Which map has the Clean All the Leaves Secret Ending?

The current route for the ending uses The House map. Mansion and Gas Station are separate routes, and the live Journal should win if an update changes labels or unlocks.

Do I need every special leaf for the Secret Ending?

No. SECRET ENDING completion and Leaf Collection are separate badge goals. Hunt special leaves only if you also want the collection badge.

Why is my House map stuck at 99%?

Use the top-left tracker, then sweep stairs, bookshelves, corners, props, Pool and Backyard edges, and area boundaries. Wait for the next progress update before leaving.

What opens after the second Basement wave?

A door, path, or vent transition opens after the wave reaches completion. Follow the live prompt to the exit instead of looking for a code, since the exact label can change.

Complete every required area in The House to 100%, clear both Basement waves, and then take the door, path, or vent that opens. That transition leads to the SECRET ENDING badge.

Keep this run in House. Mansion and Gas Station are separate map routes, so they are not part of the steps below. Map labels and prompts can change after updates, so trust the live Journal, top-left percentage tracker, wave counter, and transition prompt in your server.

Spoiler warning: the last section shows what happens after you enter the ending path. Stop before that heading if you want to see the scene yourself.

Clear every House area to 100% before entering the Basement

The current House route names 11 areas: Shed, Garage, Frontyard, Porch, Court, Rooftop, Backyard, Pool, Maze, Farm, and Basement. Treat that list as a current-build map check. If the Journal uses a different label, follow the label in your server.

Finish the open starter areas. Clear Shed, Frontyard, Porch, and Court until each area shows 100%.
Open the Garage. Press the red button inside the Shed, then finish Garage before moving on.
Unlock Rooftop. Complete the open areas and follow the visible Rooftop unlock prompt. Do not force a fixed order if the Journal points elsewhere first.
Clear the late outdoor areas. Finish Backyard, Pool, and Maze, then follow the next prompt to Farm. These areas can be handled in the order your live objectives show.
Reach the Basement. Complete Farm and every earlier House area, then wait for the Basement access state to appear.

For broad outdoor patches, use the widest tool the Journal currently gives you. A Leaf Blower can speed up a large sweep, while a marked vent prompt may direct where leaves should go. The Hand or Rake helps around corners and props where leaves like to hide. In the Basement, use the interaction shown by the game instead of treating one tool or disposal method as permanent.

The Clean All The Leaves beginner guide's Journal and tool loop helps if collecting, selling, or upgrading is slowing down your House run.

Finish both Basement waves and enter the opened path

Basement is the final House checkpoint on the current route. It has two waves, so clearing the room once is not the finish line.

Clear wave one. Use the current cleanup prompt and wait for the progress display to update.
Clear wave two. Sweep the room again when the second wave starts. Check the stairs, bookshelves, corners, and other edges before calling it done.
Confirm 100%. Make sure the Basement reaches 100% or the equivalent completed state in your live tracker.
Follow the new opening. After wave two completes, look for the sliding gate, secret path, or door/vent transition shown by your game. Follow it to the exit.

Do not search for a keycode or a fixed hidden switch. The exact name of the final opening can change, but the live transition should show where to go.

If the opening does not appear, recheck the Basement tracker and nearby leaves first. The visible prompt and completion state matter more than an older route description.

Check the tracker if the ending does not start

If the badge does not appear, start with the area named in the top-left tracker. A 99% area has not registered as complete yet, so sweep the easy-to-miss places before searching for anything secret:

Check stairs, bookshelves, corners, and the spaces under or behind props.
Trace the Pool and Backyard edges, fences, and boundaries where a leaf may have crossed into a neighboring area.
Wait for the next wave or progress update, then read the Journal again.
Check that all House areas before the Basement show 100%.

The SECRET ENDING badge and Leaf Collection badge track different goals. You do not need every special leaf for the ending route.

What the Secret Ending shows

Spoiler: entering the opened path triggers a cutscene in a room with two people seated before multiple monitors showing the cleaned House areas. The scene presents them as the friends who assigned the cleanup. The visible result you need is the SECRET ENDING badge.

Your finish check is House completion, Basement wave two at 100%, and the newly opened transition. Keep the Journal, area percentages, wave counter, and live door/path/vent prompt as your authority after updates.

The Gas Station map areas guide covers that separate map when you are ready to follow its route.
