Lost Hope: Backrooms

This game is not for everyone, it is not incredibly well polished, its very rough around the edges, but it does have a lot of charm. I'd probably tell my friends its a 6/10, but there are a few people i would whole heartedly recommend this to. The entire game feels like "i got bored and decided to do something creative for fun", there are choices all over that feel like they were made just because "why not", its a very novel experience even if its not "the best" experience

This game's very rough around the edges, but if you're looking for a Backrooms-style game that you can enjoy as both a solo player and when playing co-op with your friends, Lost Hope is a good pick, especially for the price. I also appreciate that, unlike pretty much every other Backrooms game developer that has insisted on including hostile monsters and entities, Lost Hope's devs put in the time to implement a "No Entity" mode for both the single-player campaign and the multiplayer 'Expedition' mode. To be totally honest, the game's still plenty spooky without the presence of entities, and there's plenty of level variety to keep you hooked whether you want to deal with entities or not.

for this to have been made by 1 person, it's SO good & super underrated! i love that there's levels in this game that you don't normally see in other backrooms games, and you can see how much work was put into all of them! i am a huge backrooms fan and this is probably my favorite game i've been able to find so far, and i would recommend over any other backrooms game!

Lost Hope: Backrooms approaches the increasingly familiar liminal-horror formula with an emphasis on structured exploration, survival, puzzles, and gradual progression. Developed by mdvd and published by Lost Hope games, it sends players into an unsettling collection of spaces connected to the abandoned Last Hope Inc. laboratory. Rather than relying entirely on endless randomized hallways, the game provides more than 20 handcrafted levels, giving its journey a stronger sense of deliberate design. The result is a Backrooms experience that tries to make discovering what happened just as important as surviving whatever is lurking nearby. The mystery surrounding Last Hope Inc. gives the exploration a useful narrative foundation. Players control one character while gradually piecing together the fate of another, uncovering information through environmental details, hidden areas, and scattered lore. This approach works particularly well for psychological horror because the story is not simply delivered through lengthy exposition. Instead, the environment becomes part of the storytelling. Exploring suspicious rooms and investigating seemingly insignificant objects can reveal information …

The kids screaming at you in level 283 is truely a supermarket experience. 10/10

Avoid this game, I played it a few months back after coming across it and quit halfway into the 1st level, theres no direction, the level design is awful and honestly it's probably the worst backroom game out there, i tried it again after the big update and sadly, still the same, the games not playable and you will be bored 10 minutes in, just being blunt and honest, it may be cheap, but its still too much, to say this game is now "full game released" is a joke.
