MOUSE and WASD for playing.
The Backrooms traps you in a seemingly endless maze of monotonous yellow walls and buzzing fluorescent lights. The place feels off—like a forgotten office building left to decay, with that strange damp carpet smell clinging to every corner. There’s no clear direction, no helpful signs, just hallway after hallway, each one leading to what feels like nowhere. Something about it all makes your skin crawl, and you can’t shake the eerie feeling that you’re being watched.
Every step you take deeper into The Backrooms feels more unsettling. The layout doesn’t make sense, like the walls are shifting when you’re not looking. Some rooms are uncomfortably quiet, while others echo faint, indistinct sounds—was that a voice? Or just the hum of the lights playing tricks on you? You don’t know what’s real, but you’re sure of one thing: you’re not alone in here.
Survival means staying sharp. There might be clues hidden in the chaos—an odd mark on the wall, a misplaced object, or even an opening that looks slightly different from the rest. But time isn’t your friend here. The deeper you wander, the weirder everything becomes. Shadows seem to move on their own, and distant footsteps echo behind you when you swear no one else is there. The environment plays with your mind, and the longer you stay, the harder it becomes to trust your instincts.
In The Backrooms, escape is the ultimate goal, but it’s easier said than done. Each decision could lead you closer to freedom or trap you even further. Keep moving, stay alert, and don’t let the silence consume you. Whatever you do, don’t stop to question the flickering movements in the corner of your eye. You don’t want to find out what’s making them.
