Layout[]
Chart Room[]
Artwork of the chart room.
The chart room is a small room with various charts and maps on the walls. The DEAD for Door 1 is just inside this room next to the entrance door. Directly across from the entrance door stands a door which leads to the wheelhouse. There is a small desk on the other side of the room. Above it is a shelf. A small box sits on top of the desk. To the right of the desk is a huge dresser which acts as a table for examining nautical charts. Its drawers are full of them.
Wheelhouse[]
The wheelhouse, or bridge, features two large steering wheels for controlling the ship. Behind the steering wheel in the front of the room is a broken compass. In the back of the room is an engine order telegraph; a device used to adjust the speed of the engine. Next to the telegraph stands the second steering wheel. This one possesses an operational compass. Near the exit of the room is a display board that keeps track of the times when the ship will arrive at each port.
Story[]
If Junpei chooses Door 1 during the voting, he travels with Ace and Clover to the chart room. After scanning their bracelets on the DEAD, Junpei tells Clover to investigate the map room, while Ace takes a look at the wheelhouse.
Pocket Watch[]
Who Killed Snake? (True Ending only)[]
Triggered by picking up the pocket watch.
All of the possibilities that can open Door 3.
When Junpei finds the pocket watch in the chart room, Ace appears at the door, asking if he could see it. Junpei yells at him for not investigating the wheelhouse. Once he leaves, Junpei decides to ask Clover about the experiment that happened in 2018. Clover states she is not interested in talking about it. She says that she can't stop thinking about who would want to kill her brother, and says that they will pay. Clover then asks Junpei who he thinks killed Snake. He says he has no idea, so she makes a list of all of the digital root combinations that can open Door 3. However, she does not include the number 9 bracelet. Clover eliminates the combinations with a 4 and 5 because Junpei knows that both of them are innocent, but she asks him if he is really not involved in Snake's murder.
He asks her to cross off the combinations with 6, stating June would never kill Snake. Junpei then thinks about what Seven said about Snake being killed by at least two people. He concludes that the only two people who could open Door 3 with Snake would be Santa and Seven. He tells Clover the combination and she says that that was her theory, but she is confused as to why Seven did not kill her in the shower room. Junpei tells her that it would not seem likely that 3 and 4 people could have killed Snake. He asks her why someone would want her brother dead. Right as she is going to tell him, Ace enters the room interrupting their conversation. He tells Junpei that he would like to speak with him in the wheelhouse. Once in the wheelhouse, Ace takes the 2 and 6 papers from the voting, revealing that he manipulated the results. Ace states he does not care about his ruse, as he still got to go through Door 1. He then secretly slips the pocketwatch back into Junpei's pocket.
Junpei's Headache (Axe Ending only)[]
Triggered by picking up the pocket watch.
When Junpei finds the pocketwatch in the chart room, Ace appears at the door, asking to see the watch. Ace leaves after Junpei yells at him to go. After Ace leaves, Junpei's head begins to hurt and he loses track of time. When he gets his bearings straight, Ace returns and asks to speak with him. Ace then takes the 2 and 6 papers from the vote out of his pocket, exposing that he cheated. Ace is unconcerned because he still got to go through Door 1. Secretly, he slips the pocketwatch back into Junpei's pocket.
After solving the puzzle, Ace, Clover, and Junpei head towards the Captain's Quarters.

Humorous Quotes[]
- Examine the compass in the screen with a steering wheel and plated windows:
- Junpei: A compass... Ace: And what destiny does it point us to...? Junpei: I really hope you don't think that sounded cool. Ace: ...
- A compass. The needle is pointing north.
- Examine the rightmost telegraph in the screen with a steering wheel and plated windows:
- Ace: Ah, a human hammer. Ace: They're often used to subdue large men like Seven. Junpei: ...What? Ace: That was a joke, of course. Junpei: Thank you, Captain Obvious. Junpei: Ace... You really kinda suck at making jokes... Ace: ... Ace: That was rather cruel...

- A steering wheel.
Let's see if it--woah! Junpei: Looks like the steering wheel moves... Ace: So it would seem. Ace: I noticed something else as well... Junpei: What's that? Ace: Well, when you move this wheel, the compass also moves. Junpei: What do you mean? Ace: The ship...it's moving... Ace: ...Ha! Tricked you, didn't I? Junpei: The wheel and the compass must be connected to one another somehow... Ace: Hmmm... Do you think that's important? Junpei: Well, let's try turning it again... - (Before getting charts) Ace: Junpei... Ace: There's no point to simply guessing like that... Junpei: Just shut up for a second!
- (After getting charts) Junpei: Steering wheel... Steering wheel...
