About
Explore the seemingly infinite expanse of eerily familiar levels in backrooms based on the popular creepypasta lore. Each level features different ways to escape with dangers along the way.

Realistic graphics, minimal user interfaces, and dreary ambience combine for an atmospheric horror experience that's terrified millions of players on Steam.

Explore the backrooms with a team of up to 4 players. Good luck: teammates may no-clip into other areas of the map and every member of your team must reach the exit alive to escape. No wanderer left behind.

Traverse 30+ unique levels based on backrooms lore. Don't wander far from your team, as you can easily get lost in the confusing expanse of the backrooms.

Check every corner for the many hostile entities lurking inside the backrooms. Each has their own mechanics. Learn quickly if you want to survive the horror.
Communicate with your teammates with proximity voice chat. Entities can also hear you, so stay quiet whenever you're near danger.

Muy sabroso, me duró pa hacer varios streams y está chido pai c:
This game was fun, and I recommend it if you like puzzle solving games. But, I do have to say most parts were pretty slow and confusing at times, making some levels take dozens of retries and hours of playing time. I played with two family members and it's a great game to bond over, so I do recommend playing with someone. Overall, this game was a good experience and I look forward to trying it on higher difficulties.
The game seems like it could be a good time (especially with a friend) but it does one thing that I almost can't forgive. It may sound petty, but it matters to me and perhaps will to someone else. The inability to sprint for a decent stretch is ridiculous. Any normal human being has better mobility than this. It's just plain frustrating to try to move faster, only to be slowed down to the sound of heavy breathing after about ten yards. As I said, It may sound silly, but for me it makes the game and exercise in frustration. Sadly, I am contemplating a refund.
Hab hier nen richtigen Hass Text verfasst, aber nach weiterem Spielen muss ich sagen, dass das Spiel diese Emotionen nicht verdient hat. Get Me Out. Spielt legit jedes andere Game, ausser League of Legends. Fick die Justiz ( Patrick ) ajahahahah. Hab mich nochmal 2 std reingewagt. An diesem Punkt könnte man meinen ich hab einen geisteskranken Fetisch. Rezensionen sind entweder gekauft, oder die Messlatte bei den Leuten ist geringer als die von fetten Männern. An die Entwickler, gebt mir mein Geld zurück, dann gibts ne Positive Bewertung und wir locken zusammen noch mehr Menschen in diese Algengrütze.
Buenas, este juego debería borrarse por el bien de la humanidad y para no arruinar la historia del gaming, yo como ser humano que reside en un pais que día a día se va arruinando y además es tricampeón del mundo gaste una cantidad de plata que ni puedo mencionar, podía haber gastado esa plata para una milanesa napolina. En definitiva el anime es basura y fumarlo es de idiotas (devuélvanme la plata).
fun asl w friends
With over 30+ levels of Backrooms goodness, this game and this game alone can satiate any need for Backrooms based video gaming, play alone or play with some friends, no matter what you are doing you are having a great time in this game. Spoops a plenty, lot's of puzzles, lots of enemies and jumpscares, creative gameplay, decent music (except miss me with that balloon ass, clown yellow mf'er creepy kids music music that ♥♥♥♥ made me want to cram nails in my ears), all in all I really decent game for a good price, you can easily get over 20 hours of gameplay out of this, especially playing Solo and then with Friends. 6.5/10
