✦ AI summary

Players are sharply divided on this game. Some appreciate its unique style and find it genuinely enjoyable or scary, while others view it as an unfinished, extremely short walking simulator that poorly represents the Backrooms theme and feels hastily made. The common criticisms center on the game's brevity, lack of polish, and departure from what players expect from a Backrooms title.

Bad Game. Just don't buy this. I hope I get my refund. I think game took less time to make than BanBan. Waste of time, just a walking sim that's 6 minutes. Plus it has nothing to do with the backrooms.

Genuinely one of the worst Backrooms game on the steam store, wouldn't even be worth it if it was free.

Games like Noita, where the physics is the real enemy

Games like Noita for the two things it really does: spells you assemble yourself, and a simulated world that takes nobody's side. Seven picks, from a slugcat to a dwarf fortress.

Tormented Souls price: a horror game that stopped moving

The Tormented Souls price has not budged in six weeks of our readings. What that means for buying it, and whether the 2025 sequel is the better purchase instead.
