Home Alone (Anomaly) Endings — The Full Verification Library

Q: Is this the same as "Ending 4: Thank You"?

No — "Thank You / Mom's Key" belongs to At Home Alone , an unrelated Steam series; its guides mix into Home Alone (Anomaly) search results and should not be confused with this Roblox game.

Home Alone (Anomaly) Endings — The Full Verification Library — Anomaly Arcade original cover art — gameplay screenshots © their respective creators, not Roblox or any official source

This is the master index for every Home Alone (Anomaly) ending. Every entry carries an evidence badge, links to its own deep-dive page, and a plain-language answer to the question players actually ask: how well is this proven? We are independent — not affiliated with Roblox, 3 AM Productions or Freeground.

How to Read the Badges

✅ Verified — reproducible steps + final screen (or exact end-state) confirmed across 3+ independent sources.
🟡 Community-reported — widely claimed / single-source, but no independent repro or conflicting guides.
🔴 Unverified — no reproducible steps anywhere, including professional guides.

Status snapshot (September 2026): 4 endings verified (including the newly added Secret Basement ending from Update 4), 1 community-reported (Plumber).

The Endings Table

The "Plumber Ending"	unconfirmed (community label only)	🟡 community-reported	main guide

Survive the Night

Trigger: survive the full 12 AM–6 AM shift. Hit the chore money target, verify each visitor with cameras, room checks, and voice cues, reject every Anomaly by switching off the porch light, and keep Sanity above zero until morning.

Evidence: ✅ verified (4 sources) — IGN's All Endings guide lists it as the primary ending; full-walkthrough videos show the completion path; homealoneanomaly.com and Pro Game Guides describe the same route.

Sanity Zero (Bad Ending)

Trigger: repeatedly let Anomalies inside. Each mistake drops Sanity; the house starts hallucinating (graffiti, monsters, broken furniture) and at zero the run collapses.

Evidence: ✅ verified (3 sources) — IGN documents it as the third ending with its own end state; Rock Paper Shotgun and Pro Game Guides both confirm the Sanity-death mechanic.

Survive Without the Money

Trigger: survive with Sanity intact but skip the chores; Mom sends you back to try again the next night. IGN documents it explicitly as the second ending — easy to miss by accident, not hidden.

Evidence: ✅ verified — IGN states the exact trigger. Community videos corroborate, making it the cleanest of the three to confirm.

Ending 4 (The Secret Basement Ending)

Trigger: unlock the hidden basement hatch between 2 AM and 4 AM, inspect the brother's lore notes and drawings, and survive until 6 AM inside the basement. Triggers a custom cinematic revealing the mystery of the missing brother.

Evidence: ✅ verified — officially implemented in Update 4 (August 12, 2026). Step-by-step video walkthroughs from creators like WatchMeWin, BubbleRants, and yazzizk confirm the exact trigger sequence and unique end screen. See the full Ending 4 Walkthrough.

The "Plumber Ending" (Community-Named)

Trigger: unverified. The plumber visitor is real — he claims a leaky bath faucet; check the bathroom and let him in only if it is leaking. Some creators imply a special outcome tied to him, but no source documents an ending name, final screen, or reproducible steps.

Evidence: 🟡 community-reported — the label appears in multiple video titles and guide pages; no checked source contains a unique trigger. We will not invent one.

Update 4 & Update 5 Evolution (August 2026)

Following the initial release wave, the developer published two major content patches:

Update 4 (August 12): Added the Secret Basement, implemented Ending 4, increased nighttime visitor frequency, and added new voice lines.
Update 5 (August 19): Added new visitors (The Nun, The Faceless Man, The Slasher, The Clown), in-game Visitor Index, camera zoom/pan controls, and updated end screens.

FAQs

How many endings does Home Alone (Anomaly) have? Four endings are fully verified (Survive the Night, Sanity Zero, Survive Without Money, and the Secret Basement Ending 4), while the "Plumber Ending" remains an unproven community rumor.

How do I reach Ending 4? Maintain high sanity, access the basement hatch during the night, inspect the brother's clues, and survive until 6 AM. See our Ending 4 deep-dive for exact steps.

Is this the same as "Ending 4: Thank You"? No — "Thank You / Mom's Key" belongs to At Home Alone, an unrelated Steam series; its guides mix into Home Alone (Anomaly) search results and should not be confused with this Roblox game.
