Our take on Backrooms - Surreality
Players who need a clear objective may bounce off when they realize survival is the stated goal and finding a way out is only a possibility. The other likely sticking point is the release scope: the feature list names three levels, which may not suit players expecting a broad range of settings.
What is Backrooms - Surreality?
Backrooms - Surreality is a survival horror game set in the Backrooms.
Players explore procedurally generated rooms across three levels while trying to stay alive in a hostile environment. Several threats and challenges stand between them and survival, and a sanity system tracks the character’s mental state. The possibility of finding a way out is left open. Players can explore the maze-like spaces or evade hostile creatures and try to survive for as long as possible. The release feature list includes endless Backrooms, three levels, multiple threats and challenges, and the sanity system. Multiplayer, VR support, and further levels, entities, and objects are described as future priorities rather than current features.
