Neutralized Ending Guide
Employee Neutralized - Systematic termination
The Neutralized Ending is a bad ending in Scary Shawarma Kiosk: The Anomaly, triggered by accumulating five or more errors during the night shift. Each mistake causes the meat monster beside the fridge to grow larger. At five errors, it fully emerges from the floor, grabs the player, and neutralizes them for exceeding acceptable performance limits.
Keep errors below 5 to avoid the Neutralized Ending. The meat monster represents the Inspector's systematic termination protocol for poor performance—every mistake brings you closer to employee neutralization.
Unlock Conditions
Event Sequence
Large hunk of meat emerges from floor between fridge and grill, progressively climbing and growing larger with each error until fully grown; monster reaches out with elongated limbs to grab player.
Jumpscare sound on grab and kill; mechanical devouring noises; no persistent whispers unlike other endings.
Story & Lore
The Inspector's meat form represents systematic termination of employees who exceed acceptable error limits. The Neutralized Ending is the ultimate disciplinary measure—when performance drops below standards, the protocol enforces compliance through elimination.
Reinforces the core mechanic of error management. The meat chunk serves as a visual progress bar—watch it grow or face the consequences. The Neutralized Ending teaches that consistent vigilance is required for survival.
| Ending | Errors | Result | Lore |
|---|---|---|---|
| Perfect/Good | 0 errors | Full survival, calm city | Perfect escape from cycle |
| Unstable | 1-4 errors | Mirror replacement, twisted survival | Cycle continues |
| Neutralized/Bad | 5+ errors | Monster consumes/kiosk destroyed | Immediate neutralization |
| Silence | Open envelope | Teleported, consumed | Silent entity captures |
| Erased | Inspection look back | Shrunk, erased | Presence unauthorized |
Tips & Strategy
Watch the meat chunk near the fridge closely. It grows with each error—if getting large, you're approaching the threshold for employee termination.
Check every customer with CCTV from multiple angles. Toggle night vision to detect anomalies. Consistent camera use is key to avoiding the errors that lead to failure.
Purchase Internal Control from Corruption Shop to reset error count. Use proactively when approaching 3-4 errors, before termination becomes inevitable.
Learn common anomaly patterns: faceless customers, distorted figures, duplicates in night vision. Recognizing these quickly helps avoid mistakes.
Most players experience this outcome on first attempts. Learn from mistakes, study anomaly features, and aim for Unstable before Perfect. The Neutralized Ending is part of the learning process.
Game Rules
- •Only serve shawarma to confirmed human customers.
- •Use security cameras before opening the door.
- •Check both CCTV cameras (Cam 1 front, Cam 2 back) and toggle night vision for every customer.
- •Do NOT serve anomalous customers. Mistakes add +1 error.
Give the customer a can of soda. Take the paper bundle from the customer by holding the E key. Place the bundle underneath the table in the kiosk. No matter what happens, do not open the bundle.
Whenever he arrives, do not look at his face for too long and simply prepare his order. Closing the shutter on this anomaly is considered a mistake.
When the Inspector's car arrives, do not look at it or close the shutter. Do not look at the monitor or the shawarma during the inspection. Exit the kiosk quickly and hide behind the trash can. Only return when sure inspection is complete.
Turn off the power button for the shawarma stand. Exit the kiosk immediately and return only when the noises have subsided.
Close the shutter and remain inside the kiosk. Close the exit door to prevent any fog from entering the building.
Close the shutter multiple times, and the anomaly will disappear (gets closer but harmless).
Close the shutter when the masked man arrives. Keep the exit door closed. Do not serve him food and ignore him like other anomalies.
