The Backrooms Reviews

Glitchiest game ever. Crashes constantly.

love playing the game although the heavy breathing needs to be cut back a bit

i dont know if its a bug or not but when you press Ctrl-O you can fly and do almost what you want to do and you cant get out of it you have to press windows on your keybord and press X in the top right corner anyways i like the game and the idea behind it and i would love to see how the game will get better and all that

Played the game yesterday through all that was available with my kids, then played it again today after an update to record for my youtube channel. I am a huge fan of the changes and look forward to seeing what comes in the future. Graphics are pretty good, sounds are good, voice acting was good, overall feeling of creepy backrooms was good. Main thing I would say is the monsters felt a little easy to avoid at the moment, but could probably have that fixed with a few tweaks to their placement or the placement of objectives. At the moment it is a short game, I finished in under 45 minutes, but I look forward to seeing what is done with it in the future and what might be added. I can confirm the game is not a dead game, it literally got a big update between yesterday and today. Was it worth 10 bucks at this point, hard to say, though the game quality overall was good so I am inclined to say yes and definately if you catch it on sale. Looking forward to what the developer does in the future with this because there were hints at a good bit more coming.

-This game does not have a save feature, so every try must be from the beginning to the end, what makes it repetitive. -It does not have a multiplayer option, what is good for this game genre, but you can't share the experience with friends. -The hostile creatures do not seem to pose a real threat to the player and after you understand what are you running from, it becomes boring. -The constant breath sound is more irritating than something to reduce the player situational awareness. -Creature sounds coming from the walls, what does not make sense and it seems to come from the next and/or previous areas, above or under the position of the player. -There are almost no division from the actual level to the next or the previous, what is a problem for loading/unloading resources, like textures, and can cause bad performance (and emanates sounds from other adjacent "maps"). -The movement of the head is delayed, what is not interesting too. This game is not fun. It is stressing and it is not because of its terror background, but because of the amount of bad game mechanics.
