As the crisp autumn month of October sets in, the popular romance detective game, Tears of Themis, has something thrilling in store for its dedicated fanbase. On October 10, 2023, HoYoverse, the mastermind behind this digital gem, has announced the launch of a special limited-time event christened Mystery of Bakerlon. The luxurious Mobius train, owned by the affluent Kahn family, will set the stage, providing the backdrop to a tale interweaving both romance and mystery.

Stellis, the vibrant fictional city within Tears of Themis, has always been the playground where players, assuming the roles of budding lawyers, confront a myriad of cases, backed by investigations and arguments. As they move through various narratives, they are consistently supported by the NXX Investigation Team, a quartet of diverse personalities. This time, the narrative throws players into a city brimming with nostalgia and romanticism, accentuated further by the launch of the aforementioned Mobius train.

With the grandeur of a celebratory event hosted by the Kahn family for the train’s launch, a series of peculiar events unravel. As darkness blankets the city, an ominous shadow looms within the train, haunting its confines with an unsettling, ghostly serenade. This suspenseful episode is termed the Event Shadow of Themis, and it puts the spotlight on the four beloved male leads of the game. The cherry on top? Players stand a heightened chance to bag exclusive SSR cards, only available for a short while.

As the main narrative of the Mystery of Bakerlon unfolds from the stipulated launch date, players are invited to navigate through tasks and challenges, with enticing rewards dangling at the end. From unique badges to coveted R cards, the bounty is diverse. However, the challenges don’t end there. They’re also encouraged to partake in the Crystal Research assignments, which require keen observation and attention to detail, especially in relation to the train’s various compartments. But it’s not all work; participants can take a breather with the Leisurely Trip tasks, enjoying the game’s aesthetics and acquiring materials to power up their in-game avatars.

For those who cherish aesthetics, there’s more good news. Limited-time discounts are up for grabs on Misty themed outfits and backgrounds, enabling players to plunge into a romantic escapade in a fog-laden city reminiscent of yesteryears. And if that isn’t enough to tantalize the Tears of Themis community, there are special gifts in line, such as the Luke SSR Invincible for Love card and a unique Namecard, labeled as Shadow Embossed – Invincible.
