somewhat rated Lost in the Backrooms

somewhat rated a game 4 years ago
A downloadable game for Windows.

The most recurring dreams I have are those depicting an enfilade of rooms branching into one another, making it possible to constantly walk forward without ever backtracking, and always having the feeling of going somewhere.
This might be why the backrooms creepypasta resonates with me (and many others, I suspect) on a personal level.
Now, THIS interpretation of the backrooms is very competent, oozing mood by its every pore. Good music, subtle gameflow feeding player instinct (that 'melting' sound pushing you forward, indicating the birth of new possible pathways, etc.), superb ambiance. Came a point where I began to try to understand the procedural aspect of the game with almost superstitious analysis (always go up, never down; always go left, never right...), which in itself is a proof of great immersion, to me.

An incredible experience, and the best take I have seen so far on the backrooms.
