SAURUS Badges & Escape Endings

SAURUS [HORROR] by Pegasi Games rewards a clean enclosure clear with badges and a run score. This page is the badge and ending reference for survivors who want to know when each award fires. It is not a branching story map. There is no multi-ending maze with alternate bosses, secret wing keys, or mutually exclusive finale rooms. The fantasy stays the same every session: collect six fuses, power the yellow generator to 100%, open the perimeter blast gate, and leave alive while the T-Rex and Carnotaurus hunt the park.

If you still need the mechanical route, start with How to Escape and Fuse Locations. Landmark orientation lives on the Enclosure Map. Solo pacing that makes badges realistic sits on Solo Tips. Harder modifiers belong under Challenge Mode.

Ending model in plain language

Think of SAURUS endings as completion states layered on one escape spine, not as a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure tree.

• Objective complete: generator at 100% → gate systems unlock.
• Run complete: you cross the open blast gate while still alive.
• Badge / score layer: Roblox badges and personal records celebrate those milestones (and how cleanly you reached them).

You will not find a separate “good ending” hallway versus an “evil ending” hallway. The pressure comes from dinosaurs, traps, scent tracking, and your own greed—not from picking dialogue that forks the map.

Badge: Power Restored

Power Restored is the mid-finale systems badge. It triggers when the yellow Center Building generator reaches 100% after the sixth fuse insert. In practical terms:

1. You have seated all six industrial fuses in the generator sockets.
2. The power meter fills and the UI treats the enclosure exit systems as live.
3. Your objective text flips from fuse collection toward escaping the enclosure.

Power Restored is not the same as leaving the park. You can earn the generator completion moment and still die on the dirt road before the gate. Treat it as the “systems are up” stamp, then immediately commit to the main-road sprint described in How to Escape.

Reliable Power Restored habits

• Bank early at roughly 33% (first two Center Building fuses) so outer deaths do not erase everything.
• Bank again near 83% before the last outer loop when patrols are nasty.
• Do not celebrate inside the generator room. Call the gate path the second the meter hits 100%.
• In co-op, one player should own the insert call so the lobby does not stand still debating screenshots.

Badge: Escape Artist

Escape Artist is the surviving-escape badge. Community and walkthrough language ties it to finishing the trial—crossing the lifted blast gate after Power Restored—rather than to a hidden side objective. In short: generator complete is not enough; you have to make it out.

Practical reading for runners:

• If you die at 100% on the gate road, you may already have Power Restored credit from the insert, but Escape Artist expects a living exit.
• Trap snaps and panic sprints on the main road are the classic post-100% killers. Keep the flashlight low enough to see metal jaws.
• Solo players should treat the gate sprint as a controlled push, not a victory lap. Co-op lobbies should leave together so nobody farms a lonely wipe behind the squad.

Escape Artist is the badge most players mean when they say “I finally escaped SAURUS.” Pair the mental checklist with Solo Tips if you keep dying alone after the meter is already green.

Badge: The End?

The End? sits in the same surviving-escape family. Pegasi’s naming leaves a deliberate question mark—the enclosure trial is over for this run, while the studio’s active development and teased dinosaurs imply the park fantasy can still grow. For badge hunting, treat The End? as an end-state award tied to finishing the escape sequence alive, not as proof of a second secret finale room.

What that means for wiki readers:

• Do not waste hours hunting a phantom “true ending” corridor that forks after the gate.
• Do use The End? as motivation to complete a full living clear after Power Restored.
• Re-check Updates and Launch Notes if Pegasi later ships additional end-state badges; this page tracks the launch-era trio players actually discuss.

Deathless clears versus any-escape clears

Players talk about two pride ladders that sit on top of the same gate:

Any-escape clear

You may have died earlier in the attempt (especially in co-op where teammates continue) or you may simply care about crossing the threshold once. Focus on banking percent, finishing Fuse #6 safely, and surviving the road. Escape Artist / The End? style completion is the goal; style points can wait.

Deathless clear

You want a clean personal run with no deaths on the attempt. Solo is the purest version of this ladder. Deathless runs punish every trap, every doorway peek, and every greedy Fuse #6 grab. The badge names may still be the same, but the score and personal record layer is where deathless play shows up. If your only goal tonight is a first Escape Artist, do not sabotage yourself by resetting every time a teammate downs—unless you explicitly agreed on a deathless squad rule.

Score mindset without inventing hidden meters

SAURUS surfaces personal records and a global ranking fantasy on top of successful escapes. Exact score formula details can shift while Pegasi iterates, so this wiki does not invent decimal weights. What stays true for badge hunters:

• Completing the six-fuse → 100% → gate spine is the backbone of every meaningful score run.
• Challenge modifiers raise intensity and rewards; they are optional stress tests, not alternate endings—see Challenge Mode.
• Cleaner play (fewer deaths, fewer trap snaps, less wasted time) is the durable way to improve records even when the UI math is opaque.

Farming plan for the launch badge trio

1. Learn the spawn → beacon → 33% bank until it is boring.
2. Add outer workstation loops from Fuse Locations with scent and trap discipline.
3. Hit 100% for Power Restored, then force yourself to leave immediately.
4. Survive the blast-gate sprint for Escape Artist / The End? style completion.
5. Only then stack Challenge modifiers for harder records.

Use the Enclosure Map to keep jeep, beacon, and gate road landmarks straight when panic erases your sense of direction.

What this page deliberately does not claim

• No invented fourth ending that requires a unique fuse color.
• No claim that dying on purpose unlocks a better badge.
• No fabricated YouTube “secret ending” routes.
• No promise that badge icons or exact unlock text never change in a future Pegasi patch.

When a patch renames or splits rewards, update this article from Updates instead of rewriting the enclosure fantasy into a lore maze it is not.
