Get all three endings by tracking Rowan’s dialogue, tea, the hidden-door QTE and the forest decision.
ROADKILL tracks two hidden scores, Affection and Obsession. Four Affection points trigger Phantom Resonance; four Obsession points trigger Somatic Echo. If neither reaches four, the outcome is Heavy Freedom. The developer says Obsession wins a tie if both qualify.

Routes for collecting all three endings
For Phantom Resonance, greet him warmly, go together, pass the QTE, ask about Rowan, confront his treatment and choose the kiss. These five published bonuses yield five Affection points.
For Somatic Echo, emphasize helplessness, remain silent, take tea, fail the QTE, ask a neutral night question, apologize during the argument and pull away. The documented choices total six Obsession points.
For Heavy Freedom, describe the breakdown, decline tea, pass the QTE, ask about town, give a neutral reply during the argument and withdraw in the forest. Neither score reaches four.
The 2026 remaster and scoring caveats
The 2026 remaster redraws sprites, retouches backgrounds and the interface, and introduces new QTEs. The download is named ROADKILL-1.0. The separately linked creator guide shows no date or build identifier. Although its tie-breaking rule is explicit, the listed point opportunities do not establish a reproducible route where both scores reach four.

Conclusion
Build Affection for Phantom Resonance, Obsession for Somatic Echo, or keep both low for Heavy Freedom. Tea and a failed door QTE are particularly useful Obsession switches.
