How To Get The True Ending In The Dark Pictures: Little Hope

This Halloween saw the release of the latest Dark Pictures anthology game, Little Hope. After a few days to try and get it yourself, here’s a guide on how to get the true ending in The Dark Pictures: Little Hope! This happens in three parts at the climax of the game.

Saving Mary

As the finale begins, you’ll find yourself in the house from the prologue. Andrew, and any of your company still alive, will enter the wreckage and search around. There’s a few interesting bits and pieces around, but your major decision is upstairs.

Before you get this ending, you must find the Holy Bible secret as Daniel in the Museum of Witchcraft.

Upstairs Andrew will step on a broken record and begin his final vision. You will be given a dialogue choice. To save Mary, pick ‘Enraged’ followed by ‘Insistent’. This will cause Abraham to whisper into Judge Wyman’s ear, whereupon the judge will accuse Carver. Mary hugs Andrew and tells him that he saved her.

Bearings

The demons are still out there. To survive the night in the house your company has to get their ‘bearings’ straight. This mechanic is a bit like disposition and is affected by decisions you make in game. Here are the choices you have to make for each:

Taylor

1) Disagree with John’s plan to head into town,

2) Agree to cross the footbridge to find the others,

3) Be sympathetic to Daniel’s experience in the bell tower,

4) Told Daniel to leave her while fighting for her life.

Daniel

1) Take the knife found in the museum,

2) Use the knife to stab the demon outside the church,

3) Demand that the priest let go of Mary,

4) Urge Andrew to leave him and let go of the metal bar.

Angela

1) Be intrigued by her lookalike,

2) Put her trust in Andrew to help her get off the shore,

3) Be glad that everyone made it off the shore safely,

4) Urge John to hurry when confronted by the demons outside the ruined house.

John

1) Refuse the drink from Vince in the Black Cat Bar,

2) Confront the girl at the covered bridge and lead the way across the broken bridge,

3) Be indignant with the others about sticking together,

4) Tell Andrew to leave him as the demon pounds on the door.

If you do all of these, everyone should survive through the night.

The Stranger

The Stranger, or Vince as he’s actually called, must have a positive disposition towards you. To get Vince on side you can:

1) Successfully complete the QTE after the scene at the covered bridge.

2) Successfully complete the mini-game after exiting the graveyard.

3) Don’t shoot the Demon behind him once you reach the church at the end of Pursued.

If you’ve done all this, the group will meet up with Vince on a nearby highway. He’ll then drive you to a diner, so you can make a phone call. This leads to the big reveal and true ending of this game! Now you’ve inevitably revised this guide on how to get the true ending in The Dark Pictures: Little Hope, time to get to exercising it!
