Overview

Glitch is the hacker in Glitch's Den, reached from the Future Fringe Zone's Unregistered Housing. Her current route has seven personal story encounters, three heart-to-hearts, two dates, four skill lessons and an army recruitment milestone. She also has a separate progression track in Kupie's Love Training.

Quick Stats

Attribute Value
Age / era / alignment 24 / Future / Neutral
Regular location Glitch's Den, all day, every game day
Favorite stats Intelligence 50; Technology 60; Rogue 45
Special relationship skill System Hacking
Favorite gift Chocolate
Talk 15 minutes; 1 base point; five per day
Chocolate Known; 10 minutes; one Chocolate; 4 base points; twice per day
Army recruitment Permission to Disconnect
Favorite thresholds improve the shared relationship multiplier, and System Hacking doubles it. Listed relationship rewards are base affection unless stated as final. Kupie affection, main-game affection and NPC intimacy experience are separate values.

First Meeting and Early Progress

  1. Complete Story Beat 21. In Unregistered Housing, choose Visit Glitch's Den. The travel action takes zero minutes and is hidden until that previous story beat is complete.
  2. Enter the Den at any hour for Story Beat 22, which gives 10 base Glitch affection.
  3. Story Beat 22 completion teaches System Hacking if you do not already know it, adds Technology +5, advances 18 hours, then sets energy, calm and satiation to 10. Plan recovery supplies and rest around this first meeting. There is no separate lesson fee for that story reward.
  4. Use Talk to Glitch, up to five per game day, for 15 minutes and 1 base point each. At Known, use Give Chocolate, consuming one Chocolate for 4 base points, up to twice per game day. The handler uses that fixed four-point base value.
  5. Continue the main story through Story Beat 66 to open her later personal route. High affection alone does not replace this story prerequisite.
Talk and Chocolate use separate daily counters. Beyond their respective limits, the handlers record −1 base points with the shared over-limit handling. The Den has no ordinary closing time, but H2Hs and dates have their own start windows.

Skill Lessons

All four lessons start at Glitch's Den, at Known or higher. Each costs 180 minutes, $300, 60 energy and 40 calm, teaches its named skill and gives 10 base Glitch affection through the shared lesson handler. Each is hidden once the player knows that skill.
Lesson Additional stat requirement
Networking Charm 15
Automated Systems Intelligence 25
AI Programming Technology 28
Quantum Computing Technology 30
System Hacking is her relationship bonus skill, separate from these four lessons. Her first story meeting already teaches it. An alternative ordinary lesson exists at the Present University's Computer Lab, requiring Technology 30, for 220 minutes, $350, 60 energy and 60 calm; do not confuse that paid lesson with the story's free skill reward.

Personal Quest Walkthrough

Every scene below is one-time and automatic at Glitch's Den, at any hour. Enter the Den after meeting its prerequisite; ordinary Talk does not substitute for these story encounters. The table gives best answer types without describing the scenes' major revelations.
Scene Requirements Scene base reward Best answer type Choice bonus Best base total
Already Connected Glitch: Acknowledged+; Story Beat 66 completed 16 Caring 5 21
Red Team of One Glitch: Known+; Already Connected completed 18 Caring or flirty 5 23
The Classroom That Never Closed Glitch: Acquaintance+; Red Team of One completed 22 Caring or flirty 5 27
The Trace Runs Both Ways Glitch: Acquaintance+; The Classroom That Never Closed completed 25 Caring or flirty 5 30
Permission to Disconnect Glitch: Friend+; The Trace Runs Both Ways completed; The Camera She Chose completed 30 Caring or flirty 5 35
The Person Behind the Alert Glitch: Close Friend+; Permission to Disconnect completed; When the Channel Is Quiet completed 35 Caring or flirty 5 40
Mutual Authentication Glitch: Crush+; The Person Behind the Alert completed; No Diagnostic for This completed 40 Caring or flirty 6 46


Follow this interleaved order:
  1. After Story Beat 66, reach Acknowledged and complete Already Connected.
  2. At Known, complete Red Team of One.
  3. At Acquaintance, complete The Classroom That Never Closed, then The Trace Runs Both Ways.
  4. At Friend, complete The Camera She Chose H2H, then return to the Den for Permission to Disconnect. This scene recruits Glitch to the resistance army through its completion handler.
  5. At Close Friend, complete When the Channel Is Quiet H2H, then The Person Behind the Alert.
  6. At Crush, complete No Diagnostic for This H2H, then Mutual Authentication.
The two dates are optional branches alongside this order. Their completion flags are not required for the seven personal quest scenes or army recruitment. Recruitment does not remove Glitch's ordinary Den portrait.

Personal Heart-to-Hearts

All three start from Glitch's Den portrait, complete once, and cost 60 minutes and 15 energy, with no money payment. When the Channel Is Quiet also restores 10 calm.
Conversation Relationship / prior progress Start window Best base total
The Camera She Chose Friend; The Trace Runs Both Ways completed 10 AM–10 PM 69
When the Channel Is Quiet Close Friend; Permission to Disconnect and The Camera She Chose H2H completed 6–11 PM 79
No Diagnostic for This Crush; The Person Behind the Alert and When the Channel Is Quiet H2H completed 8–11 PM 92

The Camera She Chose

Round Highest base-point choice Base points
1 Control matters more when somebody else once claimed it. 11
2 Care without consent is surveillance with better branding. 13
3 A person can stay close and still respect where the door is. 14
4 We can make it, review it together, and delete it whenever you want. 15
5 Voluntarily here, and honored to be approved. 16


When the Channel Is Quiet

Round Highest base-point choice Base points
1 I will keep the hour with you. The world can manage itself. 13
2 Safety can be real and still become lonely. 15
3 Connection made the silence mean something different. 16
4 You do not have to make the feeling efficient to let it be true. 17
5 Message received. I want the quiet hours with you too. 18


No Diagnostic for This

Round Highest base-point choice Base points
1 Maybe this is something you get to say instead of prove. 15
2 You are allowed to want something before uncertainty disappears. 17
3 I want you to kiss me, Glitch. 19
4 Come closer. 20
5 Then kiss me again without trying to solve it. 21


Heart-to-heart choice points accumulate and use the shared relationship calculation at completion. The listed points are base values, not guaranteed final affection gains.
No special stat or skill choices are needed for these best totals. No Diagnostic for This round 5 records 5 Glitch NPC intimacy experience for kissing. These H2Hs have no configured player Erotic-experience reward. With the player's Romantic skill, the shared H2H system adds 25 final affection points after the relationship calculation.

Dates

Both dates start from Glitch's Den portrait and require Adventure Tier+ paid access. Each completes once. The menu names differ from the registered plot titles:
Menu action / scene Prerequisites Start window Cost / calm effect Best base total
Beyond the Coverage Map / Outside the Coverage Map Friend; Permission to Disconnect completed; The Camera She Chose H2H completed noon–4 PM 120 minutes; $100; 30 energy; calm +10 26: 10 base + 5 + 5 + 6
An Unlogged Memory / A Memory That Was Not Logged Close Friend; The Person Behind the Alert completed; When the Channel Is Quiet H2H completed 6–10 PM 120 minutes; $150; 35 energy; calm −10 30: 12 base + 6 + 6 + 6
For Beyond the Coverage Map, best answers are Caring or Flirty → Caring or Funny → Caring or Flirty. A complete Caring path asks to share the watch, lets her choose something pleasant, then stands beside her for the view.
For An Unlogged Memory, choose Caring → Flirty → Caring or Flirty. The first answer says the arcade should learn nothing; the second takes her hand for coordination; finish by naming one remembered detail or asking to spend the last minute close together.
The two dates do not require each other completed. They are plot dates, so the H2H Romantic completion bonus does not apply.

Kupie's Love Training

This optional track is separate from Glitch's Den route. Enter Kupie's Love Training from the Present home's Attic; the entry action has zero game-time cost.
To select Glitch, meet all three requirements: Glitch Friend in the main game, Ghost level 3 in Kupie's minigame, and the Adventure Tier+ paid Kupie roster unlocked. Ghost's Kupie level is not her ordinary affection stage.
Within Kupie, progress from level 1 through level 10 by completing all four displayed requirements at each level: collect the minigame's affection and confirm it, spend the required Hearts, spend the required Charms, and give the required inventory gift. Main-game affection does not pay the Kupie affection requirement. Clicking and timed production build the minigame values; they are not additional ordinary Den Talks.
Level transition Kupie affection to confirm Hearts spent Charms spent Gift consumed
1 → 2 16,000 1,600 3,200 1 Chocolate
2 → 3 48,000 3,200 6,400 1 Book
3 → 4 192,000 9,600 19,200 1 Focus
4 → 5 960,000 38,400 76,800 2 Chocolate
5 → 6 5,760,000 192,000 384,000 2 Book
6 → 7 40,320,000 1,152,000 2,304,000 1 Time
7 → 8 322,560,000 8,064,000 16,128,000 3 Chocolate
8 → 9 2,903,040,000 64,512,000 129,024,000 2 Focus
9 → 10 29,030,400,000 580,608,000 1,161,216,000 2 Jewelry


The gifts are consumed from the player's ordinary consumable inventory, including Focus and Time. Each new level resets its four progress confirmations; do not repeatedly press a paid requirement already marked completed.
Glitch Kupie level Scene reward
3 Dance-platform date narration
6 Night-market light-wall date narration
9 Hot-spring date narration
10 Dedicated looping animated reward
View unlocked scenes from her minigame reward controls. Viewing records them for EXTRAS; replaying them does not add ordinary affection or player Erotic experience. Separately, claim her level 3, 5 and 8 achievements for one Sylph each, and Glitch Maxed at level 10 for the Emergency Phase Beacon army item.

Current Route Boundaries and Troubleshooting

Glitch's current portrait menu has no apartment/private-time visit, ordinary repeatable intimate-video action, optional pregnancy branch or Rose & Thorn worker recruitment. Her H2Hs, dates, automatic story scenes and Kupie rewards cover her authored current interactions.
* The Den travel action is missing: complete Story Beat 21, then check Unregistered Housing.
* The later route will not begin: complete Story Beat 66 and reach at least Acknowledged.
* Permission to Disconnect is missing: complete The Trace Runs Both Ways and The Camera She Chose H2H, reach Friend, then re-enter the Den.
* The Person Behind the Alert is missing: finish When the Channel Is Quiet H2H and reach Close Friend.
* Mutual Authentication is missing: complete No Diagnostic for This H2H and reach Crush.
* A date button is missing: check its exact H2H, quest flag, paid access, clock window and one-time completion state.
* Glitch is locked in Kupie: check her main-game Friend stage, Ghost's minigame level 3, and paid roster access; main-story army recruitment is not an additional Kupie selection prerequisite.
