"From somewhere far away, Junpei could hear the sound of metal squeaking. He felt his stomach tighten. There were a thousand things the sound could have been, but none of the things he could think of were good. In an attempt to distract himself, Junpei looked around the room once more. Set in the wall directly in front of him was a slightly dirty iron door. The first thing Junpei noticed about the door was the number roughly emblazoned across it. On the surface of the door, in red paint, someone had written... 5"

'Kyokugen Dasshutsu Minigame: Renda Shibou Desu', translated roughly as 'Zero Escape Mini Game: Hit the Button to Kill', was a small flash game hosted on Chunsoft's Japanese website. The goal is to help Clover inside of a gate by rapidly clicking on the door. As the gate opens, the clicking action switches from opening the gate to seemingly groping/slapping Clover's breasts. Three gates are presented, though Clover's outfit changes depending on which gate the player is presented to open. The first gate's outfit is her typical getup in Virtue's Last Reward, the second is a sukumizu (スク水), and the third is a black bikini. The third gate is notably difficult and its reward is cut short by Clover covering up her nearly-revealed breasts while K's portrait is laid over her face.
