Ending Guide — The Incident at Galley House
Requirements for the finale, final quiz, and epilogue variants. Major spoilers ahead.
Finale Requirements
To trigger Act 4's closing sequence, confirm all eleven timeline slots with complete location, period, and witness fields. Mandatory curse observations (minimum five) must appear in the Curse tab — see curse mechanics.
Reya returns to the memory machine for a integrated tableau spanning EN → CH → WI. Inspect every updated hotspot before the notebook final quiz appears.
Final Quiz Structure
The quiz asks you to order three rule activations, name Victim 1's location code, and identify who spoke the true name in CH. Wrong answers increment an internal counter; after three misses, Tier 3 hints activate without token cost.
Completing the quiz rolls credits and unlocks post-game free roam.
Epilogue Variants
Confirming optional relationship entries in relationships changes Reya's published article tone and which family photos appear in the epilogue slideshow. Three variants exist: standard, thorough, and secret historian (requires all optional LI + HE scenes).
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I miss the secret epilogue on first run?
Yes. Post-credits free roam lets you finish optional scenes and replay the epilogue trigger from the memory machine menu.
Is there a post-credits scene?
A brief WI stinger teases Wintercote — not a sequel hook, but lore for dedicated fans.
Does death order matter in the quiz?
Yes. Victim 11 first through Victim 1 last must be correctly ordered in one quiz section.
