Description: Get Prisoner, The Best Outcome, Freedom, Prisoner of Survival, Disqualified, Prisoner of Fate and Trust, plus three hidden scenes.

Seven endings depend on study time, the tablet, Xor’s trust, your exam result and pod entry. Confessing love guarantees Xor fails his exam. Avoid the confession and hugging him if you need him to pass.

Ending routes and hidden events — spoilers

Route Conditions and steps Result Source Build Spoilers
Prisoner Reject the offer to leave, avoid over five hours of preparation and never betray the truce; this prevents Xor’s day-two panic Prisoner A 1.2.3* ⚠
The Best Outcome Study more than eight hours, then surrender the tablet to Xor on day two The Best Outcome A 1.2.3* ⚠
Freedom Reduce Xor’s trust to paranoid; trigger a tablet demand but refuse to surrender it. Avoid comfort and love confessions, then fail your exam Freedom A 1.2.3* ⚠
Prisoner of Survival Study minimally on day one and spend time with Xor; refuse the exit offer and do not lock your own tablet when he suggests it. Study later and pass Prisoner of Survival A 1.2.3* ⚠
Disqualified In cooperation, ask Xor to enter the pod first. In competition, speak to him before the exam. Once he enters, deliberately miss your own deadline Disqualified A 1.2.3* ⚠
Prisoner of Fate Accept the exit offer or study over eight hours before day-two lunch to compete. Keep the tablet, build trust, confess love and pass Prisoner of Fate A 1.2.3* ⚠
Trust Follow the same competitive, high-trust confession route as Prisoner of Fate but fail your own exam Trust A 1.2.3* ⚠
Corner of Shame Ignore Xor for about an hour after he invites you to play cards Corner of Shame B 1.2.3* ⚠
Romance After Date On day three, date Xor on the noncompetitive route Romance After Date C 1.2.3* ⚠
Xor Begs On day three, listen to Xor’s confession on the competitive route Xor Begs C 1.2.3* ⚠

Five hours and eight hours serve different goals

Prisoner requires avoiding over five hours of preparation before the day-two panic check. The Best Outcome instead requires more than eight hours of study followed by giving Xor the tablet on day two. To enter competition for Prisoner of Fate, accept the first-night offer to leave or study more than eight hours before lunch on day two. More study does not automatically mean a better ending.

Love is an exam mechanic

The developer confirms that telling Xor you love him guarantees he fails. Prisoner of Fate and Trust share competition, high trust and confession; your own passing or failing separates them. Freedom needs trust at paranoid, so avoid comforting him. The kindest dialogue option can derail a route.

The Disqualified pod trap

Simply waiting out the clock can prompt Xor to intervene. On the cooperative route, ask him to enter first; on the competitor route, talk to him before the exam so he enters. Then stay outside until your own deadline passes. The developer confirmed the sequence in a player reply.

Three optional scenes

Ignoring Xor for about an hour after his card-game invitation triggers Corner of Shame. Version 1.1 added a romance scene after a noncompetitive day-three date and Xor Begs after hearing his confession on the competitive route. These scenes are distinct from the seven endings.

Sources and verification

Scope: the conditions come from the July developer guide, not a personal replay of every branch in build 1.2.3. Exact internal trust thresholds are unpublished. Reported plays are not measured searches.

Conclusion

Conclusion: Choose cooperation or competition, track the five/eight-hour thresholds, then control the tablet, trust, exam and pod timing.
