Surviving each day
StepThe village gives you warnings before things go wrong. Most bad endings come from ignoring something that was easy to notice and fix.
- Watch for misplaced objects things appearing where they should not be are clues worth following up
- Listen at night strange sounds and shifts in how villagers act point toward what is about to happen
- Inspect every faucet running water left on through the night floods the entire village by morning
- Keep moving during an earthquake staying put when the ground shakes traps you under the ruins
Dangers that end your run

Common questions
FAQHow do I reach the KKN Completed Ending?
Finish every day's tasks from start to finish without triggering any of the four bad endings. Stay away from the well, shut off any running faucet before you sleep, move when an earthquake hits, and do not blindly follow every shaman instruction.
Can I collect all five endings in one playthrough?
No — each run only ever produces a single ending. You need to replay the game and deliberately change your choices each time to unlock a different outcome.
Do I need headphones to play?
Headphones are not required, but the game recommends them.
