Description: Exact English choices for both good endings, the 8-point threshold, all six outcomes, and how to reach the Lamb by the river. There are six endings in The Wolf Wears Red: three for the Hunter and three for the Lamb. Each route has a lethal ending, a low-affection Keep ending, and a high-affection Keep ending. For either good ending, collect all eight +1 choices and finish with “Keep him.” Spoilers ahead: ending names and every required choice appear below.
How to enter each route
To meet the Lamb, choose “go down the river” at the early fork. The developer confirmed that route entry in a reply. The exact text of the alternative Hunter-entry button was not verified in the accessible guide, so follow the opening branch that leads to the Hunter rather than guessing its label.
All six endings at a glance
“Kill him” overrides the affection total and produces that route’s The Prey ending. Only “Keep him” checks whether affection has reached eight.

The eight +1 answers for each good ending
The published walkthrough lists eight scoring answers per character. Because the threshold is eight, use all eight. These are the exact English labels to click. Hunter choice five is the easily missed silent “...”, not “That’s horrible.”

Why do I still get Bad End 3?
A player reported reaching The Hunter despite following the good-ending guide. The developer specifically asked whether they selected “...” at choice five. Missing even one point leaves you at seven, so “Keep him” produces Bad End 3. That player also reported difficulty in both browser and downloaded versions; a reproducible bug was not established.
How to enter each route — Hunter route / Lamb route
The developer also acknowledged renaming endings and then correcting the guide. The current labels are Good End 2: The Predator and Good End 5: The Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing; numbering is 1–3 for Hunter and 4–6 for Lamb. The Wolf is a human serial killer, not a literal animal; the developer explicitly confirmed the Little Red Riding Hood reversal. The Lamb deliberately seeks the Wolf, and his +1 answers reward hints that the protagonist is the killer rather than simply an innocent traveler. A “good” ending here is about who captures whom—not conventional sweetness. Source scope: developer walkthrough updated after the June 11, 2026 Lamb release, reviewed October 18, 2026. The downloadable build number and actual in-game branches were not independently tested. The game advertises six CGs without a verified per-image unlock map. A future secret ending was mentioned as a plan, not a seventh currently playable ending.
Conclusion
To finish the gallery of endings, visit both characters. For a good ending, take every listed +1 and choose “Keep him.” For the two other endings on each route, either choose “Kill him” or keep the character with fewer than eight points.
