The home page of the site appears to be cute and harmless, but when the player clicks the [[Mimi]] image, the site then warns the user that since it is scary, it is not recommended for those people who suffer from heart problems.  
The home page of the site appears to be cute and harmless, but when the player clicks the [[Mimi]] image, the site then warns the user that since it is scary, it is not recommended for those people who suffer from heart problems.  


To proceed to the game, the user must click the image of Mimi at the bottom of the warning page. After clicking the Mimi image, they will be redirected to a page with an ominous door on a black background. If the player clicks on the door, it will open, they will be met with either Ookamuro, a large floating head, or three Cursed Dolls accompanied by an eerie ambience playing in the background. In the Ookamuro variant, five clickable white circles appear in the bottom-left corner. When the player clicks on the fifth dot, a woman called Yukie will pop up and crawl towards the camera along with a scream. In the Cursed Doll variant of Main.html, four mirrors appear at the bottom of the screen, and Yukie is absent from the page.

The game's story delves into heavy themes such as paranoia, suicide, and depression. It can be considered ''utsuge'' (鬱ゲー, "depressing game"), a game meant to depress the player, or as a typical horror game. Even though the site has a lot of screamers, it can also be considered a puzzle game, since almost every page of the site has a puzzle or is a part of a larger puzzle.

* <b>CHRISTMAS EVENT ONLY</b>: During Christmas, if the player clicks on the picture of Santa Claus in the above-left corner, the player will be redirected to Xmaschallenge.html. In Xmaschallenge.html, it shows Santa Claus behind a desk with three presents that each contain one of five different prizes: a teddy bear, a mini game console, a soccer ball, a dress-up doll, or a scooter. Clicking one randomly selected present will cause Santa Claus to become shadowy and a Rush event will occur, with a scream remix of Jingle Bells.

* <b>NEW YEAR EVENT ONLY</b>: During the new year, if the player clicks on the Mimi with a yukata below the site, the player will be redirected to another flash animation. Mimi is in a sanctuary while dressing in a yukata, and tells that she will read the player's new year's fortune if they put their donation in the box. After the player clicks on the box, Mimi will shake the cup and there will be two results: one is bad luck and one is good luck. If the player got good luck (white paper), nothing happens and the player can try again. However, if the player got bad luck (black paper), lots of screamers will pop up and after it, the player will be redirected to the "dark side" of the website, in a new version of this event, the player can see Yukatan is not even at there and skips into a new version of it, Mimi will tell the user to drop the coin into the donation box if it's a white paper with different letters (if it's pink, Mimi would be excited) if the user tries that again and receives a black paper, everything will turn black and then Abyss, Dai kuchisake-onna, Sanrenme, Kubishime-onna, Mandoreiku, and Eris will pop up in rapid succession with loud scream-singing song.

* <b>Akeru.html (First mask)</b>: A page of random text with apparently no meaning. There's a loop of a doll called Nihonningyou peeking around a corner in the background. Two words of the text are highlighted in a darker red, which will redirect the player to another page. The first link is labeled "薙k縺", which is just a part of the game's puzzle. There is a door sporting a box with a shattered window. Beside it, is a panel of images of dolls, each with a different color. The second link is called "縺翫>・・", with no meaning at all. At this link, there's a video called "壱ノ其トンヒノ為ム進" and it has a minor screamer. The video shows Borei running toward the viewer holding a sign that says "進む為の ヒントその壱 人形の間の 先のページを くまなく 調べて みてね 。 クリック できるポイントが あるかも…" ("Hints to help you move forward, Part 1: Look at the pages beyond the doll room. There may be a spot you can click on...").

* <b>Konkon (Second mask)</b>: Konkon-san is shown banging at high speed on the player's screen, mouth open but with no scream. "Konkon" (コンコン) is a Japanese onomatopoeia for knocking. Unlike the other masks, the player is not redirected to a new page.

**<b>Aguodiernihs.html (Left door)</b>: Backwards for "shinreidouga", meaning "ghost video". Clicking on this will take the player to a page with a black background and a pseudo-YouTube video that is 20 seconds, titled "カメラが捉えた 恐怖の心霊映像" (lit. "Fear psychic images captured by the camera"). Once played, the video starts with an empty interior of a passenger train or a bus. J-ker briefly appears and disappears, walking through the screen. Static appears for a brief moment, then the J-ker appears walking out of the YouTube video and laughing boisterously (a commonly used sound effect on this website), thus leading the player back to the main page.

Four fake Chrome windows move on the screen while one is still, and the pictures inside are also moving. The background is red with a flesh-like texture, and is surrounded by brown circles. Clicking on one of the windows will also result in at least one screamer. The windows contain a newspaper, a pair of blinking eyes called Mitsumeru-me, a monochrome heart called Shinzō, and a GIF of bacteria.

* <b>Eye.html (Mitsumeru-me)</b>: A red-colored text appears that reads, '''<font color="red">"† Voes ne roeiz † Hone kousen de veiuw oss, Yea joen ve reiso … Kazenu oudesu je teo. Lunio sa bietex … Yovari sare omgass heliz de deaoth ! … Sia orev "Oude hyunn syou de quesev je lunedix !" Obenu ouss re teven. Oupos soi raen 20% vasaiz… Vois ord je viex kogea delatte ou jute roela…"</font>'''. The text is made up of several different languages and has no meaning. On the left and the right, there are two Betties, and below the text, there's a red variation of Mitsumeru-me blinking rapidly. Clicking on it will redirect the player to a page called "Nyanyanyanyahn.html" with a fake YouTube video. Clicking on the video's play button will result in Kuroageha flying toward the camera and breaking the screen. If the player clicks on the broken screen, it will redirect the player to another page with another video with a puzzle. The player must unscramble the ten hiragana characters to proceed. The correct answer is "あなたのうしろにいる" (lit. ''I'm behind you'') in the Japanese version. In the English version, several cards are shown very quickly and the player must only enter the numbers of the red cards. It is a part of the game's puzzle and is not a red herring. After putting in the correct answer, the player can enter a door, but it will have a screamer first and then another door appears.

The background is red and has a lot of fake cursors that follow the player's cursor, as well as a door in the middle of the screen. The fake cursors are meant to confuse the player and disguise the real cursor. If the player clicks the door, Namakubi no Onna drops down to the centre of the screen from the top-left corner. If the player takes too long, Elusive appears along with a moan with the sound of loud footsteps, as the player then gets sent back to the main page. Any attempt to cheat causes a screamer to pop up, though the cheating detector is extremely strict and sometimes the player can get jumpscared without cheating.

This page has a dark room with a door blocked by Tomato Onna. The player can click on either side of the screen to see a painting. By clicking on the painting, they can remove it to reveal a shotgun, which they can take as their weapon. After they move back to the room, Tomato Onna will appear with loud scream. If the player shoots her, she will die and reveal the door behind her. When the door is clicked, an [[Wikipedia:Internet Explorer|Internet Explorer]]-styled 404 page is shown, then the screen turns black and 404'san appears, snipping her scissors. Once the player shoots her, they will see a door which leads to Ima3yaruk62oc.html. The 404 page was originally a separate page known as Astceilsiseorrs.html.

Downstairs the player will see a cassette tape. As the user plays it a high-pitched voice (presumably of the Researcher) can be heard. The voice says the password to the next room, but before it can finish, it is interrupted by Pieyama MK-2. He distracts the viewer with a roar while breaking the tape and then his laugh can be heard. Afterwards, the player can continue down the stairs to see a poster translating the code to the next room, and the door to the next room (Ujinoma.html).
