To get the gacha capsule shop simulator auto pull unlock, you must complete the multi-part quest called “The Automaton’s Touch” and assemble a special machine for your shop. This isn't a simple menu toggle; it's a significant mid-game project that involves finding a specific NPC, gathering three rare components from across the city, and upgrading your shop's infrastructure. It's an essential upgrade for late-game farming, and this guide walks you through every single step.
Why Do You Even Need Auto-Pull?
In the early hours of Gacha Capsule Shop Simulator, manually pulling the lever on each machine is part of the charm. But once you have a dozen or more machines and are hunting for ultra-rare drops, the constant clicking becomes a major time sink. The auto-pull function, once unlocked, automates this process entirely.
It isn't just about convenience; it's about efficiency. The fully upgraded auto-puller can perform hundreds of pulls per minute while you manage inventory, customize the shop, or hunt for more components. It is the single most important upgrade for farming G-Coins and collecting the complete set of every capsule series. Unlocking auto-pull is the pivot point from casual shop owner to gacha tycoon.
How to Start “The Automaton’s Touch” Quest
You can't begin the quest for automation from day one. There are two specific prerequisites you must meet to trigger the appearance of the quest-giving NPC.
- Reach Shop Reputation Level 3 (“Local Hotspot”). You increase your Shop Reputation by completing daily objectives, stocking a wide variety of machines, and getting positive reviews from customers. Reaching Level 3 typically takes about 10-15 hours of focused gameplay.
- Wait for Kael to Appear. Once you hit Reputation Level 3, a new NPC named Kael will begin visiting your shop. Kael is a retired gacha master with a cybernetic arm who only appears between 8 PM and midnight (in-game time). He has a unique dialogue icon over his head. Speak to him, and after a bit of conversation about the “old days of gacha,” he’ll offer you the blueprint for the “Auto-Gacha 9000” and officially begin “The Automaton’s Touch” quest.
He will task you with finding three incredibly rare components needed to build the machine's core.
Step 1: Finding the Three Core Components
This is the longest part of the quest. The three components—a Precision Servomotor, a Quantum Casing, and a Chrono-Gear—are scattered across different activities and locations. You can collect them in any order, but we've listed them from easiest to most difficult.
Infographic showing the three components needed for the auto-pull machine.
The Precision Servomotor (Akihabara Arcade)
This component is a prize reward from a specific mini-game in the Akihabara Arcade district. Travel to the arcade and find the retro music game machine called “Gacha-Pop Beat.”
The goal is to achieve a score of 50,000 points or higher on the song “Capsule Fever” on Hard difficulty. This is a challenge of timing and rhythm. The key is to focus on hitting the long “held” notes, as they provide a significant combo multiplier. Don't be discouraged if it takes a few tries. Once you clear the 50,000-point threshold, the machine will dispense the Precision Servomotor as a unique prize.
Crafting the Quantum Casing (Workshop)
The Quantum Casing isn't found; it must be crafted at the Workshop bench in your shop's back room. The blueprint Kael gave you automatically adds the recipe, but the materials are rare.
Crafting Recipe for Quantum Casing:
- Golden Shards (x10): These are rare drops obtained by recycling duplicate 4-star and 5-star capsule toys. You'll likely accumulate these naturally as you play, but the fastest way is to empty high-end machines like the “Galactic Heroes” or “Mythic Creatures” series.
- Scrap Electronics (x50): A common material found by scavenging in the Junkyard or recycling low-tier, 1-star duplicate toys.
- Refined Polymer (x5): This is another crafted component. You can make one Refined Polymer from 20 pieces of standard Plastic, which is a very common recycling byproduct.
Once you have the materials, craft the Quantum Casing at the Workshop. The process is instant. This part of the quest is a test of your resource management and grinding efficiency.
The Chrono-Gear (Junkyard Secret Boss)
This is by far the most challenging component to acquire. The Chrono-Gear is a guaranteed drop from a secret boss called the Capsule Golem that only spawns in the Junkyard district under very specific conditions.
How to Summon the Capsule Golem:
- Travel to the Junkyard district.
- The in-game time must be between midnight and 3 AM.
- You must have a “Strange Doll” capsule toy in your inventory. This is a rare 3-star prize from the “Cursed Relics” gacha machine.
With these conditions met, a pile of scrap in the center of the Junkyard will animate and form the hulking Capsule Golem. The fight is tough. The Golem is slow but hits hard with a “Capsule Barrage” area-of-effect attack. Its primary weak spot is a glowing red capsule embedded in its chest, which only becomes vulnerable for a few seconds after it performs a ground-slam attack. Use your Stun Grenade items to break its leg armor, which will cause it to topple and give you a longer window to attack the chest. Defeat it, and it will drop the Chrono-Gear.

Step 2: Assembling and Powering the Auto-Gacha 9000
With all three components in hand, it's time to finish the job. Return to your shop and wait for Kael to visit again (he should show up the next evening). Speak to him, and a cutscene will trigger where you and he assemble the Auto-Gacha 9000.
The machine will be placed in your back room, but it won't work yet. Kael explains that it needs a dedicated power line. This requires one final upgrade:
- Upgrade your shop’s Power Generator to Level 3.
This upgrade is available via the shop management PC. It's a costly investment, typically requiring 200,000 G-Coins, but it's the final barrier. Once you purchase the upgrade, the Auto-Gacha 9000 will power on, and the auto-pull feature is officially unlocked.
You can now approach any gacha machine in your shop and, instead of “Pull,” you’ll see a new option for “Start Auto-Pull.” This will bring up a menu where you can set how many pulls you want it to perform, up to your current G-Coin balance.
Upgrading Your Auto-Pull Machine for Maximum Efficiency
Unlocking the machine is just the beginning. The base-level Auto-Gacha 9000 is functional but slow, performing one pull every 10 seconds. You can interact with the machine in your back room to invest more resources and upgrade its capabilities significantly. These upgrades are expensive but absolutely worth it for endgame players.

Auto-Gacha 9000 Upgrade Tiers:
- Level 2 (Speed Boost): Reduces pull time from 10 seconds to 5 seconds. Cost: 50,000 G-Coins, 20x Scrap Electronics.
- Level 3 (Multi-Pull Module): Unlocks the ability to perform 10 pulls simultaneously. Pull time remains 5 seconds per batch. Cost: 250,000 G-Coins, 5x Refined Polymer.
- Level 4 (Advanced Sorting): Automatically recycles any duplicate toys below a star rating that you choose (e.g., auto-recycle all 1-star and 2-star dupes). Cost: 500,000 G-Coins, 1x Quantum Casing (you'll need to craft another!).
- Level 5 (Overdrive Mode): The ultimate upgrade. Reduces the 10x pull time from 5 seconds to just 1.5 seconds, allowing for unbelievably fast farming. Cost: 1,000,000 G-Coins, 1x Chrono-Gear (yes, you have to defeat the Capsule Golem again).
Investing fully in the Auto-Gacha 9000 transforms your ability to generate income and find rare items, making it the most powerful tool in the entire game.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is the auto-pull unlock missable? No, you cannot miss the quest. As long as you reach Shop Reputation Level 3, Kael will eventually appear in your shop. He will continue to visit until you speak with him to start the quest.
What's the fastest way to get Golden Shards for the Quantum Casing? The most reliable method is to use the “Mystic Dragon” gacha machine. It has a high rate of 4-star drops, which can be recycled into Golden Shards. Spend a few thousand G-Coins on that machine, and you should get the 10 shards you need.
Do I have to fight the Capsule Golem more than once? Yes. You need one Chrono-Gear to build the machine and a second one for its final upgrade to Level 5. This means you will have to summon and defeat the Capsule Golem at least twice.
Can the auto-puller work on event-exclusive machines? Yes, the Auto-Gacha 9000 works on every gacha machine you can place in your shop, including limited-time event machines. This makes it invaluable for clearing out event prize pools quickly.
The Final Word
Unlocking the auto-pull feature in Gacha Capsule Shop Simulator is a rite of passage. It marks your transition from a hands-on hobbyist to a serious, automated collector. The journey through “The Automaton’s Touch” quest is long, involving mini-games, crafting, and a secret boss fight, but the reward is the most powerful quality-of-life upgrade in the game. Prioritize this quest as soon as it becomes available—your G-Coin balance will thank you.
