Goodbye Stacey's RoomComplete all memories in Rockford's room.

Matching The DrapesComplete all memories in Cassandra's room.

Automatically unlocks after completing Chapter 13: Cassandra's House.

Eight Minute OdysseyComplete all memories in Slater's room.

Automatically unlocks after completing Chapter 25: Slater's House.

Last SongComplete the game.

Automatically unlocks after completing Chapter 30: Finale. It took me about three hours to complete the game and earn this trophy and achievement.

ThrashedOllie a car.

During any of the skating sections, press A or X as a car approaches you to jump over it. Look for smaller cars as these are much easier to jump over.

Front to BackFind everything in the bedrooms and all the unique conversations.

This requires you to complete all interactions and conversations across Rockford's, Debbie's, Cassandra's, and Slater's bedrooms. Interact with each item with a white-colored circle and speak to each character before you interact with the yellow-circled item every time to ensure you get this. Full guide coming soon.

French ConnectionKiss for 60 seconds.

In Chapter 3: The Kiss, sit in the scene for a minimum of 60 seconds with the tongues on the screen. You do not need to move them around, but feel free if you want to gross yourself out a bit. When you select "That's Enough" the achievement or trophy will unlock.

Smooth ShopperDon't crash once while escaping in the shopping cart.

In Chapter 5: Shopping Cart Bomb, avoid crashing into a wall or any cars as you go. It is okay if you knock into some of the boxes in the alley or traffic cones, as I unlocked the achievement when I hit the boxes right near the start of this scene.

Grunge Metal AlchemistMake Slater's secret slushy recipe.

In Chapter 8: Ultimate Slushie, mix Blue Crush, Bubblegum, Lime, and Orange.

You can learn where to find the secret recipe in our guide.

Cone Island, Baby.Knock over 10 traffic cones during the skate from Rockford's house.

During Chapter 11: Skate to Cassandra's, steer yourself into 10 different traffic cones.

Skim GordonThrow a stone through the tyre swing.

There is a tire swing on the right side of the lake in Chapter 12: Skipping Stones. Aim your reticle up and towards the top and middle of the tire and hold RT or R2 to charge your throw.

Instructions Not RequiredComplete minimaster assembly in under 15 seconds.

In Chapter 13: Cassandra's House, you will need to repair the minimaster. To do this quickly, immediately flip it over, remove the battery cover, correctly insert two batteries, replace the battery cover, turn it back over, and press the On button on the left. It sounds like a lot, but it is pretty easy.

And It's Outta There!Hit only home runs as Cassandra.

In Chapter 14: Softball, make sure you get the timing right when batting as Cassandra. As long as you make a connection with the ball, you will get a home run. Use Rockford's attempts at the beginning of this chapter to get a feel for the timing. If you make a mistake, start the chapter again.

Triple PlyThrow 50 rolls at the house.

During Chapter 15: Toilet Paper Attack, just throw 50 rolls at the principal's house. Keep going until the trophy or achievement pops, rather than exiting the scene when you are given the option to.

It's the Pigs, DarlingHit 3 pig balloons.

In Chapter 16: Floating on Sadness, move Rockford into each of the big pig balloons as you are floating through the air. This is towards the end of the scene. This can easily be done by just not touching the controller, as you will automatically hit the pig balloons this way.

Don't. Move.Take 20 photos in Bodacious Cretaceous.

During Chapter 18: Bodacious Cretaceous, use the minimaster to take 20 photos. You can just spam this the first chance you get to immediately unlock the trophy or achievement if you are not bothered about what the photos are.

Appetite for DestructionExplode all objects on your way to the secret hideout.

In Chapter 19: Skateboard Explosion, use LT or L2 and RT or R2 to explode items as you are on your skateboard. I just kept pressing the trigger buttons whenever I saw any item pop up and unlocked this on the first attempt. You can also just mash the triggers to make sure you do not miss any.

Paint it, Black, If You WantPaint the entire door in under 30 seconds.

In Chapter 21: Door Painting, use the large paint roller and hold down RT or R2 to do large vertical lines of paint. Start in the bottom-left corner, go up, move the roller with a tiny overlap, and work across the door so you do not miss narrow strips around the edges or between passes.

Sofa King FastGet the couch in place within 30 seconds.

In Chapter 22: Couch Moving, keep moving the couch over to the right, using the analog sticks to move up and down between the obstacles. Move it into the blue outline on the ground by the campfire within 20 seconds and place it down to unlock this trophy or achievement.

Leaves That Are GreenClear the leaves in under 45 seconds.

In Chapter 23: Leaf Sweeping, use RT or R2 to sweep all the leaves out of the circle around the campfire in under 45 seconds. Press and hold RT or R2 to charge up your sweep and move more leaves much farther. Using the charged sweep was the fastest way of clearing leaves when I unlocked this.

From the HipHit all the cans in under 30 seconds.

In Chapter 24: Slingshot, hit all of the cans and bottles on the car. One missed shot can be costly because of the time it takes to fire and re-aim the slingshot, so focus on accuracy and you should get this easily.

DoppelbangerKnock over all the character cutouts in the video store.

In Chapter 26: Starlight Video, move Slater into the character cutouts at the end of aisles and around the edges of the store. Make sure they fall on the floor and this achievement or trophy will unlock. Do not go to the counter with your selected movies until you have unlocked it.

Tapehead GraveyardKnock 200 VHS tapes off the shelves in the video store.

In the same Starlight Video chapter, have Slater walk close to the shelves with the tapes on them until this trophy or achievement unlocks.

Well, Take a Look at YouDon't miss a single jump or slide while rescuing Cassandra.

In Chapter 27: The Run, make sure that you jump or slide past every obstacle on your way to save Cassandra from being caught by her dad.

Banned in MassachusettsDon't miss any fireworks in the coastal cruise.

In Chapter 28: Coastal Cruise, use LT or L2 and RT or R2 to detonate fireworks as you are driving down the road. I missed this on my first attempt by reacting only when I saw fireworks, but repeatedly pressing the triggers unlocked it on my second attempt through chapter select.

Fight for Your RightAcquire all the items at the party.

During Chapter 29: Party at the Ritz, keep moving around the party until you have accepted every item given out to you by other partygoers. Make sure you get right into the corners of the party. If it has not unlocked, circle back around the party a second time before speaking to Camille Cole after she descends from the sky.
