Introduction

Welcome to the Metamorphosis Trophy Guide! Inspired by the worlds created by Franz Kafka, Metamorphosis is a first-person puzzle-platforming adventure set in a surrealist world. You play as Gregor who sets out on a journey to find out why he was transformed into a bug. Most trophies will unlock as you play through the story, with only a few related to Side Missions or activities, especially in Chapter 7 – The Village. The game sports a total of 20 Collectibles (Effigies) scattered throughout the different Chapters. Refer to the Collectibles Video Guide to find them all.

Step 1: Play through the Story While Collecting all Effigies and Unlock the First Ending (Condemn Joseph)

Your first step is simple. Play through the story while referring to our Collectibles Video Guide to find out where all Effigies are. At the end of Chapter 8 – The Tower, you need to store the verdict in order to condemn Joseph and unlock the trophy related to the first ending. Follow the directions under  :gold: A Cage Went in Search of a Bird to find out how.

Step 2: Replay “The Tower” for the Second Ending (Save Joseph)

After completing the story, Choose Chapter unlocks in the Main Menu. Now reload Chapter 8 – The Tower to unlock the second ending. At the end of Chapter 8 – The Tower, you need to burn the verdict in order to save Joseph and unlock the trophy related to the second ending. Follow the directions under :gold: A True Hero Must Do Romance to find out how.

Step 3: Miscellaneous Trophies (Optional)

This step is optional. If you need to, use the Choose Chapter feature from the game’s Main Menu to reload any Chapter and unlock any remaining trophies. Refer to the guide below for the chapter-specific trophies. Congratulations on your new shiny Platinum.

Proto-human belief
All those Effigies in ruin.
Metamorphosis has 20 Collectible Locations (Effigies). Every Chapter has at least one. Effigies look like a small tent structure adorned by mushrooms and eggs. Whenever you pick an Effigy up, the game automatically saves progress. This means that you can exit back out to the Main Menu and choose another Chapter if you need to clean them up as soon as you’ve collected one and don’t need to pick them up again if you die.
Mr. Right
Communicate to Joseph his trial date
Chapter 4 – Lawyer’s Office

Halfway through Chapter 4 – Lawyer’s Office you’ll be on the lawyer’s desk. Right in front of the lawyer, there’s an opening in the desk you can go through that gives you access to the insides of the desk. Make your way to the room with the contraption that powers the ledger back up and when you crawl back up to the desk, approach the red dial and set the date to June 3rd. Then, climb on the nearby bell to alert the lawyer. He will tell Joseph his trial date, thereby unlocking the trophy.

    Hey, just in case it might help someone who downloaded the game prior to delisting, but I found out the trophy Elevator Bug is technically missable.
    Indeed, I did not see the sandwich on the desk on which you’re supposed to go to get elevated to the upper shelf, and Iwas able to climb up using the lamp, thus missing the trophy.
    Nothing too bad, you can replay chapter 2 later to get it, but quite frustrating.
