Summing Up the Past #10: The 100% Games

Hey there!

Wow, I never thought that I’d ever make one of these posts again. Seem like I was wrong. As I’m going to play a few 100% games in the near future, I thought it might also be worth talking about them.

What are 100% games?

The only difference between 100% games and “normal” PlayStation games is, that 100% games don’t have a Platinum Trophy. And in general, they have much lesser points. Typically, in every 100% game you can get 285-315 points – with a few exceptions. This is very low, if you compare it to games which have a Platinum Trophy, as there you can usually get 1140-1230 points.

Just because they don’t have a Platinum Trophy it doesn’t necessarily mean that these games are cheaper, easier and / or shorter. In fact, there are a few 100% games available which require more skills and take a lot more time to complete than many Platinum games.

And just because they’re only worth a few points it doesn’t mean that it’s not worth going for them. There are also many 100% games available which can be completed in a few minutes. So, if you take 5 quick and easy 100%er, each worth 300 points, you’ll end up at 1500 points, which is more than you can achieve with a Platinum game. It’s always worth to also think about the points you can unlock with one game if you want to climb up the ladder in the leaderboards.

Which 100% games have I played in the past?

Now I’ll give you a short overview of the 100% games I’ve completed in the past. I’ll also say a few words to every game. 

1. Monopoly Plus – Very easy game which can be easily boosted by playing against yourself.
2. Monopoly Deal – Also very easy but you need a boosting partner as can be played online only.
3. Grow Home – This game was free for PS+ members once in 2015. The game is pretty easy but takes a few hours.
4. The Playroom – This game, as well as all of its add-ons, is free for everyone. But you need to consider that you need the PlaysStation Camera as well as a smart phone / tablet. The Ninja-Bots DLC has one trophy which is difficult if you’re playing alone but easy when playing multiplayer.
5. Gone Home – Another game which for once free for PS+ members. Short and easy.
6. Welcome Park – This game is pre-installed on every Vita. It’s a collection of mini-games in which the functions of the Vita will be explained. Not that hard at all.
7. Aabs Animals (PS3 Version) – One of the easiest games ever. It only needs 315 seconds to complete this game and all you need to do is to start the game and watch the trophies pop. It’s available as a bundle with the Vita version, which has its own stack.
8. Virtua Fighter 2 – A fighting game. Pretty easy if you follow a guide.
9. 電脳戦機バーチャロン – A gundam game which is only available in the Japanese store. Pretty easy if you follow a guide.
10. Virtua Striker – An easy football (soccer) game. Only available in the Japanese store.
11. Aabs Animals (Vita Version) – see 7
12. New Paint Park – A Vita game which is easy and for free on the PSN store.
13. Arcade Archives: Nova 2001 – Most of the games from the Arcade Archives series are pretty easy. In most cases, you just need to enter the options and set a high-score.
14. Arcade Archives: Ninja Kid – Enter the options, set a high-score. That’s it.
15. Arcade Archives: Ninja Kid 2 – Enter the options, set a high-score. That’s it.
16. Arcade Archives: Cosmo Police Galivan – Enter the options, set a high-score. That’s it.
17. Arcade Archives: Crazy Climber – Enter the options, set a high-score. That’s it.
18. Arcade Archives: Exerion – Enter the options, set a high-score. That’s it.
19. Arcade Archives: Double Dragon – Enter the options, set a high-score. That’s it.
20. Arcade Archives: Moon Cresta – Enter the options, set a high-score. That’s it.
21. Arcade Archives: Butasan – Enter the options, set a high-score. That’s it.
22. NBA 2K17: The Prelude – This game is for free on the PSN store. It acts as an introduction to NBA 2K17. Easy, short and fund.
23. ドリームクラブ ホストガール　オンステージ – Only available in the Japanese PSN store. You should get it as it is for free and all you need to do is to watch some girls dancing.
24. Actual Sunlight (EU Version) – Another game which was free for PS+ members. Very short but depressive story. There’s also an NA version but since it’s for the Vita, there’s no stacking possible.
25. Tekken Tag Tournament 2 Prologue – A Tekken game which comes for free with Tekken Tag Tournament HD.
26. The Walking Dead: Season 2 (PS4 Version) – A typical Telltale game. All you need to do is completing the game. It will take you 8 hours but the story is worth it. There are also versions for PS3 and Vita available which have its own stacks. It’s a shame that this game doesn’t have a Platinum Trophy!
27. Act It Out! A Game of Charades – Another game which can be easily boosted and completed by playing against yourself.
28. Hatoful Boyfriend: Holiday Star – A very weird and short Otome (Visual Novel). Can be completed by using a guide and skipping through the in around 1 hour.
29. Tales of Monkey Island – Chapter 1 Launch of the Creaming Narwhal - A point a click developed by Telltale. Every chapter will take 1-1.5 hours by using a guide. The bundle is on sale regularly and definitively worth a buy.
30. Tales of Monkey Island – Chapter 2: The Siege of Spinner Cay – see 29
31. Tales of Monkey Island – Chapter 3: Lair of the Leviathan – see 29
32. Tales of Monkey Island – Chapter 4: The Trial and Execution of Guybrush Threepwood – see 29
33. Tales of Monkey Island – Chapter 5: Rise of the Pirate God – see 29
34. Arcade Archives: Shusse Ozumo – Definitively the easiest game from this series.
35. Arcade Archives: The Legend Of Kage – One of the harder games of this series but not impossible.
36. Arcade Archives: Double Dragon II The Revenge – Easy but setting a high-score is a little bit annoying.
37. The Walking Dead: Season 2 (PS3 Version) – see 26
38. The Walking Dead: Season 2 (Vita Version) – see 26
39. ビビッドレッド・オペレーション あかねとマヨっとオペレーション！ - Only available in the Japanese PSN store but definitively worth getting. All you need to do is putting some sauces on some dished. Sound weird, right?
40. Deliriant – Very cheap and can be completed within a few minutes.
41. Arcade Archives: Ikki – Enter the options, set a high-score. That’s it.
42. Arcade Archives: City Connection – Enter the options, set a high-score. That’s it.
43. detuned – This game is hard to describe but very easy. Just follow a guide.
44. Leaving Lyndow – A short but very nice adventure.
45. NBA 2K18: The Prelude – Another free and very easy prelude but be warned, 2 trophies are missable and you can’t replay the prelude after the latest patch. In case you missed them, you need to by NBA 2K18 to replay the prelude.
46. It’s Spring Again (EU Version) – A very cheap and very easy game as it is designed for kids. Can be completed within a few minutes by setting auto-mode to ON. There’s also an NA version but since it’s for the Vita, there’s no stacking possible.
47. MLB 13 The Show: Home Run Derby Edition – A very easy game with only 4 trophies. All you need to do is to hit a few home runs. Only available in the NA store.

 After going through this list, I must admit that I’m really surprised that I’ve already completed 47 100%er. I thought this list will be much shorter.

In case you want to play some of the region specific game but don’t know how to set-up an account in a different region, check out this video by my buddy IBadDriverI. Everything is explained in detail. If you need Japanese PSN cards, you can buy them here. There you get digital codes, which will be send to you via e-mail within minutes.
