Endings
How to unlock every ending in Infinitevania.
Introduction
Infinitevania features Multiple Endings that reward players who engage deeply with the narrative and explore optional NPC dialogue. The endings range from the Normal ending (defeat the Core of Infinitevania with default choices) to secret endings that require specific dialogue sequences, ability combinations, and post-game actions. Each ending unlocks a distinct Steam achievement and a unique post-credits cutscene that adds new lore. Some endings can only be triggered in New Game+, so completionists should plan for at least two full playthroughs. This section catalogs every ending, its unlock conditions, the dialogue choices that matter, and which abilities or NPCs are required.

Core Mechanics
Multiple Endings reward players who engage deeply with the narrative and explore optional NPC dialogue. Each ending requires a specific combination of: (1) Old Man dialogue choices, (2) specific abilities absorbed (the Crypt Hermit requires Wall Climb, the Forest Witch requires Air Dash), (3) specific boss defeat orders (the 'I Knew It' achievement requires defeating Eltram before the Forest Guardian), and (4) post-game actions in Castle Hub. Some endings can only be triggered after New Game+, while others require you to play through the Normal ending first. The game tracks your ending count and which ending variations you've unlocked, but does not show progress for hidden endings. The wiki's endings tracker documents every requirement and provides decision trees for each route.
Advantages
The Multiple Endings system is one of Infinitevania's strongest narrative features. Each ending feels meaningfully different from the others, with unique cutscenes, music, and post-credits content that adds genuine lore rather than recycled footage. The Old Man's evolving dialogue across playthroughs makes the character feel like a real companion rather than a tutorial NPC, and the Forest Witch and Crypt Hermit each contribute to specific ending paths in ways that feel organic. The decision trees are complex enough to encourage replay without feeling arbitrary — every choice has clear narrative consequences even if you don't know which ending it leads to. The achievement system rewards completionists fairly.
Challenges
The most missable ending ('I Knew It') requires a very specific dialogue choice with the Old Man that most players won't think to investigate, and missing it means a full New Game+ replay to unlock. The game provides no in-game summary of which ending-affecting choices you've made, so players who don't consult the wiki have no way to know they're on a particular ending path until they reach the credits. Some ending requirements are gated behind very late-game content (Crypt boss defeat + specific Old Man dialogue in New Game+), which means players who finish the Normal ending and stop playing will miss at least two endings. The 'secret ending' is particularly obscure.

Quick Tips
Save before every Old Man dialogue sequence in Castle Hub — his dialogue choices gate at least three different endings, and the game does not let you revisit past conversations. The most important choice is the one you make immediately after defeating the Crypt Boss, which determines whether you unlock the Normal ending or are routed to a secret ending path. If you miss the secret ending dialogue, you'll need to start New Game+ and make different choices from the start, so always save before major story moments.
Talk to the Crypt Hermit after defeating the Crypt Boss to unlock his quest, which gates one of the secret endings. The Crypt Hermit only spawns if you have the Wall Climb ability AND have read at least 3 lore tablets in the Crypt biome, so make sure to explore the Crypt thoroughly before defeating the boss. His quest is one of the more complex in the game and requires you to find three hidden items scattered across the Crypt's underground tunnels. Missing any item locks you out of his ending path permanently.
Start New Game+ immediately after the Normal ending if you want to see every ending. Each New Game+ playthrough takes about 60% of the time of the first run because you keep your abilities and most upgrades, and you can fast-travel to previously visited biomes. The 'I Knew It' achievement and the secret ending both require New Game+ exclusive dialogue that only appears if you start NG+ with the right initial choices. Don't waste time exploring post-game content in your first run if your goal is 100% ending completion.
