When I finished Edison Chen's grind with v1.4, I didn't think an update would ever happen. With v1.6, we have some new stories and characters. And some new grind.




NOTE: A word of warning beforehand - you can't start the new v1.6 missions if you have completed Yu Lin's missions. You can find a guide on how to fix that below the review. Thanks to Yenkazu for the solution.

So v1.5 gives you the ability to mix your intimate shenanigans with the girls. Zhou Ling, Liu Quan and Xia Qing have all fallen for your charms, so now what? It's time to have some four player fun. I don't think you need any more information about what happens there, so let's continue to the new update.




V1.6 introduces Ninna and Tong Na to the Roommates universe. You can start Ninna's path while doing Yu Lin's park story, where she steals Edison's wallet. From that moment on, you can sometimes find her in the nightclub after 20:00 under a new icon. Ninna is a pink-haired rebel that doesn't care much about Edison, while he seems to care a lot for her.




Through Ninna's shenanigans, we eventually meet her mother Tong Na. As the update continues, Edison is tasked with influencing Ninna for good, which eventually lands him into trouble. What that trouble is, you will find out soon enough. I was not expecting Edison Chen to involuntarily penetrate someone just to get his way, so there's that.




It's a grindy update, so make sure to just have your money ready by grinding the job and doing everything BUT the Yu Lin missions. That way, you can roll into Ninna's mission and eventually grind some more. And hey, we get to see a sweet bet of Kung Fu as well. Iititnenon gave us quite a surprise at the end of the year.

The Yenkazu Workaround

So, you finished the game and are now unable to start Ninna's mission? You can actually start the missions by changing a variable in the game. Sadly, it does mean you miss out on the first sequence that Ninna is in. But it does allow you to play all of her following missions. Here's what you need to do:

First, you're going to want to access the console. You won't have access natively, so you will have to enable the developer console. Read on how to do so here. After you enabled the developer console, type in nn_events = 1 in the console. Exit the console and you will be able to see Ninna's second mission.

Happy gaming!
