Lies of P endings

Lies of P has a total of three endings: Rise of P, Free from the Puppet String, and Real Boy. Reaching all three endings unlocks the following trophies and achievements:

• Rise of P
• Free from the puppet string (No longer a puppet)
• Real boy: They all lived happily ever after (Real boy: and they lived happily ever after)

As the game progresses, you will be able to make decisions, choosing between truth and lies. This affects how the game ends. On the first playthrough, it is best to lie, and on the second, tell the truth. You can get two endings in one playthrough by choosing either a permanent lie or the truth, but it will take a second playthrough to get the opposite ending (full lie or full truth).

Below we have collected all the key moments in the game when you need to make decisions. They are placed in chronological order. In addition, I indicated what answers you need to give to lie or tell the truth. By focusing on completely lying on your first playthrough of the game, you will receive all 11 special weapons.
