Paranormasight: The Mermaid's Curse tells its story in a non-linear fashion using a branching story graph that lets you jump between characters, time frames and perspectives as you piece together the whole picture. Instead of a single path to a single conclusion, the game has multiple endings – some of which you may encounter before others, regardless of their numbering.
Navigating each requires careful attention to the choices you make and the chapters you complete along the way. This guide will walk you through how to unlock all of the game's endings.
How to reach the ending #1
This is the first ending you'll encounter simply play normally. As you play the game, you'll unlock tons of chapters that send you back and forth in time to see the details of the story.
This ending is located at the end of the upper path of Sato's story. After this end you will visited by the Narrator who will indicate the presence of other, alternative endings.
