7 itemsAbout the Game
You've seen the backrooms, but not like this.
"Very Scary Backrooms Game" really is a backrooms experience like no other. Journey through liminal spaces while evading strange creatures. Who or what will you encounter? Find your way home...
if you can...
You wake up in an unknown location where everything is familiar, but not quite right. After navigating through this strange space, you will begin to realise that you might not be alone.
You'll hear things running around you.
Inanimate objects will appear to change their positions. Or is it all in your head?
You may even encounter other beings that are reminiscent of parts of yourself, but who knows if they'll help you or hinder you.
Very Scary Backrooms Game features three floors and can be completed in an extremely short amount of time with cunning, practice and healthy dose of luck.
"If you are in danger, run and hide."
WASD to move
Mouse to look
Esc for the menu (be sure to adjust your audio and sensitivity)
On each level, look for anything that could be an exit. Whether it be an elevator or a hole in the floor. Your goal is to get out as quickly as possible.
