To earn 100% of the achievements in Crushed In Time in a single run, exhaust every dialogue option with Dr. Watson, inspect all room props and inventory items before leaving an area, and avoid skipping the end credits. Missing an environmental interaction or skipping conversational branches can lock you out of specific trophies, requiring a restarted playthrough.

221B Baker Street Investigation

Start the investigation in the parlor of 221B Baker Street by thoroughly checking the room before triggering story dialogue.

  1. Inspect the parlor props: Click on Holmes's violin case, the chemistry apparatus, the desk, and the letters pinned to the fireplace mantelpiece. Click these items multiple times to trigger Holmes's secondary observations.
  2. Exhaust dialogue with Watson: Speak to Dr. Watson and select every available conversational topic regarding the missing character. Do not skip text prompts, as progress requires hearing Watson's complete explanations.
  3. Exit the study: Once you have exhausted all dialogue and examined every prop, interact with the study door to transition to the London streets and unlock your first story progression achievement.

Inventory Inspection and Puzzle Routine

Crushed In Time requires you to examine items in your inventory before applying them to the environment. Adhere to this interaction sequence whenever you enter a new puzzle room:

  • Scan the scene: Move your cursor across the screen to locate every interactive hotspot before using tools.
  • Inspect collected items: Open the inventory pouch immediately after picking up any tool, key, or temporal fragment. Scrutinize and rotate the object to uncover hidden markings and trigger Holmes's deduction notes.
  • Attempt item combinations: If an environmental lock does not open, test combining items directly inside your inventory before clicking on room targets.
  • Consult Watson: If progress stalls, speak with Watson to update your case objectives and ensure you do not miss contextual reaction trophies.

Temporal Anomalies and Sequence Puzzles

As the case moves into broken game code, standard detective work gives way to temporal alignment puzzles.

  • Click visual distortions: Look for flickering signs, misplaced modern electronics, and mismatched textures. Interacting directly with these visual glitches unlocks specific investigation trophies.
  • Solve dials on the first attempt: When aligning gears, levers, or interface dials, avoid random trial and error. Pay attention to Holmes's auditory and textual cues, which confirm when a mechanism reaches its proper alignment. Setting these mechanisms correctly without triggering a puzzle reset earns efficiency accolades.
  • Trigger gag banter: Interact with developer notes, anachronistic objects, and Dr. Watson repeatedly until dialogue lines begin repeating. Poking Watson while he protests Holmes's bizarre theories is required for companion achievements.
