ROADMAP
Intro
Deer & Boy is one of those games that reminds you video games can be about sensations and feelings just as much as anything else. It is a short, delicate and above all deeply human journey.
Getting to 100% will not give you much trouble. There are no collectibles to hunt down and nothing is permanently missable, since you can jump back to any point through Chapter Select and pick up anything you skipped. The only trophies to keep an eye on are a handful that need to be done within a specific chapter without slipping up.
Step 1. Play through the game + Chapter-specific trophies.
Just play through the game while looking out for the chapter-specific trophies below. If you do happen to miss any, you can use the Chapter Select option to go back and try again. If done correctly, you will have the Platinum Trophy at the end of this playthrough.
Semi-missable trophies per chapter:
- Do not disturb (Chapter 4)
- Free hug (Chapter 8)
- Nice try! (Chapter 9)
- Keep a low profile (Chapters 11 to 13)
- Forbidden fruit (Chapter 19)
- Hidden Room (Chapter 23)
- Running man (Chapter 28)
- Close call! (Chapter 35)
- Flawless derby (Chapter 53)
