Forum Overview :: The Backrooms :: The Backrooms: Survival

[quote name="pinback"]https://store.steampowered.com/app/1889640/The_Backrooms_Survival/ This one strays the furthest from the "official" Backrooms canon, and not coincidentally ends up being the best game. It uses pixelated graphics and a VCR found-footage filter to great effect, resulting in a perfectly good haunted house game. The Level 0 wallpaper is there, but other than that, it doesn't feel particularly "Backrooms-y". The corridors are generally tight and the rooms claustrophobic, so the liminal space effect is largely lost, but what you're left with is a perfectly scary game where some crazed, screaming monster could be around any corner. It has stamina, hunger, thirst, and sanity meters, but none of them require any annoying timer-based activity on the part of the player. It is the only one so far in this list that I can state confidently is a good game, but also the only one on this list that may not even belong here.
