Looking for something new to play that’ll also bag you a relatively easy platinum trophy?

PlayStation users need look no further than AAA Dynamic Scenes and no, you do not need a PlayStation Plus subscription.

Admittedly, it doesn’t have the catchiest title, but you should never judge a book by its cover, as they say.

On the surface, it may not appear that there’s all that much to do in AAA Dynamic Scenes.

The game, as the title hints at, allows you to choose from a selection of “beautifully animated vistas” which can serve as screensavers, displaying the date and time on your console.

The “gameplay” element is the fact that you can turn every single screen into a jigsaw puzzle and it’s the completion of these jigsaw puzzles that’s predominantly tied to achieving trophies.

ICYMI: PlayStation fans can look forward to a new season of The Last of Us.

I must admit, I’m a fiend for a good jigsaw.

You can download AAA Dynamic Scenes for free from the PlayStation Store, the only caveat is that you will only unlock five screen options/puzzles.

After you’ve completed the five, you’ll have to cough up if you want to enjoy all that developer Somequest has to offer.

There are 35 additional vistas that come at a cost of £1.69 each, or you can pay £15.99 for the bulk lot.

That’s what Reddit user HGT3057 did, sharing that after purchasing the add-on, it took them 11 hours to achieve this particular platinum trophy.

“The trophies felt like a natural extension of the gameplay, pushing you to play all difficulties, play with rotation on, and to experience the three free scenes that come with the game,” they wrote.

“Overall, I'd say the platinum experience was alright, nothing crazy, but also nothing bad,” which is perhaps what’s to be expected with a title like this.

HGT3057 pointed out that it “may not be the most memorable game” but does boast “beautiful” and “high resolution” scenes.

While not everyone may be dedicated enough to chase that platinum, those looking for a light puzzler may enjoy what the free base game has to offer.
