Game description:
Do you know that feeling when you don't understand what's going on, but you clearly have to do something about it? That's the prevalent motif of The Backrooms. Here you will have to make your way through a totally strange yet so familiar world that doesn't seem to contain any obvious dangers yet you can't get rid of the impression that there is something wrong here. During your trip, you'll have to solve different puzzles without any clue of how they should be solved and do other bewildering things. So, let's begin!The Backrooms looks like a maze of random rooms, halls and corridors. Lamps illuminate the rooms, the warm light of which reflects yellow walls and absorbs brown carpets. As such, there is no backstory, just random “lucky ones” fall into the walls, ending up in this oppressive labyrinth. The purpose of the room that got here is simple: find a way out and keep your sanity. However, not everyone succeeds.
Running along randomly generated corridors is diluted with the mechanics of interacting with a few objects, seasoned with good sound and visual effects. Periodically, the lights go out and a black silhouette (or hallucination) appears, which can cause the camera to fall, fall into the floor and... This will end your run. Some players compete to see who can last the longest in the atmosphere of yellow madness. The record was only 8 hours, which is really scary. After all, about 40 minutes in such an environment is enough for the throat, and two times during this time you will have time to die for no reason and on the third - by chance to find a way out.
From the very first minutes, the feeling of total confusion won't leave you. Most of the time, you'll have to act randomly hoping that it will lead you to success. Since the game doesn't tell or hint you what to do, and you're the only one to make any decisions, you'll have to rake your brains a good deal. The fact that some objects can't be used in places where you found them and have to be brought to other rooms where you can interact with them makes it even more complicated. You'll need both logic and ingenuity, and also sheer luck.
Overall, The Backrooms is surely an intriguing and exciting game that will bring in something new into your gaming routine. Try it online right now and see how long it will take you to find your way home from this nightmarish conglomeration of rooms, halls and other creepy premises!
