Berry Bury Berry Endings Guide: How to Unlock All 4 Conclusions
The only thing cuter than a sentient berry is watching it descend into eldritch horror, and this game delivers that in spades if you know where to look.
I went into Berry Bury Berry expecting a cozy idle game about fruit. I left with a profound distrust of gnomes and a repetitive strain injury from grinding stars. The game hides its true nature behind a simple loop, but if you poke around the edges (and murder the right NPCs), things get weird fast. There are four distinct endings, ranging from "standard victory" to "why did I do this?" Here is how you trigger every single one of them.
Ending 1: The Standard Conclusion
This is the participation trophy of endings. You honestly have to try harder to miss this than you do to get it.
Just Play the Game
There is no secret trick here. You don't need to hunt for hidden pixels or decipher Morse code. Just play through the game normally. Feed the hole, progress through the stages, and eventually, the credits will roll. It’s the default state of the world, and while it’s satisfying enough, it’s clearly not the main event.
Ending 2: The Gnome Massacre
This is where the game shows its true colors. To get this ending, you have to be a monster, which is my favorite way to play any game.
Consuming the Gnomes
The requirement here is simple but brutal: you need the achievement for consuming all Gnomes. That means every single lawn ornament you see needs to go into the hole. If you reset the game, the counter resets, so you have to get them all in a single run. Once you have successfully committed gnome genocide, a new Gnome will spawn in the main room with the computer.
The Disk
This surviving Gnome isn't there for revenge; he’s there to give you a disk. Pick it up and insert it into the computer. A scene will play out that I won't spoil, but let’s just say it justifies the massacre. Once the scene ends, the second ending is yours.
Ending 3: The Dark Star Hunt
This one requires a bit more legwork and feels like a classic "collect-a-thon" secret.
Finding the 7 Dark Stars
You need to collect all 7 Dark Stars scattered across the game. You can't trigger the ending until every single one is in your inventory, so check your corners. Once you have them, head back to the main room with the computer.
The Trash Icon
Sit at the PC and click the Trash Icon on the desktop. It seems counter-intuitive, but doing this spawns a "familiar character" against the wall on the left side of the room. Like the Gnome ending, this character is holding a disk. Take it, shove it into the computer, and watch the chaos unfold.
Ending 4: The 10,000 Star Grind
I hope you like idle games, because this ending demands a level of grinding that borders on disrespectful.
The 10k Requirement
You need to save up 10,000 stars. The best way to do this is to feed the larger props from the outer areas of the map into the hole. If you run out of props, you might have to reset, which is a pain. Once you have the cash, you will get a prompt that an upgrade is available for a Berry Buddy.
The Dark Berry Buddy
Buy the upgrade. This spawns a Dark Berry Buddy. This little guy is the key. Wait for him to be born, and eventually, he will spit out a Dark Fruit. Pick up the Dark Fruit and throw it into the hole.
