Savage Overture: Your Guide to the Exciting Investigation Event
Alongside the highly anticipated "Tomorrow’s Catch-22" banner, the Savage Overture event has made its debut. This event is packed with exciting rewards and features a new mini-game for players to enjoy during its run. One of the standout aspects is that the storyline directly intertwines with the limited-time cards available in the Wish Pool.
As excitement builds around "Tomorrow’s Catch-22," many players have speculated about the impactful narrative direction of the game. Fortunately, you don’t have to acquire the special cards to grasp the full story; Savage Overture gives you all the details you need about the richly crafted world introduced in the new banner.
Event Schedule
Savage Overture runs from February 10 to February 27, 2025.
Engage in the Investigation
In Savage Overture, players will take on the role of an investigator tasked with interrogating five Love Interests, who each play a pivotal role in a case for the LCBI (Linkon City Bureau of Investigation). Each character’s storyline stands independently, allowing you to explore their arcs without any ties to the others.
As you proceed through the investigation, accumulating special event materials from the Activity Log and Supply Center is essential. These materials are necessary to advance your investigation and strengthen your Trust Level with the suspects during interrogations.
Activity Log
The Activity Log serves as your main resource for income and insights during this event. Completing various tasks will reward you with Mugshot Boards, which you can exchange for interrogation tools and other prizes in the Supply Center. Additionally, collecting Mugshot Boards will earn you Effect Suppressants, vital for unlocking event stages on the Classified Files screen.
Some activities will require daily participation, like completing the Daily Agenda or using 300 points of Stamina. Others will reward you for one-time achievements such as pulling event memories, viewing event stories, and completing mini-game challenges.
Supply Center
The Supply Center acts as the event’s shop where you can trade your earned Mugshot Boards for prizes and interrogation tools. Noteworthy items in the shop include 10 Deepspace Wish: Limited, usable in the Tomorrow’s Catch-22 pool, an Awakening Heart: SSR, a unique player outfit, and various necessary interrogation tools for your Secret Meetings.
Story Stages
The event features six story stages for each character, totaling thirty across all five. In each stage, you’ll uncover the connections the suspects have to your investigation. To access these stages, you must utilize Effect Suppressants, which will unlock roughly every two days.
Completing Secret Infiltration
The "Secret Infiltration" minigame challenges you to guide your suspects through an obstacle course to gather Curiosity Boxes, Evidence Boxes, and Classified Intel. The Evidence Boxes will unlock valuable information related to your investigation. However, be cautious; not all files pertain to every suspect.
The controls are straightforward; use the arrow buttons at the bottom of the screen to maneuver your character through the obstacles. Your aim should be to collect as many boxes as possible and complete the course before the timer runs out. Watch out for traps like red lasers that can end your run.
Trust Level Dynamics
Building Trust Levels with your suspects is crucial for successful interrogations. As you present new evidence during the interrogations, their trust in you will grow, increasing the intel you receive. However, you can’t use all materials immediately; some Trust Levels unlock on specific days, requiring you to be patient as you build connections.
Tools of the Trade
Different interrogation tools will yield varied responses from the suspects. Each tool requires only a single unlock for it to be used across all suspects. This means you will need to familiarize yourself with their unique reactions to each tool.
Current and Upcoming Events
With the beginning of Savage Overture, many existing events have been scaled back. The highly favored Illusio event, for example, has been extended for an additional month due to its popularity. In Illusio, you can revisit any Kindled memory while using custom outfits, ending on February 28.
Significant upcoming events include the limited Tomorrow’s Catch-22 Wish Pool, active until February 26, which offers improved chances of acquiring five limited-time alternate universe memories. Additionally, the Lanternet Gift event will provide log-in rewards, including 300 Diamonds and 2,400 Chocolates, ending on February 19.
