The best videogame-developed-by-a-solo-potato I've ever played. Big schmautz.

Game is very challenging but isn't crazy long so it balances out. Highly recommend.

Single-playthrough, simple and fun horror game! Challenging enough to be fun without becoming frustrating. Gave us some laughs and clip-able moments. Definitely worth it and happy to support an indie dev. Looking forward to more games from this developer.

So I might've only played it on easy mode so far, but all in all a fun short horror game. I love anything to do with backrooms, however, I have to confess with the chaoticness of it all, it didn't really give as many backrooms vibes. You certainly don't feel alone in this game XD But that being said, I had a lot of fun playing it! The layout's not too disorienting, and the enemies weren't overwhelming. I'm yet to try it in normal mode, and might do so in the future. It's also funny in many aspects, and again, the map building was great. I've had far too many games where I get forever lost, and keep running in circles, it's much easier to keep track here. Also appreciate the save system, so you don't lose extensive progress if something dumb happens like me spontenously looking back only for me to plummet down a hole.... that only happened a couple of times. My favorite was the sock XD Absolutetly try and touch the sock. I'm telling you, you won't regret it All in all great short horror game!

Psycho I am leaving a review as asked of us :3 Game was fun, very hard at first but not impossible (even on psycho mode) PS you can stun lock the snowmen on moving spike pillars by cramming them against the wall and the pillar

This was my first ever experience playing a backrooms game, and I so far have loved every minute of it. The premise is simple: find all the gifts and get out. What makes the game so challenging is the enemies. You have to learn how each one works in order to know how to handle them. The dev is very open to feedback, and has already adjusted some of the enemies and added difficulty modes. I played on easy, and still found it just challenging enough to be fun but not so difficult I felt it was unfair. The save stations scattered about that allow you to save your present collection progress is a very nice touch (and saved me from replaying certain parts at times!). There were also parts I did find myself being genuinely startled. Nothing like flashing a dark room and finding yourself suddenly surrounded! I find the balance between spooky and silly nice. Overall, this game was very much worth it. For the Dev’s first game, he did an amazing job and I very much look forward to seeing what else he makes in the future.
