In brief

Neverness to Everness offers a fun and strategic shoplifting mini-game that takes place in stores like DSD Pop and convenience stores. Spot the red-bordered items, trigger the mini-game, and sneak away before staff notice you, using clever strategies and knowledge of the best shops.

In Neverness to Everness, shoplifting is a fun activity that intrigues many players. In this guide, we present the various aspects of this mini-game.

The shoplifting mini-game

Shoplifting in NTE mostly takes place in shops such as DSD Pop and convenience stores. You need to spot items with a red outline indicating that they can be stolen. As soon as you interact with these items, a mini-game begins, where staying discreet is essential.

Winning strategies

Faced with various choices, favor the options that seem calm and reassuring to you. The employees' interest in shop theft is more noticeable, which can harm your operation, because once you've picked up an item, a horned emoji symbol appears above your head, a sign that you need to flee as quickly as possible. So position yourself as close as possible to the exit so you can escape quickly.

Taking advantage of system loopholes

You can sometimes take advantage of loopholes in the game system: for example, once spotted, you have to go pay for the stolen item at full price at the checkout. But in the meantime, if you navigate your map, you can teleport to another location with the stolen item!

Tip

Stolen items reappear after a certain amount of time, allowing you to steal them again.

The best shops to steal from

Not all shops are equal when it comes to shoplifting, here are a few recommendations:

DSD Pop shops

These are shops particularly favored for shoplifting, due to the variety of items on display there, which are often quite accessible, and with relatively distracted staff.

Convenience stores

Convenience stores are also good opportunities, but you need to stay alert, because the staff is nonetheless much more vigilant.

Which store is the best for shoplifting?
