	The application uses an icon sourced from a still frame in the [[YouTube]] video titled Katies Scary Face. Upon loading, the game first opens a main menu that contains a "Play" button. When interacting with it, it transitions to another menu, which displays "Idiot Test" as the title. The page itself does not hint to a screamer; As such, the user may hand over the device to a victim by this point, as intended by the application.

	After clicking on another "Play" button, the game starts up by displaying a photo of a cloudy sky for the background, and series of two strings of digits marked in red sliding on the screen horizontally until they are hidden off-screen begin to appear. After both strings fade off the screen, an alert box would be displayed: "Same Numbers?", and ~~will~~ prompt the user to answer either "Yes" or "No". If the player were to answer correctly, a check mark ~~will~~ appear on the screen, with text reading: "Excellent :)". If incorrect, a cross instead appears with the text "Fail :(". Another series of strings of numbers then ~~show~~ up. This process repeats indefinitely.
