With no way of escaping the abandoned city, Arisu and Karube decide to play another game to extend their visas, leaving Shibuki to tend to an injured Chota. Arisu and Karube find another game arena in an apartment complex and encounter several new players, such as the mysterious Usagi, the friendly Tatta, the strong Aguni, and the sly, quiet Chishiya. Arisu also learns the meaning of each card: spades represent physical games, clubs are games based on teamwork, diamonds are a battle of wits and intellect, and hearts correlate to games of trust and betrayal. This game, a "Five of Spades" difficulty-level titled "Tag", forces the players to hide in the building from two armed attackers while also looking for a room containing two buttons that must be pressed at the same time to stop a bomb from killing them all. Arisu, Chishiya, and Usagi work together to find the room and win, though Arisu later feels guilty when he sees the attackers executed. Karube finds a radio telling them to "Return to the Beach".
