If you are coming into this Guide first, please see the full Syrup and the Ultimate Sweet – Trophy Guide & Roadmap for a detailed guide on the game and the trophies.

 

Syrup and the Ultimate Sweet is an adorable, chibi-style Visual Novel created by NomnomNami and published by Ratalaika Games. You control the titular character, Syrup, a Candy Alchemist. A spunky green-haired scientist, she, along with her best friend and assistant Pastille, operates and owns a Candy Shop. Seen as intimidating, prickly and somewhat anti-social, Syrup spends the majority of her time alone in her lab, creating Candy. In this world, magic is relatively common but perhaps because she lacks any magical abilities, she's quite well known for being so anti-Magic that she has a rival, a Witch called Butterscotch. When you begin the game, you meet Gumdrop, a magical entity made of pure candy whose entire life purpose is to be friends with Syrup... and who keeps begging Syrup to eat her! Would you eat something that talks?

 

It's a very, very short game as the longest single playthrough, without skipping anything, takes no more than 15-20 minutes. If you choose to skip everything, you could easily get the Platinum in 15 minutes or 1hr if you don't skip so either way, it is an incredibly short Platinum that rewards you with quite a number of trophies!

 

 

 

IMPORTANT: THIS GAME DOES NOT HAVE AUTOSAVE, so please remember to save!! You can use Save by pressing to open the in-game menu at any time.

 

Like most VNs, the gameplay is simply made up of reading, choosing from multiple dialogue options, and experiencing several endings. There are 10 Endings to experience, 5 good ones and 5 bad ones. However, that is it; there are no collectibles, no battles, no hidden secrets to find and all trophies are only for the Endings. The game is still quite short and if you make the saves outlined in this Walkthrough, you'll easily nab this in no time without too much unnecessary backtracking.

 

The following is a walkthrough detailing the shortest method to get all endings and thus the platinum. It will take you through the order of all options you need to make and where all of the trophies are earned along the way. For clarity's sake, I am not including the option not chosen at that moment, however you will see which of the two the selected option is before each line in as either [OPT 1] or [OPT 2]. All but one set of choices will only have 2 Options. The only other one has 3 Options, though the 3rd is never chosen in these Endings.

 

 

Settings:

 

You can access it from the Title Menu => Options or at any time in-game by pressing Options. If you want to read the dialogue, I suggest turning on Skip After Choices and Skip Transitions, but keep Skip Unseen Text off.

 

For the fastest method, skipping everything, set your preferences as shown here:

 

 

 

Controls:

 

: Save & Menu

: Auto

: Mini-Menu

: History (Backlog)

: Enter/Next

and : Skip/Forward

and : Back/Rewind
