█ ROUTINE is a First Person Sci-Fi Horror title set on an abandoned lunar base designed around an 80s vision of the future.

Curious exploration turns into a need for survival when a lunar base goes completely quiet. Searching for answers puts you face to face with an enemy who is certain the main threat is you. Discoveries lead to deeper unknowns and the only way to go is forward. ▌

Note: ROUTINE offers no waypoint markers, finding your way is part of the experience. Slow down, observe your surroundings, explore carefully, and review data to uncover the path forward.

█ EXPLORE: Roam through contrasting sectors of the lunar base, from deteriorating living quarters and tram stations to an abandoned mall. ▌

█ OBSERVE: Investigate your surroundings and uncover crucial information to progress and piece together the events that unfolded before your arrival. ▌

█ IMMERSE: Full body awareness, diegetic audio, and minimal UI help create a gripping and atmospheric experience. ▌

█ OPERATE: Your Cosmonaut Assistance Tool (C.A.T.) is vital. Use it to access critical terminals, navigate the environment and identify clues. ▌

█ SURVIVE: Run, hide, or attempt to defend yourself against unknown threats using the C.A.T. as a last resort. ▌

I absolutely adore the retro-sci-fi aesthetic, and they captured it perfectly in tandem with the amazing audio design. I don't really know how long it's been since there's been a game that's really immersed me into its perspective. The diegetic UI, the movement, the environmental design, the design of various terminals, and the way you operate your CAT tool create the closest thing to the player character being an extension of my own self.\n\nThat being said, the reason for the negative rating is mostly due to the running time of this game. The game took around 4 hours to beat, and I don't feel as though that does the premise or mechanics justice enough. There's just simply a whole lot more that could've been done with what is here, and the ending just leaves me wanting. I am aware that this game has a small development team of three people and experienced development hell for a decade(?), but the final product feels like only a quarter of a fully-fledged game. From the third chapter onwards, it definitely felt rushed.\n\nI didn't find the \"horror\" gameplay itself to be too engaging. The visual and audio design of the threats (of which there are, unfortunately, only two) are truly stellar, but they lose their shock factor when you realize they're basically a non-issue given how easy it is to counter, outrun, or hide from them. The game also has a tendency to give you [i]wayyy[/i] too many batteries for your CAT tool, which is used for various functions of your CAT tool, including immobilizing these threats for a short time. Given this game's lack of on-screen objective indicators, I think the developers overdesigned their environments. Any exploration into any dark rooms quickly lead into a dead ends with no rewards, and the tasks you have to complete are sign posted [b]everywhere[/b] on signs, notes, and terminals. I just didn't feel compelled to explore these really nice environments. The puzzles themselves are presented nicely though, even if they're a little too easy.\n\nI really do still think this game is worth experiencing, but I wouldn't ever recommend it at full price because of how unfortunately short it is with not a whole lot of replay value.","votes_up","recommendationid","212579833","timestamp_created","2025-12-04T23:38:35.000Z",{"_823":831,"_825":111,"_826":742,"_828":832},"Наконец приступив к данной игре, растекся по стулу от ее атмосфере и вовлеченности игрока в мир.

There's some good scares in here that are really helped by just how good a job this tiny development team did in those two aspects, and I can't really say anything bad about it, it also helps it ran great on my mid-ranged machine, which while not surprising considering the game takes place in almost exclusively in cramped corridors, Unreal Engine 5 is infamous for performance issues even on rigs that cost thousands of dollars.\r\n\r\nMechanically is another story and where the positives become harder to find, you have only one item throughout the entire game, the C.A.T., which serves as both a way to solve puzzles and also stuns enemies for a significant period of time, and while you would think ammo for would be a precious commodity, with each battery giving you 3 shots, in reality they are absolutely everywhere (probably because it's also needed to progress puzzles), imagine if in Alien Isolation just about every single room gave you a full tank of fuel for your flamethrower, that's about how often ROUTINE throws batteries at you, the only limiting factor is that you can't pick up batteries to use later and instead must replace your current one, but considering they are absolutely everywhere that's not really something you really feel most the time, and once you realize this it unfortunately kills a lot of the tension.\r\n\r\nSo maybe ROUTINE's story helps elevate it? Well the most I can say is that it's there, and it does have some things that are interesting, but it's good concepts and bad execution, since it never really explores them in the first place, the story is told almost exclusively through logs, emails, and the environment, and they do have interesting groundwork, but then the game ends, in a pretty haphazard, confusing, and pretty unsatisfying way that makes you wonder what the hell just happened and not in a good way.\r\n\r\nOverall despite loving the art style and having a lot of good horror baseline elements, the extremely shallow mechanical depth combined with a lackluster at best story makes this difficult to recommend, and when you also consider it also being a very short game without really anything in the way of replay value, it becomes even more difficult. \r\n\r\nTo conclude things it's honestly a shock this came out at all with it having been revealed in the ancient year of 2012, and many games that languish in development for even close to that long are almost always utter disasters if they finally release, so maybe it being a game I could recommend on a sale is an accomplishment in itself.","212585505","2025-12-05T01:45:48.000Z",{"_823":842,"_825":402,"_826":733,"_828":843},"I requested a refund, and the reason is very simple: the graphics don't match the gameplay trailers from 12 and 3 years ago.

And I will continue to assume the game as it currently is.\r\nAnd the game as it is, is a beautiful but lost potential of a game.\r\n\r\nImmaculate graphics and sound design, giving great immersion. Like, insanely good aesthetics.\r\nAnd the horror was really good... except for one or two moments. But, the ideas of their horror was oh so good. Im not gonna spoil them, but it is one of the more terrifying singleplayer experiences ive had in a game.\r\n\r\nBuy this correctly priced game for a good horror experience.\r\nBut I also wanted a good and interesting game...\r\n\r\nThe potential of the game was left out. So many of the mechanics of the game, with the CAT and all, go unused. Diognosing it via a terminal, using the shot or ultraviolet modes actually become forgotten. There is no clever combination of these.\r\n\r\nAnd the story and the way you progress is fairly bad. Visual story-telling was great, but from what I gathered of the story, it is too vague about its symbols, but also very blunt. There is a dumb nonsensical spatial jump between chapter 3 and 4 where the space you are in and the way you got there does not add up. I know why we dont get to see it, and I can figure out somewhat what happened, but it was jarring to go from something 80-90s to 70s.\r\n\r\nAnd the ending, and my experience. I suppose I need to think about it more, but the entire game reminded me of another similar game with a similar background and missing features.\r\n\r\nSCORN.\r\nScorn is a game that was in development hell much like Routine, and it also changed when it came out. Also an aesthetically pleasing game with horror (although different horror). Turning into a more Linear experience.\r\n\r\nThe reason why im mentioning Scorn is because of its similarities to Routine, but also where Scorn as a similar game turned out to be more satisfying than Routine. The symbolics and 'story' of Scorn was a lot more understandable and emotionally visceral (without any use of dialogue). Routine wants to be symbolic and tell a story even with unreliable perspective. But it fails, for me at least.\r\n\r\nRoutines best elements really is the Aesthetics and immersion.\r\nEverything else is Good, Ok or just a big great sense of \"lost potential\".\r\n\r\nAnd thats Routine for me. A good looking game with lost potential.\r\nI had a good time playing it for its horror. But I really did leave unsatisfied elsewhere.","212585203","2025-12-05T01:38:57.000Z",{"_823":858,"_825":360,"_826":738,"_828":859},"在一年前被你们的宣传视频吸引看着画质很高题材也还可以\n但是游戏游玩体验不是很好指引做的很差\n 基本就是一直不断去看邮件去找东西找密码\n如果是喜欢恐怖游戏注重恐怖的就很很不建议去玩这个 \n这个完全是步行模拟器个人感觉报玩\n手感很奇怪节奏很慢需要慢慢去探索 \n玩到后面就有点麻木疲劳感很重因为没有什么内容给玩家呈现了\n对新手玩家来说很需要耐心对我们这种不想动脑的玩家来说简直是一种煎熬找前找后真的是烦了","2025-12-04T16:46:39.000Z","refundVolumeEstimate",{"_862":863,"_864":865},"estimatedCopiesLost",1649,"estimatedRevenueLost",41208.51,"refundRiskReviews",[868,891,901,910,918,928,936,945,954,961,970,978,986,994,1001,1011,1019,1028,1039,1047,1056,1064,1071,1079],{"_869":870,"_823":831,"_703":704,"_880":70,"_825":111,"_881":150,"_882":154,"_883":47,"_826":742,"_884":70,"_828":885,"_886":885,"_887":888,"_889":70,"_890":70},"author",{"_871":872,"_873":874,"_632":508,"_875":137,"_876":877,"_878":877,"_879":877},"steamid","76561198001327702","last_played",1764868327,"num_games_owned","playtime_forever",74,"playtime_at_review","playtime_last_two_weeks","voted_up","votes_funny","comment_count","steam_purchase","received_for_free",1764869317,"timestamp_updated","weighted_vote_score","0.572267591953277588","primarily_steam_deck","written_during_early_access",{"_869":892,"_823":858,"_703":737,"_880":70,"_825":360,"_881":143,"_882":137,"_883":47,"_826":738,"_884":70,"_828":898,"_886":899,"_887":900,"_889":70,"_890":70},{"_871":893,"_873":894,"_632":895,"_875":896,"_876":897,"_878":897,"_879":897},"76561199101609628",1764866415,215,328,96,1764866799,1764875761,"0.536902487277984619",{"_869":902,"_823":906,"_703":720,"_880":70,"_825":360,"_881":137,"_882":137,"_883":47,"_826":813,"_884":70,"_828":907,"_886":908,"_887":909,"_889":70,"_890":70},{"_871":903,"_873":904,"_632":342,"_875":137,"_876":905,"_878":905,"_879":905},"76561198118032788",1764878504,51,"After twelve years of waiting for this elusive, almost mythical “vaporware” title to finally materialize, did it live up to the enormous hype?\nUnfortunately… no. What we got feels like Scorn all over again.\n\nJust like Scorn, this game hooked people with vague, moody teaser trailers that were heavy on atmosphere and art direction, light on anything resembling gameplay. And once you actually sit down with the finished product, the illusion cracks fast. Beneath the gorgeous presentation is little more than a self-important, artsy walking sim with almost no real substance.\n\nThose intriguing robots shown in the trailers? Pure bait. You deal with them early on, disable them entirely, and the story never meaningfully explores that thread. In the second half, the tension evaporates. Threats? Practically nonexistent. The “alien” that’s introduced as the new danger never interacts with you in a meaningful way. You’re left solving basic puzzles, reading scattered documents, and trudging forward until the game abruptly calls it quits.\n\nEven if this were priced at $20, I’d still suggest waiting for a deep sale or better yet, just watch a playthrough. If you have Game Pass, you can just play through it once for the experience and never touch it again.\n\nFor a project that stayed in development hell for twelve long years, it’s astonishing how many other horror titles have blown past it in execution and ambition. Alien Isolation, Amnesia: The Bunker, Still Wakes the Deep, Soma just all far stronger experiences worth your time.\n\nAlso I should say the only thing I did like was that IC robot, too adorable :D\n\nFinal Verdict: 4/10",1764895375,1764895650,"0.486302495002746582",{"_869":911,"_823":915,"_703":704,"_880":70,"_825":154,"_881":108,"_882":137,"_883":47,"_826":754,"_884":70,"_828":916,"_886":916,"_887":917,"_889":70,"_890":70},{"_871":912,"_873":913,"_632":143,"_875":154,"_876":914,"_878":914,"_879":914},"76561199055619873",1764873439,94,"Issued a refund.

The Last Case of John Morley thrusts players into the shoes of detective John Morley in the gritty, noir atmosphere of the 1940s. After spending several months recovering in the hospital from injuries sustained during his last case, Morley returns to his office, only to be visited by the enigmatic Lady Margaret Fordside, an English countess haunted by a tragic past.

Lady Fordside engages Morley to investigate the unsolved murder of her daughter, which occurred on a fateful night 20 years ago. The police had closed the case by arresting scapegoats, but the countess is convinced that the real killer remains at large.

What begins as a quiet look into an old case becomes a haunting investigation into forgotten places and long-hidden truths that refuse to stay buried.

Two positive reviews, no obvious red flags, a trailer that looked competent enough, and a $30 price tag. I went in blind on purpose, no deep dives, solely intrigue and a desire to see what it actually is. After about an hour, I feel weirdly torn, but mostly frustrated.\n\nThe good: some of the best environment/set design I’ve seen in a while\n\nOnce the game pulls you out of the opening VR sequence and into the main character’s apartment, A.I.L.A suddenly looks fantastic.\n\nThe apartment is dense with detail- cables strewn about naturally under desks, power strips, scattered PC parts, a fuse box, dishes in the sink, toast left in the toaster, overdue bills stuck to the fridge. It feels like a real person lives here, not like a prefab Unreal marketplace showroom. Repetition is handled cleverly, the props repeat, but cleverly across seperate spaces, not lazily spammed in one room, this is expert level set design.\n\nThe overall vibe is nostalgic and lived-in rather than sterile.\n\nThrough this environment alone, you learn things about the character, tech-obsessed, probably neglecting other parts of life, behind on payments- maybe isolated. Little touches like the TV playing news about a killer, or bills on the fridge, are good environmental storytelling. You’re already performing tasks around the house while the world quietly fills itself in around you. Honestly, if I’m praising anything about A.I.L.A so far, it’s this: the set design and worldbuilding through space are clearly hand-crafted and genuinely strong. Better than a lot of bigger-budget titles that feel like IKEA showrooms.\n\nThe bad: QTEs, cutscene funnels, semi-vague objectives\n\nUnfortunately, almost everything wrapped around that environment feels clunky, shallow, or just not very well thought out.\n\n1. QTEs legitimately everywhere, doing nothing interesting\n\nWithin the first 30 second of then game, the Quick Time Events fire off. They hit again and again until you begin to wonder why the developers even bothered pretending like you had agency in the first place. These are so constant that the opening hour feels like being chauffeured in a cutscene limousine. These QTEs absolutely mar the opening to the point of . I kept feeling like the game was terrified of letting me actually play.\n\nWhere a game like Half-Life: Alyx turns a moment — say, getting the shotgun — into a genuinely tense, tactile sequence where you solve the problem and feel the pressure, A.I.L.A's introduction to getting a weapon substitutes in a pre-rendered cutscene with QTEs stapled on. The game essentially routes around the player’s agency, denying you the chance to actually experience the tension it’s trying to create.\n\nIt’s not engaging. It actively makes the game worse, and it is unfortunately the bedrock of its design.\n\n2. It plays like a collection of motifs, not a coherent design\n\nThe overall feeling reminds me a bit of that mid-tier space of games like Atomic Heart or Trepang (not in genre, but in vibe): a lot of style, a lot of visual flair, but the actual thought behind moment-to-moment design feels incomplete. I won't go into great detail here because YMMV. Just a thought.\n\nThe premise: promising on paper, not sold in practice (yet)\n\nThe underlying story setup is actually interesting:\nYou’re effectively a playtester for an experimental VR device.\nAn AI tailors experiences to your personality, history, and behavior.\nThere’s a clear meta angle about immersion, personalization, and how intensely a machine can learn you.\nThe AI explains its design philosophy: the more personal, the more intense and immersive the experience. That’s a cool idea.\n\nBut these ideas are gimped due to their delivery through cutscenes+QTE. I don’t yet feel like I’m part of an adaptive system. I feel like I’m being dragged through scripted beats with trendy visual filters.\n\nAESTHETIC FATIGUE. One last thing: the whole CRT / screen-distortion thing feels tired here. The game starts with a heavy CRT / VHS / distortion intro that leans hard into trendy “analog horror” aesthetics. I personally find that style overplayed at this point, and here it’s not doing anything clever with it, (the developers even lampshade in-game afterward and seemingly acknowledge this retro trend getting out of hand in media)\n\nVERDICT (First hour only)\nRight now, based purely on the first hour:\n\nHuge W for set design, environmental detail, and the way the apartment tells a story about the main character.\nHuge L for QTE-heavy, cutscene-driven “gameplay” that rarely lets me do anything interesting.\n\nThe core premise (AI-crafted VR horror/experience) is potentially cool, but the execution hasn’t convinced me yet.\n\nIf this is a “game has one hour to impress me” situation, A.I.L.A hasn’t really done it so far, except in its environments, which are genuinely excellent. If the rest of the game leans into that strength and dials back the cutscene/QTE training wheels, there might be something special here. But as of now, my experience is:\n\nBeautifully built world, mediocre to actively annoying game design wrapped around it.","2025-11-25T19:22:07.000Z",{"_823":2573,"_825":1300,"_826":2574,"_828":2575},"Starts off very interesting and has some very good ideas but unfortunately it just devolves into clunky boring action gameplay.

A TIMELESS CLASSIC RETURNS

R-Type Delta is one of the finest shoot ‘em ups ever and took the gaming world by storm upon its release in 1998. Now, 27 years later, history repeats itself with R-Type Delta HD Boosted. With its tight level design, three selectable ships, powerful Delta Attacks, and the brilliant Force mechanic, this new edition proves that gaming classics of this caliber are truly timeless. If you played R-Type Delta back in the day, this is the perfect opportunity to return to its dark science fiction action. If you've never experienced this essential piece of gaming history before, now is the time.

SHARPER THAN EVER

R-Type Delta HD Boosted features high-resolution graphics that hone the polygonal edges of this PlayStation masterpiece until they’re sharp enough to cut glass. You simply haven’t experienced R-Type Delta until you've played it in high definition! Of course, the game also comes equipped with modern quality-of-life improvements.

ENVIRONMENTAL STORYTELLING

What has always made R-Type Delta so fantastic is its dark, eerie atmosphere. Shoot-'em-ups are not typically known for storytelling, but R-Type Delta HD Boosted excels with its simple, minimalist environmental storytelling, characteristic of the late ’90s. It’s a narrative that is as fascinating as it is unsettling, as adrenaline-pumping as it is deeply disturbing. And all this without a single word being spoken.

THE MEANING OF DELTA

The name “Delta” carries several meanings. Firstly, the Greek letter delta resembles a triangle, which coincidentally has as many sides as there are playable ships in the game. It is also the fourth letter of the Greek alphabet, and R-Type Delta is the fourth game in the R-Type series. Additionally, the delta triangle is the simplest type of polygon, which is fitting since R-Type Delta was the first game in the series to use three-dimensional polygon graphics instead of two-dimensional sprites.

STORY

The year is 2163, and the badly damaged R9 Arrowhead fighter has just returned to Earth after its mission to destroy the Bydo Empire. The vessel is rescued by the battle-cruiser Croque-Monsieur and transported to an orbital space station. One year later, astronomers in Central Asia observe mysterious objects falling from the sky, and moments later, control is lost over the orbiting annihilation platform Moritz-G. This high-tech machine, capable of destroying the entire planet, descends over a city and levels it to the ground.

Descend into Total Chaos, a gripping survival horror experience that darkens the fragile space between truth and madness.

Setting: The once thriving Fort Oasis feels like a long ago memory; deserted, decayed and too dark for comfort. You’ve wrecked upon its island shore by a sudden storm–its distant past still seems eerily present, but venture inward you must, compelled by cryptic radio transmissions from someone who seems like a friend.

But as you delve deeper into Fort Oasis reality itself becomes twisted and uncertain as you realize your very existence is at stake.

Gameplay: Scavenge for scraps and craft makeshift weapons to defend yourself against the many horrors. Unearth fragments of forgotten lives scattered across the island and piece together the chilling mystery of Fort Oasis’s fate. Each discovery brings you closer to a truth that threatens to shatter your sanity.

Key Features:

Immersive Atmosphere: Explore the nightmarish ruins of Fort Oasis across nine harrowing chapters that plunge you deeper into its oppressive, decaying world.
Environmental Storytelling: Uncover the island’s darkest secrets and confront your own fractured past through cryptic notes, haunting visuals and unsettling encounters.
Crafting for Survival: Build and upgrade weapons using scavenged materials to stand a chance against the relentless terrors stalking you.
Face Nightmarish Foes: Engage in desperate battles against horrific creatures, each with their own deadly behaviors and strategies.
Resource Management: Navigate a deep inventory system where every item matters. Your survival hinges on careful choices and quick thinking.

Originally conceived as an award-winning total conversion mod, Total Chaos has been fully reimagined into a standalone nightmare using a modern engine, amplifying its chilling atmosphere and relentless tension for a new generation of players.

‎The August Before is a meditative narrative 3D puzzle about cleaning up, sorting out and packing up your life
before moving on.
Teenage love, first losses, and notes from friends are scattered in the corners: explore the details of the heroine's
life, pack up the life you will take with you, and say goodbye - if you can.

And remember - you can't take the past with you.

Pack your life

Clean up the room before leaving, find the necessary items, and pack them in a suitcase.
Keep track of the diary, change the music, arrange the objects, and try to remember
not to disturb the dark corners of the room.

Brush the dust off your past

Sort through the items and appreciate the resulting order and the details of the story that unfolds in the process.
Explore the chaos and enjoy your freedom to drag, erase, disassemble, break, and fix things
in the highly interactive space.

say POOLS is like an art gallery where you look around and listen to the sounds. There are very few things to solve, practically a few mazes. Sometimes the game can challenge your navigation skills. But mostly you're just... there.

Note: There are no monsters chasing you or jumping suddenly towards you, but the game can feel oppressive. POOLS plays on fears of getting lost, the dark, and tight spaces.

The game has no user-interface and no dialogue. No background music. Instead, the game uses sounds to make you feel like you're really there. The sounds and echo change depending on the room you're in. Walking in water is slower. All of these things makes the game feel more real and creates a tense atmosphere.

There's no typical story, no characters to meet, and you won't find any notes in game. But as you explore and advance further, you start to notice that the game's world changes around you. Rooms look and feel different. Each chapter has something unique. Constantly you're exploring new places, each with its own kind of mystery.

POOLS has six unique chapters, each taking 10 to 30 minutes to play.

POOLS is inspired by a internet phenomenons "Liminal spaces", "Found footage" and "Backrooms" - specifically "Backrooms Pools" or "Poolrooms".

One of the original artists behind the Poolrooms concept is Jared Pike.

Other inspirations include:

Matt Studios: Poolrooms videos from 2022

GAMEPLAY FEATURES

COHESIVE "LIVED-IN" WORLD
Scorn takes place in an open-ended world with different interconnected regions. Each region is a maze-like structure with various rooms and paths to discover. All the storytelling happens in-game, with no cut-scenes to distract you from the grisly reality of the living, breathing world you’re in. But keep your eyes open - the game won’t show you any sympathy if you miss something important on your uneasy travels.

FULL BODY AWARENESS
Players will experience better immersion being aware of the character’s body and movement. Interaction with the world is realistic - objects are picked up with your hands (instead of just floating in midair), machines and instruments are operated by grabbing the controls, etc.

DEVIL'S ROCK
An island off the coast of Louisiana
1933

“Ever since I heard of the treasure inside Bellemore Manor I've been obsessed by it. People said the house was still haunted by the ghosts of the wedding that disappeared there decades ago, but if the ghosts knew where the treasure was hidden, I just had to ask them.

But there's more to the treasure than I could have ever expected, and now I've awakened a household of spirits who don't mind that they're dead, and an evil phantom determined to find the treasure before I do.

Fixing the situation won't just mean getting to the treasure first, but also figuring out what happened on the island all those years ago. But I have a feeling that in order to do that, I'll have to die too.”

What if you lost all your memories? An emotional family drama seen through the eyes of a woman with Alzheimer's disease. As Annie’s life slowly unravels, uncover memories of her deceased brother as her past bleeds into the present.

STORY

Inspired by personal stories. You play as Annie, an elderly woman whose memory is starting to betray her. Annie and her children cope with reversed caretaking roles as she moves from her long-time home. While her children clash over how to care for her, old memories of Annie’s long-dead brother start to emerge.

As Long As You're Here is a subtle reflection of what life with dementia might look like, and a story about complex sibling relationships.

SHORT & PERSONAL

As Long As You're Here is a short and personal experience made with care by a small team of developers.

The aim is to create a mature and nuanced experience that shows the difficult repercussions of losing not only your memory, but also your agency and sense of time and place.

What disappears when we forget?

... and what resurfaces?

FEATURES

Short & Subtle: A short and subtle experience designed to be enjoyed in one sitting.
Personal: Inspired by real stories and includes real-life photos of the developers' own family members - some of whom suffered from Alzheimer's disease.

Story Rich: Explore Annie's life through dialogue, mementos, and letters from the past. Meet family members and unpack the tensions and dynamics between them.
Subversive Vignettes: The player's own memory comes into play. As the world around Annie shifts and changes, players share in her failing faculties.
Immersive Audio & Original Music

Explore the seemingly infinite expanse of eerily familiar levels in backrooms based on the popular creepypasta lore. Each level features different ways to escape with dangers along the way.

Realistic graphics, minimal user interfaces, and dreary ambience combine for an atmospheric horror experience that's terrified millions of players on Steam.

Explore the backrooms with a team of up to 4 players. Good luck: teammates may no-clip into other areas of the map and every member of your team must reach the exit alive to escape. No wanderer left behind.

Traverse 30+ unique levels based on backrooms lore. Don't wander far from your team, as you can easily get lost in the confusing expanse of the backrooms.

Check every corner for the many hostile entities lurking inside the backrooms. Each has their own mechanics. Learn quickly if you want to survive the horror.

Communicate with your teammates with proximity voice chat. Entities can also hear you, so stay quiet whenever you're near danger.
