How to unlock the Animal Logic achievement in Telling Lies - Definitive Guide

If you miss this one during the playthrough, you can do it later. Just put into search the following:

sxwfrtniul.['po]\[/,l;

Click search and the achievement will pop up

P.S. both of the ‘l’ characters in this are lowercase L’s, rather than uppercase i’s (to me it was quite obvious, but I’ll keep it here just in case anyone struggles)

Don't miss the semi colon from the end when copying and pasting or you'll feel stupid

Just to clarify, both of the ‘l’ characters in this are lowercase L’s, rather than uppercase i’s! (Although I didn’t try uppercase i’s when I typed it in - they might work too.)

I tried entering this using the remote control feature of the Xbox app on Android. When I copy/pasted the text in the solution and hit Search, the achievement didn't pop. I noticed that the single quote character (in the part toward the end that includes ['po]) looked funny and I realized it had actually come through as a backwards quote character (the ` character on the same key as the tilde ~). Once I manually edited that character to be a proper single quote and resubmitted the search, the achievement popped,

I cannot get this achievement to pop. It didn’t pop at the 3am part with the cat & and cant get it to work by typing it in. I type it exactly and I get no matches.

@TernarySauce798, I had the same problem. Make sure you type it into the search correctly (dont mix up ' with ` and make sure to use lowercase "L"). After you searched for it, press the "search" button a few times again and it should unlock. I played only on Xbox.

Once you pass 3am a cat will jump on your keyboard and type a string of gibberish into the video search bar. Simply 'search' what the cat types in (obviously this will not return any matches) and the achievement will pop.

Its worth pointing out that if you go with this method make sure you are not editing Bookmarks because the game seems to freeze at 3AM when the cat jumps on the keyboard (on Xbox Series S with keyboard plugged in). So make sure you are doing something in the Search bar or clicking on videos around that time. Took me 4 dashboard restarts to get past this freeze.

At 3 am the main character's cat will jump on the keyboard and type in the database search bar. after the cutscene is over and you gain control, click the search button and search what the cat typed.

This will automatically unlock at 3 am, but if you don't want to wait you can type sxwfrtniul.['po]\[/,l; into the search box and search it. The achievement will then unlock.

As you unlock Nocturnal animals trophy_gold.png  at 3AM, the hourly cutscene will see a cat jump on the player and type a string of gibberish into the RETINA searchbox. To unlock this trophy, click the search button. This is the only missable trophy in the game, so don't forget or you'll need to skip through a bunch of videos to get the chance to earn it again.

After, according to the plot, a cat runs across the keyboard and types nonsense in the search bar, just press search and a trophy will appear.

There is a small inaccuracy in the previous hint - there is not enough backslash between the square brackets. Apparently the message editor “ate” him.

If you missed the trophy, you can write sxwfrtniul.['po][/,l; and press "search" (l - these are small letters L and don't forget to put a semicolon at the end)
If the achievement does not appear, then try changing the language to English
