The Tears of Themis Revisiting Youth event runs from August 24, 2022, to September 14, 2022. The main highlight of this event is a dice board game, which takes you and your date-of-choice around Stellis High School's Campus Open House. You can change partners anytime to receive different upgrade items and see different cutscenes.
Understanding how the board game works will help you optimize your gameplay to maximize rewards and not miss any important landmarks. You can access the dice event by clicking on the Revisiting Youth icon above the X-Note. The board game can initially be a bit overwhelming, so here's a breakdown of the gameplay mechanics.
Dice
Click on the dice at the bottom of the screen to roll a number from one to six, determining the number of steps you take. You will naturally recover one die every hour.
Cells
You can land on various cells, and each will result in a different task, reward, debate, or riddle.
- Riddle Cell: DAVIS will ask you a question and grant you Wishing Coins for correctly answering it.
- Gift Cell: You will receive a reward—usually upgrade materials.
- Job Cell: You will receive an Investigation task, which usually involves stopping on a Riddle Cell within the specified number of turns.
- Wealth Cell: You will receive Wishing Coins.
- Supply Cell: You will receive one die.
- Multiplier Cell: You will receive a buff that will increase your rewards by stepping on a certain number of cells. This can increase the rate for obtaining Wishing Coins, gifts, and more.
- Luck Cell: You can select one of two random items that can help you play the board game.
You can use wishing Coins to redeem several items in the event exchange shop, such as upgrade materials, Home Deco Vouchers, Selection Stars, and more.

Items
You can collect various items by completing tasks and obtaining them from reward cells. These are very useful for helping you progress through the game board.
- Greeting Card: Grants you 10,000 Stellin.
- Rollerblades: Move 10 steps.
- Buttercream Decorations: Levels up the Celebratory Cake.
- Game Challenge Voucher: Summons school staff in a nearby cell.
- Penguin Slippers: Activates the next five cells that you pass through.
- Loaded Dice: Allows you to choose the number of steps to take from one to six. It doesn't consume any regular die rolls.
It's highly recommended to save some critical items, like the Loaded Dice, for completing tasks or reaching Teleport Points. You can use these items anytime.
Teleport Point
Apart from the above cells, you may also encounter a cell that looks like a purple portal, which signifies the position of the Teleport Point. It's highly recommended to always land on a Teleport Point with the help of items, as it will transport you to the Classroom Cafe, where you can encounter a second board containing all Gift, Supply, Wealth cells, or a combination of the three, plus Multiplier cells.
The counter on the upper left of the board game will tell you how many more steps you need to take for a Teleport Point to spawn. The first Teleport Point will spawn at 100 steps, while the other five will spawn at 200 steps each.
You can only enter six Teleport Points throughout the event, and successfully doing so will reward you with an event badge.
Special NPCs
There are three types of people that you can encounter in random cells around the game board:
- Mavic
- The president
- The principal
Mavic will grant you up to 36 Wishing Coins based on the amount of damage you deal during the debate.
Meanwhile, defeating the president in a debate will grant you S-Chips, depending on the difficulty level. If you fail to defeat him, you can chase him around and keep trying until you succeed.
Difficulty | HP | Recommended Power | S-Chip Reward |
Easy | 35,500 | 38,833 | 24 |
Normal | 99,300 | 112,978 | 36 |
Hard | 114,200 | 151,697 | 48 |
The third Event Staff is the principal, who will ask you a question with no correct answer. Answer anything to receive a random item reward.
