Owner's Selection Mini-Game Guide

Owner's Selection Mini-game guide for NTE (Neverness to Everness). See what the Owner's Selection minigame is, tips for clearing the stages, and a complete cafe menu list.

What Is Owner's Selection?

Serve Dishes to Earn Fons

The NTE cafe mini-game, Owner's Selection, is a mini-game where you use the ingredients and equipment around you to prepare and serve products based on customer orders. Clearing stages rewards you with Fons.

Start from the Shop Counter

This mini-game starts by directly interacting with the counter inside your own cafe. Since you can challenge it anytime once you know the location, it works well as part of your daily routine or as an easy way to earn extra money during downtime.

Consume City Stamina to Earn Rewards

Each stage has three objectives (stars) called "Sales Target Achieved." Each star earned consumes "City Stamina," and you can earn 2,000 Fons per star (up to 6,000 Fons total).

City Stamina Is Used for Earning Fons

"City Stamina" used for rewards is a dedicated weekly stamina resource for earning Fons. Even if your stamina runs low, rewards will still be calculated and paid out based on your remaining amount.

Earn Annulith Based on Total Stars

You can earn Annulith based on the total number of stars collected from all stages. You receive 20 Annulith for every 3 stars, so aim for a full clear on every stage.

Tips for Clearing Owner's Selection

Assign Support Employees

Before starting the mini-game, you can assign up to 3 characters from your roster as "Support Employees". If unlocked, each character’s Life Skill will activate and make clearing stages much easier.

Skills That Automate Tasks Are Recommended

Task automation skills are especially strong, such as Adler's ability to "automatically brew coffee." Since fewer manual steps are needed, the difficulty of clearing objectives like full combos or time attacks becomes much lower.

Hot Picks Employees
Adler	Recommendation: ★★★★★ During "Owner's Selection," automatically brews coffee.
Sakiri	Recommendation: ★★★★★ During "Owner's Selection," Kiroumaru attacks and drives away Danzaburou who appears as a customer.
Skia	Recommendation: ★★★★☆ During "Owner's Selection," increases customer patience by +50%.
Chiz	Recommendation: ★★★★☆ Each time a menu item is served correctly, the unit price of that menu item increases.
Baicang	Recommendation: ★★★★☆ Combos will not break even if patience runs out or a customer is hit with a hammer.
Nanally	Recommendation: ★★★★☆ Earns 115% of the menu unit price when hitting with the hammer.
Daffodill	Recommendation: ★★★☆☆ Increases the chance of customers choosing the most expensive menu item.
Mint	Recommendation: ★★★☆☆ Earns bonus tips with each combo, up to 5 times.
Aurelia	Recommendation: ★★★☆☆ Earns additional tips when a customer leaves.
Edgar	Recommendation: ★★☆☆☆ No special Life Skill for Owner's Selection
Haniel	Recommendation: ★★☆☆☆ No special Life Skill for Owner's Selection

Memorize Ingredient Combinations

Each menu item has a fixed combination of base ingredients and toppings. Trying to figure out the recipe after receiving an order causes a major time loss, so it is important to memorize the required ingredient combinations in advance.

Drive Away the Disguised Danzaburou

A Customer wearing a red scarf is Danzaburou in disguise. Use the hammer icon on the left side of the screen to quickly hit them and drive them away.

If You Hit the Wrong Customer

If you hit a regular customer with the hammer and drive them away, unless you have a special Life Skill like Nanally's, you will receive no reward, and your combo will also break. Make sure to correctly identify Danzaburou before using the hammer.

Prepare Base Ingredients in Advance

Every finished product requires base ingredients that must be prepared in advance. Waiting until an order is placed will waste valuable time, so it is important to prepare ingredients during downtime whenever possible.

Keep the 4 Base Ingredients Stocked

Coffee, muffins, croissants, and toast all require a brewing, baking, or cutting process. To respond to any order immediately, make sure these 4 base ingredients are always stocked.

Exit Mid-Game After Earning 3 Stars to Save Time

After completing all objectives shown in the upper right and earning 3 stars, there are no extra rewards for increasing your score further. By ending the mini-game immediately using the exit button in the upper left, you can avoid wasting extra time.

Rewards Are Still Granted After Exiting

Even if you leave mid-game, rewards will still be properly calculated based on your progress at that point (number of stars).

How to Clear All 3-Star Goals

Take Advantage of Baicang Life Skill

First step is to have Baicang's Life Skill reach Level 3. This will keep combos going even when customers lose patience or get hit by hammers.

Best Team Comp for Hammer Cafe

Baicang

Nanally

Mint

To maximize profits, include Nanally and Mint in your lineup and raise their Life Skills to Level 3.

Nanally’s Level 3 Life Skill increases the amount of money earned after striking customers with the hammer, while Mint’s Level 3 Life Skill boosts tip income for each combo performed, stacking up to 5 times per combo.
