Best Backrooms game that I've found so far. Surprising amount of effort put in for what is otherwise a pretty memey concept for a game. The levels get a bit too difficult after the halfway point imo, but the variety in levels, enemies and puzzles is good. Seems like there hasn't been an update since late last year so I don't know if they're working on this still but I hope it gets improved upon. VR has a lot of bugs and needs work.

So dear people, If you really want half a heart attack then this game is for you, grab your friends (or alone) and explore the backrooms for beauties like: -Stick figure man -Smiley Face -The Asian dog -The Bifi mascot -A naked Ronald McDonald -The contents of an Ottoman goulash canister -And there are more to come... Kind regards: The 4 friends who swallowed 8 million antidepressants

Incredibly fun. The puzzles are challenging and require good team work, the monsters are creative and terrifying, my neighbours aren't the biggest fan - but at least my mic cuts out when I get too loud lol
