BodyRecords brings an interesting twist to horror co-op, particularly with its live mic integration—a feature that adds both immersion and panic. The bodycam view works well to heighten discomfort and simulate a "found footage" style, and the concept of dying and ending up in the Backrooms is a clever way to extend tension without immediately removing players from the session.

But while the core concept is strong, the execution needs polish. Puzzle clarity is minimal to the point of frustrating. The tutorial essentially tells you to “use your brain,” which might sound cheeky, but comes across as lazy when you’re lost mid-session and have no clue what you missed. Bugs, like enemies pushing players through geometry or vital items disappearing permanently, also undercut the immersion.

That said, when it works, it really works. Creeping through abandoned hallways, whispering directions to your friend, then hearing them scream and disconnect mid-sentence? That’s the kind of chaos horror gamers love.
