Choices that affect endings

Officially planned

The developer also lists 4 future ending concepts — Pierrot, Harlequin, Protagonist, and All Together — but these are planned content, not currently finished playable endings.

Pierrot Ending

Officially planned

A Pierrot ending is listed by the developer for future content. Pierrot choices in the current game already change scenes and interactions, but those branches should not be treated as the completed Pierrot ending.

Not currently obtainable

Pierrot Guide →

Harlequin Ending

Officially planned

A Harlequin ending is officially listed as planned future content. Current Harlequin choices can change Day 2 interactions and scenes, but a finished Harlequin ending route is not available yet.

Not currently obtainable

Harlequin Guide →

Protagonist Ending

Officially planned

The developer lists a separate Protagonist ending among future planned content. No finished current unlock route should be invented before that ending is actually in the game.

Not currently obtainable

All Together Ending

Officially planned

The developer describes this planned ending as the protagonist together with both Pierrot and Harlequin. It is not currently available as a finished playable ending.

Not currently obtainable

How Many Endings Are There?

There are two different numbers players may see discussed, and they mean different things.

Current public game

The developer currently lists:

  • 1 Bad Ending

Planned future content

The developer also lists:

  • Pierrot Ending
  • Harlequin Ending
  • Protagonist Ending
  • All Together Ending

These future concepts are not currently obtainable endings, so this guide keeps current playable endings separate from planned endings.

Ending questions

Why did I get the Missing ending?

The key decision happens very early in Day 1. Choosing Do nothing during the opening confrontation starts the Missing ending path.

Missing Ending Guide →

Is there a True Ending?

No named “True Ending” is currently confirmed by the developer’s public game page. The listed future ending concepts are Pierrot, Harlequin, Protagonist, and All Together, and none of them is currently labeled a finished True Ending. If another guide gives a current True Ending route, treat it cautiously until that route is supported by the playable game or by the developer.

Is there a Pierrot ending?

Yes — as officially planned future content. It is not currently available as a finished playable ending. Pierrot-related choices in the current game change scenes and dialogue, but they should not automatically be labeled the completed Pierrot Ending.

Pierrot Guide →

Is there a Harlequin ending?

Yes — as officially planned future content. A finished Harlequin Ending route is not available yet. Current Harlequin branches change interactions and scenes without becoming a completed named ending.

Harlequin Guide →

Is there a Protagonist ending?

It is officially planned. The developer lists a Protagonist ending under future content, but no finished current unlock route is available yet, and this guide does not guess what that ending will contain.

Is there an All Together ending?

It is officially planned. The developer describes it as an ending with the protagonist together with both Pierrot and Harlequin. It is not currently obtainable.

Is there a Jester ending?

No Jester ending is currently listed among the planned endings. Jester is connected to optional and hidden content in the current game, and that does not make the Jester sequence a confirmed ending.

Why Do Some Guides List More Endings?

Some sites treat scene branches, unfinished route outcomes, fan theories, or future planned endings as if they were already complete playable endings. This guide separates those categories instead of combining them into one ending count.

Playable now means content you can currently reach. Officially planned means future endings listed by the developer. Unconfirmed means claims that the current public game and the official information do not support yet.

What Does Not Count as an Ending?

Hidden Scene 1

Hidden content, not a named ending.

Hidden Scene 2

Hidden content, not a named ending.

Black Tent Third Visit

Secret conversation, not an ending.

Broken Mirror Secret

Repeat interaction, not an ending.

Character Scene Variations

Different Pierrot, Harlequin, Doctor, or other scenes do not automatically create separate endings.

What About “Open Endings”?

Players sometimes use the phrase open ending for unresolved stopping points or current route conclusions. This guide does not automatically count every stopping point as a separate named ending.

A result is listed here as an ending only when the current public game and the official information describe it that way.

Is The Freak Circus Finished?

No.

The game is still in development, and the story continues past the current public content with another in-game day that is still being worked on. Day 3 is separate from the current ending system.
