Bakso Malang Anomalies has 60+ unique anomaly encounters across visual, behavioral, environmental, jin (spirit), mimic, and special categories. Some are instant refusals, others require Third Eye confirmation, and a few have specific handling rules. The Real Bakso Malang anomaly will literally decapitate you and turn you into bakso if you get too close.
After encountering every anomaly type in this game, I can tell you the hardest ones aren't the obvious monsters - they're the perfect mimics that look 99% normal. Those require Third Eye to detect, and using Third Eye too much gets you killed anyway. Celebrity anomalies like Caseoh and IShowspeed also appear as customers - keep your distance and don't serve them.

Detection Priority
When a customer approaches, follow this order:
- Visual scan - Check for obvious anomalies (faceless, extra limbs, wrong colors)
- Behavioral check - Watch how they move and speak
- Rule verification - Does this customer type have special rules?
- Third Eye confirmation - If still uncertain, quick 1-2 second tap of Q
- Decision - Serve or refuse based on findings
Warning: Use Third Eye in short bursts only. Overuse fills the green meter and leads to supernatural endings. See our Third Eye guide for safe usage.
