Bugged trophy

Roll Over trophy is not popping (NA version) on VITA, any solution?

Something that can happen on Vita is that the trophy subsystem is not always properly initialised when you get your first trophy so it doesn't pop as expected. We optimised the POWGI games to get you into the puzzles as quickly as possible so this happened more often than we'd like (you'll see similar things on this forum for the Epic Word Search games). If what you're doing now to try to unlock this trophy is "launch game, select first puzzle, highlight any word backwards" all as quickly as possible, this could be working against you. Close the game and restart it, leave it on the menu screen for 5 minutes and then try to highlight a word backwards.

 

If that doesn't work, we're into the realms of deleting save data and trying again, so get everything else first, or take a backup. Then wipe the save file and do the same as above - giving it plenty of time to crank things up in the background before attempting the trophy. It's all system-level stuff and the game can't tell whether the console is ready, which is the root of this kind of problem. The game will remember that it thinks it awarded "Roll Over" and not keep trying (you'll select hundreds of words in reverse naturally while playing, and trying to pop the same trophy many times causes a different set of problems with PSN). I think it retries once per launch, but if writes this to the save file you'll need to delete it now to get the trophy. Sorry, I don't remember exactly how we implemented that.

It popped! I didn't realize that I need to highlight regular word backwards:)
