Cat in the Box - Ways to Die and Endings 

The first few deaths are even more sadistic if you know the context. Spoiler: That stinking, dark room at the start of the video? The stench is coming from a mound _of her corpses._ An eldritch abomination is forcing her to relive her experience in the house over and over and over again until she finally performs the ritual it wants her to do. Every time you fail, your body gets thrown on that pile. The 3rd death is her realizing that there's dozens of her own, mutilated bodies rotting in the corner... and she's about to join them.

Creepy Spoiler: At the 22:51 mark, if you look closely, you can see that she's surrounded by half a dozen bodies from all the other times she "achieved" this ending.

LONG COMMENT WARNING BUT I'M JUST INSANE ABOUT THIS GAME (AFFECTIONATELY) 🥺 This game's concept is genuinely out of a nightmare and the embodiment of complete and just... absolute hopelessness. The endless suffering and torture within the loops, and NO ending is good for the protagonist, Girl. She will either die at the hands of her other selves or the monster, completely alone, go insane and become desperate enough to go to the extremes to get out (or rot in a cell), roam endlessly through the mansion or, apparently, "get out" but with severe mental consequences. She was just... doomed the moment she set foot into the mansion, all because she wanted to prove her worth to others and become recognized by filming a haunted house video. Her naivety led her to become a victim of the mansion and it will keep happening over and over unless she performs the ritual the mansion wants her to do. Every time she fails to do so, she will absolutely die no matter what. I've always seen the "Divine" ending as her escaping the mansion, and eventually making a break in the loop, but it takes a toll on her mental health completely and her perception of the world has been shattered to bits, with hallucinations coming back to haunt her (or it could also be that, the moment she managed to escape, she let out the monster free to roam the world, and it'll only be a matter of time until it kills her). Worst case scenario (and also likely), she didn't escape the mansion, and is quite possibly still trapped in its illusions. Girl will never go anywhere, and until the day she draws her last breath, she will stay there. Beyond the cage she was trapped in and managed to get out of, lies endless cages that will keep her confined for all eternity. In none of these endings lies "true freedom" or "hope": just a foolish, broken and emotionally scarred Girl that will never see the light of day or the hope of a new tomorrow. Gosh, this is such a long comment but all and all, thank you for compiling all of these easter eggs and endings! This game is great and I enjoy revisiting it from time to time.

God I loved playing Cat in the Box. The endings threw me for a loop but it was all fun.

I like to call the Roam Ending "Common Sense Ending" because deciding to just leave the haunted house and NOT risk going here for absolutely no real reason is probably the smartest move i have seen a horror movie/game character do, and seeing a streamer play it for the first time, get curious, and get said Roam Ending was so funny!

this was a game that blew my mind with the things someone could do with rpg maker and the possibilities it could lead to. I played hours of rpg horror games such as corpse party ao oni and tones more and it makes me sad to see the genre die down over the years -_-

So there is no good ending huh and devine ending really make me wonder what the thing outside the window

Man, I hope there can be a sequel to this

5:10 jump scare!

Yet another rpg maker style horror game that seems more like a death simulator than a game. Nice mmkay, will have a field day with this.

pretty nice looking game from the offset ^^ looks like you escape but the monster does too, but I'm okay with it- if it ended with her dying still it'd suck cause I freaking hate games where your character dies regardless in every ending X/ Also great death scenes, much better than that swamp lake thing ^^! kinda wish it was brighter in some parts (Like the 3rd death when shes hiding in something before dying, idk what the heck she hid in). Either way least this had some actual effort I can appreciate~

At bad ending 1 I was like "Girl, are you your own worst enemy?"

Does finding yourself have anything to do with the plot or is it just an easteregg? Does it do the same thing as a death? I presume dying just takes you back to the title screen?

"Cat is out of the bag" is more like it

So I presume, in the Epitaph ending, she hallucinates that she wakes up from a dream at home, but actually dies in the courtyard? Edit: Read on TVTropes that it’s because she slips and falls off of a cliff.

4:14 Why am I not stopping laughing from Girl's face? 🤣🤣🤣

Nightmare fuel

So her name is just girl? 🤔 she looks like a claire or Adria whatever name suits your best
