Eight conclusions wait at the bottom of Wonderland. This guide lists all of them with their Steam achievement names and live completion rates, then lays out the cycle plan for collecting the set. As with our other endings pages, spoilers stay structural: what exists and how it’s ordered, not what happens.

All 8 endings by completion rate

Ending Achievement Completed by Tier
Alice End “And a round of applause!” 39.1% First-cycle
Catastrophe End “Torn Apart” 35.3% Main branch
Good End “Happily Ever After” 29.2% Main branch
Death End “Ad lib” 29.0% Main branch
Exclusion End “Curiouser and curiouser!” 29.0% Main branch
Born End “Down the Rabbit’s Hole” 22.0% Deep
Fairy End “Tragedy Ever After” 18.6% Deep
Hell & Heartbroken End “Happiest Day of my Life” 18.1% Deepest

Read the achievement names as a set — applause, torn apart, ad lib, encore (“Encore!” is literally the New Game+ achievement). The game frames its own endings as performances of a play. That framing is not decoration; it’s the story’s central image, and it peaks with the Prince of Fear’s “hundred and fifty plays.”

The tiers, explained

First-cycle: Alice End (39.1%)

The main branch’s natural terminus and the ending the game steers a blind first playthrough toward. Take it without guilt — every deeper conclusion assumes you have this context.

The main branch cluster (29–35%)

Catastrophe, Good, Death, Exclusion — four endings within a few points of each other, which tells you they fork from decisions in the same late region of the story rather than from whole separate routes. Practical consequence: with a well-placed save near the final act, a single cycle’s endgame can often be replayed toward more than one of these. Catastrophe’s higher rate (35.3%) suggests many players hit it — willingly or not — on early cycles.

The deep tier (18–22%)

  • Born End (22%) — “Down the Rabbit’s Hole.” The origin thread. Expect prerequisites reaching back further into the story than the main cluster.
  • Fairy End (18.6%) — “Tragedy Ever After.” Associated with deep engagement with the Fairy Tale collection; its rate sits tellingly close to “Sweet dreams” (15.3%), the all-tales-shelved achievement.
  • Hell & Heartbroken End (18.1%) — the rarest tracked conclusion. Community consensus treats it as the deep-route finale: approach it last, after the story has shown you everything else.

A route plan for all 8

Cycle Target Notes
1 Alice End Blind run; keep questlines alive
2 Catastrophe + one of Good/Death/Exclusion Save-branch the final act
3 Remaining main-cluster endings Mop up the fork
4 Born End Origin-thread prerequisites
5+ Fairy End, then Hell & Heartbroken Bring your Fairy Tale collection with you

Rules of thumb: keep the failable questlines (Vernai, Griffy, Chikerost, Gerda/Kai) alive every cycle — the deep endings are unforgiving about a dead Wonderland; log everything in the Ending Checker; and treat the missables guide as pre-flight reading before each cycle’s final act.
