The website itself features nine floating eyes, each showing a riddle when clicked on. Solving each riddle in turn gives you part of the password.

Popular online theories propose the game will be a sequel to AI: Файлҳои Somnium. This is supported by the extensive eye motif (a major theme of that game), and that game’s designer Akira Okada tweeting about the website. Using a mystery to unveil a mystery game would also be apropos.
