How to unlock the Just Like Harry achievement in Contrast - Definitive Guide

Very simple achievement

This is in Act 2, during the part where you need to repair the Shadow Puppet Theater. You will be putting on a princess hat, and taking part in the Shadow Puppet Theater. Get through normally until you get to the part where you need to get onto a tree using a windmill. Shortly after that, you get to the crocodiles. Wait at the edge for the first one to shut its jaw, and then start jumping across. You have plenty of time to go across.

If you die, hit the guide button, and then quit out, and re-launch the game, as some users have told me that simply restarting from the last save did not always work for them, and their achievement remained locked.

Use the video below to help with visualization.

To get to the beginning of Act II, load "The Return of the Prodigal".

It also still works if you accidentally kill yourself in the bamboo before the crocodiles. It only means your first attempt on the crocodiles. I got too eager and jumped right into the first spiked bamboo pit.

FYI: 'Just Like Harry' refers to 'Pitfall Harry', from David Crane's Atari 2600 game, 'Pitfall!', 1982. Apart from Harry only skipped over 3 crocodiles, not 4, and he could stand at the back of their heads whilst they were snapping.

Hi everyone, regarding the “Look just like Harry” achievement on CONTRAST, do you have any advice how to unlock it loading chapters select, as I missed it during my initial first save and I have proceeded to do the exact thing required twice during Act II chapter load, and it simply doesn’t unlock.

I uninstalled, and can't give the Chapter Select name, but it's Act II/Repair The 2 Remaining Attractions/Fill The Role Of The Princess.
If you retry from there you'll get this achi eventually - nothing gets saved on the file, unlike the collectables - which are saved to file, so if you don't get the related achi you need to start a new game 😭.
Anyway, RobJ170 has this now.

In Act II, one of the 3 attractions you have to repair is the Puppet Show. This area is located to the right hand side near the back as you face away from the main tent. The game will force you to arrive here so don't get to worried searching for it right away.

Once you arrive, you will discover that the puppet show is actually a shadow show, and surprise, the princess is missing. So you shift into the show to fill the role.

You will face 3 separate areas as you go off to discover what happened to the prince, and this puzzle is on the first area. You will ace some basic jumping puzzles and then the game dialogue will warn you that you come to a deep waterway with crocodiles. As soon as the first one snaps its jaws shut, start jumping. There are 4 crocodiles to clear, and provided you get across all four to the other side without falling in the water, you will net this Trophy.

Note: All trophies can be attempted again through Chapter select. Just select "All the pretty horses" and head to the Puppet Show area to attempt this one again.

After completing the game I went back for this. But when I restarted with the chapter "All the pretty horses", the puppet show was already completed and I couldn't do the puzzle again. I restarted one chapter earlier "The Return of the Prodigal" and worked back to the circus to replay the puppet show.

This achievement is obtained during Act II, when Didi and Dawn are tasked with fixing the three attractions at the carnival.

When you reach the Shadow Theater attraction, you will need to shift onto the screen and partake in three short “plays” before the attraction is considered fixed. During the first part of this play, there will be a small platforming section where you are required to cross a river by jumping on the heads of four crocodiles. In order to do this, simply wait for the first crocodile to close it’s mouth, then jump onto it and quickly jump over the next three until you safely reach the other side of the river.

Do not hesitate or wait to jump from one crocodile to another because they open their mouths about every three to four seconds. If you time this right, you should not have any issues on your first attempt. If you happen to fail on your first attempt though, reload the checkpoint before falling into the water so that game does not recognize that you have failed.

During the first part of the puppet show in Act II you must jump on the crocodiles heads and get safely across on your first attempt. After they close their mouths you'll want to jump on each one's head until you're safely across. This is pretty simple, but if you do happen to mess up, dashboard out and start the game up and try again.

In the shadow theater, when you go to the ogre for the first time, there will be 4 crocodiles, which you need to jump over the first time and not die.

If you fall, load the latest save, it will be from the beginning of the shadow theater

This is the 2nd act: an attraction in which you have to go through the story as a princess.
