Blumhouse Games, Sleep Awake

Welcome to our achievement / trophy guide for Sleep Awake available on Xbox, PlayStation and PC. This guide will show you how to easily unlock the Knights Gambit achievement for placing a chess piece on the board.

Knights Gambit Achievement Guide

This achievement / trophy can be unlocked at only one location, which is in Chapter 8. If you miss the opportunity during your playthrough you will need to replay all the way to Chapter 8 again.

The achievement is inside the Somnological Institute. Shortly after you enter, you’ll use a big stone head to get past some turnstiles. Shortly after that you’ll answer a phone call then reach this room on your right. Start by grabbing your dad’s name plaque off the wall then enter the room:

Walk inside and grab the first letter on the desk. Underneath will be another large document underneath to interact with:

Directly behind the desk is a lamp, turn around and turn it on:

Then in the opposite corner of the room is this item. Go and interact with it:

Now head back to the desk and interact with the radios as follows:

Left radio: Turn the dial all the way to the right
Middle radio: Turn the dial twice to the third symbol
Right radio: Turn the dial to the last but one symbol on the right

Once you’ve done that, hit the lever on the right of the radios. A picture frame will open on the other side of the room. Go and get everything – including the chess piece – out of it:

Head back out the room and turn left. Head towards the door in front of you and use the key card from behind the picture:

Walk inside the door and down the stairs, in the room on the left is the chess board to put the piece on:

And with that, you will unlock the Knights Gambit achievement. Congratulations! There are plenty more easy achievements in the game, see below for links to more guides.
