Blue Prince Trophy Guide

How to Unlock

**Reach Room 46 in Curse Mode.** Unlock Curse Mode by purchasing **The Curse of the Black Bridge** from the Bookshop for 40 coins, then requesting and reading it through the Library. This makes the **Cursed Coffers** available at the Mount Holly Gift Shop for 13 coins. Purchase the Cursed Coffers, draft the **Shrine** as your Outer Room, and break open the chest with a Sledgehammer. After activating the curse, Curse Mode becomes available as a new-game option. In Curse Mode, you begin each day with only **13 steps**. Drafting certain room colors also removes resources, making exploration considerably more difficult. Focus on permanent upgrades that provide additional steps and resources. The **Nursery**, **Sleep Mask**, and Laboratory experiments are especially valuable. Continue making progress across multiple days until you can reach Room 46.

Tip

The Laboratory experiment that **sets your steps to 40** can make Curse Mode substantially easier. Unlock the Gem Cavern for extra starting gems, and avoid unnecessary backtracking. Keep your completed Curse Mode save until you've transferred its trophy data into your main save.

How to Unlock

**Reach Room 46 in Dare Mode.** First, reach Room 46 in the main game to unlock the **Mount Holly Gift Shop**. Purchase the **Swim Bird Plushie for 110 coins** to make Dare Mode available when starting a new save. Dare Mode introduces one additional challenge on each of your first four days. You must receive all four Dares and obey their restrictions while working toward Room 46. These challenges can include limits on which rooms you draft, how often you enter rooms, or which resources you can carry. Breaking a Dare ends the current day and resets that day's progress. Once you've successfully followed the required Dares and reached Room 46, collect your trophy from the Entrance Hall the following morning.

Tip

Consider restarting if you receive a particularly restrictive combination of Dares. **Preserve your successful Dare Mode save** until you've imported its trophy data into your main save through Blackbridge Grotto.

How to Unlock

**Reach Room 46 on Day One of a new game.** Start a fresh save in Bequest Mode and reach Room 46 before ending your first in-game day. This is one of the hardest trophies because you cannot rely on permanent upgrades earned during previous days, and the mansion's randomized layout must provide the rooms and resources needed to complete your route. Your main objectives are to open an Antechamber door, reach both necessary sections of the Underground, activate the North Lever, and return to Room 46 with enough steps remaining. Prioritize the **Garage and Utility Closet** to access the West Gate, then use the Outer Room to find the **Tomb**. You'll also need a route into the Basement, such as the Foundation elevator, a powered Pump Room, or the Power Hammer.

Tip

The **Great Hall** and **Secret Garden** are useful options for opening the Antechamber. Save keys, gems, and steps for critical rooms rather than unnecessary exploration. Expect multiple attempts. Once successful, collect the trophy the following morning and **transfer its trophy data to your main save before deleting the new save**.

How to Unlock

**Earn an A on the Classroom Final Exam.** First, unlock the additional **Classroom** floorplan through the Drafting Studio. Then select the **Schoolhouse** as your Outer Room, which adds eight Classrooms to the drafting pool. You must draft all **nine Classrooms during a single day** to access the Final Exam in the ninth Classroom. Each Classroom costs one gem, so conserve resources and use room-reroll effects to improve your chances of finding all nine. The exam contains **46 questions** covering subjects taught throughout Mount Holly, including mathematics, history, geography, language, and art. Once the exam begins, you have **30 minutes of real time** to complete it. Use the following answer key to earn a perfect score: 1. C — Red 2. A — Oris 3. D — Orange 4. C — A Greenhouse in Corarica 5. A — Yellow 6. A — 0 7. D — 24 8. B — 11 9. B — 4 10. B — 1 11. B — 1 12. A — Carbon 13. B — Ne 14. C — Ll 15. C — Silver 16. C — Radon 17. B — 2 18.

D — 8 After passing, collect the trophy from the Entrance Hall the following morning.

Tip

The **Ornate Compass** lets you rotate compatible room floorplans and can make placing nine Classrooms considerably easier. Save Ivory Dice and other rerolls for this attempt. The exam timer begins when you start the test, not when you enter the ninth Classroom. Prepare your answers beforehand, since submitted answers cannot be changed.

How to Unlock

**Draft a room into every available slot of the Mount Holly floorplan during a single day.** The mansion has 45 main floorplan positions, but the Entrance Hall and Antechamber are fixed, leaving **43 slots to fill**. You do not need to reach Room 46 or enter the Antechamber to complete this challenge. Prioritize rooms with multiple exits, especially T-shaped rooms and four-door rooms. Keep pathways open across the mansion and avoid placing Dead End rooms where they could block access to unfinished sections. Once you fill the final available slot, the trophy appears in that room.

Tip

Use **Ivory Dice** and other room-reroll effects to avoid unwanted Dead Ends. Place single-exit rooms along the outer edges or in slots where you no longer need additional connections.

How to Unlock

**Solve the mystery of Room 8 on Rank 8.** First, draft the **Gallery** and solve its four picture puzzles. The correct answers are **PONDER, REALIZE, RUMINATE, and THINK**. Completing these puzzles rewards you with **Key 8**. Next, find a locked door leading into a room slot on Rank 8 and use Key 8 to access Room 8. Inside, you'll find eight animal figures and eight bins labeled with different sins. Place each animal in its corresponding bin to reveal the trophy. The correct placements are: - Penguin — Gluttony - Monkey — Hubris - Dog — Mundanity - Bear — Sloth - Lion — Envy - Swan — Lust - Rabbit — Avarice - Elephant — Wrath

Tip

Key 8 must be used on a door leading **into Rank 8**, not simply on any locked door. The animal puzzle allows you to reposition figures without penalty, so incorrect placements won't ruin your attempt.

How to Unlock

**Win the Drafting Strategy Sweepstakes** by drafting at least 20 Dead End rooms during a single day. The contest is described in *Drafting Strategy, Volume 5*, available through the Bookshop. Your objective is to exceed the existing record of 19 Dead Ends before ending the day. Plan your floorplan carefully. Build connecting pathways through the second and fourth columns, then place Dead End rooms in the first, third, and fifth columns. This allows you to accumulate Dead Ends without cutting off your remaining drafting opportunities. Certain rooms provide extra progress. The **Bunk Room counts as two Dead Ends**, while the Outer Room also counts toward the total. After successfully drafting 20 or more Dead Ends, end the day and visit the **Mail Room on a subsequent day** to collect your trophy and a 200-coin reward.

Tip

Save Ivory Dice and other room-reroll options for this challenge. The **Inkwell** constellation, unlocked through Observatory progress, is especially useful because it allows you to spend accumulated stars to reroll room choices.

How to Unlock

**Reach Room 46 within 60 minutes of real time on a new save.** Start a fresh game and reach Room 46 before the total elapsed time exceeds one hour. Unlike Day One Trophy, this challenge does not require completion during the first in-game day. You can use multiple days as long as the entire attempt stays within the time limit. The easiest approach is to combine this with **Day One Trophy**, since both require a fresh start and efficient progress toward Room 46. However, completing them together is optional. Move quickly through familiar rooms, skip unnecessary puzzles, and prioritize shortcuts to the Antechamber and Underground. Avoid spending too much time planning room choices.

Tip

**Hold L2 to sprint** and reduce travel time, particularly when navigating the Underground. If your Day One attempt takes longer than an hour, pursue this trophy separately. Remember to collect the trophy the following morning and preserve the save until its trophy data has been transferred.

How to Unlock

**Purchase every item in the Showroom and buy the trophy itself during a single day.** The Showroom is a special shop that displays four expensive items selected from a pool of six. You must purchase all four available items to reveal **Trophy of Wealth**, which costs an additional **100 coins**. Depending on the items offered, you'll need approximately **230–320 coins** to complete the purchase. This total must be available during the same day; buying items across separate visits does not count. One of the best strategies is to complete **Trophy of Drafting** first. Its reward includes 200 coins, which can be collected from the Mail Room on a later day. Combine that reward with your allowance, money-generating rooms, or savings preserved through the Freezer.

Tip

Try to draft the **Mail Room and Showroom on the same day** so you can immediately spend the 200-coin contest reward. Don't collect the reward on a day when the Showroom isn't available unless you have another way to preserve your money.
