Steam’s creepiest new horror recreation now has a free demo

Unnerving as they’re, I really like liminal areas. These countless rooms and corridors which have a distinctly menacing aura about them, however nothing you possibly can fairly put your finger on. I’ve an innate curiosity in the direction of them, and no matter spookiness they could maintain. As such, I discover Backrooms on Steam to be very engaging certainly.

Primarily, Backrooms is a discovered footage horror recreation the place you wander by way of completely different deserted areas. There are creepy homes, dimly lit workplace corridors, and woods as darkish as night time. They comprise cryptids and different oddities, and all you’ve to do is survive and report as a lot as you possibly can.

It’s someplace between Blair Witch and an countless runner, and I’m all the best way in primarily based on the demo that’s obtainable on Steam. The quasi-ghost recreation leaves a haunting impression, with hyper-realistic environments, rendered in ’90s VHS crackle.

The important thing to those type of experiences, to me at the least, is a sense that one thing very incorrect has already occurred, or about to occur. Backrooms does that very nicely. Developer Discovered Footage Studios plans so as to add new ranges each second week, however the upcoming PC recreation may have an editor so you can also make your individual to commerce with different gamers.

There’s co-op too, so you possibly can all be spooked out collectively. Multiplayer video games of this ilk do very nicely on Twitch and YouTube, and I wouldn’t be shock if Backrooms finds an viewers there too. You need to test it out now if you need a quiet chill whereas the evenings are nonetheless chilly and darkish.
