5 games that are super easy to platinum

1) Spider-Man 2

In Spider-Man 2, you will spend most of your time finishing the main story, which will get you almost half of the game's trophies. This alone will take you around 10 hours.

After finishing the main story, you can move on to the post-game clean-up phase. This is where you can finish all the miscellaneous activities on the map, like completing side quests, getting 100% on all districts, unlocking all suits, and collecting all Spider bots.

You can finish an entire playthrough on the lowest difficulty since there are no difficulty-related trophies. In less than 30 hours, the platinum trophy will be yours.

2) Life is Strange

All the entries in the Life is Strange franchise are easy to platinum, but the first title is arguably the simplest. The game is divided into five episodes, with collectibles scattered throughout each one. These items are in the form of photographs you have to take. The game is essentially a story-driven walking simulator where your choices affect the story.

Your choices can alter the narrative, but thankfully, there are no trophies related to those branches in the game. Each episode requires 10 photographs. All trophies are tied to getting these photographs, meaning you will have your platinum trophy after clicking all the images in each episode.

PowerWash Simulator houses various levels where you are tasked with cleaning a vehicle or location until you have reached 100% status for that stage. The game plays in first-person mode where you will be given a washer and nozzles of different sizes to clean the levels. There are even level-related trophies you can finish in your campaign run or free-play mode.

You can unlock new attachments for your washer while progressing through the game, which also offers trophies. After you are done with the campaign mode, you will be required to take care of time-attack challenges and unlock all equipment-related trophies. All this will take you around 50 hours, after which you will earn the coveted trophy.

After your first playthrough, you should have every trophy except for the speedrun variant, which requires you to finish Stray in under two hours. Wrapping up this final task will unlock the coveted platinum trophy.

My Name is Mayo is one of the most "platinumed" games of all time. The only objective here is to keep mashing the X button in order to tap the jar of mayo on the screen. This will complete all the missions in the game. The game requires you to press the X button on the jar, with really nothing else to do.

Each milestone is tied to several taps, which means you just have to mash the X button on your controller for an hour. This exercise will get you all the accolades, along with the platinum trophy in under an hour.
