Sarab All Endings Overview
Sarab builds toward conclusions shaped by your accumulated choices, discoveries, and exploration depth. Before chasing a specific ending, understand what each route requires and how the game tracks your progress. The mirage motif runs through every outcome — which parts of the journey were real and which were illusion depends on how much truth you uncovered along the way.
| Ending | Difficulty | Exploration Required | Key Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Ending | Low | Minimal | Follow main story with balanced choices |
| Good Ending | Medium | Moderate | Help key characters, gather hidden lore |
| Bad Ending | Low | Low | Cold choices, skip optional content |
| Secret Ending | High | Very high | All ruins secrets plus final aligned choices |
Standard Ending
- Default route on a natural playthrough
- No optional secrets needed
- Balanced dialogue choices
- Most common first result
Good Ending
- Compassionate choices throughout
- Assist key characters
- Uncover hidden truths early
- Complete side conversations
Bad Ending
- Dark conclusion
- Self-serving decisions
- Neglect mysteries
- Dismissive late-game dialogue
Secret Ending
- True resolution of Sarab's story
- All major ruins secrets
- Hidden paths explored
- Aligned final-chapter choices
Decide which ending you want before Chapter 4. Decisions made during the underground passages determine which final sequences become available, and some branches cannot be reversed without an earlier save.
Step-by-Step Route Walkthrough
Follow this sequence to keep every ending accessible while you play. The walkthrough mirrors the main progression — Arrival, Desert Village, Ancient Ruins, Secrets Beneath the Sands, and the Final Chapter — while flagging where each ending path branches.
Chapter 1 — Arrival in Sarab
Explore the starting area, speak with the first characters, and collect initial clues. Examine the environment to trigger the first story sequence. Keep a save here — it is your cleanest replay anchor.
Chapter 2 — The Desert Village
Talk to all residents and complete their small tasks. These conversations reveal village history and unlock the ruins. Answer the Elder's riddle with "the road" to earn the extra clue tied to the Secret Ending.
Chapter 3 — The Ancient Ruins
Solve the symbol wall and mirror puzzles, and record every glyph you see — the Final Door Sequence reuses them in encounter order. Missing a symbol here blocks the Secret Ending later.
Chapter 4 — Secrets Beneath the Sands
Balance exploration with dialogue choices. The weighted plate puzzle opens the hidden door; skipping trap plates keeps your route intact. Key decisions in this chapter lock your available endings.
Final Chapter — The Truth of Sarab
Enter the four glyphs in the order you first found them: ruins entrance, mirror chamber, underground passage, Elder's chamber. Confront the final revelations — your accumulated choices determine the ending.
Late-chapter dialogue choices finalize your ending branch. Always create a manual save before entering the final area so you can reload and pursue a different ending without replaying the campaign.
Ending Requirements Compared
Each ending is scored by invisible flags: who you helped, what you found, and how you treated the mystery. Use this table to confirm your run is on track before the final chapter.
| Ending | Dialogue Style | Side Content | Collectibles | Final Chapter Action |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | Balanced | Optional | Not required | Default final choices |
| Good | Compassionate | All side conversations | Hidden lore items | Accept the truth |
| Bad | Cold, dismissive | Skipped | Ignored | Refuse or flee |
| Secret | Attentive | All optional interactions | All major secrets | Aligned final choices |
Play one thorough run aiming for the Secret Ending while saving before every major branch. Reload the final-chapter save and vary only the ending-critical choices to unlock the remaining endings efficiently.
Secret Ending Checklist
The Secret Ending is the most demanding route in Sarab. It requires consistent exploration, careful dialogue, and every major puzzle solved correctly. Tick off each item as you progress.
Secret Ending Requirements:
- Answer the Village Elder's riddle correctly
- Record all glyphs from the symbol wall puzzle
- Solve the mirror puzzle and open the inner chamber
- Trigger only the marked weighted plates underground
- Enter the correct four-glyph sequence at the Final Door
- Make aligned final-chapter dialogue choices
Notes and documents contain puzzle hints and safe combinations — skipping reading material is the most common reason players miss the Secret Ending. Revisit rooms after story events change them; some items appear only later.
Ending FAQs and Troubleshooting
Q: How many endings does Sarab have?
Sarab features four endings: the Standard Ending, the Good Ending, the Bad Ending, and a hidden Secret Ending. The Secret Ending is considered the most complete resolution of the story.
Q: Can I unlock every ending in one playthrough?
No. Each ending requires a different set of choices, but you can save before the final chapter and reload to change ending-critical decisions, avoiding a full replay of the Sarab all endings walkthrough.
Q: What is the most common mistake that locks the Bad Ending?
Refusing to help key characters, skipping major exploration, and choosing dismissive dialogue in the later chapters. Reading notes and completing optional conversations prevents this.
Q: What if I got the Standard Ending but wanted the Secret Ending?
Reload an earlier save rather than restarting completely. Verify you solved every major puzzle, answered the Elder's riddle, and recorded all glyphs, then replay the final chapter with aligned choices.
Replay early scenes after seeing an ending — many character lines carry new meaning with endgame knowledge, and the warnings you dismissed become obvious in hindsight.
