FULL WALKTHROUGH
Made by J from the oneway.exe Discord server, and psychTimed on Steam! Thank you J you're so smart and cool <3
The Chase Sequences
Loop 0
Your goal is to find a way to escape! Run away from Ophelia and make your way through the maze. After some time, popups will start appearing. Grab those, and make sure to read the task manager messages!
Once you've grabbed enough popups, a new notice will appear. Now, how can you crash the game with the options you have here? Grabbing the popups caused an error to occur, so it must be something to do with getting even more popups!
TLDR: Clone the popups :3
Loop 1
This chase goes the same as Loop 0, but a bit shorter this time. Bunny hop your way to victory!
Loop 2
Instead of needing to grab the popups, all of the popups will come to you! You just need survive long enough :3
Loop 3
Survive long enough to get to an elevator.
Loop 4
Again, survive. But! Ophie will get stuck a certain point, breaking the hallway around her. Run off into the void.
Loop 5
Again, survive! And thennnn she will get stuck and you must give her a biiiiig hug :3
Loop 6
just keep walking.
Fiona - Room Section
You enter a dimly lit room with old, creaky wooden floors and peeling wallpaper. Voices whisper to you as you explore the room, and the sound of opening doors taunts you.
The newspaper clippings pasted on the walls surrounding the window tell pieces of the story of Isaiah's Meadow… but we can discuss that some other time. While you're here, you might as well grab Fiona's character card. You can examine each of these cards more closely during the desktop section :3
A family portrait on the left wall when entering depicts a man and woman with their faces seemingly burned out of the picture. This leaves Fiona, the girl sitting at the bottom of the frame. She is notably in the same wheelchair found in the middle of the room. Clicking on the wheelchair triggers a devlog between trio8:
These instances capture moments in trio8's development of Untitled.exe, and are scattered throughout each of the rooms. This guide will not point every single one out but I will include a list at the end for those who want to make sure they've gotten every single one! A good rule of thumb for finding them is when your cursor shows up :)
There are two other 2d pieces of furniture in the room: the table near the back, and the furnace directly to your right upon entering the room. Keep the furnace in mind.
As an aside, keep note of the 3d items that can be found in each room! Fiona's room has a prescription pill bottle for wellbutrin on the railing.
This, like the pill bottle, is an instance of the "real" world (the world of Trio8) bleeding into that of the game.
Something has fallen behind you! Pick it up! You now have a switchblade :3 Fiona's intrusion afterward goes as follows: "The skin was cut through with fear." How can you recreate that with the tools at your disposal?
Cutting open the skinling with the switchblade triggers a tellnet convo:
Grab what's been left inside of the skinling. A missing poster for one Laurie Barclay is now in your possession. This is potentially the owner of the skin-pile, and thus may be the writer of the pages you've found throughout Fiona's room so far.
More things have changed while you were focused on the skinling! Fiona hums to you, cries in the distance and the sound of flies buzzing become louder. Missing posters now litter the wall to the right of the window. The people named (from left to right) are Henry Barclay, Todd Watson, Archie Short, and Allen Wakeman.
But there seems to be a suspicious blank spot in the middle of the wall. Something feels missing here…
Placing Laurie's poster into the blank spot causes the room to become much darker and greener, the sound of the far wall breaking and giving way. This reveals a screen that displays one of the pages of Fiona's website (the Ecdysis Archives) from the accompanying ARG - a quite literal breaking of the fourth wall. This page reads, "Sorrow - The time approaches to bear the weight of your inflicted sorrows".
Oh. Fiona losing her religion over here. Do some close exploration of your surroundings now. Fiona's humming will keep you company.
The next page can be found hanging off of the ledge/railing, right under the pill bottle. Laurie writes about the family portrait and how much she hates it. She wonders why "she" (Fiona) keeps it there. It is from this page that we can guess that Laurie may have been the one to disfigure the portrait. Take another look at it!
Oh hello Fiona.
She's left you a present.
Clicking the book takes you to a Grapeline convo between Trio8 that took place on Feb 19th, 2013. Read, and let the memory crawl into you. From the way the trio is speaking about the Tell-Tale Heart, you can tell this must be a meaningful text to the group.
If you've never read the Tell-Tale Heart before, I suggest you go read that right after playing as it truly is such a fun story, but for right now I will give you a brief summary:
The Tell-Tale Heart is told through the first person perspective of a narrator who insists they are sane after having gotten caught for murder. They describe their meticulous thought process in which they murdered the old man they were living with, dismembered the pieces of the body and then hid those pieces throughout the room. The author then goes mad hearing the imagined beating heart of the dead man beneath the floorboards, and confesses his crimes.
The beating of the Heart is now your keystone, a siren call.
Like the author of the Tell-Tale Heart, you find the Heart beneath the floorboards behind the table.
You know the Heart was fragile. Or at least you knew it was, once.
While searching for the heart, a download was occurring in the background. Go to your desktop to see the pages that have been scattered. Don't worry about reading these all now, you will have a chance to take a closer look at everything later.
Walk through the echoes, dig through the memories, to find the one remaining at the bottom.
"The sights stay the same but the eyes have… changed"
Focus on Fiona's words here.
(sidenote: this is the perfect time to grab the comic! it's located in the pill bottle on the railing.)
Back to your task, what is something in the room that you associate with sight and eyes?
Clicking on the window, oh- Fiona's just saying hi. Again. Hi again.
"Who are you?"
Fiona - Desktop Section
Personally, I like to start each desktop section off by looking through the folder browser as new pieces of art or .exhm files get added with each room you complete. But this is totally up to you + who's desktop section you're completing!
You've now met DOLLHOUSE, a silly malware crafted by SS. He has now taken over your computer and will not let you access Untitled.exe. Your end goal is to get the game back.
Here is that chance I was talking about earlier. You can handle the mess :) While reading through the files Dolly has so kindly thrown around your desktop, you will come across a PDF titled RecievingFaxes. Follow these instructions. To find the command prompt, you will need to go digging elsewhere. Grapeline and Fantome look like they've got some notifications waiting for you :3
The command code can be found in the final pinned conversation in Fantome, beginning with EE saying "setting up."
After inputting the command code and following the rest of the instructions, you will receive a PDF titled Memories.
In your exploration earlier, you read about the export idea Kitty had and how she and Emci have so many conversations saved. If you do more exploration of your folder browser, you may find other hidden memories, and a set of instructions for how to read said-exported chats. These chats are signified by their ".exhm" file extension, one of which that can be found in your HomeData folder.
This conversation holds an image that, when clicked, triggers the next puzzle.
Host.pdf has now been downloaded. Read it. Pay special attention to the final page. Think about how you might be able to find a host on your desktop. Where can you find it and put an end to it?
Try to end the process of the Service Host in task manager. Your persistence is all you have left.
Read the new pdf you've been faxed. Close out of it, and be met with a surprise!
Finally, you've regained access to untitled.exe. Upon clicking it, you have officially completed Fiona's room!
Ophelia - Room Section
The sound of typing in the distance keeps you company as you explore this new virtual environment. The work never stops inside of a computer. I recommend clicking on anything clickable. Its nice to take a look into the player-character's head!
Directly to your right upon entering the room you will find Ophelia's character card (YAY!) right next to the snake game and a fax machine.
Clicking on the notepad gives us a look into what Ophelia had her mind right before her death. She seems to have been looking for a good neighborhood to raise children in.
Ophelia's desktop looks to be where she spent most of her time, however. Her desk (notably, the sole 3D object in the room) is populated with important files and emails that give an increasingly distressing illustration of Ophelia's life and relationship at the time. To get the most out of her room, make sure to read every email. There's quite a bit of information that you'll be missing if you don't, from Ophelia's lore to more tellnet conversations from trio8! Aside these emails is an obituary for Ophelia's father, written by her mother.
Finally, Ophelia's computer. Clicking "Forgot password?" presents the first security question you must answer to gain access to Ophelia's computer. It reads: "What is your mother's maiden name?" Think back to where Ophelia's mother has been present thus far.
From Ophelia's dad's obituary, we know that her mother's maiden name was Brooks.
This email was sent on 02/08/97. By looking at the calendar, we can see that the Monday after this date was on 02/10.
The next questions are more freeform and can be answered however you so choose, BUT some answers will merit different results :3
"Did she suffer?"
"Did you enjoy it?"
"What is your best friend's name?"
"Did she suffer?"
"Did you enjoy it?"
"What is your best friend's name?"
After answering these last questions, Ophelia sends you a fax :) You should grab that :)
Also! If you're gathering comics, nows the time to find it. It should be very visible :)
Ophelia - Desktop Section
Dolly has once again set you loose on the desktop, go through the new relevant conversations and clear out your notifications! :EEInspect:
Dolly isn't the biggest fan of finding out you still have the ability to receive emails. Oooo a blinky boo downloader! From one of the relevant fantome conversations it sounds like downloading this lil guy is a bad idea. You should totally download him.
Yay! Hi blinkyboo !!!! Listen to his instructions now, he's your bulb in shining armor!
Dolly says he took inspiration from your own files. Where might files related to an infection go?
Into quarantine of course! ViraShield holds the infected files. All of these files are unified by a single common assertion. Based on this, what is the infection that leaves rot in its wake? (Psst! Reminder, the password is CASE SENSITIVE!)
Who might CT be referring to sending something to? Again, the relevant fantome convos are very helpful here. And of course blinkyboo's fun facts are always oh so educational!
From this we know that they wanted to send a zip bomb to dearlyalli.
But once you get the zipbomb, Dolly won't let you open it!
How can you incapacitate him so you can open this bomb?
By doing another Clean-up, Dolly will be locked and you will be able to open the Zip Bomb.
Spiderface - Room Section
Upon entering Spiderface's room, you are met with a notice from one of the admins of Crypt-X discussing cold-case leaks. Your task is simple: gather 5 victims' names and the different states their bodies were found in. All of the names and descriptions can be found throughout the users "rooms" within the room. Roomception.
Fun note: once you have gathered all of the evidence that can be found in a given room, the next time you visit those rooms they will now be destroyed. Spiderface leaves a lot of fun things to read on the walls!~
You begin in the account of InsectWiz, otherwise known as Cricket. He's a stoner with a passion for conspiracy theories and making MANY Crypt-X accounts that get swiftly banned. This account seems where he still discusses serious topics, but in a less serious manner than other accounts you will get to.
The first name can be found on the railing right by "An unappetizing half-eaten abandoned plate of hotdogs." Your words, not mine.
SenorSeymour, your next account for exploration, can be found through both Cricket's message board and blog posts. He's a no-nonsense kind of guy, but also a big loser. Where Cricket is more playful with his posts, Seymour is a hardass. Despite his outward disdain for other users who romanticize Spiderface and his crimes, Seymour also engages in such proclivities.
The book on SenorSeymour's railing has a list of names of people who might be the "Sawblade woman."
The last name on the list is particularly of note as it draws a direct connection between the name and her cause of death. Shannon Barnett got nailed to a wall.
A typewriter found near the back of the room gives us another description of a body, one of an "adult female who seems to have been mechanically sawed from her left shoulder down the length of her abdomen."
SenorSeymour's account then leads you to Null1321462 (Null for short) found on Seymour's postboard. This account is likely owned by Cricket as well, but is his more anonymous and serious account.
The first piece of evidence we can find in Null's room is on his post board, specifically the post titled "Breaking the habit."
Turning our attention to the posts made on Null's account, one user on the message board stands out: 3hdD63_e8kQ. This account is password protected, but you don't have any hints for what that password could be. Yet.
By now you may have noticed the ravings of one xX_rh1nos_Xx floating around the other accounts' message boards. Rhinos is a very enthusiastic fangirl of Spiderface, and while her antics put his destruction onto a pedestal, she does provide some helpful information to go to your goal.
On her walls you will find many a piece of Spiderface fanart and- Oh! There's his character card as well!
Rhinos gives us a name and description in her post titled "crazy for gutzz !!" Maxwell Garrison had his guts pulled out.
After submitting unificationofparousia, you have now unlocked 3dhD63_e8kQ's account. Explore this room.
Clicking the photo of the sluts will take you to your desktop momentarily, where Spiderface will gift you a stabbed heart. How can you use this in relation to some of the body descriptions you've collected thus far?
You put it on the chair! Oh hi Spiderface-
Now to put your notes to good use. Match the names to the bodies.
Spiderface - Desktop Section
Once again Dollhouse has taken untitled hostage, and once again you have been set loose onto your desktop. Dolly specifically references how "your old chats hold plenty of buried files and applications." Keep this in mind for your exploration :3
You need this serial key to activate the software Slushie is sending to you. The key can be found in the file on your desktop titled "keys.txt". Some more exploration through your conversations will reveal how exactly this key is labeled.
Looking through the relevant conversation on grapeline reveals a mention of something called ZX. Slushie confides in Emci and Kitty about how someone - presumably his dad - left ZX open again, this time showing a picture of a skinned woman.
ForenZX is now installed! Now you need the name of an authorized user… who was that detective trio8 were talking about before?
Mister detective Harris Boone! But uh oh. It looks like he's been unauthorized :(
In the trio8 fantome convo that follows, Slushie suggests that they "might have to brute force this one." Using what happened to Harris Boone as inspiration, how might you brute force ZX ?
By slicing into it!
Now that you're in ZX, it's time to play more detective. Match the writing to the crime scene images, and once you've completed that task correctly, you will soon regain Untitled.exe.
Anita - Room Section
Your first course of action upon entering is always to EXPLORE !!! Anita has only 3 (three!) rules for you to follow, and they seem fairly simple, don't they?
Starting the first activity, Anita introduces you to her cereal brand game of Sillyman ! Don't worry if the secret words stump you, Anita loves to give second, third, or even fourth chances!
The first word is surprise, but hmmmm. It looks like you're missing a letter to complete the next one! Maybe those letters on the floor can help?
Oooh look! A convo file in the Activity 1 folder! You should see what it- Oh ok. Awesome. 3/3 rules broken!
Now that you've torn off Anita's training wheels, it seems shes given you more free reign of the rest of the room. Unfortunately she also took away the door :( Time to see what convo she stopped you from reading earlier and play some wordsearch!
Now is also the perfect time for you to grab the comic in the drawer :)
She's locked it away :( Now the only way she'll let you get it back is if she's distracted :( Look through your files and conversations to see if something in there might of assistance.
In the pinned trio8 fantome conversation beginning with Slushie saying "Finally done.", Kitty mentions something about closing Anita with task manager. You should try doing that.
With that, you have successfully gotten through Anita's route room.
Billie - Room Section
Wow, Billie's text was right! This room is super cute! I'm totally NOT minding the pile of flesh on the floor. Nu uh. Not at all. Billie has a lot to say, so I highly recommend you click everything that is able to be clicked.
Much can be learned from Billie's walls. Like how those three guys on the wall to your left upon entering are her boyz! And theres also Spiderface. Honorary boy.
Further over on the wall is her character card! Yoink!
And even fuuuurther into the room is her diary! You have so much practice being a snooping snooper, this'll be a piece of… sushi! I guess. Billie is very descriptive about what she's wearing at all these different events, keep that in mind.
In Billie's wardrobe, you need to help figure out the Perfect outfits for each scenario Billie proposes to you. Billie's diary is a very useful resource for you to use here.
slumber party, senior prom, mall date, spark room
(Hint: only the hair, tops, and bottoms really matter! Don't worry about getting the makeup right.
After completing Billie's dressup, Billie requests that you help her stab Spiderface. She's left you a sticky note on the counter with instructions on how to get her knife. Get snacking! AND you get to snack to the lovely sounds of Billie singing the itsy bitsy spider to you! Billie's version, at least.
Billie's next meal order sure is peculiar. I'm not sure if I've seen any teeth laying around here, but you're nothing if not resourceful! The fridge looks like its full of helpful tools you might be able to use here :3
You now have the pliers in your possession. Show no hesitation!
Now you've successfully procured Billie's switchblade. Billie has a message for yo- !
The room has significantly changed since the encounter with Kitty I mean the Terror. Billie's diary has changed into Kitty's, giving you a look into Kitty's thoughts the night of her death. Kitty tells us what she wore that day just like Billie, but none of Billie's clothes look like they could be used for Kitty's outfit. Where else in Billie's room have you seen clothing? (Psst! This is also where you find the comic!)
Grabbing all the clothes off of the hanger, you are now able to create what Kitty was wearing. Almost! Take a look around the room now, what else has changed?
Clicking on the folder titled "KILL_ROOM" takes you to. Well. The kill room. Hi Kitty we just need to um. Grab this real quick. Sorry about that
Putting the scalp into the wardrobe, you can finally dress Billie as Kitty with complete accuracy.
Billie - Desktop Section
Dollhouse is distressed by the sudden influx of stickynotes. He can cry about it. At the end of Dollhouse's intro he does mention a new folder being left just for him. Check the new folder out!
Do the silly internet quizzesssss do them do them NOW. "myevillittlequiz" looks more involved than the others however… your conversations in fantome/grapeline will help you figure out your overall goal with this quiz in particular.
Fun fact: some of the quiz results trigger getting new fantome convos! SO DO THE QUIZZES
From the pinned fantome convo starting with "FINALLYYY DONE WITH THE QUIZZES" sent by Kitty, we know that "myevilittlequiz" is the secret quiz she was working on to test Emci and Slushie on how much they pay attention to what she says. From this we also know that a part of the quiz is related to billie's dress-up. You should check that out :3
So instead of finding out which untitled character you are, you are actually trying to get all of the answers that Kitty would say.
- Answer: taking everyone i love down with me!!!!!!!!
- Answer: FLESH !!!!!!
- Answer: broken promises
- Answer: mind games !! its all about the cat & mouse chase >:3
- Answer: A nice cozy home surrounded by green
- Answer: sixth
- Answer: I WANT TO EAT YOU !!! :3
- General consensus: "no"
After completing Kitty's quiz, she's given you a present! View the DVD, and now you have finally earned untitled.exe.
Meaty - Room Section
Immediately upon entering Meaty's room you are met with a tellnet convo between trio8 about why they made "i" for inventory instead of "e". I think they're silly.
Meaty's first post ("INTERNET !!") gives you a general introduction to who she is, but her second post ("OOTD and BEST FRIEND !!") gives you your next course of action: its dress up time !
Unlike Billie's room, Meaty's dress-up is completely freeform. All you need to do is use your different unique special mind to think up a coord that you find cutie-ful !
Now that you've dressed Meaty, you are tasked with Feeding the Pig. Before you do that, I do suggest you try to feed the other things in the room, aside from the one and only Pompom. We love her, but she can wait for just a teensy bit!
Clicking on the closet reveals this. Flesh creation. Maybe it would like some cake? No? Okay :( How about this cute piggy. Oink.
Ok NOW its feeding Pompom time :3 but it looks like the cake wasn't enough! You'll need to get more treats for Pompom, lest she waste awayyyy. With each creation you feed to meaty, the more morsels you can feed Pompom and in turn the more Meaty grows! She just has to take a piece for herself you see. Alicia, 24 is hitting up your line.
She took the skull teacup, but she truly is insatiable. How about the whole kettle? Wow, Pompom's so hungry she can eat… literally everything in this room it seems!
The tea table, the baby doll, the nightstand and the posters… even the rug! Will it ever be enough?
Now you need to feed Pompom every single piece of Kitty fanart you have access to.
OMG! So many cat pictures all of these are so cutie. Keep these in mind as you explore what's new from Meaty's run.
Your next course of action is first referenced in the trio8 fantome convo beginning with Kitty saying "the fanart was so cute it made me wanna cry". In this convo, Slushie reveals that he's done making Kitty's new OS. Both Slushie and Emci insist to Kitty that because she will be starting fresh, she needs to make stronger, preferably randomized, password. Kitty bemoans needing to memorize said-password, and is in turn told to write it down on paper.
From the relevant dms Emci has with Kitty, Kitty says that shes babysitting last minute and that she'll write down her new randomized password down somewhere. She also says she will send pics to Emmie.
Moving over to grapeline, the convo had on July 18th, 2015 reveals that when Kitty says she's babysitting, it actually means she'll be catsitting a cute little calico named Peep(!!!).
All of this combined information tells you three things:
The first piece of information directs you to the login screen on the hard drive.
For the second piece, looking through the cat pics on the hard drive, there are more than one calico cat to coo over but only one with the name Peep! First showcased in the image titled "peeping", there are many other images of her found throughout the folder. The rest are titled, in order, "payattentiontomeee", "canicaeyes", "calicocutie", and "bignoggin". Look closely at all of these images, what else can you find within them?
You can find a sticky note! With Kitty's OS password written in plain sight!
Now all that's needed is to input this password into Kitty's OS and viola voilá! You now have access to Kitty's virtual machine. Dolly is very proud of you. Look at him clap!
Unfortunately he doesn't let you explore Kitty's desktop at all. Rude! He does leave you one file however, you should read that :p
So Pompom works by file association right? What will she give you if you feed her the README file? More files to explore!
Take this at your own pace! I highly suggest you closely examine each file you are given, as all of these files were special to Kitty for one reason or another. and some files even give you extra things if you open them… just sayingggg…
There are also Extra Special files that come back after being fed to Pompom. In order to fully digest them, you should feed them to Pompom Again so they come out looking like This:
Fill the belly!

Mikey - Room Section
Follow Mikey's gaze! He will guide you where you need to go.
While Mikey yells at you about whoever's room you came from last, go ahead and explore his room. You can learn a lot about a person by the pngs they populate their room with! Feast your eyes upon his many posters, and make sure to grab his autograph and character card!
As you scroll down, Mikey seems to be infiltrating their show more and more until he has taken over completely. Scrolling to the bottom, Mikey butts in and - yet again - alters your reality.
The thumbnails now appear glitched, with each providing a certain part of a phrase. The grey thumbnails, when clicked, trigger a trio8 tellnet convo about a password being changed, seemingly by no one within trio8 themselves.
Walk back around the room to view it from outside. RobNBert's backdrop has been replaced by the background of the >oneway vod.
Jumping over the runtime bar back into the room, the far wall from where the normal entrance would be now shows what the >oneway vod's comment section looked like when the video was still up on the xo.dos site.
One commenter notes a certain timestamp and how they wonder if that is when the killer's name is said: how can you use this to hear the killer's name yourself?
Dragging the playhead to the 00:31:12 minute mark causes the audio to play and your folder browser to open. Present are two files: "one.txt" and "We are one.wav". First reading the text file and then clicking the .wav file, Mikey infiltrates your desktop, changing the files into "passreq.txt" and "static_ambiance.wav", respectively.
passreq.txt includes a note from Slushie regarding a stubborn password that continuously changes back from what he tries to change it to. Slushie notes that the password still has spaces, is case sensitive, and has a special character. The place to input said-password becomes clear upon clicking the static_ambiance file. Where have you have seen discussion of mysteriously changing passwords before?
Revisiting the video list, the parts of the phrase mentioned earlier will be especially of use to you here.
Inputting "BuRN yOuR FLeSH!" into the password section progresses you INTO THE DESKTOP SECTION !
Mikey - Desktop Section
Aww Dolly missed you~ But no time to make it up to the malware, Mikey's influence followed you! In exchange for further exploration of this desktop section, Mikey has a simple task for you to complete: just find his gaze ! He will not have you straying away for too long.
This opens up a picture of Slushie's wonderful art, accompanied by fantome notifications from the time he shared the art with Kittemmie. Clicking on these notifications takes you to the- what? he deleted the messages? How dare he! There is simply no way Kittemmie would let this stand. Nonono! This will be proven correct later when you check your email, but for now stick with the pinned fantome messages!
Slushie diverts attention off of his crimes to instead focus on the things they need to work on - namely, Billie's dress-up. However, Kitty - as much as she loves Billie! - wants to move onto other parts of the project. She suggests that they give Mikey a dress-up game as well, an opinion supported by Emci but swiftly vetoed by Slushie. Slushie says that Mikey can "make it his own damn self if he wants one so bad." And who knows! Maybe Mikey has made his own dress-up game. Only one way (ha) to find out!
Omg… he did make his own dressup game. By all means, play around with what inputs you'd like Mikey to react to. After you've had your fun with him, finish reading through the pinned fantome convos for more ideas of what to put him in ;3
The trio8 fantome conversation beginning with "That's not the problem." sent by Slushie includes his lamenting how powerful Mikey is of a character and how that makes for a more difficult writing process. Emci counters Slushie's complaint by saying "someone has to wear the wolf's skin." Well there's an idea! What would Mikey think about that outfit suggestion?
Oh, a fax! What does creepy creep have to say now?
He wants something in exchange for the game? Something intimate that only you would have? Hmm, perhaps further exploration of the applications you haven't opened yet will provide more clues.
Opening your email, you have a new one from Kitty titled "about the other night :p!". This email was written three days after the deleted convo you first opened fantome to. In it, Kitty reveals that she did indeed save the conversation, stashing it in Billie's folder for safe keeping (and easy Emmie access). Given how cagey Slushie seems about this convo, it must have been something pretty emotionally vulnerable, right? Maybe this is that "intimate" something you need to send to get the game from Faxcreep.
Ohhh yes it HAS to be this. Peak intimacy on display here, 10/10 no notes. So you feed the file into the fax machine but… where exactly do you send it?
Faxcreep had opened his request by saying "I'll get to the point." This language may or may not ring a bell for you, but it's something that has been present throughout your entire playthrough. Take a closer look at grapeline.
Sending the file to (231)555-0149 is a success, and Mr. Creepy gladly takes this intimate, vulnerable, memory. He keeps his end of the deal and directs you to the USB (found in Squeaky DVD) to find RT's build of Untitled. And there's also this bag thing? What's that all about?
Well, no matter! You have now completed Mikey's room.
Final Act
Dolly has been shunted to the side enough! He's got a game for you to play. The key to this gauntlet of puzzles is to remember all of the different ways you've solved puzzles before. Every room has been leading up to this final amalgam of puzzles.
Dolly's first question, "Do you want to play dolls?", serves as the trigger for the first puzzle: two options have been described. The hoodie, an article which holds a bittersweet memory, and the well-worn leather jacket.
"What will you wear?"
Think back, who does this question remind you of?
Billie! Upon opening Billie's dress-up, you'll be met with the voices of Billie and the newscaster dueling for your attention. The newscaster describes the outfit worn by the killer in the >oneway vod.
Two new fashion choices are waiting for her (you!): the aforementioned hoodie and leather jacket. Think hard on what you choose, once you click there's no going back!
Before you move on to solving the next puzzle, now is the perfect time to check your fantome dms! The pinned dms will give you an idea of what ending you've gotten.
Dolly's next direct instructions read as follows: "Open the bag. Pack the tool you need. And find yourself again." You've finally figured out what the bag deal was about from earlier. The bag can still be found in the USB in Squeaky DVD. By now it's becoming clear that we are simulating the actions that Slushie made leading up to Kitty's death. Thinking back to the descriptions of the crime, what was the tool Slushie packed?
Putting the file slicer in the bag moves you forward…
INTO THE INTERMISSION ! Dolly has another fun game to play. Be nice to the snake! It's such a cute snake.
After your horrific failure, Dolly sends you to read your new (and old) emails. Once you're done, go ahead and close the application.
Well well well, look who's calling again. Faxcreep wants the password to the diary. In his quest to receive it from you, he has sent a screenshot of it to the USB and tells you to "Feed it to your internal algorithm, look through her files, whatever." He makes a reference to you having her computer, nudging you further into the direction of your next steps. This language is heavily reminiscent of your tasks in Meaty's room.
Log back into Kitty's virtual machine.
With Pompom now on your desktop, you are able to feed her the diary screenshot! In turn, she spits out Kitty's password protected diary. Hints to the password are hidden throughout the desktop, the most direct one being the sticky note that reads "passw reminder: childhood pet name + big big biiig date !!! NO CAPS (easy for my little hackers to guess <3)"
From this we know the two components of the password, and these components can be found within fantome+the hard drive and grapeline respectively.
To find the childhood pet name, there's a couple clues that'll lead you. First, in the fantome convo where Kitty talks about her old cat, she mentions that her cat was a ragdoll. This leads you to the harddrive full of cat pics, one of which being an image of a sweet ragdoll titled "my_sweet_annie". The image is dated 2011/03/08, making the times line up with the times mentioned in the fantome convo. And so the childhood pet name is Annie!
For the big big biiig date, the very first conversation in grapeline has you covered. 08082012 will go down in history (>w<)
Putting it all together, you're able to enter Kitty's diary with annie08082012. Read through her diary carefully - each August 8th shares something new.
The August 8th diary entry for 2020 contains a download link to the demo. Download that.
Mikey takes the reigns here for a bit, come back when he lets you loose again :3 Or, well. When Anita takes the reigns from him!
Anita directs you to "Show me how well you can play along with me! Then, if you seem ready, I just might let you peek at that silly game you can't let go of." She's got a new word for you to learn together! You remember how to get the letters, don't you?
With each correct letter, Anita will have more and more to say, so be sure to give her time to speak! You don't want to miss anything!
Once you've successfully gotten the word (parasite), Anita will finally allow you to play the game. (psst btw! You need to click after the sillyman is done, that'll trigger the next steps!)
From here on out, you will experience the end of the game! You did it!
ENDINGS GUIDE
After you beat every ending, check ALL your folders after! Every ending gives you new treats— typically found in your Pictures folder, but some endings give you treats in your Downloads folder, and even Homedata! Look around so you don't miss anything!
Hate
To get this ending, you have to do a run where you go out of your way to cause more suffering. Learning of what they went through is not enough, you have to disrespect them in death and turn the love Emci once had for them into hate. Bitterness.
This Emci is nothing like the Emmie we learn about through the desktops. This Emci is a cruel thing, controlled by a force who thrives on the suffering of Kitty and Slushie. Prolonging their pain and adding insult to injury is necessary.
Confirmed successful route:
- Do not burn the Love photo in Fiona
- Card/Comics collection optional?
- Answer yes to “Did she suffer?” and “Did you enjoy it?” Then, answer “Kitty” for best friend.
- Do not enter the temp password in Spiderface
- Answer “Yes” to “Is this the way it always ends?” in Billie
- Send Slushie's breakup .exhm to Z6.
- Choose the leather jacket (Deny the comfort)
Sacrifice
To get this ending, you have to sacrifice the relationship Emci had with Kitty and Slushie. You learn all there is to learn, you scavenge every corner, you know everything about them and yet… you reject the relationship. You sacrifice it and pull away from them both.
Emci is not malicious and does not enjoy causing suffering, but he is an unnecessary martyr with a result not worth the pain. Separating himself from Kitty and Slushie only leads to more pain, such as it did when they were alive. Now all they went through, the murder, the constructs, the after life within UNTITLED.exe, it all becomes for nothing, because even now Emci sacrifices all they were for a lonely ending.
What you do:
- no ARG steps in Fiona/Spiderface/Ophie
- All comics, all cards, fill belly
- yes she suffered, no I did not enjoy it, “no one” is my best friend
- get all of Billie's quizzes answers (except for the character quiz), before doing Meaty
- no this isn't the way it always ends
- In Meaty's room, successfully put together Kitty's, Slushie's, and Emci's outfits in the avatar maker. (TIP: Try to find their outfits in Meaty's website first, as it's much faster!
- Default fax creep answer.
- Collect Mikey's autograph.
- All the Mikey dressup prompts that get you extra stuff (Tekton, Muppet, Baby)
- Darkfox opened
- Pick hoodie
Ruin
To get this ending, you have to cause ruin, and commit the choice which will betray the trust Kitty and Slushie placed on you.
Emci ruins his intimate memories of Kitty and Slushie by sharing them with the undeserving. He sees the consequences of the murder, and the way Kitty and Slushie are ruined by the public perception. Misrepresented and judged without knowing the truth.
Emci ruins what was left of his relationship with Kitty and Slushie, and breaks the last of his promises by letting outsiders look into something special and private.
The trust is broken, the relationship disrespected. They are in ruins.
What you do:
- Sending the maximum number of faxes to the creepy creep creep (4)

Burn
To get this ending, you have to do a run where you take nothing, learn nothing, do nothing, so that when you are left with nothing else, all you have left to do is burn.
This Emci learned nothing. Oblivious and careless. He let the foundation burn to the ground.
What you do:
- Nothing. Don’t collect anything at all. No comics, no cards, no belly!
Love
To get this ending, you have to do a run where you learn a good majority of what there is to learn of TRIO8, the events that happened, collect all there is to collect, and go out of your way to remember everything special. You don’t act on cruelty or selfishness. It’s all for them. For their memory. For the love.
This Emmie is close to the Emmie we learn about through the journey of oneway.exe. Loving, loyal, caring, and facing his place in the horrible tragedy that took place.
It’s the LOVE, after all. Emci acknowledges his place in that love, and remembers the feeling.
What you do:
- Collect all character cards
- Collect all comics
- Do Fiona and Ophie's ARG
- Type both Kitty and Slushie in Ophelia’s room
- Putting the photo back in the furnace
- Collect all of the belly images, including onemonthaway.png, which requires doing the ARG part for Fiona and Ophelia beforehand.
- Get all of Billie's quizzes answers (except for the character quiz) before Meaty
- Get Andy's 21st art (you need to read the birthday exhm)
- Collect Mikey's autograph
- Potentially, type "baby", "muppet", and "tekton" in Mikey's dressup.
- Pick the hoodie, face the truth and give the comfort.
Together
This is the most common ending you get by playing normally without trying to do anything special but not trying to do anything evil, either.
It's not exactly bad, but it's not exactly good either. It's kind of like a friendzoning ending. You learn a bit about TRIO8, the constructs, and you could say you care a fair amount! But!
Emci's love just can't be that casual. Not Emmie. So, this Emmie still has a lot left to learn.
What you do:
- Collect at least some cards, comics, and/or belly
- Not have everything required for the Love ending, but have more than the Nothing Burn requires
Devotion
To get this ending, you have to do a run where you devote yourself entirely to TRIO8, UNTITLED.exe, and everything there is to learn of them. It’s many steps above just love, as nothing can stop you from wanting more. From needing more. From being obsessively devoted to the point where it’s a sickness. Even sending every possible fax becomes an act of devotion, as the purpose is to learn more of the ones Emci loves, and ultimately turns out to be at the expense of the nasty little fax creep.
This Emmie is the Emmie we grew to meet from Fantome. The Emmie we know he ultimately is. Loyal, loving, obsessive, controlling, complicated, calculating, and as expected, deeply deeply devoted. He knows best, and he acts on it.
A successful run:
- Have endings 1-6 completed.
- Collect all cards, comics, and belly (including the Siren, so do Billie first).
- Have DarkFox opened.
- Do NOT do Fiona ARG at first, but do Spiderface and Ophelia.
- Collect Mikey's autograph
- Visit Mikey after doing Fiona without the ARG, send the .exhm file of their corrupted photograph, alongside any other .exhm files that the creep does NOT accept. If possible in the first Mikey run, send 4 failure faxes until you get the “What are we? Lol” fax.
- Get all possible extra content. This includes typing "tekton", "baby", "muppet", and....... Z6's name (It's possible to figure it out, but I don't want to spoil how because it's fun! If you need help with it you can message me on discord or email me! My discord is @estellasol, and there's a lot of lore to share...) into the Mikey dressup.
- Do the Fiona ARG this time!
- In Meaty's room, successfully put together Kitty's, Slushie's, and Emci's outfits in the avatar maker. (TIP: Try to find their outfits in Meaty's website first, as it's much faster!
- Get Andy’s 21st art (you need to read the birthday exhm)
- Guess what? Mikey again. <3 A big thing in this route is to send all possible faxes to the creep. It takes replaying Mikey 5 times. Get the RUIN end fax, send the breakup fax, all winning fax, and all failure faxes.
- Pick the hoodie, face the truth and give the comfort.
Tip: Check DarkFox during your Final Act!
Because of how delicate this route is, for the most part, the best order is:
Fiona (no ARG), 2. Spiderface (ARG), 3. Ophelia (ARG), 4. Billie (GET ALL QUIZZES ANSWERS, EXCEPT CHARACTER QUIZ), 5. Mikey (send corrupted photo+get ruin fax), 6. Fiona (do ARG), 7. Meaty (ADD ALL TO BELLY), 8. Mikey, 9. Mikey, 11. Mikey, 12. Mikey, 13. Anita
THE POINT IS TO GET EVERY SINGLE THING YOU CAN. YOU ARE DEDICATED. YOU ARE DEVOTED. SEE EVERYTHING.
Good order for .exhm files to send the creepy creep:

ARG ACTIONS EXPLANATION
This section explains the ARG-related steps referenced throughout certain endings. While the game later provides in-game guidance for most of these, they were originally discovered through community investigation.
Fiona
In Fiona’s website, placing the burnt photograph over the newspaper detailing the murder reveals the following text:
“The tale slips through your thoughts. You read it, and you let yourself forget. Then, return your love where you found it. Leave it to burn.”
This is an instruction. After reading the newspaper, place the burnt photograph into the furnace. Doing so unlocks a new Tellnet conversation that is required for later ARG steps.
Spiderface
In the account 3hdD63_e8kQ, a developer conversation can be found within the site’s code. Kitty mentions losing the temporary password she created for the account and not remembering where she left it.
The Tellnet conversation unlocked through Fiona begins with Kitty finding that password and sharing it with Slushie.
This means the password obtained from Fiona’s Tellnet can be entered directly into 3hdD63_e8kQ in-game, unlocking another Tellnet and progressing the ARG.
Ophelia
The game now subtly guides players toward this conclusion, but originally the community discovered Slushie’s name through the Tellnet message stating “no slushie needed.”
At the time, Slushie’s name was not publicly known. Once discovered, players attempted entering it into the “who is your best friend” prompt, which revealed screenshots of Slushie’s website and opened further investigation.
When referring to the Ophelia ARG step now, it specifically means entering both “Kitty and Slushie” as the answer. Emci always had two best friends.
