01 FIELD INSTRUCTIONS
WHAT TO LOOK FOR.
Observe a doorway from a place you are allowed to stand. Focus on its color, size and unusual contrast with the surrounding wall or building rather than its address.
DIRECTIVE M-005 / PORTAL SURVEY
Locate a door that looks like it leads to another genre.
A cheerful door on a gloomy wall. A tiny door in an enormous building. Note the contrast.

CLASSIFIED-ISH OPERATIONAL BRIEFING / M-005
YOUR ORDINARY WORLD.
AN EXTRAORDINARY EXCUSE TO NOTICE.
An unexpected doorway can look like an entrance to a different genre entirely. A cheerful yellow door in a gray wall or an impossibly tiny hatch can make a familiar street feel like the opening scene of a story.
02 SAMPLE CASE
AN EXAMPLE REPORT.
Example report: “There is a miniature green door on a concrete wall, and it looks like it leads to the garden of a tiny wizard.”
ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE · NOT A COMMUNITY SUBMISSION03 THE NOT-SO-SECRET EXPLANATION
WHY THIS IS FUN.
Design contrasts invite imaginative storytelling. This mission is about interpretation, not testing where any door actually leads.
04 SAFETY DIRECTIVE
KEEP IT HARMLESS.
Don't open unfamiliar doors, trespass, photograph residences or reveal private building locations. A fictional description is enough.
