Common questions
FAQI can't get into Mom's room. What am I missing?
The key is on the table right outside the garage when you first step out — Libby will say something when you pick it up. Walk up to Mom's door while holding it and interact with the door to unlock it. Once inside, either walk close to Mom or flip the light switch to trigger the first ending.
I triggered Ending 5 by accident. What happened?
Ending 5 fires when you grab the front-door key without removing the lamp sitting on top of it first. The lamp falls and wakes Mom up. Next time, interact with the lamp to move it before you touch the key.
Can I go back to Libby after completing ULTRAPRANK?
As of February 11th 2024, the laptop at spawn lets you play as Libby in Act 1. You can also choose who you play as after finishing all of Libby's Act 2 endings.
Where do I find enough money to buy the rocket launcher?
You need to collect cash from multiple spots: inside the house, near the raccoon outside, on the sidewalk in front of the store, in the parking lot, inside Cabbisto, and from the wallet under the register. Splitting the wallet with Gary still leaves you with enough to afford it.
How do I unlock April Fools mode?
You must complete ULTRAPRANK first. After that, open the laptop in the garage, go to extra modes, and switch April Fools mode on. It changes colors, sound effects, and dialogue throughout the game and adds Freddy Slimebear's quest and three exclusive endings.
