  I already love the concept and many of the items I can find. I can't wait to see what else you guys do with the game. And although I didn't play it too long because I'm not much of a horror game, do you think it'd be possible to get multiplayer? I get that the lore doesn't really have multiple wanderers together but then again the lore is massive.

  This game is unlike any backrooms game that we have gotten so far but it needs work. The game definitely has potential and I feel like if it gets the proper attention it can be an amazing game. The controls feel kind of janky and the item and character models could use some work, along with the guns and shooting but the bow and arrow works great. I also recommend a seperate ammo storage instead of it taking up the item slots. Overall an ok game with great potential

  This game has more potential then I can articulate with words. It does have a good amount of rough edges and bugs but the developer directly replies to bugs posted in the discord and updates much more then what would be considered regularly. The game also has more backrooms levels then I could have asked for and has got me to quit the game out of pure fear multiple times This game is worth the money even in its current state let alone how it will be in the future (also to note that the developer is a nice guy who will reply to bug fix requests on the discord extremely timely)

  This game hopefully will have a great future. For now, however, it isn't really at it's best. The Index controls are astoundingly janky, but you can still work with them. I really like the Boneworks style movement, as i'm pretty used to it and got the hang of it pretty easily. >>This part about the guns is no longer applicable!! The guns had a bug where they did pretty much nothing.<< The guns can be worked on quite a bit, however. I don't know if my shots are even hitting or phasing through the entities, but if i do know that it's hitting by the blood on them, it feels like it's doing absolutely nothing. The guns have either abysmal damage, or the entities have astonishing healthbars. I once killed one of those puppets that play the music, by shooting it with a full Uzi magazine and then trying to stab it with a knife. I don't know if the knife killed it because it just kinda bounced off the first time, but it fell over the second time i hit it. I have only explored Level 0 and 1 thoroughly, but damn is the Level List intimidating. There's so many levels, i think if the game gets the polish it needs, more items, and generally adding more things that aren't levels, then this will be the best Backrooms VR title on steam, by far. I did have a ton of fun playing this the first go around, so here's your Recommended review! Please make this game what it wants to be!!

  Experienced on the Meta Quest 2

  You can view my initial impressions review & gameplay here: https://youtu.be/oNow-gfqS5I I really do like this game. Although it's not advertised by the dev, I'm pretty confident it uses the VRGK for Unreal Engine. If you are familiar with the Virtual Reality Gamekit, then you know it has pretty good, if janky, sandbox physics for VR. In theory, this allows for the dev to focus on the game design versus spending time trying to re-invent the wheel. What this means is that this game already has a certain feel to it that anyone who has played around with VRGK will instantly recognize. You can do cool stuff like shoot a balloon gun and float up in the air or use a thruster gun and hover around the air or use a crowbar to hang from a ladder and pull yourself up and then zip line down a cable with the crowbar in hand. You can grab the toolbar from different areas of the tool. You can use a tool that is like a suction cup to wall climb that is the coolest tool in my opinion. The gameplay outside the VRGK toolkit is difficult to describe. It's a horror game. Each level has different tasks. You basically have to find a way to find or open the "no-clip" zone. There's just so much variety and I barely scratched the surface in my 2 hours of gameplay. In one level, I had to find all the levers and after I pulled them all a ladder opened up that I could climb to a higher floor. Once there, I had to find the secret area and carry the right item to open up the "no-clip" zone. In the meantime, all kinds of creepy stuff happened. Your sanity meters goes down and you have to drink almond water to regain your sanity & health. Game is running on the Unreal Engine. On my RTX 3080, on the highest settings available, I was getting mostly 90 fps. I did experience one serious bug where the level did not load after hitting a no-clip zone. Also, you have to manually exit the game from the Steam interface in order to stop the executable. You do have full locomotion, as well as smooth and snap turning available. You can play seated, but I recommend standing because the holsters can be a bit finnicky otherwise. This is an experimental game in Early Access. So it has a lot of jank. The gameplay can also be confusing, but I suggest just reading the notes that are lying around to figure out how to exit the level. I had fun, especially for $5 USD. Since there's so much of the game I haven't experienced, I don't feel comfortable scoring the game. However, I do recommend it. I think it's a bargain for only $5 USD normal price (I got it with the 15% release sale on Steam). Rate ?/10. If you enjoyed my review, please consider joining my Steam Curator Group.

  This game has a lot of potential and is fun to explore, but as it stands right now it is very laggy and needs some more things to do.
