This is one of the very, very few Backrooms games that are most likely worth your time. Unlike most games in the Backrooms category, this one doesn't have any monsters in the traditional sense. There are no chase scenes, there aren't items or health meters, and there is basically no way to die from your own mistakes. The lack of those features, surprisingly, are what make this game so incredibly scary. The Complex: Expedition is a master of suspense and tension. You spend most of your gameplay from a hyperrealistic camcorder perspective, walking in completely deserted, photorealistic corridors with no sound but your character's breath, footsteps, and occasional dialogue during scenes. What this game really shines with is making you feel like you are somewhere you aren't supposed to be. Items have no purpose and look out of place, walls and passages exist without consideration for human habitation, and strange occurrences happen without warning that won't hurt you, but will make you reconsider if maybe those people saying that the game has no enemies in it was a lie. Trust me, if you are expecting a boring experience, you are sorely mistaken. If anything, you should reconsider whether you can hold your nerve long enough to finish the game. The only criticisms I have with this game is the lack of actual story, minor unintended glitches like the running sound effects playing when they shouldn't be if run is spammed too much, and the overuse of darkness to create suspense. This game does perfectly what it sets out to do, be a Kane Pixels inspired liminal space that puts cinematic atmosphere and tension over clippability, jumpscares, and typical gameplay mechanics. 100% worth the price.

The most boring game I have ever played. Literally nothing scary happens
It was extremely good looking, but that was it. I don't recall any threats or puzzles the whole game. Just walking. It's impressive how it was pretty much exactly 2 hours of walking.
So after watching the Backrooms movie it made me interested in learning more about the backrooms, plus made me excited to play some of the games too. For people who enjoyed the movie or Kane Parsons YouTube series this game feels heavily inspired by those works and I think you'll enjoy it. The game follows some Async workers (might not actually be called that in the game) who are exploring new areas of the backrooms and eventually the player gets lost and clips lower into the backrooms. The game is entirely just walking but the environment is always odd and eerie making the player want to see more or go further into this liminal space. The pacing of the game is good in my opinion, it dosen't hold your hand and tell you where to go but the game does not leave you stuck wondering for an hour figuring out where to go. You'll get the feeling of being unsure where you are going but you can sort of quickly find something interesting to look at or explore, which may include entire rooms, small things that have clipped into the backrooms and more. The layout of level zero also makes it a little easy to navigate where you could most likely find your way around based on if one path leads you to a bigger room and another continues with similar halls. The game dose not have levels but you will come across the poolrooms and other things/rooms that feel like they came from the Kane Pixels web series. If you are unsure if you'll like this one there is a shorter game that has the same feel as this one called " The Complex: Found Footage" which is $4.99 and is made by the same developer. I completed this game (Expedition) in around 3 hours and unlocked two of the achievements and spent another hour getting the last one ( 3 achievements in total). " Imagine describing a dog to someone who's never seen one before and then asking them to draw it. They might get some things right, you know, but there is no way they would get everything right, you know? The devil is in the details" - Clark
Un juego bastante interesante en cuanto lore refiere, con una atmósfera impecable y con unos gráficos muy buenos. Sin embargo, la duración deja mucho que desear, ya que al ser un juego cuya dificultad se basa únicamente en no atascarse demasiado explorando, debido a que no existen entidades (lo cual lo hace un juego diferente a cualquier otro de backrooms), podrias pasar la experiencia en menos de una hora. Por ello recomiendo, si vas a comprarlo, hacerlo cuando se encuentre en oferta, ya que el precio me parece un poco elevado para la duración de gameplay que nos ofrece.
Game looks and feels amazing but suffers from random crashes, i lost all the progress i made and now contemplating returning the game. SMH

The Best Backrooms Singleplayer. Since Backrooms movie from Kane Parsons released in threaters across all america territory. I had this feeling to being part of the move somehow. I search d several backrooms games on steam, stumble this particular well done either graphics, suspense the expedition is no going that well cuz an external phenomeon drag you out bunch of liminal spaces without any human interaction or communication.
Ah sweet, man-made horrors beyond my comprehension. It took me just under 2 hours to get the first ending and I literally don't wanna play it anymore, it's great, but extremely unsettling and anxiety inducing. The visuals are maybe some of the most realistic I've ever seen in a video game, the atmosphere and sound design are also out of this world. Phenomenal game, never wanna touch it again I'm good.
