Trophy Hunting and Platinum Guide

A guide to achieving the platinum trophy in Summer Nightmare, including Nightmare difficulty and collectibles.

For completionists aiming for the platinum trophy in Summer Nightmare, specific strategies and considerations are necessary. Unlike some other games, Summer Nightmare does not require multiple playthroughs for any of the trophies, except for the difficulty-related one.

• Nightmare Difficulty: The most significant trophy requirement is completing the game on Nightmare difficulty. This should ideally be done on your first playthrough if you're confident, as it avoids a second full run. If you're struggling, consider playing on an easier difficulty first to learn the mechanics, then starting a New Game+ on Nightmare.
• Collectibles: While the game is streamlined, there are still collectibles like Book Notes, Character Notes, and all Treasure Chests. Use the in-game notebook and the Moon Lens/Yata no Kagami Quartz to track your progress.
• Minigames: All minigames (Vantage Masters, Pom! Pom! Party!, etc.) have associated trophies. complete all challenges and unlock all rewards within each minigame.
• Combat Trophies: Trophies for actions like winning 100 battles, using Rush 100 times, or performing a certain number of S-Crafts will accumulate naturally if you utilize all combat mechanics. There is no trophy for canceling Arts in this title.
• Daydreams: Ensure you unlock and complete all Daydreams in the True Reverie Corridor, as these often have associated trophies or unlock conditions.

Plan your playthrough carefully, especially regarding difficulty, and consistently check your trophy list to ensure you're on track for that coveted platinum.
