Doors 1

There are 2 numbered doors :

The 5-numbered door and the 4-numbered door.

[9] abducted [4] and makes [4] and [1] to register their number to the 5-numbered door, and then himself.

419 --> 4 + 1 + 9 = 14 --> 1 + 4 = 5

[9] goes alone to the 5-numbered door. After 81 seconds, [9] died from disobeying the 3-5 persons rule per door.

The remainin persons are :

[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

The plan is :

Plan A

4-numbered door : [3][5][6][8]

3568 --> 3+5+6+8 = 22 --> 2+2 = 4

5-numbered door : [1][2][4][7]

1247 --> 1+2+4+7 = 14 --> 1+4 = 5


There will be an option to change the plan into switching [5] with [1] and [4]:

Plan B

4-numbered door : [3][6][8] [1][4]

3568 --> 3+6+8+1+4 = 22 --> 2+2 = 4

5-numbered door : [1][2][7] [5]

1247 --> 2+7+5 = 14 --> 1+4 = 5


I choose plan B. No one left behind just [9] is dead.


Digital Root

The digital root function is to add all digit. If the result is greater than 9 then all the digit is added again until the result is a one-digit number.


Here is an example.

The number is 568

5+6+8 = 19 --> 1 + 9 = 10 --> 1 + 0 = 1

The digital root of 568 is 1.


The number is 75236

7+5+2+3+6 = 23 --> 2+3 = 5

The digital root of 75236 is 5

Nonary Game rules

Each person will given a unique number within the range 1 to 9. 

Here is the list of the 9 persons nicknames and their number.

[1] ACE

[2] SNAKE

[3] SANTA

[4] CLOVER

[5] JUNPEI (The main character)

[6] JUNE

[7] SEVEN

[8] LOTUS

[9] ??? (Died before he has a nickname)

I won't refer them with their names from now on, i'll refer them from their number.


The 9 persons is abducted and placed in a sinking ship that will sink in 9 hours. The goal of the game is to survive and find the exit. In the ship there are unique numbered doors within the range 1 to 9.

These numbered doors is locked. To open the door the 9 persons have to use register their numbers to open the doors. These are the criteria to open the doors :

1. The registered number's digital root must equal with the number on the door (i will explain about digital root later)

2. Only 3-5 persons can go through 1 door.

3. All person that is registered to the door must go through the door.

4. A person that is not registered to the door can't go through the door.


So basically 3-5 persons register their number until the number has been satisfied and they should go though the door, no leaving a registered person and also no adding another non-registered person.


The door will open for 9 seconds. Anyone who disobey the rule will have a bomb detonates on their stomach at 81 seconds, which mean dead.


The exit is a 9 numbered door. ( a numbered door with number 9)

9 hours, 9 persons, 9 doors

I know the title of the game maybe a sound a little wrong, persons should be people but the title of the game used persons. So instead of people i will use the word persons.

9 hours, 9 persons, 9 doors is a story about 9 people who get abducted by a mysterious person (which we don't know the person is a he or a she), this person called zero.

the 9 persons is chosen for a game called nonary, a game that the bet is their life.

Change Game 1

I've played SRW L until episode 22 right now. But i don't think i'll post about SRW L again...

Btw SRW L made me curious and watched some movie and anime series. First Macross Frontier movie, Evangelion movie 1 & 2, Kurogane no Linebarrel episode 25 & 26 (i haven't watched the 24 first episodes) and the last is complete series of dancouga nova. There are many stories, which i didn't understand before, now i understand.

Anyway... Right now i play a puzzle-novel NDS game the title is 9 hours, 9 persons, 9 doors. My post will be brief and i'll also write my speculation for the ending of the game.

Chapter 2 : Training, Mach drills

I didn't understand the first half of the story at all. I only know Ikki and Alice is going back to the base? that have been destroyed on chapter 1. 

The background of this chapter is from Kotetsushin Jeeg series. The other half of the stroy is about Jeeg training, where tsubaki from Jeeg series is explaining about the training but Jeeg's main character, Kenji,fell asleep. Tsubaki is mad at Kenji of course. And then another Jeeg character, Koji and Sayaka from Mazinga Z along Boss and his two sidekick Nuke and Mucha also from Mazinga Z decided to teach Kenji a lesson. Before the training begins, Kenji mecha need to a part from tsubaki's Big Shooter to form Jeeg, this process is called "Build Up". But when the part is shot from Tsubaki's Big Shooter, Koji with his Mazinga Z launches rocket punch toward Kenji, The build up process is failed. The other units are also attacking Kenji. Tsubaki who is mad at Kenji also attacking Kenji. After a while Kenji succeed to "Build Up" Jeeg.

Now for the Mach Drill training, Mach Drill is a part also from Tsubaki's Big Shooter. But Tsubaki is still mad at Kenji and send Mach Drill with an incredible speed, making Jeeg fails to catch the Mach Drill. Before the real training start, they are attacked by enemies, now there's no time for training, they should take care of the enemy first.

We have 6 new units :
1. Jeeg from Jeeg series with Kenji as its pilot
2. Big Shooter from Jeeg series with a guy that i don't know his name as its pilot and tsubaki as its co-pilot
3. Build Angel from Jeeg series with a girl that i don't know her name as its pilot
4. Mazinga Z from Mazinga Z series with Koji as its pilot
5. Afurodai A from Mazinga Z series with Sayaka as its pilot
6. BossBorot from Mazinga Z series with Boss as its pilot and his two sidekick as co-pilot.

The enemies' boss has an unpenetratable armor in this stage. No matter how strong your attack is the damage will be 0.

At turn 3 we get 4 reinforcement consist of Rushbird, Painkiller, Hind Kind and a new unit called Deceive from Linebarrel with Sizuna as its pilot and Izuna as its co-pilot. Like Hind Kind's pilot and kouichi, Some of Izuna attack's animation have Izuna on her berserk/crazy mode.

After all enemies are defeated, the enemies' boss is the only enemy left but it has a unpenetrable armor. And then Jeeg used Mach Drill from Big Shooter to destroy the enemy's armor.

Chapter 1 : Chosen Boy Kurogane

The character name in this chapter is all wrong, i will update it later when i learn their names.


The main original character is appear at this stage. The main original are two characters. The boy named ichi-something (i think, i will call him ikki for now) and the girl named AL-3 called Alice.

The background of the chapter is from a series that i didn't know. The series called Linebarrel. The story begins when ikki and some characters from linebarrel (all of them writen in kanji, i didn't know all their names, one of them is called Kouichi, is talking about super robot that has been on news

lately (i think). Dancouga, Godannar, Gaiking, Combattler and Jeeg has been on news lately. I think Kouichi likes Dancouga a lot, while Ikki likes all of them. And there is also shinji from evangelion bullied. The bully told shinji to buy a curry bread within 10 minutes, but Kouichi comes and then i lost the story then, but i believe that Kouichi told the bully that he will buy the curry bread. The scene changed into a building, there is a news that a mecha named Linebarrel that is coming is suddenly changed its course (that's all i get in this scene).

The next scene Ikki comes to a base? (maybe). There he meet Alice and his brother (which i don't know his name) and an old man named glaive. There is also a android called haruno there. Glaive then show Ikki and his brother 2 mecha the first mecha is called rushbird and the other is straybird. Suddenly the base? is attacked by enemy. Glaive is either dead or unconcious, while Ikki's brother, with the android haruno, take Straybird and left. Some the planet's grunts are coming but all of them are defeated by the enemies. Ikki, with Alice, take Rushbird and fight the enemies.

At turn 2, at north, Kouichi hear some sound. The Linebarrel is fall near Kouichi. Inside there is an unconcious woman. After the woman regained her conciousness, Kouichi learn that the girl got an amnesia, she didn't even remember her name. And then Kouichi goes in into the Linebarrel with the woman and defeats some enemy's grunt. Kouichi then realise that this is what he called power.

And then Dancouga Nova and 2 units from Linebarrel are coming. I don't know what Kouichi said at this moment but i think Kouichi has gone a little paranoid and crazy when he know that he now has the power. And for some reason Dancouga Nove (maybe because Kouichi has gone a little berzerk) is attacking Linebarrel. Kouichi is startled getting attacked by the Mecha that he likes (i think). And then i think Kouichi accused Dancouga Nova as a fake. And now he's gone real crazy now, he wants to defeat Dancouga Nova.


The two units from Linebarrel are Painkiller and Hind Kind (i think i got the name wrong again).

And the major enemy is are kagutsuchi from Linebarrel with Demitori as its pilot, Idaten from Linebarrel and Altlong Gundam from Gundam Wing Endless Waltz with Wufei as its pilot. Kouichi with his Linebarrel is a neutral unit. After all enemy defeated, Rushbird, Dancouga Nova and the other two surrounds Linebarrel, but Linebarrel still managed to escape.

The two Linebarrel unit is working for an organization called JUDA (i think) and i believe Ikki joins with JUDA. From now on, JUDA give a nickname "LOTUS" for Ikki and his companion.

Katoru from Gundam Wing Endless Waltz is searching the area where Linebarrel fallen and found Kouichi's curry bread.

Anyway i think the characters from Linebarrel series have berzerk/crazy mode. The pilot of Hind Kind can also gone berzerk/crazy on his final attack.
