Shifting To The Backrooms is a single-player horror and drama game about Will, a 15-year-old dealing with family turmoil involving his father, mother, sister and his mother’s new friend. He discovers “shifting,” a way to enter dreamlike liminal worlds and escape his grim reality, but the dreams become a nightmare he cannot wake from. You guide Will through them as he tries to return to wakefulness and uncover ways to alter reality and secrets that could change his family’s fate.

Dreams and liminal spaces

The story explores shifting, astral projection, transcendental travel, the possibility of influencing reality through dreams, and the fear of becoming trapped in an astral plane, dream or alternate reality. It also examines the thin line between sleep and reality. The Backrooms are the setting for Will’s personal journey, with more than 15 liminal spaces ranging from comfortable to eerie, including abstract levels and non-Euclidean spaces.

Explore and solve puzzles

You explore the spaces, solve complex and abstract puzzles, collect notes and learn different shifting methods. To find a way out, you must avoid or hide from entity monsters. The game focuses on its single-player story campaign, with characters and a plot about shifting and parallel universes.
