Our take on Climb The Backrooms
The store copy gives equal weight to climbing, puzzles, secrets, and survival, but the specific activities described center on manipulating objects, decoding riddles, and dealing with threats. The promise of uncovering secrets is less defined than the game’s puzzle and traversal loop.
