Optional Graffiti Location 9 - Ice Cream Sign (Junkyard)

When Chloe starts hitting everything with the bat at the junkyard, go to the ice cream sign and knock it down first. Then, smash the red paint cans beside it in order to unlock the "Graffiti" prompt on the fallen ice cream sign. Chloe will smudge the paint across the picture, and players will receive the "Face Your Anger" Trophy/Achievement.

This location should be familiar if fans have played Episode 2 of Life is Strange prior to starting Before the Storm.

Optional Graffiti Location 10 - Car Seat (Dream Sequence)

Chloe will experience a dream sequence in William's car from Life is Strange near the end of Episode 1. Before interacting with anything else, move the poster of The Tempest in front of Chloe.

Finally, interact with the seat in front of Chloe to draw the last graffiti of the episode and unlock the "Lucid Writing" Trophy/Achievement.

Finding the ten Graffiti locations in every episode of Life is Strange: Before the Storm will lead to a very easy Platinum Trophy, or full Gamerscore, as they are the only optional unlockables in the game.
