The Infectious Madness of Doctor Dekker ~ Platinum Walkthrough + All Characters Green
The Infectious Madness of Doctor Dekker is a FMV (full motion video) murder mystery video game. You play as a psychiatrist who's trying to solve the murder of Doctor Dekker and you do this by questioning the patients who are also the suspects. The game comes with randomly generated questions and gives you full control to type and ask your very own questions. If the question is suitable, it can be answered and you will receive a response back from that patient. The game comes with multiple endings so the murder will always be random for everyone.
Trophy-wise, the Platinum is very easy to obtain if you're following a walkthrough that contains nearly all the possible questions that you can ask the patients in this game. It is true that the questions can randomly be generated and the murder will be different for everyone. This isn't that huge of a difference at all. You might notice 2-3 questions being different for you in a certain section of the walkthrough but this is normal. And you can easily pick the new questions that you have and go back to using the walkthrough. There is even a method of discovered what question you need to type with 's keyboard. All that is explained within the Walkthrough.
There are some missable trophies in the list but using the walkthrough will help you unlock them with ease. You only need to be concerned about playing over 8 hours and answering 1,000 questions, because those two trophies need to be done in one single playthrough. The 400 insanity trophy will unlock for you just by following along with the walkthrough. Different questions due to having a different murder or evidence won't influence your insanity points so there's nothing to worry about regarding the Youthulhu trophy unlocking.
Other than that, I highly recommend people who are using this Trophy Guide to use the Walkthrough. It doesn't contain any spoilers as it's just questions you select and type with the keyboard menu. It will still take you a few hours to get through all those questions but it's better to have the answers provided to you rather than spending time figuring it out by yourself.
Note on Glitchy Trophies: I know that seeing glitchy trophies might cause some people to worry but there's absolutely nothing to worry about, because the glitch will only happen if you don't make a backup save near the end of the game before accusing someone. When you accuse someone or if your game crashes during this ending cutscene, there's a chance the parser will break and make it so the glitched trophies won't unlock for you on that save file anymore (even if you picked the correct murder on the first try). The only way to ensure that you get another chance is to re-download the save you made beforehand and then select the murder again. Your trophies should unlock as intended and the walkthrough warns you make to a save near the end of the guide. The developer wasn't originally aware of this issue so it might be patched in the future. The current patch is 1.01 so if a new one is released, please inform me and I will update the guide to the current patch version.
Game Breaking Bug: The game can potentially crash on you at random. When this happens, there's a chance it might have corrupted your save file. If your save file gets corrupted, you will be forced to start a new playthrough. The only way to prevent this is by making frequent backups to either the PS+ Save File Cloud or a USB Drive. If you wish to read how this was discovered, see here: LINK

Step 1: Use the Walkthrough and complete the game by solving who murdered Doctor Dekker without using any hints
This is pretty much the only step you're doing for the whole game. Don't press the button at all for hints, because it will void the Hintless Wonder trophy. The only way to prevent this even if you pressed hints by mistake is to re-download a backup save you made via the PS+ Save File Cloud or a USB Flash Drive. It's highly recommended that you make backup saves while playing as the game can crash and corrupt your save file. If your save file gets corrupted, you will need to start a new playthrough all over again. Be sure to play over 8 hours for the Late Shift trophy to unlock and ask over 1,000+ questions for the Inquisitive trophy.
Near the end of the game, make a backup save so that you have a save file you can re-download just encase your trophies glitched at the end of the walkthrough. Pick the correct murder on the first guess and if you followed the walkthrough correctly without using the button for hints. You will unlock your remaining trophies as well as the Platinum Trophy at the main menu of the game.
Step 2: Cleanup
This is an optional step if you've missed any trophies. There is no chapter select so you will have to play through the entire game again until you get whatever you have missed.
