NTE Neverness to Everness Lonely Player is an Anomaly Commission in Illusion Town. It’s an elaborate task that requires you to find eight Wandering Puppets and complete their mini-games.
Let’s see what you must do to solve it!
Neverness to Everness Lonely Player Anomaly Commission Preparation NTE
In preparation for the NTE Lonely Player anomaly, you need to complete three side tasks:
- Collect the Empathy Eye Drops.
- Collect the Cheese camera.
- Collect Peepy’s Sunglasses.
Preparation Step 1- Get the Empathy Eye Drops
Interact with the Student Who Lost Their Diary and agree to help them find their journal.

After using the eye drops three times, turn left and head towards the tree to find the diary. Return to the student and collect the Empathy Eye Drops as a reward.

Neverness to Everness Lonely Player Anomaly Preparation Step 2 – Get the Cheese Camera
Interact with the Irritated Student and agree to show them the way to the Occult Club.

Head right and enter the building. Lead the Irritated Student to the Occult Club (fourth room on the right) and talk to them.

Enter the Occult Club room, interact with the Occult Club Student, and ask them about Cheese.

After the first interaction, you have to find the Occult Club Student again in three locations and answer three questions.
Occult Club Student Location 1

Find the student at the sports field and choose the “Time Stop” answer when prompted.
Occult Club Student Location 2

The student is on the roof of the building. Simply climb the outside wall to reach the location. Ask about Cheese and give the “Control small Oddities” answer when prompted.
Occult Club Student Location 3

Find the student at the basketball court, ask about Cheese, and select the “Don’t use it, work harder on our own” answer. Collect the Cheese camera as a reward.
Don’t forget to return to the location where you first met the Irritated Student and interact with the Guide. Choose the Lost Student option and complete the interaction. This has nothing to do with the NTE Lonely Player Anomaly, but you might as well complete this side activity.
Lonely Player Anomaly Preparation Step 3 – Get Peepy’s Sunglasses
Peepy will help you win a Neverness to Everness Lonely Player mini-game, but to secure their help, you must first interact with Peepy in five locations and obtain Peepy’s Sunglasses.
Peepy Location 1

Approach the wall in the southwestern part of the school area and interact with the crack in the wall. Knock three times and then leave.
Peepy Location 2

Head to the second location and interact with the crack in the wall. Knock three times and then leave.
Peepy Location 3

Go to the third location and repeat the process.
Peepy Location 4

The fourth location is close to the third. Go up the stairs and reach the rooftop. Move towards the next building and notice the crack in the wall next to the building entrance. Knock three times and leave.
Peepy Location 5

Enter the building on the right, go to the third floor, and enter the classroom on the left. Interact with the cracked wall and knock three times. Complete the dialogue with Peepy and obtain Peepy’s Sunglasses.
NTE Lonely Player Anomaly Commission Guide
After completing the preliminary tasks, you can start playing the Neverness to Everness Lonely Player anomaly mini-games. The eight Wandering Puppets appear between 8 PM and 6 AM. Keep this in mind when completing their mini-games. A mini-game may fail if it’s past a puppet’s spawning time. You must complete each puppet’s game to invite it.
Wandering Puppet 1 – Catch the Puppet at the Basketball Court

The Wandering Puppet is at the basketball court. As soon as you approach it, the puppet will disappear and you will start levitating. Chase it around the basketball court three times and invite it.

Make sure to hit the Invite prompt as soon as possible. The puppet always spawns in the same three locations.
NTE Lonely Player Wandering Puppet 2 – Win a Race Against the Puppet

Approach the puppet and start the race. Turn the camera so the puppet is always in your line of sight.

There will be a line of puppets just before the finish line, so move to the leftmost lane to avoid them. Interact with the puppet after you cross the finish line to invite it.
Wandering Puppet 3 – Spot the Puppet in the Gym

Use the Empathy Eye Drops outside the gym entrance and you will see five puppets. Attack the empty space to reveal a puppet standing in the door frame. To invite this puppet, you must attack it in five locations to reveal it. Use the Empathy Eye Drop to see from its point of view, helping you determine its location.
The five locations are:
- Near the balls, close to the net.
- Between the green door and the net.
- On the walkway. Use the ladder to reach this location.
- On the stage.
- In front of the net.

Interact with the puppet in the fifth location to invite it.
Neverness to Everness Lonely Player Wandering Puppet 4 – Catch the Invisible Puppet in the Park

The puppet is in the same location where you found the diary for the Empathy Eye Drops. As soon as you reach the puppet, it turns invisible and walks away. To easily complete this Neverness to Everness Lonely Player mini-game, dash towards the puppet. If you are quick enough, you can invite it before it disappears. If you miss it, check the ground for footprints and follow them. You can also hear its footsteps.
Wandering Puppet 5 – Win the Cups Mini-Game

Go to Peepy’s fifth location and interact with the puppet to start the mini-game. After the cups switch positions, interact with the cracked wall and ask Peepy for help. You must win the NTE Lonely Player anomaly cup game three times. Once a new round begins, ask Peepy where the ball is and a pointer will show you the ball’s location. Keep in mind that the ball is not always under one of the cups on the table in front of the puppet, so make sure to look around the room. After three correct guesses, approach the puppet and invite it.
Neverness to Everness Lonely Player Wandering Puppet 6 – Find the Miniature Puppet

Spot the puppet in the hallway and go towards it. The puppet disappears and reappears each time you get close, leading you to the classroom on the right at the end of the hallway. Enter and open the door at the back to go to the next room. To win this mini-game, you must find the miniature puppet in four locations in this room. Each time you spot a puppet, interact with it, and then open the door to reset the room. Search these locations to find the puppet:
- On a student’s desk.
- The open cabinet.
- Open the cabinet door.
- Attack the vase to reveal a puppet.

After finding all four miniatures, open the door once more, and you will be able to invite the puppet.
Wandering Puppet 7 – Take a Picture With the Cheese Camera

Enter the building and spot the puppet standing in the hallway. As soon as you get close, the puppet crumbles. Use the Cheese camera and a second puppet will appear on the floor. Interact with the second puppet and invite it.

Lonely Player Wandering Puppet 8 – Play the Piano

Enter the building where you found Wandering Puppet 7 and go to the third floor. Enter the first classroom on the left. You will start hearing a tune and see the puppet playing the piano. To win this mini-game, you must play the same tune as the puppet three times. Press these piano keys to replicate the melody:
- First melody: 4, 10, 8, 6, 1, 10, 7, 5.
- Second melody: 1, 5, 10, 9, 10, 5, 10, 5, 1, 5, 10, 9, 10, 5, 10, 5.
- Third melody: 8, 7, 5, 7, 8, 7, 5, 8, 7, 5.
Don’t forget to press ok after each melody. After playing the three melodies, you can invite the puppet.
Once you have invited all eight puppets, enter the building, and interact with the puppets on the stage.

Finally, interact with the puppet sitting on the chair to complete the Neverness to Everness Lonely Player anomaly.
