Tbh this game is a lot of fun and for 10 dollars you get a lot of content in this game like tons of careers to choose from tons of weapons and items you can find around the map and levels to discover and most of the time its on sale for 5 dollars now its not the best looking game and its a little buggy but if you get past that its like those fun little indie games you use to play when you were younger on xbox 360. miss those days

Sept. 2024

actually a fun game i ran it with 2 others and we found weapons on the 2nd level after that shooting or ending anything that moved was really fun but the only issue i had was when getting really geared up it feels like the only real challenge is the hunger system we only went down -20ish levels though could get better going further

Honestly? This is a comfort game for me to relax with. The addition of explore mode honestly might be seen as 'boring' to some people, but I personally have gotten the most play out of it. I love mindlessly exploring games just to destress, and having something like that with an active dev adding new stuff all the time is pretty great. I never have been able to find anyone to play multiplayer with, admittedly. But with the leaderboards and added weapon content and stuff, I can see it being pretty fun! Also, keep in mind, screamer sounds can be toggled in settings if you want to play without having your ears blown out in the normal mode lol. Not anything jarring or scary, just loud! (But I'm sure there are people made tense by that kinda thing) All in all, if you like a lot of options for play, or just need a game to explore for the sake of exploring, I can rec this!

The backrooms survival is one of the best backrooms games that you can get,of course they are some backrooms games that could take the lead The backrooms survival Has an Giant amount of content wich gives you the right to Play it forever.For starters this game is being worked on non stop with new updates being realsed after a fair amount of time,those updates have always bug fixes and some new features altough there were a lot of game changing updates.The game Has four gamemodes permadeath,adventure,sandbox,and a exploration mode (with no hostile creatures) in my opinion the best mode is the permadeath (it was a original mode before all the 3 orther ones) and is fairly the most intresting,the Main gameplay loop is to survive monitor your Hunger and thirst,Search for supplies and tools,Craft,and evade or kill the entities.The more you sit in a level the more dangerous it becomes and i really love this feature there are a ton of levels and there are a few ways to get out of a level.There are negative levels aswell wich are more dangerous but have way more loot to find.The backrooms survival plays incredibly well in multiplayer having even a pvp setting.The entities themselves are incredibly well made with having their own categories,behaviours and habitats.The game Has a pretty big pool of weapons and tools too bats,axes,pipes,wrenches,pistols,rifles,shootguns and a ton more.The backrooms survival is a Great game and i reccomend trying it out if you're Somone whos bored with the typical run and hide backrooms games and wants some resource management, sure the game is sometimes Janky and buggy but its addictive 9.5/10

April 2024

If you're looking for a backrooms game that is true to the backrooms wiki, i would not recommend this game, instead i would recommend Enter The Backrooms. But if you're looking for a game that is a pretty fun survival experience, then i would recommend this game. Oh also, if you're looking for a game that loves to make you deaf, i would recommend this game.
