About the Game

Experience the liminal world of the backrooms through a VHS camera, immersing into a mysterious story and wandering the dream-like structures... Might there be something following you?

The Complex: Found Footage is a walking simulator, viewed through a VHS camera. Uncover the mysteries that lie in the world of "The Complex", though they may leave more questions rather than answers...

NOTE: This game is not connected with Kane Pixels' Backrooms nor the Backrooms Wiki/Fandom, though some parts of the experience may be inspired by them.
