Trapezist fight or Cut The Act?
The two complete outcomes for Endacopia’s Misery Town boss.
Table of contents
The Trapezist is Misery Town’s fight-or-avoid boss. Choose based on the achievement you want and whether you brought the scalpel.
Release scope: Full release only. The Trapezist encounter is not part of the standalone demo.
Choose the outcome
| Goal | Prepare | Action at the encounter | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fight the Trapezist | Use the normal battle branch | Punch her thrown balls back at her | Fatal Performance |
| Avoid the battle | Keep the scalpel from the Whack-a-Clown route | Use the scalpel on the support rope before combat | Cut The Act |
Keep a save before the encounter if you intend to collect both outcomes without replaying the full area.
If you do not have the scalpel
Return to the Whack-a-Clown puzzle, complete its film-and-color solution, and collect the scalpel. The scalpel item page connects that reward to the operation and the Trapezist rope. Starting the normal fight without this preparation puts you on the Fatal Performance branch.
Open the focused route
Use How to unlock Fatal Performance for the focused fight method. Use How to unlock Cut The Act for the scalpel acquisition and rope interaction.
The Trapezist character page connects this choice to Misery Town’s scalpel and operation tasks.
For the equivalent route choices at the Chameleon and AI encounters, open the boss route planner.
