Confess My Love is a short yet emotionally impactful indie game with 20 different endings to discover. Each ending varies based on your choices, timing, and interactions with characters. If you’re aiming to unlock all endings, this guide will walk you through each one step by step.

Timed Endings Unlocks

In Confess My Love, a hidden timer starts when you begin a new run. Your goal is to talk to your crush during specific timeframes. Each time you talk to them determines which of the 12 time-based endings you’ll unlock. Here are the timeframes and the corresponding endings:

Within 5 Seconds

  • Ending 12 – Achievement: “What were you about to say?”

5 Seconds – 1 Minute

  • Ending 1 – Achievement: “Have we ever met before?”

1 – 2 Minutes

  • Ending 2 (Confess) – Achievement: “Just leave me alone, please.”
  • Ending 3 (Hesitate) – Achievement: “You don’t have to speak it out.”

2 – 3 Minutes

  • Ending 4 (Confess) – Achievement: “Do you have an interest in zodiac?”
  • Ending 5 (Hesitate) – Achievement: “We can still be friends.”

3 – 4 Minutes

  • Ending 6 (Hesitate) – Achievement: “But we don’t match.”
  • Ending 7 (Confess) – Achievement: “I have a boyfriend already.”

4 – 5 Minutes

  • Ending 8 (Hesitate) – Achievement: “We shall focus on school works.”
  • Ending 9 (Confess) – Achievement: “To be honest, I’m a lesbian.”

After 5 Minutes – Game Ends (Depends on Julie’s presence)

  • Ending 10 – Achievement: “Julie, let’s go.” (If Julie is in class)
  • Ending 11 – Achievement: “…Anything happened?” (If Julie is not in class)

Tip: To get Julie to leave the class, give her the cake from your desk before the timer runs out.

Conditional Endings

These endings are triggered by meeting certain conditions, such as interacting with objects or characters in the game. Here’s how you can unlock them:

Leave the Classroom

  • Ending 13 – Achievement: “…So you leaved.”

Send a Gift (Give your crush the cake from your desk to trigger one of these endings.)

  • Ending 14 – Achievement: “If you understand why I refused.”
  • Ending 15 – Achievement: “That’s how you see me huh?”

Nightmare Room Endings

This is one of the trickier sequences. To unlock the nightmare room and the associated endings, you need to complete a set of steps in a specific order. However, note that the room’s appearance depends on random chance (with a 1/3 chance of spawning each time). Here’s the sequence to follow:

  1. Get the Cake from your desk.
  2. Collect the Cup from Julie.
  3. Collect all 4 jigsaw puzzle pieces (look for shiny icons):
    • Desk (2 desks to the right of crush)
    • Book (under the note)
    • Desk (behind crush)
  4. Fill the Cup and water the plant (remember the code you get from the plant).
  5. Unlock the Monitor’s journal and get the key.
  6. Open the locked cabinet on the bookshelf and grab the knife.
  7. Ask Julie to leave.
  8. Close the curtains.
  9. Confess your love to your crush within 3 minutes.

Important: The nightmare room doesn’t appear every time you do the sequence. You may need to repeat the process multiple times.

After the Nightmare Room:

  • Ending 16 (Run from your crush) – Achievement: “Come back! COME BACK!!”
  • Ending 17 (Crush catches you) – Achievement: “You love me, don’t you?”

If you’ve completed everything up to collecting the knife, you can unlock one of two endings based on whether Julie is in the room when you collect it:

  • Ending 18 (Collect knife with Julie in the room) – Achievement: “What’s wrong with you?”
  • Ending 19 (Collect knife after Julie leaves) – Achievement: “Now you remember who hurt me?”

The True Ending

Once you’ve completed all 19 other endings, you can unlock the True Ending. Here’s how:

  1. Interact with the bulletin board showing your progress.
  2. Talk to Julie twice.
  • Ending 20 – Achievement: “Thank you for your cake, Mr. Who.

    Funnily enough, despite the Nightmare room being a 1/3 chances to spawn, every time I did the sequence, the next playthrough was always the Nightmare room. Some shitty luck lol

  2. Cryofreeze says:

    Just one thing. Once you unlocked the Nightmare room, to get into it again, you juste have to leave the normal room by passing the door. The new run would be normal or nightmare with a chance of 1/3, like you said. It’s wayyyy faster than doing the whole steps again.

    Wait, so the true ending reveals that the protagonist has been dead all along, and that the him we saw throughout the story was actually his spirit in human form? The classroom was another world that he created due to his regrets on not confessing to his crush? I wonder, what happened in the True Ending?

    🙁 That ending was really sad. I never expected that would happen. Still though I really wanted the ending to be happy.
