Shift At Midnight Night 13
Night 13 is the final Story shift. A full-release run and three independent guides agree that the last payout arrives before the pet-surgery check: if you did not call Clyde, at least $250 in personal funds produces the True Ending, while a shortfall produces Empty Home; calling Clyde after Shift 12 produces Grave Decision. One co-op client crash is reported, not universal.
Objectives
The recorded run starts Night 13 at 9010s. Complete the randomized station work and customer checks, survive any hunt, then receive the final payout. The surgery payment appears around 9420s in the True Ending recording.
Fixed events
The cross-source ending sequence is: finish Shift 12, make the Clyde choice, complete Shift 13, receive the final personal payout, then face the $250 surgery check. The exact Night 13 customer roster and hunt remain run-dependent.
Random or reported events
The SvalPlay recording is one successful True Ending run, not a fixed Night 13 walkthrough. Separately, one Windows co-op client reported crashing after the Empty Home cutscene while the host entered Endless; a developer logged the report without publishing a fix.
Enemies, resources, and tasks
| Final check | Action |
|---|---|
| Customer verdicts | Avoid human-kill earnings penalties; do not copy the video roster |
| Defenses | AllThings.How reports that store purchases use a different balance from surgery funds |
| Personal funds | The same guide reports this as the balance checked for surgery |
| End of shift | Wait for the final payout before judging whether the $250 target was met |
Ending-affecting choices
The Night 13 outcome completes the branch chosen after Night 12. Do not call Clyde plus at least $250 produces the reported True Ending; do not call plus less than $250 produces Empty Home; calling Clyde produces Grave Decision regardless of the balance, according to the three guides.
Failure points
AllThings.How reports that store purchases do not reduce personal surgery money; this wallet distinction is non-official guidance. If a co-op client crashes after the cutscene, record host/client role, ending, build, and whether the host reached Endless before attempting unsourced fixes.
Night 13 ending matrix
True Ending keeps Clyde and the pet alive by refusing the call and paying at least $250 after the final payout. Empty Home follows the same refusal with a shortfall. Grave Decision follows calling Clyde after Shift 12.
