Optional Graffiti

Throughout Chloe Price's journey in Arcadia Bay, you'll encounter numerous opportunities to leave your mark with some rebellious graffiti. These aren't just for aesthetic pleasure; each piece of optional graffiti contributes to your overall game completion and can unlock achievements/trophies. This section will guide you through every single graffiti location across all episodes, ensuring you don't miss a single tag.

General Graffiti Tips:

  • Look for Interactable Objects: Graffiti spots are almost always on specific objects or surfaces that highlight when you get close.
  • Context is Key: Chloe often needs a specific item or a particular interaction to trigger the graffiti prompt. Pay attention to your surroundings and what Chloe is carrying or has recently interacted with.
  • Backtalk Opportunities: Some graffiti opportunities are tied to successful Backtalk challenges. If you fail a Backtalk, you might miss the chance to spray paint.
  • Check Your Journal: Chloe's journal keeps track of completed graffiti. If you're unsure if you've found them all in a given area, consult your journal.
