Mystic Messenger Casual and Deep story common routes chat times schedule
This Mystic Messenger guide page is designed to help you get into the character route of your choice with plenty of emails, without giving you any spoilers.
It provides you with the chat times for the common route days (Prologue through Day 4) and lists the characters whose affection you can raise by participating in each. It also shows opportunities to invite guests to parties, which begin on Day 2 of Mystic Messenger and lead to email exchanges.
Ideally you will want to action every chat during your waking hours, but if you can’t be checking Mystic Messenger nine times a day this page will at least show which ones you should definitely show up to.
For example, if you want to end up on Zen’s route, you’ll definitely want to ensure you participate in any chat where he is the only character listed, and to a lesser extent, any chat in which he is one of two participants. It’s okay to earn hearts from other characters as well – just try to spread them around whenever you get the chance, so you don’t end up with a higher affection rating from a character you’re not necessarily after.
Remember to keep your ultimate goal in mind: you’ll need plenty of guests at the party if you want a good ending! If you need more help than this page provides, check out our Mystic Messenger guide hub. We're adding each individual character's full Mystic Messenger Day 1, 2, 3 and 4 walkthroughs one by one.
As for what's next: once you complete Day 4 you’ll (hopefully) be locked into a specific route, and every chat can potentially will earn you favour with the object of your affections. Check each Mystic Messengers character’s individual route chat schedule for Days 5 through 10 (no spoilers!) if you want to plan your day. Alternatively, check out our full Mystic Messenger character route walkthroughs for total guidance specific to endings for each character. Again, we're adding these as we write them.
Just one more time for emphasis, you don’t need to action every chat to get a good ending, even when you’re chasing a specific route. Mystic Messenger wants you to get some sleep.
