I have solved the ending of Poppy Playtime.

Chapter 4 may have only been released a few weeks ago, but hidden beneath its gruesome and glitchy surface are a few small details that not only tell us where Chapter 5 is heading, but how this entire franchise is going to end.

Spoiler alert, this ending is not a happy one.

Hello internet, welcome to Game Theory, the show that moulds to Spoiler alert, this ending is not a happy one.

Hello internet, welcome to Game Theory, the show that moulds to whatever new law Poppy throws at us.

And there is a lot of that going on in Chapter 4.

Mob clearly saw the success of Chapter 3 and said, let's do that again, but more.

We've got more characters, more collectibles, and the most important thing, more game-breaking bugs.

Let's open with my peacoyne.

Open!

I'm wealthy, let me in!

Mob game said, that's a bug if you have your hands full of peacoins.

Sorry, sad face.

I found the pe-coin bug.

But while the gameplay may be broken, how is the game Law doing?

This is the fourth installment, after all,

and that's about the time where the indie horror law can get a bit wonky, shall we say.

Well, I'm happy to report that it seems like Mob is learning from our FNAF frustrations,

because this chapter is full of something we theorists crave.

Clarifying details. Things like, what is Poppy's true identity? Well, it's now confirmed that she is in fact Elliot Ludwig's daughter.

I wish you were here, Dad, when you were running this place, you always knew what to say.

Is Ollie really the prototype? That answer is now a resounding yes.
