  1. In the Queen's Castle, unlock Soar and find the Mysterious Map.

Ending questions

How many endings does Well Dweller have?

Two recorded endings: the ending after beating the Queen, and the true ending, which reunites the flock after you gather five spirit fragments.

Can I get the true ending after the credits?

Yes. There is no point of no return — you can finish the spirits and fragments after the final boss.

Do I need all spirits for the true ending?

Yes. Returning all 20 spirits is part of the final objective, alongside the five fragments.
