Tormented Souls Trophy Guide & Roadmap

Once you reach the Sacrifice Room where you fight 4 Hammers, use the Antidote on the Monster. This will reveal a pair of Bolt Cutters. Continue and fight the boss, until you return to the mansion. In the Meeting Hall, use VHS Tape (Experiment Room) to return to the past and use the bolt cutters on Anna’s cell. Now simply use the Cross Key on the front door of the mansion to escape.

This sounds daunting, but it is very manageable. After 1-2 playthroughs you will be very familiar with enemy locations. It’s advised that you don’t combine this with the No Save playthrough as it can be quite easy to make a mistake and take a hit, and without heals you can take about 4-6 hits the entire game, depending on the enemy. I was able to complete this with 3 hits, with all hits being very avoidable. Below are several tips to hopefully make your time easier:

• Save regularly. There are 14 recording tapes throughout the game, so you can use them liberally.
• Don’t kill every enemy. Some enemies, such as Wheelchairs, are often not worth the effort of killing, while others are simply easier to dodge around rather than fight.
• Use your dodge. While aiming, you can dodge backwards by pressing , which can be helpful when trying to put down an enemy and they get too close.
• Memorize enemy locations. If you do other playthroughs before this, you should have a good recollection of enemy locations, which can help to get the drop on them or avoid them.
• Attack from off-screen. If you know an enemy is nearby but can’t see them, try aim at them. If it auto-targets them you can attack, which can sometimes give you the extra gap needed to down an enemy before they reach you.
• Reload in your inventory. Reloading your weapons in your inventory will stop the enemies from attacking you mid reload animation.
• Abuse the Shotgun pause exploit. If you pause the game at the same moment that you shoot the shotgun (so pressing  and simultaneously), the enemy will take massive damage. This will instantly kill any enemy in the game, so can be very useful for dealing with stronger enemies.

Once you gain access to the Morgue, you’ll need to move a cabinet to reveal the entrance to the Experiment Room. In here you’ll have a skeleton with buttons on it, as well as a plaque with a riddle, Press the buttons in the following order: Head, Stomach, Hand, Throat, Heart, Throat.

This will open a secret passage, where you’ll find a VHS tape. Head back to the Meeting Room (there’s conveniently a ladder to it in the Morgue), and use it on the projector.

Before you can solve the combination key puzzles, you first need the key and the fragment. The fragment can be found inside the Boiler Room, whereas the key can be found inside the prison cell hidden in the Experiment Room.

• Pharmacy – Star, Triangle, Hexagon
• Archive – Square, Triangle, Star
• Intensive Care Corridor – Pentagon, Triangle, Circle
• Dining Room – Square, Hexagon, Pentagon

This is the first trophy you will get, as this is the very first room. Open the left cabinet next to the door to receive a pocket watch which shows the time 12:35. Now interact with the padlock and input 1235 as the code. Take the wrench from within the cabinet and interact with the head to open it once. Finally, use the wrench on the door to act as a handle and open the door.

• “New Adventure” – Golden Door
• “Fallen into the sea” – Empty Basin
• “Ursa Minor” – North
• “Furious Storm” – Wooden Door
• “Floating Alone” – Dirt Basin
• “Deserted Island” – Ember Basin
• “Days have past” – West/O

Completing this will award you your trophy and lead you through to a room where you can get the Antidote, which is needed for the Adoption Ending.

It’s recommended to do this after at least one playthrough so you have a good understanding of the world layout and puzzles. Three hours is very lenient once you know where to go. I did this in about 1 hour 50 minutes, combined with the No Healing playthrough. Do note that the timer continues even when paused and in menus, so if you ever need a break or want to check the route or puzzles, try and do so while moving or after saving if you’re not combining this with No Save playthrough. Below are several tips to hopefully make your time easier:

• Memorize the route and puzzles. The key to any speedrun, it can be very easy to lose time if you go the wrong way constantly. The route in the Tormented Souls Walkthrough is efficient so if you follow that route you should have no issues.
• Don’t rush. This may seem counter-intuitive, but with the leniency for time you don’t need to rush through every room avoiding every enemy. You can take your time dealing with enemies that are too difficult to avoid to save yourself potentially dying in a stupid mistake. This is especially the case if you choose to combine this with your No Save playthrough.
• Abuse the Shotgun pause exploit. If you pause the game at the same moment that you shoot the shotgun (so pressing  and simultaneously), the enemy will take massive damage. This will instantly kill any enemy in the game, so can be very useful for dealing with stronger enemies.
• For additional reference see Tormented Souls Walkthrough & Tormented Souls Puzzle Solutions.

For this you’ll want to play a bit more cautiously than the No Heals and Speedrun playthrough(s), simply as a big mistake can set you back hours if it’s late-game. Fortunately there are lots of healing items throughout the game, so grab as many as you can and deal with enemies as safely as you see fit. Some enemies are safer to avoid until you have the Shotgun (like Wheelchairs), and others are easier to avoid altogether (like Hammers). The biggest imposition for this trophy is having to do it all in one go, but fortunately the game isn’t prone to crashing so you can pause the game or suspend your console if you need a break without fear of losing your progress.

• Shotgun Part A: Being held by a baby doll in West Corridor, just outside Bathroom West in W-F1.
• Shotgun Part B: Being held by a baby doll in Observation Room in W-F2.

• Medical Cabinet in Room 2E in W-F2.
• Medical Cabinet in Boiler Room.
• Medical Cabinet in Pharmacy in E-F1, behind a combination key door.
• Sitting in a tray in Room 2A in W-F2, obtainable after getting the Electrical Lamp.
• Medical Cabinet in Shower Room in W-F1, obtainable after getting the Electrical Lamp.
• Medical Cabinet in Bunker 3A, near the end of the game.
• Sitting on a table during the final fight.

This trophy is for getting the Remorse Ending.

In order to get this ending, you cannot interact with the Monster in the Sacrifice Room near the end of the game. Do not use the Antidote on her, simply finish the game regularly.

After meeting the Priest in the X-Ray Room, you’ll move into the Generator Room where you need to start the generator. Grab the valave from next to the generator and read the note on the generator to see the requirement to start it: 10 kg/cm. Now head back to the generator panel downstairs and use the valve on the bottom left pipe, and turn on the valves so it reads 11 kg/cm:

Once you start the generator, it will go back to 10kg/cm and turn on.

After lowering the water in the Sewer, you’ll be able to grab a TV Dial on the ground. Grab this and head through the Sewer to enter the Sewer Storage Room. Go through the mirror to Caroline’s Bedroom. Use the TV Dial on the TV and you’ll be able to cycle through 12 channels, 5 of which will show an image. You need to cycle between the 5 images in a particular order, much like a combination lock. Do note that if you over-rotate the dial at all, it will reset the puzzle. Simply turn the TV off and on to try it again. The solution is:

• Start on the Yin Yang
• Turn dial right/clockwise 8 times to the Spider
• Turn dial left/counter-clockwise 5 times to the 4-Leafed Clover
• Turn dial right/clockwise 7 times to the Tricycle
• Turn dial left/counter-clockwise 4 times to the Die

After finding your old hiding place (see Remembrance), grab the fishing hook next to the music box. Head back into the Office and you’ll be prompted to press a button on the desk, which reveals a new VHS Tape. Grab it and go to the Meeting Room to play it and enter the past. Now in the Dentist Room, head to the Public Bathroom where you started the game and get your own eye. Combine the eye with the fishing hook, and finally head to the vault in Sewer where you lowered the water and use both retina scanners to open the vault.

After meeting the Priest for the second time in the Dining Room, he’ll give you you a metal bolt. Use this in Reception Room on the fusebox to open the West Wing Corridor. Now, you’ll need to use the elevator in here to go back down to W-F1. Grab the trolley directly outside the elevator and push it in so that the door doesn’t close, as the elevator can only be called from Floor 2. Return to the fusebox in Reception Room via the Main Hall, and take the metal bolt out, then head back to the elevator and go up to W-F2. Finally, use the metal bolt in the fusebox next to the Clean Hallway to open it.

After opening the Intensive Care Corridor with the combination key, you’ll find the Priest in Room 2B. Head into Bathroom AB and light the candles near the mirror to enter it. Head into Room 2D to find a guillotine, use your scalpel to cut the rope and get the Parchment Scroll. Now head into Bathroom CD to find a hammer on a crate, then into Room 2C and open a chest to get the Mannequin Arm.

Now return back through the mirror in Bathroom AB, and head to where the guillotine was in Room 2D. You’ll now find a judge’s podium here with several rotating dials. Place the Parchment Scroll in the indent, then rotate the dials to the following positions: Hands on Eyes, Hands on Ears, Hands on Mouth, Headless. Use the hammer on the gavel space to get the Staple Gun. Finally, head back through the mirror in Bathroom AB and use both the Mannequin Arm and Staple Gun on the mannequin in Room 2D.

In Bunker 1-2B you’ll find a series of pipes with a pump and plenty of valves on it. Before you can use this, you’ll need to get 3 pipe caps, one can be found in Bunker 1A, one in Bunker 2A and one in Bunker 3B. Lastly you’ll also need a Gas Canister which can be found in the Prison right at the end of the Bunker. With these items, you’ll now be able to solve the puzzle to pump the gasoline. Valves that are parallel to the pipe are open, and valves that are perpendicular are closed. Below shows the valves to open/close, as well as the pipes to cap:

Now with the filled Gas Canister in hand, head all the way down in Bunker Stairs to the water pump and put the gasoline in it to start it.

Immediately after traveling to the past through the projector, complete the skeleton puzzle again and go through the secret tunnel to locate Anna.

For this you’ll need to get 3 items and place them into the indents under the staircase in Main Hall

• Key Dial – Found upstairs in the Library in E-F2. You’ll need to get the car battery from behind the Pharmacy combination key door, then get the Chapel VHS Tape from behind the Dining Room combination key door. With these items, use the VHS Tape in the Meeting Room to return to the Chapel in the past, then use the Car Battery on the battery charger in the Closet. Return to the present, grab the battery and use it on the electric lift in the library. The Key Dial is sitting on the chessboard. Once you have the Key Dial, you will need to adjust the four dials to this orientation:
  
• Frozen Blood Medallion – First get the empty mold from the Laundry in W-F1, then open the cash register (0414) behind the archive combination key door to obtain a coin. Use the coin on the vending machine in the Chapel to play five rounds of Simon Says, after which you’ll get a Blood Bag. Use the Blood Bag on the Empty Mold, then use the VHS Tape obtained from the Dining Room combination key door to return to the Chapel in the past. Go into the Kitchen and use the Filled Mold on the freezer, then return to the present and take the Frozen Blood Medallion.
• ID Card – Founds in the hidden room underneath Office in E-F2. Use the Jade Eye obtained from East Wing Hall on the bust in the middle of the room, then complete the music puzzle. Going clockwise, the solution is: 1, 2, 6, 6, 1, 2
