About the Game



YELLOW is a liminal-space survival horror game where you play as a Major Explorer Group (M.E.G.) employee—fully equipped in hazmat gear—assigned to conduct routine inspections of various Backrooms zones and stations. Your task is to investigate newly discovered “Undocumented” entities lurking within these areas. These entities are completely new, with zero information available, so you must uncover their origins and determine why new sections of the Backrooms are appearing.

This game features multiple chapters/levels. In this build (0.1.0), there are four main levels, each with its own unique entity type, mechanics, and behavior:

Levels Available:

  • The Lobby

  • The Yellow Halls

  • The Dark Rooms

  • The Classrooms

  • More Soon!

The game includes a save system, allowing your progress to be preserved whenever you enter a new level, so you can continue anytime you want.

YELLOW is under active development, with new levels planned for every update.

Are you ready to experience a truly unique Backrooms horror experience?
