Judgment: Paradise VR, All Six Free Pass Vouchers, Quickstarter, and Money Farming
Paradise VR pays for most of Judgment's expensive completion work. The later drone parts, skill purchases, and G.A. Labs projects need a lot of money, so it helps to unlock the longer courses before buying everything else.
This covers the first Judgment and its remaster. Lost Judgment changes Dice & Cube substantially.
UNLOCKING THE SIX COURSES
Paradise VR is in Theater Alley. The Chapter 3 story introduces Dice & Cube; finish that visit, then return to play normally.
Clear the courses in this order:
1. Short, Normal/Standard Rule: 3 Play Passes.
2. Short, Challenge Rule: 3 passes.
3. Middle, Normal/Standard Rule: 5 passes.
4. Middle, Challenge Rule: 5 passes, plus its Quickstarter project.
5. Long, Normal/Standard Rule: 10 passes.
6. Long, Challenge Rule: 10 passes, plus its Quickstarter project.
Quickstarter opens in Chapter 6. Fund Challenge Rule: Middle Course for a total project goal of ¥1,000,000. Play Middle Challenge to open the Long Challenge project, whose goal is ¥2,000,000. Funding alone does not replace the preceding course clears.
Until you have the Free Pass, get ordinary Play Passes from batting-center rewards, gambling exchanges, or shogi. Buying casino chips and exchanging them works if you need an immediate entry, but the permanent pass is worth pursuing while you complete those other activities.
ALL SIX FREE PASS VOUCHERS
• Batting center: clear the 16 regular courses to open Yoshida's extra challenges, then clear Home Run Hell. This voucher comes from Home Run Hell; Chaotic Challenge awards a skill book instead.
• Onodera: finish his friendship and buy the voucher for 4,500 SP. He is in the Children's Park sewer area.
• L'Amant: exchange 10,000 casino chips.
• Dragon's Palace, second-floor casino: exchange 10,000 chips.
• Dragon's Palace, third-floor gambling hall: exchange 10,000 wooden tags. These are separate from casino chips.
• Drone racing: win the Champion League overall. The separate objective for first place in all ten races is not required for this voucher.
With all six, speak to the voucher receptionist at Paradise VR and redeem them. Collecting the six pieces without exchanging them leaves you paying for entries.
DICE, MOVEMENT, AND COURSE FAILURE
Each roll consumes one die. You choose the route while moving, but reversing along the path during that same move does not let you spend movement in place. Check the map before choosing a branch.
Blue dice spaces add rolls. Red dice spaces remove them. Gifts award items, battles award items and extra dice, and yellow safes require lockpicking or a thumb-turn bypass. Purple doors on the long courses move you to separate sections of the board.
Used spaces turn white. They will not keep awarding their original prizes when you circle back.
A failed battle or safe challenge sends you back to Start. Battles restore ordinary health afterward, but mortal wounds remain. Against gunmen or the big cats, use EX Boost and avoid taking unnecessary hits before the rest of the run.
Normal rules let you keep collected rewards when you run out of dice. Challenge rules require you to reach the Goal. Running out on Challenge means losing that run's rewards, including a book you just collected.
Use Normal while learning the board. Move to Challenge once you can finish consistently. Near the end, count the dice you have and the spaces to the Goal before taking another detour.
KING KORO-NYAN AND THE 5-6-2 SEQUENCE
The gold cat on Middle and Long courses activates bonus mode when your paths cross. You do not need to end your roll exactly on its square. It restores health, including mortal wounds, and changes the board for three bonus events.
Those events ask you to destroy objects or land as many hits as possible on enemies. In the hit challenge, damage is less important than the number of strikes. Tiger's repeated finishing kicks are useful. During destruction events, clear small objects as well as the obvious large furniture.
There is another way to trigger the bonus: roll 5, then 6, then 2 on consecutive rolls. This works once per run. Buy Precision Press for 12,000 SP to slow the number cycle, watch its sequence, and practice stopping on the number you need.
Do not spend your last three dice triggering bonus mode. You still need rolls to use the bonus spaces and finish the course.
A gold enemy in a battle can add another King Koro-nyan to the board when defeated. Check the map afterward before heading straight for the exit.
KURO-NYAN AND DOUBLE REWARDS
The dark/purple cat steals your collected items on contact. Find it again and win its challenge to recover twice the stolen amount.
This can increase the payout considerably, but you need enough dice to catch it and still reach the Goal. Don't attempt it at the end of a Challenge run with one roll left. If you are collecting a specific book or finishing a course for the first time, skip the risk and get the clear.
IMPORTANT VR REWARDS
• Sakura painting: finish Middle Normal with at least five dice remaining. This is one of the five paintings for Fukutsu's friendship.
• Spirit of Steel: Middle Challenge. On the central horizontal stretch, take the western of the two nearby safe spaces, the one between red battle spaces. Finish the course with it.
• Running Palm Strike book: Long Normal. Warp to the isolated loop on the east/right side. The safe immediately right of the destination door, along the loop's bottom edge, holds the book.
• Running Assault book: Long Challenge. On the main route's final horizontal approach, the safe is four spaces left of the Goal, with three red battle spaces between them. Finish the course after opening it.
The book unlocks a skill purchase. You still need to spend SP in the Skills menu.
For Paradise VR completion, clear all six courses, roll 100 times, earn 50 extra dice, activate Koro-nyan mode ten times, defeat three tigers, and obtain the Free Pass. Tigers appear in the tougher battle spaces. Prepare EX gauge before choosing one.
QUICKSTARTER FUNDING AND REWARDS
Shin Fujimori introduces the app in Chapter 6. Hold the confirm button on a project to contribute. Other backers slowly contribute during play, but they stop at half of the full goal. Angel Investor speeds up their contributions. You can pay the remainder immediately if you would rather continue than wait.
Check the mailbox outside Yagami's office for physical rewards. A funded skill book that is still in the mailbox will not unlock its purchase. Some projects instead unlock an activity or a product in shops.
The amounts below are FULL project goals, before other backers' contributions.
Skill books:
• Cipher Secrets: Mind over Matter: ¥100,000. Unlocks Boost EX Gauge Lv. 1.
• Cipher Secrets: Brains over Brawn: ¥100,000, after the first Cipher project. Unlocks Heart of a Champion.
• QR Code Compendium: ¥200,000. Unlocks Code Hunter.
• Unofficial Dice & Cube Strategy Guide: ¥100,000. Unlocks High Roller.
• Unabridged Dice & Cube Strategy Guide: ¥200,000, after Unofficial. Unlocks Elevated Roller.
• Ultimate Dice & Cube Strategy Guide: ¥300,000, after Unabridged. Unlocks Exalted Roller.
Buy the three Roller skills with SP after collecting their books. They increase the starting allowance to one, two, then three extra dice. The final total is three extra dice.
Drone parts:
• Hyper Propeller H: ¥200,000.
• Super Motor S: ¥100,000.
• Low-Cost ESC: ¥100,000.
• Low-Cost Turbo: ¥100,000.
These projects award their parts directly. Collect them from the mailbox; they do not need a second set of crafting materials.
Activities and equipment:
• Challenge Rule: Middle Course: ¥1,000,000.
• Challenge Rule: Long Course: ¥2,000,000.
• Premier Darts: ¥100,000.
• Miracle Darts: ¥200,000, after Premier Darts.
• Artisinal Shogi Set: ¥100,000. Collect it, then speak to the men at Children's Park to arrange Puzzle Shogi in the sewers. Complete Moroboshi's friendship for the sewer setup.
SP drinks:
• Hug Bomb Alpha: ¥500,000.
• Hug Bomb Beta: ¥500,000, after Alpha.
• Hug Bomb Omega: ¥500,000, after Beta.
These unlock improved drinks in stores. Funding a project is not an unlimited supply of its drink.
ALL TEN G.A. LABS PROJECTS
Speak to Noboru Tateyama on Tenkaichi Street to start the building projects. Return to him after Basic Construction to open the Development Floor. Continue funding each stage to unlock the next.
1. Basic Construction: ¥200,000.
2. Development Floor: ¥200,000.
3. Research Floor: ¥300,000.
4. Testing Facility: ¥500,000.
5. Data Center: ¥800,000.
6. Meeting Rooms: ¥1,200,000.
7. Event Hall: ¥2,000,000.
8. General Affairs: ¥3,000,000.
9. Human Resources: ¥4,500,000.
10. Executive Floor: ¥7,000,000.
The full G.A. Labs total is ¥19.7 million. Waiting for the maximum outside funding reduces Yagami's contribution to ¥9.85 million. The final completion awards SP; it does not unlock a business-management game or a new source of daily income.
All 28 Quickstarter projects together have full goals totaling ¥26.1 million. With the full 50% contribution from other backers on every project, your share is ¥13.05 million. Paying everything yourself costs the full amount.
KamuroGo has a 15-funded-project objective and separate requirements for all ten G.A. Labs stages. Other completion tasks require several of the books, parts, and activity unlocks anyway. Fund the useful projects first, then use spare money for the later building floors.
TURNING VR MONEY INTO SP
Once the Omega project is finished, buy Hug Bomb Omega at Poppo for ¥140,000 per bottle. Each gives 770 SP, or 847 while the ordinary Growth Extract boost is active.
The practical order is:
• Unlock the longer VR courses and buy the Roller skills.
• Work toward the Free Pass through the other completion activities.
• Save before each run and prioritize finishing it.
• Use the gold-cat bonuses, then try Kuro-nyan once you have enough dice and know the board.
• Buy the SP you still need after finishing the rewarding side cases and friendships.
• Put remaining money into drone parts and the unfinished Quickstarter projects.
Long runs can pay millions, but the amount depends on your rewards, bonus events, and whether you finish. Don't budget around a guaranteed payout from every attempt.
