Amazing, thank you for this useful forum thread sunashigure1!

 

I wanted to follow that guide for the final challenge trophy, it seems to be the right one, especially for the tip to take pictures (with a cellphone) sometimes and turn off the PS4 to Rest Mode while solving a puzzle, to stop the timer:

 

 

 

will go for it soon

Thank you and my pleasure!

 

Appreciate the video you posted, but The Witness got patched and the Rest Mode trick doesn't work anymore.

 

Tip to take pictures is helpful - I didn't and got lost in the Maze, which costed me some time. Thankfully, you have around 6 minutes and 30 seconds to get all puzzles done, so there is a margin for error. I believe anyone with strong willpower and perseverance will be able to get this trophy. We need more games like this one ^0^

The tetris puzzles always get to me hahahaha 

 

Hahaha, yep.

 

Tetris in The Witness seems little too unorthodox (compared to the other puzzles), but is a great addition nonetheless.

 

I try to combine those 2 blocks together in my head, always ^0^

Damn this trophy is frying my head. Im not the best with the tetris ones but I can get them done. I just can't do the pillars. Closest I've got is the last pillar.

 

I dunno if it's the music that makes me fumble or if I been getting harsh rng. I will keep trying and after watching the vid i got a good tip from the colour puzzle and the right pillar and gonna try it without that damn music

Aye, it's a very demanding trophy indeed. For pillars try to be "snaky" (zigzaggy) - all my attempts with "straight lines" ended up in failure. That might be just me, so take it with a grain of salt.

 

Cool thing about pillars is they won't randomise like other puzzles - you could hail mary willy-nilly, in a pinch.

 

Muting the TV is a good idea, as the music can make people nervous (especially at the end, like you know the time is running out). RNG plays a role as well.

 

You will get it done, eventually. Fingers crossed for your run.

 

On a side note, you have an amazing trophy completion rate ^0^ Well done!

Tried a few runs without the music and it's certainly less stressful. However still no luck yet.

Thanks. I try to 100% every game I play. I know it won't last as eventually I will be bested by a certain trophy. Right now I feel its this 1. Just didn't think my completion would end with a puzzle game lol

Never mind I got it. Your tips helped for certain. Thanks so much @sunashigure1

- I turned off sound to cut down the adrenaline

- My maze was super easy to navigate

- The colour puzzle seemed so easy when you look at the groupings that are impossible where they were on opposite ends. Spent so much less time with them

- I zigged the shit out of my pillars and made several mistakes, but got it done. 

Final time 5:57

Very glad to hear it! Your completion won't end that easily ^0^

 

More than 30 seconds to spare. Not too shabby :)

 

My pleasure and congrats. You earned it.

So I got the glitch to work but under different circumstances. I did my best to time the completion of the 2nd Triangle puzzle, I was a little early but not too early and I waited after pressing X dont press anything. I wanted a little over 10 seconds after the screen went dark but it never took me out of the puzzle. I pressed Circle and Heard the puzzles shut off in the pillar room, thankfully to a comment on youtube, I walked over to the pillars and saw they were off, I held the PS button and closed application, When I reopened the game, I spawned by the 2nd Triangle puzzle with the screen off and heard a sound, I walked to the pillars room and they were on! Infinite time to complete them and satisfying trophy pop!
