Backrooms
About Backrooms
Have you ever wondered what lies beyond the walls of reality? What if there was a hidden dimension of endless corridors and rooms, where nothing but the stench of old carpets, the hum of fluorescent lights, and the madness of mono-yellow await you? What if you could accidentally clip through the boundaries of the world and find yourself trapped in this liminal nightmare, with no hope of escape?
This is the premise of Backrooms, a game inspired by the popular creepypasta and meme of the same name. Backrooms is a horror game that challenges the player to explore and survive the infinite and randomly generated levels of the Backrooms, a mysterious and hostile place that defies logic and physics. The game features different game modes, such as a free edition where the player can wander around the first level of the Backrooms, a full edition where the player can access more levels and encounter different entities, and a co-op mode where the player can team up with up to three friends to escape the Backrooms together.
How to Play Backrooms
But how do you play this game? Here are some basic tips and rules to help you survive and enjoy this game:
• Check your watch every 30 seconds. This is crucial to maintain your sanity and avoid losing yourself in the Backrooms. Your watch will also show you your current level and your progress towards finding an exit.
• Avoid looking at It. It is a mysterious being that roams the Backrooms and will hunt you down if it senses you. You may not encounter It every playthrough, but if you do, do not look at it or it will drain your sanity faster. Run away or hide if you hear its footsteps or breathing.
• Gather resources. You will need to find items such as batteries, flashlights, food, water, and medicine to help you survive. Some items are hidden in drawers, cabinets, or lockers, while others are scattered around the rooms. Be careful not to waste your resources or carry too much weight.
• Fight or flee. Depending on your game mode, you may encounter other entities besides It. Some are harmless, some are hostile, and some are unpredictable. You can use weapons such as knives, guns, or crowbars to defend yourself, but be aware that some entities are immune to certain types of damage. You can also use stealth or distraction to avoid confrontation.
• Solve puzzles. Some levels require you to solve puzzles or find clues to progress or unlock new areas. These puzzles can range from simple codes or switches to complex non-Euclidean mazes or riddles. Pay attention to your surroundings and use your logic and intuition to solve them.
• Find an exit. Your ultimate goal is to find an exit from the Backrooms and return to reality. However, this is easier said than done. Some exits are hidden or locked behind puzzles or enemies. Some exits lead to other levels or even worse places. Some exits are fake or traps. And some exits may not exist at all.
