13 itemsAbout the Game
Empty streets between soulless buildings… Structures that feel familiar yet alien… And the feeling that something is constantly watching you…
Liminal City is an exploration-focused psychological horror and liminal space experience in the ultra-realistic VHS style, developed with Unreal Engine 5. As you navigate the relatively "safe" streets of Backrooms Level 11, reality can suddenly shift and you find yourself in unexpected levels. Is there an escape? Or is this your new reality?
KEY FEATURES
Ultra-Realistic Atmosphere: VHS aesthetics with creepy analog horror details, developed with Unreal Engine 5.
Realistic Camera Movements: Realistic camera movements that allow you to experience the first-person perspective in the best way possible.
Dynamic Level Transitions: You could be dragged into a different Backrooms level at any unexpected moment.
Psychological Horror: Every moment you think you're safe, you'll realize something's wrong.
Mystery and Exploration: Secret passages, strange events and anomalies await you in the depths of Level 11.
You may think you're alone in this world. But in the shadows, there are those who notice you. Some just watch you, others want so much more. No matter how far you walk, are you really getting closer to the exit, or are you getting closer to them?
Silence no longer provides peace. Are the footsteps echoing in the void yours alone? The hums sometimes approach, sometimes recede. It's as if someone watching you is holding their breath. Even silence follows you here. Now you know... you're not alone here.
