The Classrooms

The Classrooms is a procedural found-footage survival horror game set in a seemingly infinite maze of halls and classrooms. In 1996, Robert Chen brings his VHS camcorder into a newly condemned local public school to investigate the disappearances of several students, including his younger sister. After entering, he becomes lost; you explore the school and uncover the contents of the tape he left behind.

A changing maze

The world is different every time you play, with billions of possible layouts and procedural elements. The school contains anomalies ranging from harmless oddities to malicious entities, so each playthrough produces its own found footage.

Entities and survival

The entities range from harmless to extremely dangerous. Investigating their properties is important for survival, and each has its own mechanics that distinguish it from the others.

Tools and sound

You find and use items, codex entries, keys and equipment, though the items available to you may differ from those available to another player. Proximity voice connects sounds from your input device to the game world: loud noise can reveal your location to certain entities, while your voice may also be useful.
