Infinite Backrooms

It's good, but the Smile entity follows me to the elevator and kills me, and the battery runs out really fast—but the game is awesome.

I played the game with a friend who, like me, is a Backrooms enthusiast. We've played lots of games, such as Escape the Backrooms, Backrooms: Escape Together and Inside the Backrooms. However, I wouldn't categorise this game in the same way, even though it's a Backrooms game. If you're looking for an escape room-style game with puzzles or a story, you might not like it in its current state. However, it does have a lot of potential if the developer continues to work on it. So I'm going to review it on its own merits. I'll be honest about it and look at its pros and cons. The positive things and features are: - Every playthrough is different. Everything is randomly generated. You start at Level 0 and need to find keycards, which usually spawn in the same kind of room, to get to the next level. There are more than one key card, so it's difficult to get stuck. - You can play in multiplayer mode with friends. The voice chat has very low latency, similar to Discord. It works well enough that we didn't experience any major lags or random crashes of the lobby. - The new sanity, hunger, battery and blackout features do make the game challenging when entities are active. So it's definitely an improvement on the demo. - As far as I can tell, there are three entities. They are simple, but they don't make things easy for you. The Smiler is especially challenging when there is a blackout, as it also drains your sanity, just like staying in the dark without a flashlight. - The sounds and places have a backrooms vibe, even though the style is simple. Things to approve: - When playing in multiplayer mode, you can revive your friends. But the feature is buggy right now. We always spawn in Level 0 and get stuck in a pillar or wall. We have to wait until we die, then there's a three-minute countdown before we can respawn. I really hope this gets fixed. -The blackout seems a little too long and feels more like a 'hard mode'. I like the challenge, but the fact that the Smiler can go through walls makes it difficult. Some people might get frustrated as their batteries run out very quickly. - Adding more unique entities and new levels would be great, but I think improving the existing ones should be the first priority to make them feel special. It would be great to have more variations of pool rooms and different types of mall with isles and office rooms with different walls and floors. I would enjoy having to search more for the key cards. - The most important thing on this list is: Some kind of quest or crafting system. Something that gives you goals beyond just finding an exit. I haven't made it to the end of the released game yet because the bacteria entity killed us every time before we got there, but once we have finished it, I would like there to be more different kinds of challenges. - The music in Level Fun could be improved slightly, as the loop is quite short. - You could add some cosmetic items that can be found and collected, such as party hats in Level Fun and headphones in office rooms for example. You could also add badges or colours to the backrooms suit for every quest or achievement you complete. It would be good to have some kind of reward for doing things, so that you feel like you have achieved something. To be honest, the game is rough around the edges, but it does have potential! I like that it's NOT doing the same as Escape the Backrooms, etc. Those games are great, but I like it when people try different types of game. Don't let yourself get dragged down by bad reviews. I understand them to an extent, but that doesn't mean it can't improve. Please continue to work on this — my friend and I are going to play it. We've had a lot of fun so far and we've laughed a lot. We'd like to see the game improve. I'll edit my review as soon as you release a new update.

Честно так скажу, как русский(Возможно первый, кто пишет обзор) скажу так, игра может зайти не всем, но лично мне она понравилась, я скажу так, то что автор красавчик, видал я конечно много игр по типу закулисье, но этот случай - уникален. Автор - красава, кудос и респект ему за то, что взялся в руки и решил сделать такую уникальную игру, на самом деле, так как игра находится в раннем доступе, я бы на месте хмурых и тоскливых людей не стал бы гневить автора, за то что игра плохая, наоборот, автор красава. несмотря на мое ведро, в котором я играл в эту игру, все равно потянула(либо оптимизация качественная, либо, что то другое) очень надеюсь, что он будет продвигать игру, в плане моделей, уровней, биомов и прочего, надеюсь он найдет команду, в котором сможет улучшить свою игру в десятки раз, а может быть и в сотни, я очень надеюсь что разработчик будет продвигать игру, а с покупкой игры реально рад, не жалею, но будьте внимательны, игра еще в раннем доступе, так что не гневите автора, он старается и пытается, мне нравиться его проект, надеюсь он его не забросит. To be honest, as a Russian (perhaps the first one to write a review), I’d say this: the game might not appeal to everyone, but personally, I liked it. I’d say the author is awesome. Of course, I’ve seen a lot of games like “Behind the Scenes,” but this one is unique. The author is awesome, kudos to them for taking the initiative and deciding to create such a unique game. In fact, since the game is in early access, I wouldn’t blame the author for the game being bad — on the contrary, the author is awesome. Despite my old PC, which I used to play this game on, it still ran well (either because of the quality of the optimization or something else). I really hope he’ll keep developing the game — in terms of models, levels, biomes, and so on. I hope he’ll find a team that can improve the game dozens, or maybe even hundreds of times. I really hope the developer will keep promoting the game. I’m really glad I bought it — I don’t regret it. But be careful: the game is still in early access, so don’t upset the author.(created with interpreter)

this game sucks so bad looks like the devs did not chnage anything from the Demo, worst backrooms game and i played one that cots 2 bucks

Pretty Fun and Great. Few things I suggest. Batteries should die out slower or the blackout needs to be shorter and Maybe Hunger should last just a bit longer. For the Future I can't wait to see: -More Levels & Level Improvements maybe like water slides in some of the pool areas and etc. -More Monsters -Improved Monster AI (Ai goes thru walls sometimes like Smiley and sometimes have too much of a linear path.) Other than that Pretty good first impressions!

Поиграли с друзьями в этот "шедевр", и честно говоря, остался с легким послевкусием разочарования. Сама идея прикольная - процедурная генерация мира, и за которого каджое прохождения должно быть интересным и незапоминающимся. Но именно с генерацией и есть проблемы. Иногда тебе выпадает абсолютная пустая карта (без игровых предметов), где ты тупо бегаешь 20 минут, а в конце откисаешь от отсутствия рассудка и голода. А иногда все наоборот: сразу же у лифта находишь карту и запрыгиваешь обратно в лифт. Сама атмосфера и игровой процесс вообще не пугают, на руку только внезапность. Столкнулись с багом: по приезду на лифте к уровню все провалились и разбились об дно. Когда это произоршло мы уже собирались закончить с ней и вернуть деньги, но нашли в себе силы продолжить дальше. По прибытию на последний уровень "Exit" Мы блуждали минут 15 чисто по коридору по знакам Exit, но так и не нашли выход. Может мы глупые и не раскусили навигационные метки разработчика, а может разработчик забыл написать код для точки выхода. По итогу нас убил враждебный моб и мы закрыли игру. В целом что то в ней есть, но до полноценного хоррора игре, по моему мнению, не хватает пугающей атмосферы, стабильной генерации мира и исправление бага. Моя оценка 5\10.

This game needs some work. great concept but it shouldnt take me the entire time to find an elevator and have everyone in my party die before being able to get close to it.

Si vous avez de la chance en une heure le jeu est terminé, sinon trois siècles ne vont pas suffire.
