How to get the Uncharted 4 Trials and Tribulations trophy

Left, right, left, wait... what? Nope, lost it.

The Uncharted series has some of the best writing, best characters, and trophies. A trophy where you just stand still in the market? It has it! A trophy where you play Marco Polo? It has that as well. Here is how to get the slightly more brain-intensive Trials and Tribulations trophy.

This will be available to unlock in Chapter 9: Those Who Prove Worthy.

Not long after starting the ninth chapter, you will enter a puzzle room. You will see a large wheel with a switch on the left that you will need to activate. Activating the switch will get you a water bucket. Fill it with a pail of water and return to the wheel with the bucket filled.

This is where you need to pay attention, as gaining the trophy depends on what you do next. To unlock the Trials and Tribulations trophy, you have to complete the puzzle in under 10 rotations of the wheel. Any more than that, and the trophy goes bye-bye.

Unfortunately, the puzzle is randomized every time the game is started, so we are sadly unable to tell you the exact formation.

You will need the crosses to be in the placement you see in the image above; with the White Cross on the left, the Big Cross in the middle, and the Black Cross on the right.

The good news is that if you know it has taken you more than 10 attempts, you can restart from the checkpoint and try again. Just don't progress through the door, and you will have as many chances at it as you need.
