Mina the Hollower’s secret ending requirements are absolutely brutal
Mina the Hollower features a secret ending with particularly stringent requirements, as discovered by YouTuber ChickenSoup. The game, which offers numerous optional quests and bosses that players can complete in any order or skip entirely, follows this design philosophy even for its hidden ending. To unlock the secret conclusion, players must carefully manage their actions regarding a character named Lionel—specifically, they must avoid giving him any reason to condemn Mina near the game’s end. This discovery has resulted in an extensive list of restrictions on player behavior, with ChickenSoup documenting in detail which actions must be avoided to achieve this alternate ending. The requirements appear demanding enough to present a significant challenge even for dedicated players. Mina the Hollower’s approach to a secret ending aligns with the game’s broader design that emphasizes player choice and multiple paths through the experience, though reaching this particular conclusion demands precision and knowledge of specific criteria rather than organic discovery through normal gameplay.
