## What is Backrooms Escape?

You woke up in the Backrooms — an endless maze of empty rooms, buzzing lights, and damp yellow wallpaper. You are not alone.

Something lives here. Multiple things. And they can hear you.

ESCAPE OR BE TAKEN
Navigate procedurally generated levels, manage your flashlight battery, and find the exit before the entities find you. One wrong turn could be your last.

5 NIGHTMARES HUNT YOU
- The Hound — fast, relentless, drawn to sound
- The Smiler — waits in the dark, strikes when you look away
- The Lurker — patrols the corridors, never sleeps
- The Wretch — mimics human movement to lure you in
- The Doppelganger — wears your face

SURVIVAL MECHANICS
- Flashlight with limited battery — darkness is deadly
- Sprint to escape, but noise attracts hunters
- Study the minimap. Memorize the layout. Find the exit.
- Collect codex entries to uncover the Backrooms secrets

MULTIPLE LEVELS
Each level is different — flooded basements, industrial warehouses, endless office floors. The deeper you go, the more dangerous it gets.

No weapons. No combat. Just you, the dark, and the things that live in it.

How long can you survive?

## Key features
