, go to these apartments to talk to Amir's customers personally.

Unbreakable

Trophy type: Gold - Trophy list - Game Guide - Observer Game Guide

Trophy type: Gold

Unlocking: Finish the game without ever dying.

Commentary: For most of the time, the character you get to control is safe and you can freely investigate consecutive locations. There are, however, several exceptions, when Daniel Lazarski's life is in grave danger. For the first time, this will happen upon entering Helena Nowak's mind, whose corpses you will find in the tattoo parlor. When hacking her memories, you will encounter the first mutant - if he catches you (see the picture above) you will see the 'Game Over' screen (the game will allow you to resume from the last checkpoint, however, you will lose the chance to unlock this trophy). In the later stages of the game, these difficult moments will occur most often when entering other people's minds. All the locations where you have to do this are indicated in the game guide with the bold font.

Important - If you want to secure yourself and unlock this achievement, try keeping a backup save files before entering someone's mind (and before going to the grand finale). In the PS4 version of the game, you can copy the save file onto a USB drive. In the PC version, the save files can be found in the hidden folder - C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\TheObserver.

Obsessive

Trophy type: Silver - Trophy list - Game Guide - Observer Game Guide

Trophy type: Silver

Unlocking: Analyze 100 objects.

Commentary: This is not a difficult trophy to unlock, however, you have to remember about it basically from the first moments of the game. You can use the EM Vision (scanning various devices) and Bio Vision (scanning human tissue and blood traces) modes to analyze the objects of the environment. Try to turn them on whenever you enter a new important location (such as the crime scene) and during the exploration of the block of flats. Each new trace and interactive item has to be scanned, even if it does not have any special meaning and even if you have already scanned similar objects (e.g. intercoms).

Pandemic

Trophy type: Gold - Trophy list - Game Guide - Observer Game Guide

Trophy type: Gold

Unlocking: Find all nanophage patient cards in a single playthrough.

Commentary: Nanophage Cards constitute unique items in the games - you can see the example in the picture above. You can find these cards throughout different locations - mostly in the apartments, corridors, bathrooms, and in the basement. Additionally, several cards are located in the mind hacking sequences - if you miss these, you will not be able to return for them later.

To unlock this trophy, you have to collect all 69 cards AND you have to do this during a single playthrough. So, you cannot start the game over to locate only the missing cards - whenever you start a new game, you have to start collecting the cards from scratch.

A Work in Progress

Trophy type: Silver - Trophy list - Game Guide - Observer Game Guide

Trophy type: Silver

Unlocking: Find all RC cars and recall a memory of Adam.

Commentary: In the game, there are four RC Cars to be found. An example can be seen in the picture above. Each RC car has to be picked up in order to be acknowledged as found. Locate consecutive cars following the instructions below:

  1. The first RC car can be found next to the entrance to apartment 017. You can reach it soon after leaving Adam's apartment.
  2. The second RC car is located in the large kitchen on the second floor. It appears there after you are done with hacking Amir Nowak's mind and questioning his customers (go to the description of the Drug Trail trophy).
  3. The third RC car can be found in the main courtyard. It appears after you complete the sequence of hacking Amir Nowak's mind and unlock the tattoo parlor. The car will be moving around the courtyard and you have to wait until it crashes near the trash cans.
  4. The last RC car can be found when you are hacking Helena Nowak's mind (this sequence is started after you find Helena's body in the tattoo parlor). The RC car appears only if you have already collected the previous three RC cars. You can find it in the section, in which you travel using the levitating TV set.

The Prodigal Son

Trophy type: Gold - Trophy list - Game Guide - Observer Game Guide

Commentary: The mini games called 'With Fire and Sword' are available on particular computers in the in-game world. They can be found in the fourth tab from the top in the computer's menu (as shown in the picture above). In each one of the ten levels of the game, your task is to collect all the golden coins and guiding the main protagonist to the magician (also, the exit). The difficulty level increases with each stage and it becomes necessary to e.g. choose the best moments to collect the swords for defeating monsters (each sword can be used only once).

Below, you can find the locations with nine computers with the 'With Fire and Sword' game (upon finding the first one, levels 1 and 2 are unlocked):

  • The computer in the apartment 017.
  • The computer in the janitor's office - the office is right next to the place where you start the game, however, you can visit it only after investigating Adam's apartment.
  • The computer in the apartment 114.
  • The computer in the apartment 205.
  • The computer in the apartment 104 - This is the apartment of the Nowak family, which you get to visit during the story.
  • The computer in the tattoo parlor - the entrance to the parlor is in the courtyard, however, you can enter it only after reaching sufficient level in the game.
  • The computer in the basement compartment 021 - can enter it only after reaching sufficient level in the game and unlocking the basement.
  • The computer in the apartment 302 - the apartment is locked, however, after a successful hack, you know that the code to the door is 6359.
  • The computer in the murderer's hideout.

Important! BEFORE going to the murderer's hideout, make sure you discover and investigate eight out of the nine computers mentioned above. After you visit the attic you will not be able to return to the main part of the block of flats. You do not have to complete the levels 1-9 - it is enough to start the mini games. Even if you leave them for later, they will be available for you upon reaching the ninth computer in the murderer's hideout in the basement.
