Each ending alters the puzzles and story elements, enriching your experience in locations like the Shimizu Residence and Treasure Hall. Not only does the final boss fight change based on your decisions, but it also unveils crucial aspects of Hinako’s journey and the Fog World’s mysteries in Ebisugaoka.
With varying endings, the replayability factor of Silent Hill f is significant. You might find satisfaction in one ending, yet feel compelled to explore another, which offers a fresh experience on each playthrough in that haunting rural locale.
All Silent Hill f Ending Conditions
Your journey begins with the default ending, Coming Home to Roost, which unlocks after your first playthrough of Silent Hill f. Although you can view the end conditions in the Main Menu, accessing them during gameplay requires exiting. Most endings necessitate a New Game+ (NG+), where your omamori and stats carry over, readying you for more formidable challenges and boss fights that change based on your decided path.
To unlock the ‘Lost in the Fog’ difficulty for combat and puzzles, ensure you maintain an active NG+ save file. Starting a New Game will wipe your progress.

How to Unlock All Silent Hill f Endings
Silent Hill f clearly displays the criteria needed for each ending, but the paths to complete these objectives can be complex. Some requirements span the entire game, while others can only be achieved through specific in-game puzzles. It’s advisable to aim for two to three endings in one playthrough while saving at the Main Hall Shrine before pivotal moments, just prior to boss fights. This savvy approach allows you to reload previous saves, minimizing repetitive playthroughs.
To prevent unintentional consumption of pills that affect endings, it’s wise to discard them upon first discovery. Avoid picking any up to maintain control during your experience.
Coming Home to Roost
This is the initial ending where players will first complete Silent Hill f. It’s a captivating but perplexing introduction to Hinako Shimizu’s narrative.
Fox’s Wedding
To achieve this ending, you need to find the Agura no Hotei-sama hidden in the Hermitage of Crimson Water, a secret spot on the upper level of the Main Hall. Here, you’ll need to solve the Crimson Water puzzle by ringing three bells per shishi-odoshi strike.
While obtaining the Sacred Sword isn’t necessary for this ending, retrieving it allows you to explore both weapon-related endings without starting a new game. Complete the Crimson Water puzzle, find the fifth Jizo statue, and cleanse the Sacred Sword at the designated pool of blood nearby.
The Fox Wets Its Tail
For this ending, you must obtain the Sacred Sword by locating all five Jizo statues and placing each corresponding offering. Research Photos are handy for tracking the nearest statues, so keep an eye on Hinako’s journal to avoid missing any offerings.
The essential difference here is that for this ending, the final offering is Hinako’s Father’s Knife instead of the Brooch, and the sword must remain unpurified while progressing towards the Shimizu Residence.
The Great Space Invasion!
To unlock this humorous ending, listen to the UFO radio broadcasts and locate all three Great Space Invasion Posters throughout Ebisugaoka. These posters appear only during specific segments while following Shu and Rinko to the School amidst the Fog World.
