Event Gameplay

The event is available in three phases which gradually open more menu items as time passes. Players are required to unlock and complete operations for all menu items in the preceding phase before unlocking the menu for the next phase. Phases are timed as follows (all times shown in UTC+9):

• Phase 1: May 16, 17:00
• Phase 2: May 19, 11:00
• Phase 3: May 22, 11:00

Event Story: Memory Collection

Each event story section but the epilogue has four sub-stories, which are unlocked the first time a player Rests during that phase's menu item for each male lead. Unlock all four menu item stories to proceed to the next main event story.

• Prologue
• New Dish Tasting (Phase 1 menu)

Step 1: Request Funding (debates)

The Request Funding portion of the event serves the player's source of the Ingredients Voucher items used to unlock the menu. These debates may be challenged up to five times per day, refreshing at 04:00 (UTC+9) daily. Later in the event, up to Ingredients Voucher x50 can be purchased for S-Chip x50 each in Mall > Packs > Time-Limited.

• Supply Requisition I: 18051 rec. power, Ingredients Voucher x45
• Supply Requisition II: 40065 rec. power, Ingredients Voucher x48
• Supply Requisition III: 91189 rec. power, Ingredients Voucher x52
• Supply Requisition IV: 151697 rec. power, Ingredients Voucher x55

Step 2: Store Operations

Each menu item must be unlocked with Ingredients Voucher x200 and may be replayed as often as desired after unlocking. Menu items have four performance indicators: Food Quality (Quality), Service Efficiency (Efficiency), Level of Service (Service), and Sanitation (Environment). Note that Sanitation is referred to as "Environment" in several dialogues; the guides below have opted to standardize this to "Sanitation" in every instance to avoid confusion.

The goal is to get the highest possible operation score, which is the sum of the scores of the four performance indicators, in 10 rounds. For each menu item, the maximum operation score is 4500 points: one performance indicator will have a cap of 1500 points and the other three will have lower cap of points.

Upon beginning operations for a menu item, a ten-round game will start. With each round, the player selects one performance indicator to increase. The base increase is +150 per selection (+225 for the specialty 1500-point performance indicator). However, these can be increased further by paying attention to the performance indicators that are currently in a bonus state (top right of the screen); these performance indicators receive an additional 50% score, giving the player +225 points per selection (or +300 for the specialty 1500-point performance indicator). When a performance indicator reaches its cap, its score cannot increase any further.

The male lead's energy starts with five full energy packs, and each action depletes one; no actions may be taken if no energy remains. Resting replenishes energy fully and consumes one round.

For each phase, players will receive rewards after achieving certain cumulative total scores, as follows:

• 3500: Glowy Conch x160
• 7000: Glowy Conch x200
• 10500: Glowy Conch x240
• 14000: S-Chip x30

Round 2 Event: Hurried Office Worker

Hurried Office Worker: Is my coffee ready yet?

You: Thank you for your patience. We're still dealing with earlier orders.

Hurried Office Worker: Hey... what happened to the guaranteed service in ten minutes? I've been waiting for eleven minutes.

You: We're terribly sorry. We try our best to guarantee our service speed, but it might take longer when we're very busy.

Hurried Office Worker: Fine, fine. Just get on with it.

You: ...Your coffee is ready. I'll put it in a takeout bag for you.

You: We've also prepared a small gift to thank you for your patience. Have a nice day.

Hurried Office Worker: Oh, a gift. That's more like it.

After the white-collar workers left, the group talked it over and decided to regularly prepare small gifts to use when necessary.

Round 5 Event: Nearby Student

Nearby Student: Sparkling coffee... That's pretty novel... but...

You: Hi there! That sparkling coffee is one of our new products. Would you like to try it?

Nearby Student: Yeah... but is it really sweet? I want to try it, but I don't like my coffee too sugary.

Luke: No problem. I can specially blend it and adjust the sweetness for you, and you can see if you like it!

Luke: If you don't enjoy it, it's on the house.

Nearby Student: Eh? Are you sure?

Luke: Of course! Our shop's tenet is to satisfy all our customers' reasonable requests!

Nearby Student: Okay, I'll give it a try then!

Luke: Sure thing. If you like it, just help us spread the word!

The student was very satisfied with the taste of the coffee. After happily paying the bill, they even recommended the coffee to their other classmates.

Round 7 Event: Child's Parent

A parent said that their child had lost their goggles. They looked around for a long time but couldn't find them anywhere. They are hoping for the shop's help.

Child's Parent: Eh... Did I leave it on the table?

Child's Parent: Not here either... Where did it go?

You: Hello, how can I help you?

Child's Parent: We just finished eating, and my child lost his goggles somewhere.

Child's Parent: Honestly, that boy always loses things... I'm always cleaning up after him.

Luke: Don't worry — we have full surveillance coverage in the shop. Are you sure he brought the goggles with him into the shop?

Child's Parent: Yeah, I remember. They were hanging around his neck when we came in.

Luke: Once I'm done here, I'll go help you check the surveillance footage.

Child's Parent: Great, thank you guys!

Luke: You're welcome. We do our best to help our customers!

After checking the surveillance footage, you learned some clues about the lost goggles. You wrote down the parents' contact information and promised to contact them once you find them.

Round 2 Event: Woman Who Just Arrived

Several puddles of water have appeared inside the shop, causing problems for many customers. They are even questioning the shop's sanitation. Please investigate the source of the puddles.

Woman Who Just Arrived: Hey, why's there so much water here... That was close!

You: Hello, Miss. Is something wrong?

Woman Who Just Arrived: Hey, why is there so much water on the floor here? There's no warning sign, and I almost slipped.

You: We're terribly sorry. We will take care of it immediately.

Artem: The color of the floor makes it hard to tell whether there's water or not. I've placed a warning sign over there and asked someone to clean it up.

Artem: Otherwise, people coming and going will step in the puddle and spread it everywhere. Customers may question our cleanliness.

You: Mr. Wing, you really have considered everything. But why was there a puddle of water in the shop in the first place?

Artem: I have a few speculations, but I will need to review the surveillance footage.

Artem: Once we're done here, we can check the footage.

You: Okay.

From the surveillance footage, you discover the reason for the water puddle. You create a rule for customers who do not follow the instructions to dry themselves off before entering the shop.

Round 5 Event: Frustrated Caregiver

Frustrated Caregiver: Hey, are there a lot of fish bones in your dishes?

You: The fish we choose are the type with fewer bones. They're lined up neatly and are easy to pick out.

Frustrated Caregiver: Can you remove all the fish bones for me? If so, I'll get an order to go.

Artem: The aesthetics of the dish will be ruined if we remove the fish bones. If you don't mind, we can certainly remove them for you.

Frustrated Caregiver: What good are aesthetics? Food's all the same after you eat it.

Artem: ...Very well, please wait a moment.

Frustrated Caregiver: Haven't I waited long enough already? Hurry up, or my father's gonna lecture me for slacking off. If you take too long, I'll file a complaint.

You: (This caregiver has looked exhausted from her job for some time. I should help Mr. Wing speed things up.)

The caregiver mutters while waiting, seemingly complaining about work. The caregiver frequents the shop afterward, and the elder in his care is very satisfied with the food.

Round 7 Event: Retiree

Retiree: Hey, young lady, can I ask... what that table ordered?

You: Oh, the customers at that table ordered our grilled fish. It's absolutely delicious. A lot of our repeat customers order it. Would you like to try it?

Retiree: Yeah, it looks tasty. One order of that, please.

Retiree: By the way, young lady, here's some salt. Please use this to make the fish for me... It's good for my health.

You: Ahh... um, Sir, we always follow a set recipe for our dishes. It may not be convenient to use your seasoning.

Retiree: But this is good stuff. It softens the blood vessels and lowers my blood pressure. I always use this for my meals. It works.

You: I'm sure it works great, Sir. But our shop has its own unique way of cooking fish. Using your salt might affect the flavor...

Retiree: I see... Well, the flavor's the most important thing... Forget the salt then. Let me see how good your fish really is.

You: We promise not to disappoint you.

After serving the dish, the elder finished the entire plate of grilled fish. You received several compliments when settling the bill.

Round 2 Event: White-Collar Worker

White-Collar Worker: I saw a discount poster stuck outside your shop. Which products are on sale?

You: All of our new products are discounted. Does anything here interest you?

White-Collar Worker: They all look great. Do I get an even bigger discount if I buy in bulk?

You: Sure, if you want to buy in bulk... feel free to take a look at our sets. They're even more affordable.

White-Collar Worker: In that case, two orders of this set to go, please. I'll share it with my colleague.

You: Sure, I've also prepared a small gift for you. I hope you and your colleague have a great day.

White-Collar Worker: Haha, how adorable. Thanks.

The white-collar worker later became a regular, often bringing colleagues along for a treat.

Round 5 Event: Coughing Doctor

Coughing Doctor: *Cough, cough*... anything that's easy to swallow? *Cough cough*... my throat hurts.

You: How about our new jello? It's sweet and sour, which should make your throat feel better.

Coughing Doctor: Sounds great. One order, please.

Coughing Doctor: *Cough, cough*... Around how long will it take?

Vyn: The jello is already done, but the garnish will take some time. Are you short on time?

Coughing Doctor: *Cough, cough*... yes.

Vyn: In that case, you can leave an address with us. We provide takeout service.

Coughing Doctor: Ahh, that works... Then I'll place a few more orders and let my interns try it too.

Vyn: Sure, no problem.

This doctor must be the one that gave the anonymous five-star rating with a hospital background you received afterward.

Round 7 Event: Unhappy Customer

A customer said that the seat they were assigned to already had someone sitting in it. However, when the seat was assigned, it was empty. Hurry and check on the situation with the seat.

Unhappy Customer: Waitress, what table did you ask me to sit at?

You: Table 10. Right around there.

Unhappy Customer: But there are no empty tables here. Don't tell me there's no room.

You: That doesn't sound right... We just cleared table 10.

Unhappy Customer: Come take a look yourself. The table's taken!

You: Eh? There's a cellphone bag here, but that wasn't here when we cleared the table...

Vyn: A customer may have left it here by accident right after we cleared the table.

Unhappy Customer: Enough with the speculations! Fix this problem for me. I'm starving and I need to eat!

Unhappy Customer: I don't want this seat anymore either. What if I sit here and that person comes back looking for a phone?

Vyn: Sir, we will arrange another table for you. The matter with the phone will be resolved by checking the surveillance footage.

You: Dr. Richter, let's check the footage after we're all done here. I wonder what's going on...

After checking, you confirmed that this was an abandoned cell phone bag and arranged for the store employee to clean up the table once again.

Round 2 Event: Hurried Shop Staff

The store employee came to you in a panic and stated that while cleaning, they discovered that many of the shop's plates were missing. The employee urges you to quickly find out what's going on.

Hurried Shop Staff: Ten... How come there are only ten left? That can't be right... But I didn't count wrong. One, two, three...

You: What happened? You've been counting for a while.

Hurried Shop Staff: Ugh... I noticed the dishes aren't adding up... I already counted them several times.

You: They don't add up? Did we lose some more plates...?

Marius: I don't get it. What's so special about our plates that we keep losing them?

You: Now's not the time to joke. Can you think it over? Did you misplace them somewhere?

Hurried Shop Staff: No, there's no way. I've looked everywhere. It just doesn't add up...

Hurried Shop Staff: It's not gonna come out of my salary, is it...?

You: Don't worry. We need to know what happened before we can ascertain who's responsible... It seems that...

Marius: [Player], it seems we're on the same page. Once I'm done, we can check out the footage.

You: Yeah, until we figure this out, who knows what else might go missing...

Marius: Don't worry too much about it. Whoever the culprit may be, they won't be able to escape me.

Through the surveillance footage, you successfully identified the customer who stole the plates and quickly retrieved them.

Round 5 Event: Vlogger

Vlogger: The decorations here are absolutely adorable... Hey, do you guys have any frozen treats that'll look great in photos?

You: Yes, all of our frozen treats look great in photos. If I had to pick the best...

Marius: It would have to be our shaved ice. Not only is it delicious and gorgeous, but it was designed by a famous artist.

Vlogger: That sounds great. I'll take that. Make it look good...

Vlogger: I never touch up any of the photos on my blog. So don't blame me if they don't turn out well.

Marius: Rest assured. Our shaved ice is a sight to behold, even in photos that aren't staged!

Vlogger: Well, given how confident you are, I'm looking forward to seeing how many views I get.

Later on, a number of customers visited the shop to inquire which shaved ice is the "most aesthetic."

Round 7 Event: Police Officer

Police Officer: Hello, do you guys offer takeout service? I'm afraid my frozen treat will melt if I bring it home with me.

You: Yes, we do. We have prepared special insulated packaging to ensure that takeout orders are still up to standard.

Police Officer: Okay then. I'd like fifteen orders of shaved ice delivered to the police station down the street.

You: Okay, no problem. What flavors would you like?

Police Officer: Oh, I never considered what flavors they would like... Which flavors would you recommend?

You: Well, our shop's most popular flavors are strawberry and vanilla. Chocolate is also a favorite among our customers.

Police Officer: Those three flavors then — five of each.

You: Okay. Just a moment.

Afterward, the shop frequently received orders from the precinct. The most frequently ordered flavor is strawberry.

There are Glowy Conch x1,400 available by completing all three phases of tasks in the "Operation Handbook," and Glowy Conch x1,800 for achieving the designated operation score at every phase. This is enough to flip 20 tiles for free, which will clear the first board fully. To flip tiles on the second board, the player will be required to purchase Glowy Conches from the Mall or exchange S-Chips at a 1:1 exchange rate.

Summer Splash Event Shadow of Themis

During the event, the exclusive SSRs Artem "Ocean's Enchantment" and Vyn "Sunkissed Vacation" will be available for a limited time. A new SSR card from this Event Shadow of Themis is guaranteed within every 100 draws. The "one new SSR from Event Shadow of Themis within every 100 draws" guaranteed count will carry over to future Event Shadows of Themis that use Tears of Themis to obtain Visions, except birthday-limited Shadows of Themis.

This event will have a Vision discount function. Players can consume 8 Vision items to draw 10 cards at once. The Vision discount function can be used twice.

Trace of Tears x1 will be awarded for each pull on the Event-limited banner; the shop will be available in the Mall's Exchange tab as follows until Dec 15 04:00 UTC+9.
