Mystic Messenger Timeline (Explained)

I'll be obviously skipping a lot of stuff in between, but this is just to make things clear. It's not the way you're supposed to play, just the timeline.

⚠️ Contains Spoilers ⚠️

⚠️⚠️ Spoilers ahead ⚠️⚠️

⚠️⚠️ You've been warned ⚠️⚠️

First Rika Behind the Story (DLC)

Then I'll start counting as Year 1, the events that lead to the RFA and Mint Eye foundation.

Year 1:

V and Rika know each other

They meet Saeyoung

Saeyoung leaves

Rika kills the Twins's mom

Rika gets engaged to V

Mika and Rika (Mina) create 1st draft of Mint Eye

V buys the department

*on that note, seems that there are 4 cameras but Saeyoung only knows of one*

**This also implies that Saeran was abused as soon as V and Saeyoung took their eyes off of him since Rika used Saeran as model to defeat Saeyoung's skills as a hacker.

***What happens because neither Saeyoung nor V know anything about Saeran whenever they reunite for RFA parties and their engagement? Why no one asked anything?

Year 2:

Rika meets Jumin

RFA begins (yes, it was Mint Eye first, and the reason why the name was Magenta first. Mika?) June's Route in The Ssum, First Season. According to Jumin.

The Ssum Timeline

3. RFA 1st party is held

4 Jaehee joins RFA

5. Rika kills Sally

5. RFA 2nd party is held

6. According to V and Saeyoung this is where the hacker starts attacking the RFA (first time)

7. Jumin said he lost contact with V and Rika after the 2nd party.

There's a point where Jumin admits barely seeing Rika after the 2nd party. Meeting with her and V for the last time 3 months before her death. Yoosung Route. Day 9. Chat room 7AM called V's eyes.

According to several chats during Yoosung route, they barely paid attention to V being blinded. This of course included Zen, Yoosung, and Jumin (who is worried and suspects something but doesn't intervene despite V having severe corneal damage from external trauma)

8. Rika must have blind V at some point during these three months.

9. Saeyoung installed the Special System. AKA: The Bomb

10. "Rika commits suicide"

Plot holes: Where's Mika? Why they don't notice there's another person living there? It's not that easy to hide your presence 💀

But according to V, he knew about Mika. It's at least implied.

*At the same time, there's a line, I forgot where exactly, that says that both, Rika and V called off their engagement at some point. They don't say anything about coming back together after that. wtf!?*

Another Story

1 month after her death, prologue.

Five months later

*means 4 months after they break up their engagement? Assuming they did not break up before but because of Rika behavior blinding him. Which kind of solves the plot holes from Year 1 setting Mika on the apartment and V not fully knowing but suspecting, although it would be impossible or almost impossible without his eyes do something about it. Especially since his blindness is recent. If you need to understand a bit more about blindness watch my post on Rika killing Sally. It may be a dog, unlike V lol but it's still enough information to set up the rest of the story.

Anyways, let's go back to our timeline no?

Bad ending prologue #1 (Casual & Deep) and #2 (Another) are part of the same story and unlikely that it is set into an *alternative route* like some people like to say. Bad ending prologues even from Another Story seem to fit almost too perfectly when you think about it, but only if you agree to go with Unknown after rejecting him several times.

Because it would fit into the idea that the MC's were captured by the cult and discarded after a while (or put to work under Mint Eye. But also because according to the opening on the Casual and Deep, it would mean that Saeran's been watching you, so does Saeyoung.)

As I said before, the other MC's are either dead or anything but MIA (whatever that means for Mint Eye?) and this one, the brunette, is selected and it's the only one who survives and passed the whole trial. Not at first but it doesn't matter. This MC is not dead. The others are. You think "The others" are just the player with different image? I've got news for you, each one of this has a number~ check this post ^^

Either you become the assistant of Unknown with that bad ending which is an option available for every prologue or you enter Day 1 to Day 4 of Another Story and play throughout to reach:

Day 6 and Day 10 from Ray/Saeran Route which are part of the same ending. They're not a different ending. Both however lead to the Casual Route, Day 1 (after the prologue)

Which means, if you get the bad ending in the prologue of Casual/Deep you'll be going back to Mint Eye. Yes. It's not supposed to be your first rodeo there. And if you have a Bad Ending on Mint Eye, you're brainwashed andd set on Casual/Deep (You're supposed to be an spy, but who do you work for? Are you a victim or a villainess? that's another story 😜)

My theory?

*This is where I'm still stuck, so I'll be fixing major plots here and there and editing this same post over and over until I get it right. Please bear with me 😭*

Rika DLC > 1st party > Rika gets engaged > Saeyoung leaves > Rika kills Sally > Rika kills Saeran's mom > Rika starts torturing Saeran > Mint Eye begins > 2nd party > Hacker attack > Bomb is installed > Rika blinds V > Rika dies > Another Story (prologue) > Another Story (Day 1 to 4) > Another Story (Day 6 & 10, bad relationship both of them) obviously with what causes these bad endings > Casual Route (with bad endings included) > Deep Story (with bad endings included) > Secret Endings (except for V dying, we'll get there) > Another Story again but V route happens first (no happy or normal ending) and then something weird happens:

And this part if I'm being honest, I have no idea but I'm fixing it cause my theory is that

V and Saeran's route become so intertwined that is almost impossible to know what happened.

The bomb on Mint Eye? Saeran? Although it is suggesting in the bad endings that he died, we never saw that to happen.

V dying in the secret endings?

Saeran burn?

Seven does mention a couple of numbers, associated with the other MCs, somewhere in the game. Unfortunately I can't remember if it's on a call or a chat so I'm going back all over again because I was so shocked at the time I was unable to take a screenshot.

Truth to be said I can't fully find the order rn but! I will, I definitely will. I need time. I mean, more time. I've been working on this for 6 to 7 years now, I'm posting this because it's so big I can't keep it to myself and I'm freaking out here. So I'll be editing this in the future. As many of my other posts. Sorry lol

Ironically, Saeran's AE would be indeed the Final Ending.

Additional Note: Because of time travel, Mystic Messenger is a non linear story, which means you need to pick upon clues here and there to understand where the timeline goes. The other games have a similar issue but not as pronounced as this.

[aro-thoughts]

If you get this, answer w/ three random facts about yourself and send it the last five blogs in your notifs. Anon or not, doesn’t matter, let’s get to know the person behind the blog <3

Hi!!! ^^

Aromanticism is one of my special interests yes, but ironically, my biggest special interest is a dating sim game, called Nameless ~ The One Thing You Must Recall ~ which was quite popular when it released, but is relatively unheard of now, at least compared to Cheritz's other games, Mystic Messenger and The Ssum. Ask me more about it on my main blog @smol-grey-tea :3 I'm so incredibly autistic about Cheritz and the fandom is so small- any chance I get, I will promote it <33333

I am an aspiring writer, and because I realised how annoying it is that I haven't finished a writing project since I was 13, I've challenged myself to finish my current project before the end of August, check out how I'm getting on at @lliinnkk ^^

Ummmmmmmm I guess I'd also like to write my own Guide to Aromanticism too some day? I don't think there's nearly enough aro content as there is for a lot of other identities, and a lot of 'aro guides' tend to just be tacked onto the end of ace guides. So an aro guide of my own is definitely on my list!!! Look out for that, Tumblr :)

Thank you for the ask!!!!!!! I've sent your message to 5 other people on anon, since this isn't my main :3

Doing a small review for June’s Observation Log on The Ssum by Cheritz!!

Please note that:

• I have not played Teo or Harry’s routes yet, June was my first ever match and plan to stick with him!!

• I am an extremely new player (only on Day 3 on him so far whilst writing this post) so please be aware that I don’t know much on how the routes go.

Onto the review!!!

June’s introduction:

When I got June as my match, I was unsure at first cause I usually don’t go for the first choice but said ‘why not?’ cause you never know with a character that was recommended to what you like! To be honest, I’m pleasantly surprised that I’m enjoying him so far!

Him being introduced as a person who’s been waiting for almost 2 years for their match, it’s enough to intrigue you as to why he’s been on this app for so long! Also having the description that he has a lot of secrets makes you curious to dive into what he’s been hiding from us.

June as a Character:

Personally, I love June’s personality. Always so polite and respectful yet also having that braveness when it comes to dealing with his mom, he’s such a baby boy 🥺

His excitement is conveyed extremely well through his texts, very expressive and carrying out that he’s high on this new relationship that has potential, it’s clear that he’s looking forward to a better relationship than his old one with his ex. His voice actor does an amazing job at voicing June, making him soft spoken and sincere in every word, keep up the amazing work!!

I also love the small bits at the bottom of the chat that give the small indications of his mannerisms when we’re waiting for a response from him, I thought that was a neat and cute way to show how much thought is put into the character!

Character Mysteries:

I’ve been wanting to look into more on June’s family background as he tends to brush off his mom cause it’s apparently very interesting so far, figuring out that Carolyn is Jumin’s mom as well which makes Jumin and June half-brothers!! A connection I never expected to say the least but it spices up the characters and ties into Mystic Messenger which gives the clue that we’re definitely from the same universe.

Also June’s biological dad not being supported by Carolyn? I wonder why he’s not more concerned about his dad but I’m guessing it’s cause he hasn’t been around much for June to get a close connection with to get a more expressive reaction when we talk about his dad.

Carolyn is also a mystery in of itself as she’s the only parental figure in his life and basically his caretaker, his life revolves around her but it also makes it relatable for me because of June’s experience with having an overbearing parent (which is borderlining on abuse) which has me worried for him :(

My overall thoughts:

I love June and I love his character so much, thank you @cheritzteam for making this special Ssum-one! He is a nice introduction to the game and would highly recommend picking him as your first ever route if people ever see this post lol. Thank you for reading this review and again, thank you for making June!!

LET'S TALK ABOUT CHERITZVERSE PART 2

"The 'magical' beings":

SPOILER ALERT!!!

Dandelion:

The Wizard: He is the more power being in all games. He is omnipresent and omniscient, he can do any wish come true trading your memories. Can travel in any dimension or time etc... But he can't come to our world in person. No one knows what he is even he doesn't know.

We also have all the pets with the power of shape-shifting and Jieun with his power to see the future.

NAMELESS:

All dolls are magical, all them have mystical powers like being alive even being dolls, they have a soul.

Yuri makes everyone fall for him

Yeonho has sensitive powers, can see spirits, can talk with animals, can see the future with cards and make the women feels very protective around him

Lance is very smart I guess :)

Tei can make people trust in him NO MATTER WHAT!!

Red can feel his owner feelings

Nameless is a living bear too. I guess he was alive. But how?

And to special mention SHINBI: She looks pretty sensitive like Yeonho.

(WHY WE CANT DATE HEEER?!)

MYSTIC MESSENGER:

Mysme looks like a very normal game until you realize ZEN CAN HAVE DREAMS THAT SHOWS THE FUTURE

BUUUT there are someone as powerful as wizard. THE MC!!! She can saw everything, read their minds, go back and go to the time, reset the game etc.

(Do your theories about her and send to my blog "@cheritzheadcanonz ")

AND SPECIAL MENTION TO THE TWINS!!!

Saeran wishes to be a Wizard in secret ending 2 and Seven and Him looks knows too much like they know nothing is real. Seven also said he was a Wizard. Who knows?

THE SSUM:

I tried playing, I'm sorry... I can't like it. So someone help me with that please.

We have Piu-Piu the AI. I don't think Piu-Piu is a simple AI.

There some people in those planets too. I don't know who they are, but their chibis are cute.

And some kind of being in Harry's route.

That's all I can remember!! So help me to share it and say if I did any mistake.

[marshmallowprotection]

Yknow it’s been years of me playing this game, I can’t play it a lot like I did in HS, I’m in college. But in college I’ll sometimes be able to spare 11 days to one characters route.

And it’s like I love MM, not just because of the romance, but bc the RFA is so found family? Like all the members have such devastating backstories, extremely complicated family situations, and different personalities that clash sometimes, but they’re a family 😭.

Doesn’t matter what route you prefer, I just know that after everything that happens, we’d all log into the chat room and talk about our lives or find time to get together. Bc even Separated, with everyone pursuing different dreams/goals they set for themselves, we’re still connected.

Off topic but I think that’s one of the reasons I find it difficult to commit to SSUM (besides spending money to get a full experience) since I got used to an entire set of characters talking to eachother along with MC throughout the day, everyday. That one on one convos sometimes in chatrooms but were mostly reserved in DMs and phone calls.

There is something special about this game, and it's really hard to shake that feeling from your heart when you get that warm and fuzzy sensation. These characters feel so tangible and real that you can't help but fall in love with them and want to be friends with them. I’m grateful that I’ve had the RFA in my life. I don't think I'd be the same person if it wasn't for being able to interact with them the way I have after all these years. In the same vein, I think it could be said just the same for them.

They wouldn't be who they are if it wasn't for their friendships with each other. 

It's been a while since I've had a game capture my attention much like this one has. I definitely play other dating sims but none of them hit like this one. I think it has to do with how much dedication to found family and supporting each other was put into it. You can't help but want to be a part of this found family once you see them in action. 

I'd like to believe that they're my family. I'm sure many people feel the same way. 

I don't care much for the SSUM, either. When I'm playing an Otome, I need something to hook me in that will drag me like a fish on a lure to its fishermen. Ignoring the pure money-grab aspect of the game that I've definitely shared my distaste for before, interacting with just one character doesn't pull in the same mystery. It's slow, but that's purely by choice since you've got to be committed to the game for over 200 days. I commend anyone who's been enjoying the SSUM and liking it as the story expands! But, it sure isn't meant for me.

Granted, the only reason I would continually want to play it would be to get Easter eggs about characters from Mystic Messenger. I don't think I could go through 180+ days of Teo to get to the point where the man is in Mint Eye to get my sprinkle of Ray crumbs. 

It isn't bad that you get to interact with the character one-on-one, but there's not a lot of story pull going on since you're just interacting with one person. It takes a long time for things to be revealed because you're getting to know him in a more realistic manner and that takes time. I tend to enjoy a suspension of reality when I'm playing these games because I want so much hitting me all at once. 

So, it isn't a game that would bring me any joy to play that much. If I'm only playing it to get Easter eggs, I do not have that much fun. Because you're supposed to be enjoying the content you're getting with the new character, and even if you get a Sprinkle of something from a previous game, you're still supposed to be immersed in what you're doing. But, that's just for me personally. I enjoy having a lot more characters to interact with and things to do with myself when I'm playing the game. 

[justyuuki]

Hello hello my cute little curious babies 👋🏻

I come to tell you about harry's route in the game "THE SSUM"

Harry's route is the favorite of most users, the calm and pleasant way to advance of this route, in addition to the process of knowing his past, his phobia and his true way of being.

What I'm about to tell you contains a LOT OF SPOILERS. So if you want to know this on your own, don't read on and enjoy the process.

First of all, use the time machine, but I try to play every day that the machine allowed me

Having said that, let's summarize the days 😉:

From day 1 to 35 we will know little about him, we will have knowledge of Big guy, his friends, Malong being the most involved in his life, we will know that he is a director and that he does not go anywhere without his mask.

Day 36 - 80, advance these days because here we will know how little he eats, the history of the piano in the bar, we know that he has contact with Teo the other love option of the game, but we will talk about him later. We will know the reason why he ran away from the film festival in the early days, Harry suffers, agoraphobia, what is it?

Agoraphobia: Symptoms include fear and the need to avoid places and situations that may cause feelings of panic, confinement, helplessness, or shame.

He doesn't like places with too many people, or being in contact with too many people

However, although Harry does not like people, he enjoys our company and it is something he expresses openly.

One detail I forgot and it is important, on day 35 the mc declares their feelings for Harry, however, he rejects us because he says that love relationships end and he doesn't want what we have to end just like that.

Day 81-100, from these days Harry is much more open with what he feels about us, he shows discomfort when we tell him that we know Teo and we talk to him, I want you to remember that Harry has never had a house, he spends it in hotels, and he is in an apartment, besides his emotional change is noticed by the people around him, he talks to his friends of MC, they know about the relationship we have, besides Harry gets a nice tattoo that we choose, since he constantly asks for our opinion.

Days 98,99 and 100 are important, the egg that PIU-PIU, has taken care of will be sent to a person to find his special person, but he shows us the coordinates, and the options we are given are:

-These coordinates, is it...?

-707?

To which PIU-PIU says that those are the coordinates for who that egg is for, so he doesn't know who it is for. And it's a nice coincidence, since these coordinates are for someone we already know, do you know who it is? 🤔✨

On day 100, Harry mentions that he is ready for the house he is going to build, in previous days he contacts an architect to finally have a house.

He shows us the plans and comes out with a basket that Malong made, since he lives with him because he is broke, he gives him a nice basket with a wine and some food, which later we know that actually Malong helped him because he told him that he celebrates something important, the 100th day of meeting MC and he declares himself, saying that the house he is going to build will be under the constellation of our zodiac sign, and it will be a place that only MC and him know.

He says that MC is the first person he thinks of when he wakes up, that his feelings are sweet. After this we have a call and he says he is sleepy, and that's the end of the day.

This is all I know so far and it makes you feel special, this route feels real, like with a real person, it's slow, personal, it's completely unique and sweet.

Thanks so much for reading, and tell me what you think, cute curious person. 💕✨

[mymiyonn]

Yo see, there is a new bf you should check in The Ssum. But anyway, I haven't tried to change my special ssum-one :) what will happen after you change it from Teo to Harry?

[indukecai94]

Same, TEO, Same 🤣🤣

Let's get married

[what-personality]

I have a few issues with The Ssum so far that I won’t dive into without playing the game a bit more, but what I will bring up is that you can buy two whole full PC games by Cheritz for just a bit more than two months’ worth of subscription to The Ssum

If you don’t want to pay for the sub but want to play a cute Cheritz game that isn’t Mystic Messenger, might I suggest one or both of Dandelion -Wishes brought to you- and Nameless ~The one thing you must recall~ on Steam

[annbourbon]

The Ssum - My diary with Harry Choi.

⚠️⚠️Spoilers ahead⚠️⚠️

First it was cloudy.

We got to know each other. My feelings for you were nothing more than love-hate relationship. I could not even put up with you and you were so annoying. but funny in a way.

30 days after knowing each other i still didn't feel like falling in love with you. But i kept playing and tagging on with your adventures.

Then it was burny. My heart started to skip beats around you. you were a bit mean at the beginning trying to scare me. you did scare me. TT that painting now is haunting my nightmares.

You decided to have a tattoo. I chose the moon. Because of my love for the moon. Because of the ever changing moon. The one that can help the tide rise even though she's far away. Because of my love for sailor moon. and because of Selene and the legend of prince Endymion.

Tbh i didn't even think through. all i thought was, i want you to have something that reminds you of me on your skin. i want you. i want to mark you as mine. but.... ohhh... i should have seen it coming. day 44. lol

TBH still don't love you. just.... not yet. i don't think i ever realized of my own feelings.

Other things happened and i was more focused on Teo than thinking about you. I wanted to know more about Zen's life too.

2 months into you and I just keep thinking to myself that we're good friends now.

Then Pi planet came.

You learned to apologize. Sincerely. And i didn't even force you.... but that day was.... very special to me. I started to like you. For real.

You put on cat ears. You went to the amusement park for me. And took the longest and fullest line just to ride on my favorite rollercoaster. You liked it. You liked my suggestions. You didn't enjoy the people, but you liked my suggestions. you ate what i picked for you too.

It was quite fun. we are 62 days into.

Day 68. i realized your heart belongs to someone else. i don't know why but i cried.

I realized that it's never gonna be me. i decided to not pursue you.

You talked about miracles happening. i'm confused but i will keep following you around. quietly. i don't want my feelings to be a burden to you. actually~ sincce the day you rejected me... i never ever said anything else about it. i hope you notice that at least. i think i'm accepting being a second character here.... even though i yearn for love. more specifically, your love.

Day 71. my heart skipped a big one this time. I saw you and myself under a different light. you told me i should be selfish. that i'm way too kind. i just wanted to let you sleep.

i blinked through tears again. my father has been calling me selfish and ungrateful since i was a baby/toddler. i never realized i could be called kind and selfless. i'm shaking. and you kind of cured a big scar for me. i think i'm falling for you.

Day 79. you decided to start baking. and we talked. and talked. and talked.

Day 80. you're behaving a bit different today.... why don't you want to let me go? lolol it's fun but i have other things to do... i was confused that day.

Dayy 85. you protected our carrots. i'm definitely falling for you... i can't help it. i can't help myself.

Day 87. ..... my heart is a big mess. there's an angel. he said you're gonna break my heart. i.... i received a call from your future you. you hate me so much.... i've been shaking and crying for three days now. all the time. i barely eat. and now i cannot and i don't want to get close... just being around you makes me shiver.

makes my heart break into pieces.. i can't breathe. i never realized how painful it was. no one ever said that they hated me.

I guess i'm lucky... lucky because i've been living my whole life through and people around love me. like really love me. going to extremes sometimes. but they love me.

I.... want to apologize to everyone i have ever hurt by saying that i hated them or despised them. i want to hug them. and sincerely say that i'm sorry. i don't think anyone deserves to be hated. it's so painful it crushes you.

Day 89. i've been quite distant. you're noticing it.

Day 90.... that was flirting. i'm quite sure you were flirting. why!? you don't like me.... not in a romantic way... i don't understand... but made my heart skip a beat again. you made me blush. and somehow i feel like, maybe? maybe i can~ maybe i have you. the present you. and maybe i can change the future? maybe? maybe you won't hate me~? i'm confused and i step out a bit. i'm crying again but i feel lighter. i have hope now.

Day 93 and 94. you're gorgeous. and you're enjoying and i'm enjoying. tain is noisy but it's fun lol

Day 95. i remember the pinapple i chosenthe other day. again. for you. another tattoo... it's heart melting....

Day 97... is it today? i learned some spoilers by accident. my heart is trying to pull it off... it wasn't. i'm happy....

Day 100 and 101..

You confessed.... you confessed you didn't want me to go away. you want to live with me. And you want to live under my constellation. And you were quite romantic about it. i had the perfect opportunity to say that i love you. i didn't. i just enjoyed the moment. i was a bit afraid to say it first. you just said you like me. can i just enjoy that? yeah it's enough. you don't hate me. you like me. and me above else it's gonna live with you. my heart is skipping a lot of beats today. and i'm blushing. i might enter into cardiac arrest lololol

uhhh my constellation~? *looking into it because doesn't know my own constellation lol* Harry seems to know me better than i do sometimes

i tried to call you honey. it only made everything awkward. i myself didn't feel like, i want to call you that. we're not like that. it felt off and fake. yeah, let's not.

Day 103... you love to feed me don't you? lol pls stop because if i get fatter it'll be all your fault.

i love how much effort you put into it all tho

Day 105... i'm getting jealous and highly suspicious of everyone around you who (~Lover, Taylor Swift) you're so hot and gorgeous.... i love you so much...

Day 106... oh~

i wasn't prepared. i ended up crying. i was stuck in my house and carrying water and i got wet and there was a huge mess. and it's been a couple of bad days for me but you have a way to make them good. today was not the case. my heart is~ not feeling well..

I ended up crying. and i'm not sure why but i think i'm gonna cry a lot tomorrow too...

tomorrow is my birthday... but you're going to ruin it. don't you?

i don't want to enter. i want to avoid you all along. but it's my birthday. i want you to say something to me...

So i enter. knowing it's gonna be a lot of drama. *sighs* i made a playlist about you. it doesn't end in a happy note though.

♡~Birthday call~♡... I joked about it you know? I never actually expected of you to say it. But my heart skipped about a mile when you said I love you.

You asked me to wish upon something. I don't think I have something to wish for... maybe because we're in a different universe. But if I had a wish... I wish... I wish for~

Day 107: I tried to be angry. I tried to be jealous. I couldn't. You said you wanted to hug me and that you found the whole situation disheartening. That calmed me in a way I never thought it'd be possible. I usually get angrier when things go south. And no one is able to calm me. You just did it. I have you. It's all that matters. I won't be bothered by that. I love you. Finally my heart can have some peace.

"I don't want people to get curious about you" Is he that jealous~? lol I can't say if he's jealous or not.... maybe protective of me? uhmmm the other reason would be too painful....

☆ I'm editing this through the whole journey. Just not often. Because I can rant a lot sometimes and I want this to be just the most important and noteworthy things I experienced through.☆

Ngl, I'm having more fun discovering all the trivial functions than chatting with Teo lmao

MysMeSsumConnections: Post 1

Hello, all. This is a compilation of my Ssum lab’s first subject of discussion.

Welcome to the lab for discussing theories about how the worlds of Mystic Messenger and Ssum might connect!

First Q: If these two games ARE connected, in what way would you love them to be related?

The consensus seems to be that if there is a connection, it’s probably related to 707 in some way. (Although one user pointed out Teo and V or Zen may meet/become friends due to the career connections)

I’m going to list out some possible ways that Seven could relate to Ssum.

1.) Ssum is a phone game that Seven programmed himself.

It is possible Seven made a dating app just on a whim (he’s certainly done other pet projects on a whim) and then forgot the password before its release, as seen in the MM screencaps.

(Contributed by: Saiph - gNAPzi) It is also possible he made this app to play out his personal fantasy of having a normal life with MC (with Teo being his self-insert). There are many elements in Ssum that seem to match his personal style and aesthetics (the space theme, the AI bird, etc). The setting is also somewhat similar to MM’s premise; meeting a stranger via a mysterious app that somehow ended up on your phone. 

(Contributed by: Nia - uHARzC) If you subscribe to reset theory or to the idea Seven is fully aware that he is in a phone game, perhaps Seven programmed Ssum as a way of keeping us company and checking in on us. 

2.) Aliens are real and Seven is directly involved with working for the Ssum Forbidden Lab or is at least aware of its existence.

(Contributed by: o6APzn) Perhaps Seven programmed PIU-PIU and some of the Ssum app’s interface. And maybe his involvement runs even deeper and Dr. Cus-Monsieur is just another one of Seven’s many alises-- or, in the very least, Seven knows the Dr and works for them. 

(Contributed by: Sofia- aeAOzj) Other people have suggested the easter egg you can find in the Achievements section may be hinting at something bigger. What if one day, Seven was hacking something and somehow discovered a signal from the Ssum Lab? He would learn about this incredible series of labs in space run by aliens-- and then he accidentally blocked the signal/lost the data. Seven desperately tries to find it again but never does and remains obsessed with “the space station” he knows is out there, doing mysterious studies on love.

3.) MysMe and Ssum are set in the same universe but have no direct relation (outside of a few easter eggs).

(Contributed by: Ms- ZfAPzT) This is perhaps the least complex theory. It’s simply the idea that Teo lives on the same planet/time as the people from Mystic Messenger do, but they probably won’t interact much, outside of a few easter eggs. However, user Ms pointed out that even though that may not be as exciting, it’s still a very nice thought. “I’m already happy just thinking that perhaps this world (Ssum) is a world where all of [the MM characters] exist, and that the MC of MM is helping them.” 

There is one last theory I did not see posted so far but I wanted to include real quick:

4.) MysMe and Ssum will be connected via some kind of multiverse.

There have already been several hints dropped that Ssum will involve a multiverse in its deeper plotline. PIU-PIU also talks about how they manipulate time and space around Teo, and seems to imply that Teo may exist in a different universe from ours/MC (or a different planet, at least). It’s reasonable to speculate that MysMe may possibly exist in the multiverse in their own dimension, too. (You can also get into a bunch of ideas spitballing off the April Fools Special from MysMe, which implies MC's dimension is seperate from the world of MysMe)

And that’s it for now! A huge thanks to everyone who participated in this lab’s very first research question. If you’d like to join in on the fun, you can find MysMeSsumConnections in the City of Free Men. I plan to post one new discussion topic a week about Ssum & MysMe fan theories, and the top response will get a gift! 🤩

[intr0verted-weird0]

The Ssum has been making me look forward to something every day ever since I started playing.. the whole concept is so amazing and there's so much to be excited for!

I'm being completely honest when I say this game is so healing. The Infinite Universe is so beautiful, and the community is so supportive and loving ♡

There's a planet where you can be creative and post stories, poems, or whatever you're feeling. There's a planet where you can get troubles off your chest and receive support from others. There's a planet when you can post or participate in any topic you'd like and engage with others! And those aren't even all of them!!

There's still upcoming features that I'm really looking forward to, but I'm totally satisfied as it is right now so it makes me excited to think about the new things to come!

Teo is an angel, and everything is so casual and sweet. It's so refreshing. You set a schedule so you and Teo can talk when it's most convenient for you, which is amazing. It's all just a breath of fresh air. When Teo is away, I browse the planets and admire my cute little space creatures >_<

There's also a personality test that says what kind of relationship is well-suited for you, which is really fun! There's daily, thought-provoking questions which I enjoy the most. It's really nice to see other people's responses, too.

Also, PIU-PIU!!! Cute!!!!!! I will not elaborate further, that is all you need to know. The Ssum is so rewarding and pleasant, I really can't recommend enough for people to play it. I don't want to say too much about Teo other than the fact that he is cute because I want everyone to see for themselves, and also because your special ssum-one will be a little different based on your responses.. hehe....

Last but not least: Teo's voice actor is THE BEST. They did an absolutely amazing job,I cannot get enough of Teo's voice. I replayed his phone calls so many times I got a Trivial Feature (achievements!) for it haha.... Seriously, his voice is so good.

There's 200 days available right now (200!!!) and more days are on the way~ The fact that I have something to look forward to for such a long time to come gives me so much happiness and peace. And I mentioned before how healing it is, so I'm so grateful 💕
