Follow this guide to acquire the Player Cartridge in MiSide's Core Room. Learn how to power up the portal machine, find essential items, and navigate the virtual world.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Interact with the phone on the desk, check the message, and download the app.
  2. 2
    Help Mita with her tasks: pick up laundry, cook soup (drag slider to cut veggies), and earn 450 by playing minigames to buy a portable TV.
  3. 3
    Find Mita's hairbrush in the kitchen cabinet beside the dining table. Avoid looking in the oven to keep options open for later.
  4. 4
    Move the wardrobe in Mita's room by clicking the blinking grid space.
  5. 5
    After the day changes, give Mita a present. You will then be pulled into the game.
  6. 6
    Enter the bedroom and find the portal machine. Press the blinking red button to power it up.
  7. 7
    Locate the three required items for the scanner: Bowknot (bathroom sink counter), Pencil (bedroom side cabinet or desk), and Spoon (kitchen near sink or on table). Locations may vary.
  8. 8
    Place the items on the scanner and press the blinking red button on the left to scan them.
  9. 9
    Press the power button again and stand on the portal pad.
  10. 10
    Exit the room to the left and go to the front door. Interact with the fuse box to the right of the door to restore power.
  11. 11
    Return to the portal console. Find the four missing batteries: Battery 1 (bathroom cabinet beside sink), Battery 2 (kitchen counter near sink), Battery 3 (living room in front of radio), and Battery 4 (kitchen fridge).
  12. 12
    Note: After picking up Battery 4 from the fridge, pick up the fallen magnets and place them back on the fridge.
  13. 13
    Place the four batteries into the machine at the indicated blinking red light locations (under the TV, under the right side of the console, center of the console, and right side of the console).
  14. 14
    Press the power button again and stand on the portal pad. The machine should now work, but you will still be in the virtual world.
  15. 15
    Walk towards the bathroom door. When you find you cannot enter, turn around to see Mita appear.
Tips
  • Looking in the oven for the hairbrush will affect a later choice, but is fine on a first playthrough.
  • Item and battery locations can be randomized.
  • Ensure Mita's energy is sufficient before starting minigames.
