Our take on Backrooms: Liminal Conflict
Rather than centering on one hero's route through a hostile setting, the game divides players into opposing factions with conflicting objectives. Escape, protection, and capture become competing roles within the same layered backrooms map.
What is Backrooms: Liminal Conflict?
Backrooms: Liminal Conflict is a player-versus-player game set in the backrooms.
Players choose among M. E. G. Researchers, M. E. G. Mercenaries, and Followers of Jerry, each with different objectives. Researchers seek an M. E. G. outpost, while Mercenaries protect them and Followers capture wanderers for their secret base. The game uses a multi-layered map with several possible escape paths. Hostile entities include Partygoers, which chase non-participants and tire quickly; Smilers, which disable light sources nearby; Skinstealers, which imitate their last victim; and Bacteria, an unidentified threat that requires distance.
