How many endings?
So... I have 2 endings. I can load my last choice and pick the OTHER ending I guess.
But I saw there are like 11 endings...

.

SPOILERS BELOW



After the final vestige is drawn, I get effectively a choice to slay the princess for good or not. I have also found the "good" ending where you stay in the cabin forever.

Aside of Slay / Align / neither... I am puzzled what (and how many) other options are there.

Could you direct me without too many spoilers?
Does it matter what I reply to the narrator at points?

Well technically there are only two 'final' endings. No matter if you slay Mould or take with you, the end is same nothingness. There is variations where inner voices approve or dissaprove with you, but it does not changes anything. There is version where you break final barier, but developers haven't figured way to show us what is outside and simply described it as 'undescribable something'...

Or you can let her restart it all from the beggining, which is not even an ending if you ask me.

...

Now, those endings are reached by bringing 5 any princesses to Mould and making her whole. Depending on princesses types she will visually and mentally change, which does not really affects anything.

Before reaching last fifth loop and seeing those rather dissapointing two true endings there are several minor endings you can reach. As you already mentioned, there is forever cabin, which we can call Crow Ending, since you fulfill what Narrator wants. If you try fulfilling your own desires it always ends in world destruction and Mould taking you as vessel instead of princess.

There is 'wall break ending" where you get a glimpse of whole situation and finally understand how messed up this whole situation is, but it only usefull and interesing if you reached it before true ones; and game will just abort you during climax anyway.

...

There is 'desktop crash ending' where you refuse to cooperate with Mould and gather any more vessels. Nothing interesting about it tho, just little fun trick, which somewhat copies Doki Doki novell.

There is also the ending of leaving together through the door and not wanting to be gods - just to be together and be free and away from the cabin. That might be my favorite so far.

And the ending where they leave together to be as they "were meant be" and where they "belong" together, shaping many different worlds throughout eternity together as a pair. That one felt also sweet. Both of these seemed like very good endings to me, even if they were bad ones from the narrator's perspective.


I haven't found all the endings yet, but to me it seems like there is no "true ending". Just different endings, that are all right, depending on the player. And I like that.

You get different endings depending on whether or not you take the knife, what you do with it and what you say to her. If you find out the true nature of the world, there is a reveal at the end where you can decide to help her, destroy her or to convince her otherwise.
There might be other options but those are the ones I've found for that "fight" so far.

But there are other endings along the way, that are just as "true" - except for the "save the world" ending maybe lol. I loved that child's drawing.

your conversations with the narrator don't really matter as far as I can tell - how you interact with the princess is what causes the different outcomes.

With endings I mean the final ones, after you bring the five vestiges, or... something that breaks the loop or something.

Everybody else has done the spoiler-y part, so here's how to get them:
1) Accept the Mound's offer, OR
2) Resist her until the Voice of the Hero comes back.
2A) Don't take the knife in the cabin, just go down and talk.
2B) Take the knife, go down and kill the Princess.
2C) Take the knife, go down, but then agree to her solution.
3) Once you hit Chapter 2, just keep refusing to go to the cabin until it resets. All five times.

I found one Reset the game and turn back and keep on doing it until you get to the cabin with walls when you go inside the cabin you see stairs.

also if on the very first loop in the beginning u dont go to the cabin until chapter 2, at the end of the game endings 2A 2B & 2C are slighty diffrent
