Overall, it offers a solid, enjoyable experience with room for more variety and refinement.
“A very good backrooms game with a nice selection of levels and entities. The crafting mechanic adds a level of semi-uniqueness, and the cool gimmicky game mode (the metro) prevents the gameplay from getting old even after long play.”
“The evidence collection mechanic adds depth beyond just 'survive and escape,' giving runs a real sense of purpose through researching entities.”
“+ The trading, item, and crafting systems are simple but effective, adding a lot to the gameplay.”
“Boring repetitive gameplay with every level just feeling like a maze that's far too large.”
“Incredibly annoying AI with the dogs; sometimes the intended flashlight mechanic just doesn't stun, even for a second.”
“The level layouts become confusing, particularly in the maze-like third map, where my friends and I spent over an hour just trying to locate each other and understand the gameplay mechanics.”
