Choose Casual Difficulty

This trophy can be done on any difficulty mode, including Casual mode. For better efficiency, choose the easiest difficulty for less trouble, though confident players can still turn up the difficulty for a bigger challenge.

Always Skip Cutscenes

Time will be counted even in cutscenes, so remember to skip them all. Based on our testing, you save around 6 minutes if you skip all cinematics.

How to Skip Cutscenes

Press the "Option" Button, then choose "Skip". If you lose control of your character, press Options to see if you can skip the content.

Stop Time By Opening Options Or Map

Time will not pass if you open the map or options menu. Open the map if you feel lost or want to take a break.

Stop Time By Opening Options Or Map

▲ If you've beaten the game at least once, a timer will appear here

Keep Exploration & Shopping to A Minimum

Unless it's an item essential for the story or something needed for boss fights, keep exploration & shopping to a minimum. Focus only on beating the game and not much else.

Never Stop Moving

Never stop moving, even when attacking enemies. If a target requires you to stand still, it's best to bypass it. It's also important to have infinite ammo available so you don't need to scrounge around for ammo.

Infinite Ammo - Cost & How To Get

Complete A Full Story Run Before Challenging

Due to the challenge requiring several New Game Plus items, as well as the need to skip all cinematics, Dashing Dad should only be attempted when players completed the story mode normally at least once.
