Daymare 1994: Sandcastle has 82 Collectible Locations spread throughout the game’s 17 chapters. This All-In-One Collectible Guide will show you the locations of all collectibles in the game. Collecting them all is necessary for the following trophies / achievements:
- 27 Documents – Librarian
- 6 Audio Logs – Radio Amateur
- 18 Scanners – Forensic Specialist
- 20 Alien Collectibles – Tin Foil Hat Enjoyer
- 11 Frost Grip Upgrades – Master of Ice
- 4 Weapon Attachments – Not required for any trophies, but beneficial as they make your weapons more powerful
All collectible types will count immediately upon collecting them and can be tracked under Extras > Challenges. These can be collected across multiple playthroughs, you do not need to collect all of one type in a single playthrough.
Documents and Audio Logs are traditional collectibles that can be picked up in the environment. Scanners are objects that can be scanned, and when nearby a scannable object a blue bar will appear in the top left of the HUD. Alien Collectibles are small alien toys that make a clicking sound when nearby them, which must be shot to be collected. Both Scanners and Alien Collectibles can be tracked on a per-chapter basis by pausing the game, as it will show how many of these you have found in that chapter in the top right corner. Frost Grip Upgrades can be acquired at Upgrade Stations that mostly appear along the main path. While these will count towards the trophy immediately, if you die/reload after getting one, make sure to get it again to benefit from the upgrade.
Some collectibles can appear behind locked doors that require you to hack to unlock. These have a limited number of attempts before being locked forever, so before attempting these hacks make sure to either make a manual save at the nearest save station, or revert to the latest auto save.
