Say Cheese full guide: All 12 Endings Walkthrough

Say Cheese is a Roblox story game built around observation rather than combat. You explore a small world, watch circles, squares, and other characters, then decide which moments become news. Each photograph can change the headline, and those headlines influence how the story develops.

The camera is therefore more than a collection tool. It is the main way you shape the narrative. A picture that makes one character appear frightened can create suspicion, arguments, or conflict. A picture of a rescue or peace sign can move the story in a more positive direction.

Video Highlights:

• Learn the basic camera and headline system.
• Review routes for all 12 known endings.
• See why timing and focused photo choices matter.
• Use restarts to pursue one outcome at a time.

The most reliable approach is to treat every run as a controlled experiment. Pick one target ending, identify its required photo pattern, and avoid unrelated subjects unless the route specifically needs them.

A focused route makes the 12-ending hunt much easier. Before starting, decide whether you are pursuing a conflict route, a character route, an object route, or a special timing route. Then use the following process to keep your photos consistent.

The table below summarizes the known requirements. Treat the wording as a practical route guide: the correct subject and timing matter more than simply taking a large number of photos.

The endings fall into several useful categories. Some are built around repeated subjects, some depend on a single carefully framed scene, and others require you to stop photographing altogether. Understanding the category helps you prepare before the event appears.

Conflict and headline routes

The viral ending is the main escalation route. Photograph moments that make circles and squares appear suspicious or afraid of one another. Continue supporting that tension through arguments, confrontations, and other negative developments. The goal is to make the conflict become the dominant story.

The eyes closed ending takes the opposite approach. When violence begins, stop taking photographs of the fighting. This route rewards restraint instead of escalation, so do not continue documenting the conflict as though you were pursuing the viral outcome.

The breaking news ending is unusual because it requires five pictures of essentially nothing. Empty grass or blank scenery gives the news station no useful information, allowing it to create its own news. Keep the frames intentionally uneventful.

Character and object routes

For the cricket ending, locate the small cricket or grasshopper-like creature and keep photographing it. For the TV ending, focus the camera on the television rather than following every character event. Both routes are easier when you ignore distractions.

The scared ending requires three pictures of the scared circle. The critical framing rule is to leave out the square that caused the fear. If the frightening square appears in the frame, reposition before taking the shot.

The peace ending uses characters holding peace signs. Photograph those moments repeatedly so the peaceful message remains the central headline. The hot ending similarly requires repeated attention on the character treated as attractive.

Special framing and timing routes

The reverse ending is primarily a framing challenge. You need seven people in one photograph, so wait until enough characters gather and adjust your position before pressing the shutter.

The good ending depends on recognizing a square rescuing two people near the corner of the scene. Photograph the rescue as a positive event rather than documenting nearby conflict.

For the Say Cheese ending, watch for the character or interaction where someone says “say cheese,” then photograph that moment three times. Confirm that the correct subject is visible each time.

The follow the money ending requires attention before chaos begins. Look for a character handing over money and photograph the exchange at the right time. Do not wait until the later conflict becomes the obvious event.

Replaying Say Cheese is part of the intended progression. Since different photo patterns produce different headlines, a single run may not be suitable for discovering every outcome. Use a fresh attempt whenever you change from a repeated-subject route to a framing route or from a conflict route to a peaceful route.

A clean restart also makes failed attempts easier to diagnose. If the ending does not appear, ask whether the subject was correct, whether the frame included an unwanted character, whether the timing was late, or whether another photo redirected the story.

The best order for a full completion run is flexible. Many players may prefer to begin with simple subject routes, then move to timing-heavy outcomes. The cricket and TV endings provide clear targets, while reverse, good, and follow the money require more patience.

A practical order could be:

1. Cricket
2. TV
3. Peace
4. Scared
5. Say Cheese
6. Hot
7. Breaking News
8. Reverse
9. Good
10. Follow the Money
11. Viral
12. Eyes Closed

This order is not mandatory, but it separates straightforward repeated-subject routes from more demanding timing and framing attempts.

The camera system can seem unpredictable at first because the game turns images into headlines and then uses those headlines to influence the next events. Once you separate each ending into a clear objective, the route hunt becomes much more manageable.
