### 3/5 — На любителя

*2026-06-10*

Графика не плохая, но мне не нравится то, что спринт действует секунды три, из-за чего ты чувствуешь себя выкидышем пытающимся ползти. 
Также странно смотреть на то, как к тебе идет дешёвая пародия Миноса Прайма, почему-то без головного мозга и застревает в текстурах (как и ты сам)

### 4/5 — Fewer monster spawning

*2026-05-03*

I like this game but almost every level the clear boss spawns and I can’t get on the journey so can the monster spawn at fewer levels

### 3/5 — unplayable

*2026-03-23, version 2.0*

i had to delete this game. it’s so hard to walk and or run. the buttons don’t work properly. i couldn’t play it.

### 2/5 — Bleh

*2026-02-21*

It has really good quality. There’s music to help you keep calm. But there’s on thing that’s bugging me. There are monsters. Not scary monsters but they look like naked people. And if you touch them they make you start at the beginning. I have a different game called pools and there are no monsters that challenge you.

### 4/5 — I Love this game

*2026-01-10*

I lick how the levels are actually puzzles and their not to easy I liked the first game but this one that’s there are more levels than one

### 4/5 — It was so fun but I died lol

*2025-12-08, version 2.0*

4
Lol

### 3/5 — Really nice work but man no adds

*2025-11-16*

So this is really good but look at a comment called “broken” that’s happened to me before in the previous part of the game.

### 4/5 — wow

*2025-11-07, version 2.0*

nice i like liminal pools

### 4/5 — Wish there was a save/continue option.

*2025-10-13*

I played for about 30 minutes straight, and died at some point. The game itself looks pretty good, and the puzzles/exploration aspects are nice, but I’d rather not start from the very beginning every time I die. A continue option starting the player at the beginning of the level they died at would be greatly appreciated, considering that most levels look very similar.

(& maybe making the control buttons a bit smaller, leaving more room for controlling the camera)

With the above issues fixed, this would easily be a 5/5; fun small Poolrooms-type game!

### 1/5 — Awful mechanics

*2025-06-11*

If you’ve ever wanted to play a game that makes you experience the same feeling when you’re running from something in a nightmare and your legs weigh a thousand pounds each, look no further— this is the perfect game for you! And by perfect I mean 1/5 stars 🙃 I was excited to play this as I love poolrooms/liminal core, but the walking feature is SOOOO SLOW!!! There’s a button that lets you “run,” except it’s not much faster than the walking pace and only lasts for around 2 seconds before you resume sluggishly poking along. Then you have to wait a few more seconds before you’re able to use the running feature again. The background music becomes obnoxious and unnecessary after the first five seconds, and randomly fades in and out with weird chunky beats that don’t match the liminal vibe. Not only that, but you’re supposed to be escaping from a monster who shows up each new level, but how can you do that successfully if you’re only able to walk two steps an hour??? Would not recommend if you hate slow walkers irl, this’ll make you want to chuck your phone at a wall 😭

### 1/5 — Ewwww

*2025-05-27, version 2.0*

So bad

### 3/5 — It’s ok

*2025-04-29, version 2.0*

You guys should add like scary music and other scary stuff. To me it’s not that fun  can you please make it a little more scary

### 3/5 — Not too bad

*2025-03-07*

I’d say the game was pretty enjoyable and very nice atmosphere, maybe add some scary music in the darker areas. I’m not sure if I was at the final level, but there was this big red slide that leads down below the water that you have to go through. No matter what I did after many attempts, I wasn’t able to slide down. It will just throw me off the slide. Not sure if I should blame the controls or say it to a glitch but honestly I think it needs a bit of work on the controls and mechanics.

### 1/5 — Didn’t Even Load

*2026-06-07*

I opened the app, it showed the game dev’s name & their logo, then it went to a black screen & stayed on it. I waited about 5 minutes for it to load, didn’t work. I left, reopened the game, let it load again, still stuck on the black screen. I didn’t even load into the game because it was working.

### 1/5 — ❓❓❓

*2026-06-03*

игра без смысла❗️❗️❗️

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-04-23, version 2.0*

If you want a good poolroom games get pools that one is good

### 1/5 — A bad copy of a real game

*2026-03-04, version 2.0*

There is a game on the app store of the same name "Pools". If you wanted to play a real game that is a thousand times better look for "Pools". In addition, you have to pay to remove ads. Worst game

### 1/5 — WORST BACKROOMS SCAM RIPOFF FAKE STUPID GAME (not to be harsh but its true)

*2026-01-27*

So the controls are like trash plus when ur on sprint its stops 3 seconds later. And not only that but when u say its scary and there is monsters/entities i never came across a single one!! And since there is i never came across any entities it was kinda boring

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2025-12-15, version 2.0*

Horrible

### 1/5 — Adds

*2025-11-12*

Ok so the graphics are good and there’s good puzzles but I wish you would make the no adds things somewhere else because I kept accidentally clkicking it and it ruined the gameplay so I would not recommend

### 1/5 — I tried

*2025-11-10, version 2.0*

Looked promising, but got deleted after 5 minutes. Movement is such a pain that it‘s not worth the effort.

### 1/5 — pene

### 5/5 — About the monster in the Wetrooms

*2025-06-02*

So you can only look at this review if you want information about this monster. So you had been wondering about this clear-human-like monster this monster is called the Clearboss, also known as the Glitchman. The Glitchman only chases you when you’re about to exit. His story was scary. So he was just a man, walking around his house as usual, but one day, he saw a weird pool in his backyard, it seemed deep to him. But when he dived, a venomous animal bitten his head. The toxins turned him clear. Now, his head was cut and he teleported in the Wetrooms, roaming chasing people when they tried to exit. Note: I have to be real but this is fiction and non-fiction.

### 5/5 — 全く期待していませんでしたが….!!

*2025-05-19, version 2.0*

Dreamcore系のゲームがことどとく自分の持っているハードと合わず、期待せずこのゲームをやってみました。初めは仕組みがいまいちわからずで同じ場所をぐるぐる….でも彷徨い感を味わえれば良いやと思ってやっていたら、謎のボタンが出現。適当に押してみたら、あれ？さっきまで開いてなかった鉄格子が開いてる…とやっているうちにめくるめく異空間が。音楽がちょっと好みじゃないのでオフにして、別のもの聴きながら足音だけオンにしてやってます。無料でこれだけできれば大満足です！

### 5/5 — Very enjoyable

*2025-04-11, version 2.0*

I like this game and it’s fun little levels

### 5/5 — Peaceful

*2025-01-02, version 2.0*

This game is so peaceful i thought it was going to be just a scary backrooms level but no it so beautiful but i just got this game so i dont really know whats going to happen throughout the game.but its so beautiful and the background music is so good.i like the game.its so nostalgic too this game gives me a peaceful vibe.and I really really recommend this game🤩

### 5/5 — Nice App

*2025-01-02, version 2.0*

Well designed, so fun to play, enticing but not unplayably hard. All around this is a great game with awesome liminal spaces to walk through, and endless fun to be had. One of the best Backrooms games I’ve played.

### 5/5 — 5 stars so you see this!!!

*2024-12-25*

Horrible game, controls and sound design and graphics are all just the lowest tier. HAS ADS IN THE ACTUAL GAME AS YOU PLAY!! Horrible game, bad experience. YOU HAVE TO PAY TO CLOSE THE ADS. Just do t waste storage space, 1 star and id rate it 0 if possible. 0/10 game.
