Endings
ASPIS endings explained: the single final choice, when it appears, how Let Go and World on Fire branch, and what each ending means for Andrey.
Introduction
ASPIS resolves on a single decision, not on a running morality meter. Official material describes one choice and two endings, and the achievement list names the branches as Let Go and World on Fire. The choice arrives late, after the Institute, the tunnels and the worlds beyond have established what Andrey wants and what the machine has cost him. This section explains how the branch works, what each achievement corresponds to, and why there is no confirmed third outcome. It keeps story specifics below a clear spoiler boundary and avoids inventing dialogue or terms that the developer has not published.
Ending Branches and Achievements
| Branch | Choice | Outcome | Achievement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Let Go | Refuse the deal | Andrey returns to reality | Let Go |
| World on Fire | Accept the deal | Andrey stays with his family | World on Fire |
| The final decision | One late-game choice | Routes the story into one branch | Either ending achievement |

The Final Decision
The single point that routes both endings
Core Mechanics
The ending system is deliberately simple. There is no visible reputation score, no companion approval meter and no announced set of hidden requirements. At the close of the story the Devil offers a deal, and the player chooses whether to accept it. Refusing routes the story toward reality and the Let Go achievement; accepting routes it toward staying with Andrey's family and the World on Fire achievement. Official material confirms the single decision and the two outcomes but does not publish the exact dialogue, the terms of the deal or a third branch. Because both achievements depend on the same choice, earning the pair requires replaying the closing section rather than making two different choices across one continuous run.
Advantages
The advantage of a two-branch ending is clarity. You do not need to track a hidden morality system or wonder whether an early dialogue option quietly disqualified you. The game tells you when the decision matters, the achievement text confirms what each branch represents, and the emotional weight comes from the story rather than from a checklist. That also makes spoiler control practical: a reader can learn that there are two outcomes and what they broadly mean without being told every line of the final scene. For completionists, the structure is honest about requiring a second pass through the closing section.
Challenges
The downside is that the branches are not equally documented. The achievement text gives a clear direction for each ending, but official material does not publish ending titles beyond those achievement names, a full script, or a canonical answer about which outcome is better. Community discussion often labels one ending true or best, but that is interpretation rather than developer statement. The choice is also irreversible without replaying the finale, and there is no announced chapter select, so a player who wants both achievements should plan for a second visit rather than expecting a quick toggle. A reader who wants to experience the finale unspoiled should stop after the branch table, because the analysis sections discuss the Devil, the family outcome and the thematic reading in detail.

Quick Tips
Make a manual note of the point of no return before the final choice. Official material does not describe chapter select or a save menu, so the practical way to see both branches is to know which autosave you can return to. If you cannot reload the finale, plan a second playthrough rather than assuming you can undo the choice.
Do not read the achievement names as moral labels. Let Go and World on Fire describe the direction of the deal, not a good-versus-evil judgement, and the developer has not called either branch canon. The more useful question is what each outcome means for Andrey, which depends on the documents and conversations you found earlier.
If you are avoiding spoilers, read only the branch table and stop before the analysis sections. The table tells you that a single choice exists, which is enough to plan a save, while the detailed discussions of the Devil and the family outcome reveal late-story context that is better experienced in game first.
