10 Video Game Endings Worse Than A Game Over
5. Any Ending - Call Of Cthulhu
As may come as a surprise to precisely nobody, Call of Cthulhu has exactly zero good endings. To be fair, when you're dealing with dark fish gods, chances are you aren't in for a happy time.
And so, you get to choose between a series of bad endings that vary in intensity, each of which are miserable for their own unique reasons.
One ending sees you stop the cult from summoning Cthulhu, but awaken to find yourself in an insane asylum - having either hallucinated the whole thing, or otherwise having been placed in a fake reality by dark forces.
Another one of the "happier" endings has you let a seriously disturbed woman kill herself in your stead, leaving you to become an alcoholic in peace. Or, otherwise, you can beat her to death when you go insane in yet another ending, which sees you murder Sarah as you become one of the tentacled god's playthings.
In short, this isn't a game to go into if you wanted a happy ending. But then, you probably guessed that the minute you started eating demon squid flesh.
