I’m not sure why this game has mixed reviews! The developer clearly crafted each area with time and attention to detail, avoiding boring, randomly generated rooms. The game captures the creepy liminal atmosphere better than most other backrooms titles. The controls are smooth, with only some occasional sticky doors that I'm sure will be fixed soon. The gameplay offers open exploration in solo/multiplayer modes and scripted, solo 'found footage' episodes. Both modes offer unique and engaging content, with the found footage offering some truly chilling moments. Overall, I eagerly await more content updates!

Je l'ai pris à sa sortie, j'attends de voir encore un peu mais j'ai l'impression qu'il y a pas mal de niveau qui sortent, ça à l'air prometteur :)

I will happily remove this review and give the game a good review ... when they fix the framerate issues.

The yellow rooms ran well enough, but the bump mapping on the wallpaper made the SSAO really have some rendering issues... Had to turn off lumen otherwise I got all sorts of twinkles off in the distance ... everywhere.

The pools level with with all of the tile and water ... is abysmally slow. Even with sway & shake turned off, wobble wobble wobble at 10 fps. I had to turn down the graphics settings and still not much better. And once you get to the rooms that are covered in groin vaults ... b'bye framerate. It got so bad that even through I had made progress I had to stop playing.

I'm sure it would be nice with a big video card but ... if you don't ... beware.

Those negatives out of the way ... I like the ambiance of the levels. I wish the creature noises were a bit more present and encroaching but ... meh.

I really look forward to this game getting more love and attention, and hopefully having some real polish when it reaches release. I like the sound, I like the levels, I like some of the variations in geometry that were included. I dig on the puzzles.

So ... good and bad. I really want to recommend it, but the framerate issue is bad enough it killed my enjoyment.
