Introduction:

Welcome to Contrast! Not only is this a quick and easy game, but the game is quite enjoyable also. You can follow guides or try to figure out the simple puzzles yourself. The game isn't hard without guides but it does make it even that much more easier.

 

Playthrough:

The game is pretty straight forward and you can gain all the achievements for this game in one playthrough, but there are quite a few missable achievements. Look out for the following achievements during each Act:

 

Act I

- Not That Kind Of Game!

- To The Heroes Among Us

- Now That's Thinking With Shadows

- My God, It's Full Of Stars!

- Punching Bag

- Streets Sweeper (collectables)

 

Act II

- The Family Life

- Just Like Harry

- No Backpack Bird Needed

- The Cyclops' Bottle

- GroundsKeeper (collectables)

 

Act III

- BookKeeper (collectables)

 

Ultimately you can follow Ace Attorney 86's walkthrough HERE to get all the achievements. Just keep in mind that if you miss the opportunities to get the missable achievements, you will either have to have several separate saves or start over from the beginning.

 

Conclusion:

This is a great game with a decent story, plus it's a quick and easy completion. Remember if you've missed any achievements you will have to go back through another playthrough.

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2463/1.jpg To The Heroes Among Us 20:gsicon:

Unlocked when the player finds the hidden Extra Life 2012 Logo.

 

You get this right at the beginning of the game. Before going to the Ghost Cabaret, go down the street until you get to a old record player in the street. Interact with it and shift in order to climb the shadows to the ledge above. Inside just hit the power switch in the back of the room for the achievement.

Unlocked when the player completes Act I.

 

Story-related and cannot be missed.

 

After you're done with the hotel section, this will complete Act I.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2463/3.jpg A New Dimension 20:gsicon:

Unlocked when the player shifts for the first time.

 

Story-related and cannot be missed.

 

You will be asked to do this at the beginning of the game and cannot progress through the game without shifting.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2463/5.jpg FIN 30:gsicon:

Unlocks when the player completes the game.

 

Story-related and cannot be missed.

 

Right after you finish the lighthouse and go backstage you'll get this for completing the game.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2463/6.jpg GroundsKeeper 30:gsicon:

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2463/9.jpg Illuminated 20:gsicon:

Unlocked after the player gets their second luminary.

 

This is basically progression related as there are quite a few in the game so this should come by playing through the game.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2463/10.jpg Just Like Harry 10:gsicon:

Unlocked when the player makes it over the crocodiles on their first attempt in the Shadow Theater.

 

During the first part of the puppet show in Act II you must jump on the crocodiles heads and get safely across on your first attempt. After they close their mouths you'll want to jump on each one's head until you're safely across. This is pretty simple, but if you do happen to mess up, dashboard out and start the game up and try again.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2463/12.jpg No Backpack Bird Needed 10:gsicon:

Unlocked when the player jumps into the treasure chest in the Pirate Ride.

 

After the puppet show during Act II you'll get to the pirate ship. Near the roller coaster is a ramp against the wall going up. Right in front of the ramp is the treasure chest you're looking for. Refer to the video if you're stuck:

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2463/13.jpg Not That Kind Of Game! 10:gsicon:

Unlocked when the player tries to enter the XXX door.

 

While in the streets before you get to the record player needed for the "Heroes Among Us" achievement, you'll see a neon sign that says "Dirty" and "24h". Interact with the door for this achievement.

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2463/14.jpg Now That's Thinking With Shadows 10:gsicon:

Unlocked when the player clears the Void Jump on their first attempt.

 

In order to get this achievement and "My God, It's Full Of Stars!" achievement in one playthrough, you will have to prepare yourself just a little. After you leave the bar in Act I you'll be tasked to go to the cinema. There is a huge gap that you must cross in order to do so. For this achievement simply fall into the gap. Quickly dashboard out, start the game again, and then make it across the gap without falling to unlock "My God, It's Full Of Stars!".

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2463/15.jpg My God, It's Full Of Stars! 10:gsicon:

Unlocked when the player falls into the void on the way to the Cinema.
