Introduction
Welcome to the Trover Saves the Universe Trophy Guide! Trover Saves the Universe is the most flippant game ever released. The game shines when played in its blasphemous form, although you can play with censorship activated if you’re sensitive to bad language. The game makes a copious use of curse words and profanity, but it’s also very funny without swearwords. You play as Trover who is tasked by the Boss to save the universe from the claws of Glorkon, an Abstainer that stole your dogs and turned evil in his attempt to conquer the world. Trover is controlled by the Chairorpian, a metonym for the real player.
Trover Saves the Universe is a fast and easy platinum. The game consists of six different worlds interposed by a few cinematic-like levels. In each world you need to perform certain tasks in order to unlock some world-specific trophies. In addition, the game sports two collectible types: killable NPCs and Power Babies. Finally, there are some miscellaneous trophies, including the atrociously frustrating basketball ones.
Step 1: Play Through the Story While Killing As Many NPCs As Possible and Start Working on “You Actually Did It?!”
The first step is to play through the story without worrying too much about collectibles and world-specific trophies. Some trophies will come naturally as you go through the story, others want you to perform certain tasks. Although it’s pretty clear what you have to do thanks to the clear captions under each trophy, where to do them is not always obvious.
Secondly, you don’t want to spare any of the killable NPC. See if you can slaughter them whenever you come across one and if they emit red flashes when you hit them, that means that sometimes they can be finished off. Interestingly, the game doesn’t instigate violence, but it’s exactly what you have to do in order to get the platinum.
Thirdly, grab as many Power Babies as you can along the way. For both collectible types, kill and grab what you find and clean them up in Step 2 (level replay).
And finally, what you want to start working on in this step is You Actually Did it?!. This is the hardest and most annoying trophy in the game and to make it more tolerable it is highly advised to start working on it from the very beginning, or even better get it out of the way immediately after reaching the pod.
Step 2: Collectibles and NPCs Clean-Up and Replaying a Level
For this step, you need to replay Shleemy and kill the NPC that you didn’t kill when you first played the World, Micheal or Pop-Up. Refer to Worst Guest Ever for their locations and what to do to kill them. Additionally, you may still have some Power Babies left to grab. Replaying any of the levels will automatically earn you
Really? This Game’s Not That Good.

World: Shleemy
At the start of the World you’ll be welcomed by Pop Up, a flying yellow creature that describing him as annoying doesn’t do him justice. For this trophy, resist the temptation of leaving, just do nothing and don’t move. Simply listen to him until the trophy pops. Go make a sandwich or brew some coffee to avoid listening to his nerve-wrecking ramblings. It’s a good five minutes. |

Shortly after acquiring the first Chair Upgrade, you’ll wind up in a trunk with a series of puzzles. While the first two puzzles can be easily solved, the third one is purposefully unsolvable as pointed out by Trover and set to annoy the player. To unlock this trophy you have to press any of the buttons on the third puzzle fifty times. |

World: Shroomia
When you get to Doopy Dooper in Shroomia, she will ask you to move some boxes from her garage to the house on the right with the basketball hoop. If you do so, she says she will raise a platform for you to continue in exchange. Guess what? The game is messing with you again. Doopy’s a fraud. Instead, use the boxes to create yourself a platform. Once you’ve reached the new upper area, the trophy will unlock. Poor Doopy! |

Instant Clone Soup Collect the clone DNA in under 10 minutes. That’s it? That’s all they have to do? Man, we’re just giving these things away. |

World: Shroomia
Before going back to the pod in Shroomia, you have to collect some clone’s DNA using the glass bowl you’ll find in the area. Using your recently acquired ability, lift the bowl and move it by the tents. To collect the DNA, you need to move the bowl next to each set of tents and keep your enemies within the white circle created by the bowl. If enemies are killed within it, they will get sucked by the bowl. You need to do this for around 4-5 enemies per set of tents. Each set of tents consists of 2-3 tents, usually one next to the other. Ten minutes is a very generous time limit, so you should have no problem unlocking this trophy on the first go. Just get killed to reload the checkpoint or replay the level if you haven’t. |

When you talk to the Voodoo person, she will ask you to go to a Village and kill the villagers who seem to have been possessed by evil. When you get to the village, you will realise that nothing is wrong and the villagers seem pretty peaceful. For this trophy, be merciful and don’t kill anyone. Trover will invite you to be merciful and suggests you go back to the pod to return to the Voodoo person. Simply go back to your pod and hit the red button to return to the Voodoo person. You showed mercy and the trophy unlocks! |

World: Flesh World
When you enter the third area in Flesh World, you’ll notice Gail’s roommate, a big, yellow creature, blocking the entrance to an area. He’s starving and needs food. Listen closely to what he needs and feed it to him. At some point, some enemies will come attacking you and that’s when the timer will start. In 5 minutes, which is again a pretty generous time limit, you need to kill the enemies and simultaneously give him the food he requires. There are blue and yellow pills. Simply use your lift and grab abilities to give him what he needs. After he explodes, he will drop the Crystal Babies and the trophy is yours. Jeez, I hope not to have nightmares now. |

After feeding Gail’s roommate, enter the area he was blocking and head right. Trover will get stuck in a new area and will ask you, the Chairorpian, to save him. Lift and cast the rock at the green nipples to free him and then enter the area he was stuck in. Talk to Donny, the blue creature inside the prison. He has forgotten to take his heart medication and will die of a most painful death. Trophy unlocks. |

That went well… Glorkon mixed the world! Wait, they get a trophy for that? It’s just a cut scene. They didn’t do anything… God, this is so dumb. |
![]() |
World: Tech World
After collecting the Crystal Babies in Tech World, Glorkon will spawn telling you how you’ve fallen in his trap. After this cinematic ends, the trophy is yours. Congratulations, you’ve just unlocked the second-hardest trophy in the game! Nah, I’m just messing with you! |

No Winners In This Game! Beat Glorkon without getting killed by anyone… Including me. That’s right, I’ve been hunting you. |
![]() |
World: Glorkon’s Base
Glorkon’s fight spans over three different stages. Each stage takes place in a different area of the level. In order to get this trophy you need to kill Glorkon without getting killed by either him or his minions. You’re allowed to be hit and lose health hearts, but being killed voids the trophy. Having collected lots of Power Babies grants you more health, something that can turn out to be the decisive factor in this fight. In the first area, get rid of Glorkon’s minions first. Then, you can either lift and cast the weapons dropped by Glorkon’s minions at the electrical towers to the left and right of Glorkon or hit them yourself with your lightsaber. In the second area, get rid of Glorkon’s minions first. Then, use the orb falling from the pipe on the electrical panel, electrify each panel to disable the electrical field from the tower. Rinse and repeat for the other tower. Then, use the same strategy from the first area to hit both towers. In the third area, you won’t be able to pop your chair up. Start by hitting Glorkon. When he gets hit he becomes vulnerable. Seize the opportunity to zoom in on one of his eyes and use |

World: Afterlife
At the end of the Afterlife World, right before the pod, are all the Upgrade characters. One of them, Upgrade Tina, asks you if you have found Upgrade Shweppy somewhere in the game. The game is messing with you once again. Shweppy is right in front of you (green guy to the farthest right) and all you have to do to unlock this trophy is zoom in on him using |

For this trophy you don’t actually have to replay the whole game as you may think. Instead, what suffices is just replaying any level. Since you just need to replay a level and not the whole game, this trophy will unlock naturally when going for all Power Babies. | ||

You Actually Did It?! What the hell is the matter with you?! You actually made 100 baskets?! What are you a sociopath?! How long did this take you?! |
![]() |
Jokes aside for a moment, this is seriously by far the most annoying trophy in the game and the reason why the overall platinum difficulty is set to 4. The game would otherwise be a 2.5. In the telepod, to the left of the door, is a basketball. On the ground are paper balls that you can throw into the basket. Above the basket is a counter that takes note of how many baskets you’ve scored. To unlock this trophy, you need to score 100. While this may sound as relatively easy work, it is not the case at all. What makes this trophy so frustrating are the unintuitive throwing mechanics of the ball. In fact, consider spending at least 2 good hours on just this trophy. There’s one gimmick to make this a little bit less daunting: choosing to position the cursor on the paper ball’s angles before throwing seems to matter. This trophy is a matter of patience and practice. Once you’ve scored 100 baskets, the trophy pops. Once that happens, please do yourself a favour and take a well-deserved break. | ||

You Didn’t Have To Do That You killed a NPC. That’s gonna affect the whole game! That’s right, your actions have consequences this game! |

Worst Guest Ever You did it! You killed every killable NPC! You’re certified, psychopathic killer! Someone should probably call the police… |
![]() |
Throughout each World are killable NPCs you can interact with. To see if you can kill an NPC, unsheathe your lightsaber and see if you can hit them. If that’s possible, the NPC will emit red flashes (except for Pop-Up). Shleemy and Shroomia Worlds levels will have to be played twice to kill both NPCs. It should be noted that in the Afterlife World every character of the game is dead and there you can see who you’re missing. Here is a list of all killable NPCs and where to find them. Please remember that enemies seem to count as well. Enemies must be killed anyway in order to progress through the worlds.

The Ultimate Happy Ending Collect all Power Babies in the game. Then prepare to have your shnudler ringled! |
![]() |
Throughout some of the levels are Power Babies, the second collectible type in the game. Power Babies are tiny, green creatures either floating in mid-air or hidden inside those pink and blue flower-looking thingamajigs. To make this trophy pop, you have to dump your found Power Babies into the vortex inside the pod. Power Babies help Trover get more health. Check out the guide below to find out all of their locations. |
Frasier says
Even only reading the guide was one hell of a rollercoaster lol
FranciRoosters says
Thanks! ;)
David K. says
Thanks for the Guide! Are you planning to do one for Blood and Truth as well?
PowerPyx says
Nothing planned for that.
Goran Rakić says
Is it playable without VR?
FranciRoosters says
Yes
Slade says
How do you kill mr pop up??? If you hit michaels house three times off the hill do I do the same with mr pop up?!!
FranciRoosters says
You have to hit the boulder on top of a ledge.
Paul says
For the Worst Guest Ever trophy, do you only need to kill 1 eye on each level, or all eyes on the level?
FranciRoosters says
One eye on both levels is enough.
CaptainMacaroni says
Hey you can also dump the TV in the tub before he tells you where to go! 🙂
FranciRoosters says
Thanks! Guide updated.
Jason R says
Do we have to destroy every single eye in the game?
Jason R says
Scratch my last comment about the eye.
For Worst Guest Ever, Glorkon is not required. I just made it to George in Weird Earth and the trophy popped.
FranciRoosters says
Thanks! Guide updated.
Carl says
I don’t understand what eye is referring to. There is eyes all over flesh world as well as what looks like plants with a giant eye on the tip but those plants don’t react to thrown objects
FranciRoosters says
Only some eyes can be killed, not all of them. The ones that Trover can destroy with his lightsaber and the ones reacting to the throwable items.
Remy says
Is Worst Guest Ever doable through replaying levels or does it need to be done in a new game/one play through?
FranciRoosters says
It can only be obtained through replying Shleemy and Shroomia and make a different choice from your first run of the levels.
tshukino says
No Winners In This Game!
Anybody has a problem with that trophy? I’ve done it 3 times an on pop yet. Am I missing something?
Nicolai Hansen says
Daddy Gotta Eat didn’t pop for me and it was under five minutes. Tried it twice. Now I try to re-download the game. Is there anyone who had this bug?
Rhys says
I think the timer actually starts from when you start feeding him, with the very first yellow num num. The first time it took me a while to get around to the blue dispenser but I finished the fight part of that area pretty quickly and didn’t get the trophy. Second time I hauled ass and got through the entire exchange in five minutes and it popped.
MattyB says
“No Winners in this Game” and “Daddy Got To Eat”. I’ve had trouble with both these trophies. Followed instructions and didn’t pop. Tried multiple times on both trophies. Just need them for the plat.
brieep says
I got the platinum trophy, hitting the eyes has nothing to do with the worst guest trophy. Never hit one eye ever and got the trophy no problem.
FranciRoosters says
Thank you. Guide updated.
Chase says
Worst Guest Ever what is eye refering to
FranciRoosters says
Eye is not needed.
Thomas says
You don’t need to replay Shroomia; you can kill Doopy and then return to her house to get her power baby
Rhys says
Tips for the bball trophies:
One of the paper wads is significantly more ball-shaped than the others, this one is much easier to aim. It starts out and will occasionally respawn to the very lower left of the area, right in front of the green power baby station. Aiming the cursor at the top of the ball will pull it back toward you, the bottom shoots it at the wall, to the left will make it pull right, and right will pull it left. Try to set up the ball by getting it in front of the hoop, closer to your chair than the trash can. If it’s too close, it’ll bounce off the can or the rim before it makes the arch and falls in.
Tom says
Hi, Doopy is not at her house at all :s i dont get it. I killed her, and also not killed her. She is not at the house ? don’t know what to do. Its the only thing im missing …
ziggurcat says
For the Worst Guest trophy, do you need to replay the whole game from start to finish or can you just do level select?
ziggurcat says
turns out, you do not need to do a whole new playthrough. I did level select, and killed each of the listed NPCs. Trophy popped after I offed Doopy.
