About BACKROOMS NO RETURN: Prologue
BACKROOMS NO RETURN: Prologue is a cooperative horror game where you play as a scientist exploring the nightmarish poolrooms dimension, only to discover there's no escape from the creatures hunting you. Navigate interconnected puzzles and environments with friends in proximity voice chat while using environmental clues to uncover your way back to reality.

- Singleplayer & Co-op Multiplayer
- Proximity Voice Chat
- Host and join lobbies

Play as a scientist whose goal is to explore the poolrooms. Finding a way back to reality will be your main goal.
As part of their ongoing research into human consciousness, the Neuro-Bio-Psychology Laboratory (NBP) has developed a revolutionary new machine. That teleports you into another dimesion called Backrooms. It is up to you how long you stay there...
With this technology, they can explore these dimensions in search for answers to this misterious dimension.

This game is powered by Unreal Engine 5 and we have focused on getting the best graphics possible to give you more immersion.

To make the levels more entertaining, you will have to complete a series of puzzles in order to continue. There are many different types of puzzles you will have to complete to continue your journe. The solution is not always obvious, but if you follow the trail of clues, then it should become clear what needs to happen next.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players overwhelmingly criticize the game for its poor graphics, awkward controls, and jarring audio design, with particular frustration directed at poorly executed jump scares that are more startling than effective. A few reviewers acknowledge it's a short, quick download that might entertain someone looking for a brief experience, though most feel the game fundamentally fails to deliver quality scares or engaging gameplay. The lack of content and generally amateurish execution make this a game most players regret trying.
Some may ask, why a Negative Review. This guy spent $100 to put this game on steam. I spent 26min to play it. Neither of his other games are out as of this posting. He is a slop maker, attempting to funnel us to his Patreon. 26min of walking. one small code puzzle, one short maze. Lackluster1 found this helpful

i did not like it very muc i kept on getting stuck on stairs and i kept phasing though walls
My game crashed right before the ending. The ready/unready button is inverted, and why is "ALT" to crouch. And why can't we jump? Only pro is the jumpscare was so scary that it make me and my buddy Joey audibly scream and poop pant. Story was confusing and that's coming from a 50 year old gaming veteran. I'm a streamer that goes by the name "Kainen", trust me
Very short and sad to not see the backrooms exept for small pool rooms.
