All 4 Endings in Blood Money and How to Unlock Them

Blood Money is a deceptively simple clicker game that hides a surprising amount of dark storytelling in Itch IO. Beneath its repetitive clicking and profit upgrades lies four distinct endings — each revealing a different fate for you and Harvey Harrington. Whether you choose to play the game cleanly or let greed get the better of you, the outcome changes dramatically. This guide breaks down all four endings, their requirements, and even the hidden files lurking inside the game’s code.

1. Bad Ending – The Greedy Route

To get the bad ending, you must follow the “logical” path of the game: buy every single shop item, multiplying your profit along the way. Eventually, you’ll purchase the gun — and that’s where everything turns dark. Once you have the weapon, you shoot Harvey, ending his life instantly. You keep the money you’ve earned, ready to pay for the operation you’ve been working toward… only to reveal that it wasn’t even necessary. You simply wanted the wealth. With your pockets full, you drive away, leaving the scene of the crime behind.

How to Unlock:

• Keep clicking to earn money.
• Purchase every available shop upgrade.
• Buy the gun when it appears.
• Use the gun to kill Harvey.

2. Good Ending – No Blood on Your Hands

The good ending is possible if you click your way to $25,000 without harming Harvey. You can use the needle to speed things up, but avoid buying any violent upgrades.
In this ending, you achieve your goal honestly. Harvey remains alive and well, even waving goodbye as you leave for your surgery. You get the operation and can take pride in the fact that you never resorted to violence.

How to Unlock:

• Keep clicking until you reach $25,000.
• You may buy harmless upgrades like the needle for faster earnings.
• Avoid buying scissors, knives, or the gun.
• Finish the game without attacking Harvey.

3. Normal Ending – The Scissors Incident

This ending occurs if you purchase the scissors but stop before buying any more harmful items. While the scissors do physical damage to Harvey, they aren’t outright lethal. When you hit $25,000, Harvey takes you to court for grievous bodily harm. The trial scene shows him scarred and unrecognizable, staring you down with quiet fury. The surgery still happens, but your actions catch up to you with the very real possibility of a long prison sentence.

How to Unlock:

• Earn enough money to purchase the scissors.
• Attack Harvey with the scissors.
• Avoid buying the knife or the gun.
• Reach $25,000 with scissors as your only harmful upgrade.

4. Rare Game Over – Harvey Fights Back

This is the only scenario in the game where you can get an actual game over screen. It happens when you attack Harvey repeatedly with the knife. If you stop clicking during his counterattack, Harvey overpowers you — leading to your defeat. Most players never see this scene because they instinctively keep clicking. But if you hesitate, Harvey makes sure you pay the price.

How to Unlock:

• Purchase the knife from the shop.
• Attack Harvey with it.
• Stop clicking during his counterattack.
• Watch as Harvey defeats you.

Secret Files Hidden in the Game

Digging into the game files reveals a handful of hidden audio tracks and developer messages:

• 25yearswithoutamp3 – A cryptic voice clip mentioning “25 years.”
• secretmessage.mp3 – A playful jab at anyone snooping in the files, asking how your day’s been.
• Super Debug 1, 2, and 3 – Files that hint at internal testing tools, ending abruptly with “Uh-oh.”

While these don’t impact gameplay, they add a layer of charm (and mystery) to Blood Money.

Blood Money offers more than meets the eye, blending clicker mechanics with branching morality paths and hidden developer Easter eggs. Whether you choose to play honestly, take the violent route, or explore the rare game over, each ending gives a different perspective on greed and consequence. If you want the full experience, aim to unlock all four endings — and maybe poke around the game files for those cheeky hidden messages.
