Confusing completion with CG completion
Reaching an ending does not prove that every gallery branch was viewed. Track the Pool Scene separately.

Zooble Route Guide – Choices & Endings
Zooble's route is especially useful for gallery hunters because activity choices can produce different scenes and CG results. The Pool Scene is a confirmed branch point.

Quick Answer
The Key Zooble Route Strategy
Build the Zooble route during the first days, save before the Pool or outing choice, and replay the alternate activity option if the first album image remains locked.
Day-by-Day Checkpoints
| Stage | Recommended Approach |
|---|---|
| Days 1–2 | Establish Zooble as the route focus through direct, respectful interaction. |
| Day 3 | Prioritize Zooble-related activities when the schedule branches. |
| Pool / outing | Create a manual save. The alternate Pool Scene option can unlock a different CG. |
| Days 3–4 | Compare activity branches rather than assuming every scene leads to the same gallery result. |
| Day 5 | Keep the supportive tone consistent with the earlier route choices. |
Vocastar directly confirmed that choosing the other Pool Scene option unlocks a missing Zooble album image. Broader route advice is editorial and video-supported.
The Pool Choice and the Missing CG
The strongest confirmed fact for Zooble's route comes from an itch.io question about a missing first album image. Vocastar answered that the player should choose the other option in the Pool Scene.
That reply confirms a real choice-to-CG relationship. If the route reaches an ending but the gallery is incomplete, the correct next step is not necessarily a full restart. Reload the save before the Pool branch and test the alternate option first.
Route Completion Is Not Gallery Completion
Zooble's route demonstrates why an ending and a completed album are separate goals. A player can finish the relationship path while leaving a scene variant unseen because the outing decision changes the visual reward.
Use separate saves for the start of the route, the activity selection, the Pool Scene, and the late-game ending choice. Clear labels make it easier to return to one branch without overwriting the route state you already completed.
How to Use the Video Guide
The embedded all-endings video provides a visual reference for dialogue and outcome differences. It is most useful after you have identified which album slot is missing.
Do not assume the video proves that every choice shown is mandatory. Some selections may simply be the creator's route through the build. Treat the official Pool reply as confirmed and use the rest as a comparison tool.

Missing the Pool Scene save
