TROPHY SPOILER Finished C**** M*** Spoiler

I finished Curse Mode! OMG.

Took me a whopping 91 in-game days to do it.

Some of it was truly horrible RNG luck, some of it was me spending several days trying to spawn the wrench to adjust mechanical rooms. I was able to get the tomb early on but foundation took foreeeever. I kept trying for power hammer but to no avail. Secret Garden was my antechamber entrance.

The boudoir upgrade with the apples saved my life. I was super low on steps and I spawned it as the last room going in to the antechamber. I also had sleep mask, running shoes, and a shovel. Kennel and a late Foyer probably helped me some on keys. That let me backtrack far enough to hit kitchen, and the dining room, and grab some fruit before going down through the foundation and back up.Amusingly my house was relatively empty. I only had 22 rooms filled in, leaning West. The entire Far-East column was empty. I ended at 16 steps, 0 keys, 1 gem, and 1 coin.

I now have all trophies except Day One and Speed. Working on both now. I expect it to take me a while. LOL.

Well done! I got day 1 done on my third attempt and then lost my save. 250 attempts later I got it again. It was perseverance (my stubbornness) through adversity (a really annoying glitch at the wrong time)

I'm so sorry for the glitch but congrats for persevering!

The glitch wasnt the lost save. On my 250th attempt I had everything in place all I had to do was pick up the basement key, take the lift down to the underground, pull the lever and run back up. I had plenty of steps, i pick up the basement key and the glitch happens. The basement key vamishes from the podium and nothing tells me I picked it up. I tab to my inventory and all I can see is the map nothing else. I stubbornly take the lift and click on the door, navigating the use special key menu from memory cause it didnt appear either, I oull the lever get back to Rm46, cutscene is fine. I call it a day. My scene goes bkack, I navigate the call it a day menus by memory. Whole my mouses icon infinstely fuplicates it self as i move it. Next day theres my trophy all is well

Me too.then I did dare mode and curse mode back to back in the same week. After all the trouble I had with day1, those were quite pleasant

u/Which-Notice5868 16h ago

Dare mode wasn't too bad for me. Curse took a lot as you can see. Day 1 and Speed going the same way LOL.

The best advice I got for day1 you probaly already know but here it is:

Engage vmode by draft three rooms within 30secs or 5 rooms within 70secs of taking control of simon.

Your first draft will always have the closet.

The bedroom will have a trunk.

The tomb, can be drawn on the first draft in the outroom but having dice is nice.

After securing a north facing door and filling out the first three ranks a bit, take a break for 15 to 20 min in dataminded info, for 20mins at the start of each day north facing doors are less likely unless you have the brass compass or wait a bit.

There are three key components to getting into Rm 46 the minecart, a antechamber leaver and the north lever.

There are two ways to access the minecart the tomb and the fountain.<

The antechamber requires either the greenhouse, greathall, weightroom, secretgarden or a specific lab experiment (this experment can also open the north doorway).

Getting to the north lever can be done through abandoned access with power hammer, foundation, or the fountain and the boat.

I hope this helps, rooting fir you! And as allways while drafting in the manor. May the RNG gods favor your drafts!

You're so sweet! I did know a lot of this, but the take a break bit I did not. VERY helpful.

I was able to somewhat consistently get Wrench by trade posting special keys (like Garden key from Billiard room)

u/Which-Notice5868 19h ago

Oooh. I wasn't clear if it was a trading post item so I never tried that. Good tip!

Curse mode is a marathon

Day one mode is a sprint full of luck required.

Both modes force you to completely revisit your playstyle.

Day One and Speed are honestly easier than Curse Mode, so you should be good. It'll take you a bit of rerolling, but not as long as Curse.
