As you may know, all stories, whether good or bad, come to an end. And this time, it’s the turn of Blasphemous, one of the best —if not the best— indie games that, in my opinion, is a bit underrated, or at least this first installment. This title, offers us three endings for Penitentand in this guide we will talk about two of them, the good and the bad.
Both endings They are the easiest to get actually, since the true ending, which we talked about in this other guide here, has a higher difficulty level, and It can be a real challenge If you don’t have enough experience in the game, or you go cheated directly.
How to get the bad ending in Blasphemous
Main Bosses
We will start by talking about the bad or incomplete ending, since this There is not much mystery. To get the bad ending in Blasphemous, you will need to have defeated the seven bosses main ones, which we will leave their name and location below in a list:
- Have mercy | Tomb of Mercy.
- Our Lady of the Blackened Face | Convent of the Blackened Face.
- Three Sorrows | The Moan Rises.
- Ezra of the Anointed Legion | Bridge of the Three Calvaries
- Melquiades, The Exhumed Archbishop Mother of Mothers
- Expósito, Scion of Abjuration | The Sleeping Canvases
- Quirce, He Returned by the Flames | Wall of the Holy Prohibitions
Key Objects
Location of the three necessary masks.
Apart from this, it is also very important to have achieved three key objectswhich we will use to reach the final area of the map before facing the final boss. These They are the masksand below, we will also leave you a list with their appearance, how to get them and their location in the image above.

DEFORMED MASK OF ORESTES |
You can get it after defeating Melquiades in Mother of Mothers. |
|
CREST EMBOSSED MASK |
You can get it in the Library of Denied Words area. |
|
DOLFOS MIRROR MASK |
You can get it in the highest area of the Denegirda Face Convent, which you can only reach through the Wall of Holy Prohibitions. |
Once you have obtained these three objects, you will have to go to the Heights of the Archcathedralwhere you will find yourself an elevator with a statue of three faces, to which you will have to give said masks by interacting with it. This elevator, It will take you to different heights of the area by hitting any of the bells on its sides, but the one we are interested in is the one on the right side to upload until the end.
Final Phase
As we go up, we will come across Chrysanta of the Bandaged Agonya boss that may seem quite complicated, but the key to this one is actually the parries. When you have managed to defeat her, you will reach the last area of the game, called His Holiness’s Ambulatorywhere we will meet him final bossHis Holiness Scribe, which will be used as a basis, elemental attacks.
Once you have defeated him, he will give way to him Last Son of the Miraclethe second phase of this final battle. Just like the first phase, it will mostly launch elemental attacks, the only thing is that now there will be a sword that will do physical attacks, although this is not usually a major concern, since it goes quite slowly. To cause damage to the bosswe will have to hit him in the face when you open the mask, but when it is closed, we will have to attack the eye of the sword.
As a recommendation, I will tell you to get and use the Debla de las Luces prayer in this fight, since it is quite effective against this boss, so you won’t have to jump between platforms to hit his face.
By defeating him, you will meet Deograciaswho will ask you to walk alongside the ancient processions to the other side of the dream, watching as Penitente is swallowed by the giant mountain of ash, thus ending the penance of our protagonist and leaving us with an ending that is not enough for us. So now, we will tell you how to get the good ending.
How to get the good ending in Blasphemous
Key Object
To get the good ending in Blasphemous, we will have to get a key object before going to the final boss, which we get in the Camposanto de las Cumbres area. This object is called “Immaculate Account“, and you will have to equip it on the rosary and then die three times and the account will be called “Weight of true guilt“. Below are the stages, names and descriptions of the account each time you die.

|
IMMACULATE ACCOUNT |
A mere trinket, devoid of any purpose. Its pristine surface was never soiled by fervent fingers. |
|
ACCOUNT MARKED BY GUILT |
It is said to have absorbed the Guilt of its wearer. It is difficult to perceive the dark taint that writhes within it, but the chill that emanates from the touch leaves no room for doubt. Wearing it on your rosary prevents the accumulation of Guilt in the world, at least while the bead retains some of its purity. |
|
ACCOUNT TARNISHED BY GUILT |
It is said to have absorbed the Guilt of its bearer on several occasions. A black spiral swirls at its core, churning in fits of rage. Wearing it on your rosary prevents the accumulation of Guilt in the world, at least while the bead retains some of its purity. |
|
WEIGHT OF TRUE GUILT |
A completely impure sphere, which has absorbed the sins of its bearer until it is completely filled. It contains a storm of Guilt, and reverberates with the echoes of past mistakes. |
Steps and Final Phase
Once this is done, you will have to go to the rooms that are spread across the map in which there is inside A statue that forgives us our guilt in exchange for tears of amendment. These statues, you will have to break them giving them a few hits so that later, a kind of red circle appears which you will have to enter to fight with seven waves of enemies.
There is a total of seven statuesthat’s why the seven waves in each one. Every time we complete one of the challenges, the Thorn that Deogracias gave us At the beginning of the game, it will change its appearance until it becomes the Custody of Sin.
So, to give you an idea, during these challenges you have been feeding the little sprout with sin and guilt, making yourself in a certain way worthy of the Miracle, thus being able to climb the mountain of ashes to the end after defeating the final boss and getting the good ending.
You will be able to see the location of the seven statues on the interactive map that we have in a separate guide, but of course we leave it here for you in case you want to take a look.
