Introduction:
Welcome to the Stifled Trophy Guide!
Stifled is a multi award winning sound based stealth thriller, compatible for PSVR (or without). Reveal the environment around you by generating sound waves using and throwing items you find, or by using your own voice via the mic. But tread carefully… If you make too much noise you might attract some unwanted attention… They hear your fear…
Roadmap:
Step 1: Scream!
Now return to the main menu, and adjust your settings ready for your
Here you will just earn: Screamer
Step 2: Complete the game never pressing R2 (voice). Grabbing all miscellaneous trophies & all collectibles if you wish. And selecting ‘NO’ for the final option.
There are 2 separate sound based trophies. If you complete the game without ever using your voice pulse with R2, (or mic), you will get the Stifled trophy. Everything is fine and easy though as you can throw objects to produce sound instead.
Chapters 1, 4, & 6 are very easy and you won’t need to produce any sound at all. (Making the clean up for the second sound based trophy for not throwing objects Hands Free much faster, only requiring another half playthrough to finish off.)
There are not many collectables in the game (24 notes and 11 dolls), and they are mainly in plain sight. It is not necessary to get them all in your first playthrough as you can just mop up anything you’ve missed via chapter select. But if for ease and speed you want to see all collectables locations I have added timestamps for all of them in the video description of the video walkthrough linked below.
Because the final chapter, chapter 6, does not need you to make any sound, you don’t have to reply that particular chapter for the alternate sound trophy, so do remember to select ‘NO’ when presented with the option near the end, in order to obtain the True End trophy, so you wont have to replay the chapter.
There are only a few miscellaneous trophies, please see the trophy descriptions in the trophy guide below for what you will need to do to obtain them.
In this full playthrough you will earn these trophies: House 1973
Crash
Orphanage
House 1975
Ship
House ????
Safecracker

Bookworm 1
Bookworm 2
Bookworm 3
Doll Collector 1
Doll Collector 2
Doll Collector 3

Orphans
Depression
True End
Stifled
Step 3: Replay chapters 2, 3 & 5 without throwing any objects.
Now all you have left is one trophy, for NOT THROWING any objects, so go to chapter select and just quickly replay these 3 chapters:
Chapter 2 – Crash
Chapter 3 – Orphanage
Chapter 5 – Ship
To progress through the dark levels or during enemy encounters this time just use your voice pulse with R2 to see instead of throwing objects.
Make sure to not accidentally pick up any unnecessary objects, as dropping them will count as them being thrown. But if this does happen its not a big deal, you can just press ‘reload checkpoint’ and it will restart you not far away.
Here you will earn: Hands Free

Figure out the safe’s password early. |
During Chapter 1, go to the safe at the back of the upstairs office, and enter the code: 6572.
Can’t you let go of that bottle? |
During Chapter 2, at the start there will be 4 items at the crash site, and one of them will be a bottle. Carry this bottle to the end of the chapter.
Give the children hope. |
At the beginning of Chapter 3, In the orphanage turn on all of the light switches for all rooms from the ground floor AND upstairs.
It’s all coming back to me now. |
*There have been some reports of the trophy not unlocking from simply gathering the collectables.
If this happens to you, during this chapter 4 which is a safe and short area anyway, just have a better look around the house, entering the 2 extra little rooms you hadn’t previously been into, maybe looking in some cupboards and inspecting some random objects, videos, tarot cards, etc and I’m positive you will unlock the trophy.
One person reported when they had entered the downstairs bathroom adjacent to the kitchen, and looked at the hand-print on the mirror, the trophy unlocked for them then. So try that first!
Apologies that I cannot be more specific/clear on the trophies requirements, but you will get it don’t worry!
Is that paint? |
During Chapter 4, when you go to the master bedroom there will be a painting in the bath in the bathroom. When you leave the bathroom there will be a scene change where everything will turn red. After this has happened turn back around and go and look at the bathroom painting again. You will now see a different image, unlocking the trophy.
Squealed like a little kid. |
*You need a mic for this trophy.
Set up the mic calibration via settings. Start the game and when you get control of your character simply scream into your microphone to unlock this trophy!

Other than the 2 tutorial prompts which are allowed, just never use .
Instead, you need to throw objects to create sound and navigate through the black and white scenes.
In fact, you even only need to make any sound during chapters 2, 3, and 5.
