Introduction

Welcome to the Alan Wake 2 DLC #1: Night Springs Trophy Guide! Night Springs contains three small episodes where you play as different characters. They are all relatively short stories, with 1-2 missable trophies in each episode. You can play them in any order and on any difficulty.

Step 1: Complete Episode 1: Number One Fan

Play through Episode 1 and make sure to defeat 3 Haters with one explosion (see Hot Biscuits!). This is best done during the first encounter. There is also one missable Writer’s Message before you enter the cabin (see I Could Listen to Him All Day).

Step 2: Complete Episode 2: North Star

Play through Episode 2 and make sure to open all 6 Stashes (see Percolate), as well as get through the Warehouse stealth section in two attempts or less (see Smooth Blend). You can back up your save file for this to make it easier.

Step 3: Complete Episode 3: Time Breaker

Play through Episode 3 and make sure to read the pages in the Green Room near the beginning (see This Page Here).

	Accessorize! Take the “accessories” from the kitchen
Episode 1: Number One Fan Story-related. Cannot be missed. You will get this when you grab the weapons at the beginning of the episode.
	Hot Biscuits! Defeat 3 Haters at once with any kind of explosive
Episode 1: Number One Fan Missable! This can be done during the first encounter. You will need to group up three Haters pretty closely as the explosive radius isn’t massive. You can either shoot the canisters in the environment which have a larger explosion, or use your handheld explosives ( by default) which have the benefit of you not needing to group up enemies around a particular canister. The best way to do this is to kill two of the first three enemies that spawn to have a Hater break through the gate leading onto the dock, then walk onto the dock and turn around. With any luck you will be able to group up three enemies near the gate and be able to throw a handheld explosive. Alternatively there is a canister on the ground by the beach which you can also use.
	I Could Listen to Him All Day Listen to all the Writer’s messages
Episode 1: Number One Fan Missable! There are three instances of the Writer’s messages in this episode. Two of them are story-related and cannot be missed, but one is missable before the cabin. When you go to collect the book in the cafe, the fish will speak to you. Cannot be missed. Continue through the chapter until you cross a bridge. Follow the path until you go downhill slightly and there will be a path to the right leading to a book. Read the book for this one to register. If you reach the cabin where you look for the Bad Boy, you’ve gone too far. After the cabin you will head up towards the mansion, when you approach the stairs a deer will speak to you. Cannot be missed.
	Love Always Wins! Complete Episode 1: Number One Fan
Episode 1: Number One Fan Story-related. Cannot be missed. Simply finish the episode to unlock this. Reach the door on the top floor of the mansion to finish it.
	Smooth Blend In two tries or less, enter the warehouse office without being caught by the Coffee Mascots
Episode 2: North Star Missable! Once you enter the Warehouse, you will be in a stealth section with no weapon. Coffee Mascots will be roaming the Warehouse, and you will need to reach the Office without being caught in two tries or less. Reloading your checkpoint while being caught will still count, so it is recommended you make a back up of your save file once you enter the Warehouse. Once the Mascot in front of you heads to your left, go to the right from the beginning to find the Warehouse Office Key. Now approach where you first spotted the Mascot and enter the Office on your right. There is plenty of time to get the key and enter the room before he comes back.
	Dark as the Void Solve the optimal roasting temperature of Dark Triangle Coffee
Episode 2: North Star Story-related. Cannot be missed. Right next to you as you enter Coffee World will be the Roasting Bar. Here you will find a keypad with a riddle on the wall to the right of it. Input the code 487 and you’ll receive this trophy. You will need to do this before you able to enter the Warehouse so it cannot be missed.
	Percolate Solve all Stashes
Episode 2: North Star Missable! Throughout Coffee World you will find six Stashes that can be opened with a short Simon Says sequence ranging between 3-6 inputs. Open all six Stashes for this trophy. There are maps around Coffee World you can look at for reference. To the east of the gazebo where you find the Sheriff, the Stash is behind a building. To the right of the Welcome Centre tent with the glowing TV, this Stash will be by the Percolator ride in the corner. Now head left from the tent down to the dock to find this Stash in the corner. Head up towards the Tasting Room and enter the play area behind it to find this Stash. Approach the Slow Roaster Ferris Wheel and head left to find this Stash behind a large bottle. To the left of the Warehouse entrance, this Stash is behind a truck. You will need the flashlight from the Sheriff before you can reach this.
	You Are Coffee Complete Episode 2: North Star
Episode 2: North Star Story-related. Cannot be missed. Simply finish the episode to unlock this. You will finish it after going down the ladder in the Warehouse Office.
	This Page Here Read the screenplay in the Green Room
Episode 3: Time Breaker Missable! Near the beginning of the episode you will enter your Green Room. Make sure to interact with the pages on the floor before the body to get this trophy.
	Retro Survive the arcade game reality
Episode 3: Time Breaker Story-related. Cannot be missed. After using the Lumivista TV in Oceanview Hotel, you’ll go through a comic book reality and arrive in an arcade game reality where you’re essentially playing a side scroller. Defeat 5 waves of enemies and grab the Energy Node, then leave again.
	Ride the Vortex Travel to a new reality using a Lumivista TV
Episode 3: Time Breaker Story-related. Cannot be missed. After finding the Energy Node in the forest, return to the trailer and interact with the Lumivista TV twice to arrive at the Oceanview Hotel.
	Multiversal Agent Complete Episode 3: Time Breaker
Episode 3: Time Breaker Story-related. Cannot be missed. Simply finish the episode to unlock this. You will finish it upon completing the text-based adventure.

I completed chapter 1 and it says I only got 2/3 for I could listen to him all day. Is this glitched or is it actually missable?

“I Could Listen to Him All Day” might be glitched or is missable. Somehow I didn’t unlock it during episode 1. It shows 2/3 for me.

  Hmm I’m not sure then, I got the trophy after talking to the deer before the boss fight, but it was the only the second time I recalled having a conversation with the Writer so I wasn’t sure where the third one on the trophy tracker actually went up and assumed it was story. I’ll test it out.

  The missable message can be found down a left path before you enter the cabin. You need to read the book for it to count. I have now updated this accordingly.
