A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead

Unlock Details

The prologue is a simple introduction to the game’s mechanics and has no enemies, so you can focus on learning the controls. Take this time to get comfortable with crouching and cautious walking, which are the main ways you will move quietly throughout the game. After spotting a deer, Martin runs off and Alex goes searching for him. Follow the path forward and make your way through the abandoned house. Once you exit the house, the prologue will end and the next chapter will begin.

To earn this trophy, you must complete the Campsite chapter and reach the road beyond the campsite. The chapter begins among tents and traps, where the first toy is found behind a television shortly after navigating bear traps and climbing a fence. Nearby documents appear along the early path on porches, barrels, picnic tables, and tables as you move through the camp and learn how to avoid or disable traps. As you progress deeper, you collect items while following signposts, climbing short ledges, and passing information boards. Several documents are placed on the ground, on tables, and attached to fences, including areas reached after acquiring the multi-tool and navigating sound traps. Inside a dusty building, two documents are found near a body just before another trap, tucked into a small side space. Later, after climbing the radio tower and unlocking a gate, additional toys are found along raised steps and off side paths near bodies where birds scatter. After a cutscene, another document sits on a crate along a timed stretch that leads toward the mines. Inside the mines, a mixtape rests on top of a sandbag at a fork, with a document lying just beside it on the floor. The final document appears after exiting the mines, lying on the ground along the path near an orange kayak. Continue forward to leave the campsite and reach the road, which completes the chapter and unlocks the trophy automatically.

Chapter 7 takes place during Day 1 while Alex rides in the back of a van as Laura drives the family toward the hospital. Unlike most of the game, this section shifts into a short defensive sequence where you must keep the creatures from climbing onto the vehicle. Use the shotgun to shoot the creatures whenever they grab onto the van. Watch both the sides and the roof carefully, as their hands will latch onto the vehicle while it’s moving. Shooting their hands will force them to release their grip and fall away. To also earn Bronze Hitting, you must finish this chapter without dying. Keep an eye on your ammo and reload whenever there is a brief pause in the attacks so you are always ready for the next wave. Try not to waste shots on creatures that are far away or not actively holding onto the van. There are no collectibles during this chapter, so your only focus here is surviving the ride and reaching the hospital safely.

To earn this trophy, you must complete the final chapter and reach the boat at the end of the fire station. The chapter begins outside, where you approach the red fire station doors and vault a fence to the left to enter. Inside the early rooms, documents are found on desks, crates, and tables near fuse boxes, including one in the equipment storage room beside a fuse and another on a crate near a door marked with a green light. As you move deeper, fuse management becomes central. After passing a fuse box that requires two fuses, a table directly ahead holds a document and a fuse. Using a plank to cross gaps opens access to additional rooms, where another document is found alongside a mixtape in the safe room on the main desk and inside a drawer. Leaving the safe room through the right-hand exit leads to a document near a dartboard, while toys are hidden at the end of corridors, behind shelves, and inside vents reached after dropping down. Progressing into the pool area, documents appear beside valves and fuse boxes, with one located near the water-level controls and another in a side room next to the switch for the pool lights. Additional toys are placed on barrels after climbing ladders and inside small rooms accessed during valve routing. After completing the pool section and returning to the safe room, the previously locked locker room contains the final documents and a mixtape, completing the collectible sets. Near the end of the chapter, after receiving the gas mask, a final toy is found in a small room with a fuse box during the last interior section. From there, follow the path forward and make your way through the final exterior stretch to reach the boat. Boarding it ends the game and unlocks the trophy automatically.

To earn this trophy, you must complete the Forest chapter and make it through the area. The chapter begins on a wooded path where the first documents are found on noticeboards directly ahead and further along the trail, with additional items placed beside the path and near the early clearings. After dropping down to the train tracks, exploration moves toward a house in the northwest. Documents and a mixtape are found inside the house on tables and in drawers, with a toy located outside near the surrounding ground. From there, progression continues through a tunnel and deeper into the forest, where more items appear along the main route, including near a fallen soldier and on ledges reached during the first creature encounter. Later, you enter another house that leads to a safe room. Several documents are placed near the entrance, upstairs on walls and floors, and inside the first room to the left. Once you leave the house and finish the final stretch of the forest, the chapter ends and the trophy unlocks automatically as you move on.

To earn this trophy, you must progress through the Harbor chapter and reach the dock at the end. The chapter starts on a split path that leads to a statue area, where a document is found on a bench facing the statue, followed by another on a picnic table further downhill. Nearby, a briefcase sits on a bench behind the statue area, containing a document and a mixtape. Story progression takes you through a garage and up an alley into a tech store, where two documents are inside. The nearby warehouse contains a mixtape in a desk drawer near the power switch. After returning to the tech store and exiting through a window near the gas station, a toy is found on a desk. A second briefcase is reached by climbing onto a truck roof outside, following the rooftop path, and opening it at a dead end to collect a document and a mixtape. Continuing forward, another toy is found up steps beyond a locked door, followed by a document near a body beside red barrels. After moving the barrels and climbing stairs, another document appears opposite a green roof hatch. At street level, a toy sits near an ambulance before entering a shelter, where three documents are found on a chair, a wall, and a desk inside the side room. After leaving the shelter and encountering the creature again, a document and plank are found inside a small building accessed via a crate near a green door. Using planks to cross gaps leads to a hut containing a toy, followed by another hut holding a document and a required story item. After using a crank to raise a boat, another document lies straight ahead on the ground, and one more is visible on the floor inside a warehouse reached by climbing a ladder. In the final section with the warehouse and dock machinery, a toy is found on an upper platform reached by carrying a plank across a gap near a yellow forklift. A document appears just past dangling chains on the lower floor, followed by another toy reached by crouching through a flashing-light area and climbing stairs. The final document is on a desk after passing through a window and descending stairs near the end of the chapter. Continue forward to reach the dock, which completes the chapter and unlocks the trophy automatically.

To earn this trophy, you must leave the hospital chapter after progressing through all required areas. The chapter starts in Alex’s room, where several documents are immediately available on the desk in front of you, on the noticeboard by the door, and on the bed. From there, you move into Martin’s room to the left, where more documents can be found starting near the bed and continuing around the room. After leaving Martin’s room, continue down the corridor toward Kenneth’s room. One document is lying on the floor outside his door, with several more pinned to noticeboards as you move through the corridors, including one just after squeezing through a narrow gap and another near the storage room. When you reach the chapel, lighting all the candles allows you to continue forward, where another document is found pinned to a noticeboard shortly after exiting. You will later return upstairs and gain access to Kenneth’s room, which contains several documents arranged around the room. After stealth sections and a vent drop, you arrive in Laura’s room, where documents are spread across the desk, the rest of the room, and the bathroom. Leaving this room, another document sits on a bench just outside, followed by items in Mark’s room and further documents downstairs in a destroyed room you pass during a creature encounter. Near the end of the chapter, additional collectibles appear after another vent section and inside a desk drawer along a corridor marked by the entrance sign. The final document is found at the reception desk before hopping the barrier, and the last toy is located in the underground parking lot near a large red car. Once you move through the hospital and exit the chapter normally, the trophy unlocks automatically.

To earn this trophy, you need to complete the Lake House chapter and reach the arrival scene at the end. The chapter begins outside by the barbecue, where the Birthday Card is found on the table to the right of Kenneth after walking over with Laura. Nearby, past the table tennis area, a shed contains several items, including a briefcase with the Live Bootleg mixtape and additional documents. After following Martin inside to look for the bottle opener, a toy sits on the right near the TV, and the Vinyl Records document is under the turntable to the left. In the kitchen, the Cake Recipe is on the corner of the table, and several documents are displayed on the wall just left of the kitchen. Once you lift the record to find the bottle opener, head upstairs, where another document is on a cabinet as you pass Martin. Upstairs, the bedroom on the right contains multiple documents and a toy spread around the room. In the opposite bedroom, Martin’s room, another document is found on his desk. The final collectibles are all located in the attic, including a note behind where you climb up, a photo frame on the right, and a toy on the table near Martin. After finishing the attic section and continuing forward, the arrival scene plays and the trophy unlocks automatically.

To earn this trophy, you must progress through the Pump Station chapter and find a way out of the facility. The chapter begins in a small room where a document is immediately available on a table behind you. Shortly after opening the first door and being introduced to flares, additional notes can be found beneath the desk with the flares and attached to a nearby locker. As you move through vents and into the next rooms, documents appear near valves, on shelves, and along the main path. During the first close encounter with the creature, a note is located just ahead on the left after crawling through a fenced gap, with a toy sitting on a table to the right. After leaving this area, you climb through a window into a larger flooded room where another document is found on a shelf, and a mixtape is located after crossing with a plank and checking a desk drawer. Continuing forward, a document rests on a crate outside a vent exit, followed by several collectibles inside the safe room area, found before squeezing through a gap, immediately after, and beyond a blockage following a short cutscene. Inside the vents, a toy can be collected at a dead end reached by taking two left turns. After dropping down from the vents, two documents are visible on boxes ahead, with another found near a ladder in the next creature-filled section. Near the end of the chapter, the final toy is located in a small flooded side area reached after turning a valve and navigating over pipes. Once you finish working through the pump rooms and make your way out via the ladder, the chapter concludes and the trophy unlocks automatically.

This trophy wraps up naturally as you finish the first real chapter, but The Ranch is also where you can quietly knock out a big chunk of early collectibles. The chapter takes you through the main ranch yard, into the central house, upstairs rooms, vents, and finally down into the basement safe room before you leave the area. Start outside by checking the main ranch building porch, where a document sits on a bench beneath the warning sign. Nearby picnic tables hold another note, and your first toy is found near the rubble by the red tractor. Moving around the left side of the ranch, climb through the open window and head into the kitchen to find another toy by a body. In the large living room beyond, a document rests on a sofa near the stairs, with a mixtape in the drawer behind it, and another note is found by the desk beneath the American flag. Upstairs, more documents appear along the hallway and inside guest rooms, including one in Guest Room 4 after unlocking it with a key. Once you obtain the screwdriver, enter the vent system and follow the left fork to a dead end to collect the final toy. After exiting the vents, additional documents and a mixtape are found on desks and inside drawers as you continue upstairs. Be careful in the bedrooms not to drop down early, but even if you do, backtracking is possible. Near the end of the chapter, the remaining seven drawings are all located in the basement safe room, and examining each one unlocks Projecting, confirming you collected everything. There is no danger in missing anything permanently here. Even after triggering cutscenes in the safe room, you can still finish collecting before leaving. Once you exit the Ranch and move the story forward, this trophy unlocks automatically. Take your time, learn the game’s rhythm, and enjoy the calm before things start getting louder.

To earn this trophy, you must complete the Trainwreck chapter and cross the river through the collapsed trainyard. The chapter starts in a cave system where you move through narrow tunnels and crates before emerging into a flooded outdoor area with sandbags, birds, and small shacks scattered along the path. Early on, you progress through shallow water and puddles using sandbags to create safe footing, moving between shacks, tents, and flickering lights. Several side paths loop around the main route, but all eventually funnel you forward toward a plank near a tent that lets you cross into the next section. After placing the plank and moving through another shack, you continue across broken terrain, fallen trees, and elevated wooden surfaces until you reach the drop into the train compartment. Once inside the trainwreck, progression moves through multiple connected train cars. You pass through compartments containing seating areas, guitar cases, bars, and narrow beams that require careful movement between cars. Some sections place you outside on exposed beams between train halves before climbing back inside. As you advance, the route alternates between interior train spaces and short exterior crossings until you exit the wreckage. In the final area, you move through shallow water while avoiding monsters scanning the environment. The river masks most movement as you follow the story path to a ladder on the far side. Climb out and continue forward to cross the river, which ends the chapter and unlocks the trophy automatically.
