15 itemsAbout the Game
Transported into the endless liminal spaces of the Backrooms, armed with only a specialized vacuum and the wit of your friends, your job is to harvest the very substance the Backrooms are made of in the name of science. That is, while avoiding the life forms disturbed by your work, including the playful yet deadly entity known as Benny.
WARNING: Standard safety protocols and insurance policies do not apply.
Hold up… These creatures aren’t right…
Alcazar scientists have identified several life forms unique to this domain of the Backrooms, that all seem to be related somehow to the prime entity known as Benny. Sometimes playful, often horrific, these beings each have unique characteristics that makes Alcazar’s mission particularly challenging to accomplish while keeping its employees alive.
WARNING: Prolonged contact with entities may result in constipation, nausea, loss of sanity, or sudden death.
You can fit so much Tescil in this bad boy *slaps tank*
Your primary tool is your trusty T-Vac: a glorified vacuum designed to safely harvest Tescil without requiring direct employee contact with the substance.
Conventional equipment has been found to malfunction or fully disintegrate upon extended exposure to the Backrooms. Thankfully, Alcazar Industries has developed a line of unique field equipment from synthesized Tescil, disguised as playful ‘toys’, which seem to avoid this destructive process.
WARNING: Unreturned equipment costs may result in compensation deductions, a 500% markup fee, plus penalties, taxes, and additional operational overhead costs.
This isn't your everyday trip to the Backrooms. This is Benny's Backrooms.
Alcazar Industries has detected unusual material formations, unstable architecture, and concentrated deposits of Tescil, a rare substance believed to be connected to the structure of the Backrooms itself.
Your mission is to locate, extract, and return with as much Tescil as possible.
WARNING: Harvesting Tescil™ may result in environmental irregularities, entity agitation, and other consequences currently classified as an “acceptable operational risk.”
