The Big Sleep
You got yourself killed.

You will need to determine that Rayne is the killer for your playthrough to earn this trophy. Only Rayne can kill you in the game and this is done by not selecting Rayne as the killer when you are asked by Chief Dupont who the killer is. When you select Violet or Zak as the killer of the game there will have a cut scene where you will end up being in front of Rayne where you will need to shapeshift into Rayne so that you are killed by Rayne.

Note: If you are trying to earn this trophy during a single playthrough, Rayne must be the killer in order for this to work. If you are lucky and he is then you can make a PS+ Cloud save before ending Chapter 6 (22:00). Play through Chapter 7 (23:00) to earn this trophy and then reload your save and now choose Rayne as the killer.

Look Mum I’m A Detective
Picked Dorota’s murderer first time.

Every new game that you play will have a randomized killer for that game. Only Violet, Rayne, or Zak can be the killer so never select any other characters when the time comes late in the game to tell Chief Dupont who the killer is. Therefore you will need to know what the dialogue is that leads to determining who your playthrough’s killer is. To do this you will need to watch for the following lines of dialogue for Violet, Rayne, and Zak.

Violet
The first possible suspect you will examine is Violet. In Chapter 1 (17:00), you will need to be Sam and you will need to speak with Violet who will tell you to meet with Chief Dupont. Then go back to the Guesthouse and you need to talk to Bronwyn, Rayne, and Lexie. Next you will to go and speak to Violet again. The choices will be:
-Did you know Dorota?
If Violet responses with, “No. And I didn’t murder her if that’s what you’re asking.”

This will mean that Violet is the killer. If her response is different then she is not the killer during this playthrough.

Rayne
The second possible suspect you will examine is Rayne. In Chapter 1 (17:00), you will need to shapeshift into Lexie and then talk to Rayne. The choices will be:
– How are you?
If Rayne responses with, “Do you think Dorota was planning to marry Oscar?”

-Tell me about Ellis Munro.
– What’s thee connection between Ellis and Dorota?
– They both know the killer?
– Rayne said you knew about rites.
– What is a rite?
– How do you know about travellers?
– Why were there three victims before?
– Dorota had a coin in her mouth. Part of a rite?
– Yes
If Bronwyn responses with, “I should have known that, it’s the same as Birmingham.”

This will mean that Rayne is the killer. If the responses are different then he is not the killer during this playthrough.

This will mean that Zak is the killer. If the response is different then he is not the killer during this playthrough.
