ReStory customer stories: Choices and Endings

Direct answer

ReStory customer stories are part of the core loop: official material says dialogue and choices can affect customers, the shop, the branching storyline, and its ending. Two independent community guides also map candidate story-achievement and final-choice routes, but one companion walkthrough was tested on the older 1.0.005r build. Exact current-build choice routes, relationship values, and the number of endings therefore remain unconfirmed.

How repairs connect to stories

Steam says players interact with customers while restoring their devices and experience a branching storyline with multiple endings. It also names customers with unique stories and dialogue as a key feature. That makes narrative choice a confirmed mechanic rather than fan interpretation.

PC Gamer independently observed that repairs reveal information about customers and their attachment to devices. The preview supports the framing, but it is not an ending walkthrough. Exact triggers and relationship tracking still need full-release evidence.

What the official examples establish

The store gives two broad examples: deciding whether to report disturbing information found on a former gangster’s phone and helping a student with a confession. They show that a device can expose personal information and lead to a choice. They do not reveal a universally correct response.

A guide should preserve those examples without inventing names, rewards, or route labels. Promotional wording is not an exact quest sequence. Timing, prerequisites, and consequences remain unconfirmed.

Multiple endings without an invented count

Multiple endings are confirmed by Steam, but no checked source provides the total count, unlock conditions, or whether each customer has a separate ending. Publishing a guessed number would turn a verified feature into false information. The overall shop story must also be separated from one customer outcome.

A route guide needs the starting save state, exact dialogue, immediate result, later consequence, and ending reached in the same version. Repeating the route or matching it to an official explanation is necessary before calling it deterministic. No best ending is named here.

Candidate route evidence (spoilers)

The official achievement list names Origami, Ghost in the frame, Melancholy, Ronin, Rock for the ages!, and Globalization. A Steam Community 100% guide and Casual Game Guides independently propose character-route associations and a final Hashimoto choice split for these names. Their overlap is useful for deciding what to retest, but it is not enough to publish a guaranteed current-release route.

Use the route evidence as a checklist: capture the exact dialogue, the save state before the choice, the immediate outcome, and the build number. Casual Game Guides labels its main-story test as 1.0.005r, while the official feed later lists 1.0.010r; do not carry forward a route or ending condition without a current-build reproduction.

How to test one route safely

1. Record the current build and make a separate save before the reported dialogue. 2. Copy the exact prompt and selected response. 3. Capture the immediate outcome and any achievement notification. 4. Repeat from the same save or compare with a second current-build record before calling the route deterministic.

The official feed and SteamDB independently identify v1.0.010r as the current release checkpoint used for this page’s August 19 review. A route recorded only on the older 1.0.005r companion test remains dated evidence until it is reproduced after the update.

Spoiler-safe documentation standard

Future route pages should answer the search question first and mark spoilers before revealing outcomes. Screenshots should preserve the dialogue wording, game version, and enough context to show what triggered the result. Community recollections can suggest tests but cannot become a definitive route alone.

This guide intentionally limits itself to the confirmed story system until those records exist. It does not copy a character database or fill missing profiles from speculation. Ages, preferences, relationship values, and complete personal routes remain unconfirmed.

Current-release verification checklist

This story-system overview was checked on August 19, 2026. The latest official patch feed does not publish a build-numbered dialogue route table or ending condition. For a route claim, record the save state and exact dialogue, capture the immediate result, then repeat the route or match it to an independent current source. If the result changes or only a community recollection supports it, keep the route unconfirmed.
