There are also a few optional conversations which help to flesh out the other characters, but they aren’t at all important to the plot and can be easily avoided however, they do offer some very interesting stories, as well as making players aware of some interesting real world facts and theories. The discussions during these sections can tend to drag on at times, but the vast majority of them are integral to the plot. At times, you’ll also be able to make decisions, such as what teams you want to form in order to enter a locked door and what areas you want to investigate first. These sections primarily exist to help drive the plot forward, letting the player know what’s going on, what they should be doing, and where they should be. The first is a text-driven graphic novel that provides character illustrations and a background for the environments. Nine Doors gameplay is split into three parts.

Junpei quickly searches for a way to escape the locked room, barely avoiding a watery demise. No sooner after coming to this realization, the cabin’s outer window bursts open, allowing an unstoppable flow of sea water to come flooding in and start filling up the room. Having been startled awake by what sounds like an explosion, he finds himself trapped in what appears to be a ship’s cabin.
