About the Game

“This place cannot be explained with logic. Record. Survive.”

Become a test subject for Axiom Corp. (hereafter Backroom Company) and explore the unknown space hidden behind the Noclip phenomenon: the “Backrooms.”

Your mission is simple. Capture anomalous phenomena and transmit the data while staying alive.

Official Release on July 30, 2025: Go Deeper

Your exploration now goes beyond the hotel, swimming pool, and parking lot—into the foul-smelling “Sewers” and the eerie “School.”

  • Exploration Mode: Face the fear of getting lost in ever-changing environments.

  • Story Mode: Follow a fixed map and uncover the massive conspiracy Backroom Company has been hiding.

Core Gameplay: Filming Is Survival

Collect strange items scattered throughout the rooms and record unidentified entities to leave evidence.

The data you capture becomes your survival score—and your key to escape.

“Hide or Stay Silent”

The beings of the Backrooms do not welcome you.

  • An immortal entity relentlessly chases you. The locker room is your only safe haven.

  • A monster without eyes detects even the faintest breath. Muffle your footsteps and hold your breath.

“Work with Your Team”

Team up with your companions. But remember: more terrifying than any entity may be a teammate in panic.

(No matter how angry you get, try not to kill your teammates on purpose. Probably.)
