About the Game

You are trapped in a repeating street.

Observe your surroundings carefully.

Look for anything that feels wrong.

If you notice an anomaly, choose correctly.
If nothing is wrong, move forward.

Every detail matters.

The Exit Project: Backstreets is a first-person psychological horror walking experience where you are trapped in an endlessly repeating urban street.

This short, atmospheric horror experience is inspired by liminal spaces, urban backstreets, and the fear of subtle inconsistencies.

The environment changes subtly.

Missing objects. Unsettling sounds. Strange events.

To escape, you must make 10 correct choices in a row.
