Backrooms

Backrooms is a survival-horror game set in the Backrooms, a shifting maze of endless halls, decaying rooms and dark corridors. You explore with only your bodycam and your wits, searching for a way out while creatures lurk nearby.

Survive and explore

Batteries, food and sanity are finite, so you must manage your resources as you make your way through the maze. Its walls move and rooms disappear, while sounds can signal the arrival of an entity. The levels are procedurally generated, so no two runs are the same.

Solve and adapt

You solve puzzles to open new areas, gather mysterious artifacts and craft tools to fend off danger or reveal hidden pathways. Cryptic recordings, notes and environmental storytelling help you unravel the Backrooms’ mystery. Relentless, procedurally driven foes require you to adapt your strategy.

Progression

You earn experience by solving puzzles, avoiding enemies and surviving. Spend XP to unlock upgrades, tools and abilities, and create tools and upgrade equipment to last longer and explore deeper. Your choices have consequences: you can risk pursuing a clue to the exit or focus on surviving longer.
