Platinum #215-217: Semispheres (AS Vita, EU Vita, AS PS4)

Hey there!

Another 3 Platinum Trophies which I could unlock within short time. Playing games back to back really pays off.

What is the game all about?

Semispheres is a puzzle game. The screen is split into 2 halves (left and right) showing the same level. In each side, you have a sphere and it’s your task to move this sphere to the exit. For this, you control the left sphere (orange) with the left stick and the right sphere (blue) with the right stick. This sounds simple but it very difficult. The 2 halves have the same layout but different obstacles / enemies and sometimes the orange and blue sphere switch sides. I had a lot of brainfucks while playing this game.

What about trophies?

There are 13 chapters and completing each of them will reward you with a trophy. For the last trophy, you must complete all 13 chapter in one sitting within 35:00 minutes. This is by far the hardest trophy as there is no way to stop or reset the timer. On my first stack, it took me 6 trial runs to learn all the puzzles and its solutions. On my 7^thrun I could beat the game in around 33 minutes. I immediately played the other 2 versions and could complete each of them on my first run.

I highly recommend to watch below video by IBadDriverI a few times before starting the game. Furthermore, you should do 2-3 trial runs to see which puzzles give you troubles and watch the solutions again. As soon as you’ve beaten the game once, immediately play the other versions – if you plan to play more than 1 version.

Where can I get this game?

Semispheres is available in every store but you need to be careful. Not every version has a Platinum Trophy as a few of them are only 100% games. The versions with a Platinum Trophy are AS Vita, EU Vita, NA/JP Vita and AS PS4.

If you don’t know how to set up an account in a different region, check out this video by my buddy IBadDriverI.

If you’re living outside the Asian region, there’s still a way to get the Asian Vita version. For this you must buy the limited collector’s edition which is exclusively available at play-asia.com. There you can also buy digital PSN cards which will be send to you via e-mail within minutes, if needed.

There’s no need to buy the limited physical Asian PS4 version as you can download it from the HK store.

This means that you can unlock up to 3 Platinum Trophies with 1 game (EU or NA/JP Vita, AS Vita and AS PS4).

As a trophy hunter, should I get this game?

Yes, but only if you plan to play more than 1 version. The first Platinum Trophy make take up to 6 hours but every other version can then be completed in around 30 minutes.
