Backrooms

Backrooms takes players into an uncanny realm of seemingly endless, nondescript rooms and corridors, drawing on the urban legend of an alternate dimension that exists behind the veneer of everyday reality. In this first-person exploration and survival game, players find themselves inexplicably trapped in a series of liminal spaces—vast expanses of old, dilapidated offices, and empty, fluorescent-lit hallways that resonate with a quiet, persistent hum. The game’s environment is meticulously designed to evoke a sense of timeless isolation, with each room and passage eerily similar to the last, challenging players to maintain their orientation and resolve.

Escape is Only the Beginning

As the exploration deepens, the game gradually introduces subtle psychological horror elements. Players must manage their character’s sanity, which ebbs with the oppressive sameness and occasional, startling shifts in the environment. Strange sounds just out of sight and fleeting shadows hint at something more sinister lurking within the maze. Resource management and problem-solving become crucial as clues to escape—or deeper entanglement within the backrooms—appear in cryptic forms, demanding keen attention to detail and nerve to pursue. The true challenge of Backrooms lies in escaping and in uncovering the mysteries layered within its walls, where reality itself seems to fray.
