I want a refund

I bought the full game. It ended up glitching out every time I went to play the next chapters. I had to delete it, get it back, and still did nothing. I know it isn’t a space issue or WiFi issue or a controller issue. I want my money back.

cool

i looked at the reviews for this game and they made it seem pretty cool.then i played the game and i didnt understand the hype.yeah the only thing that really creeped me out were the noises and those werent even scary either.and plus when i started i was bored out of my mind,i agree the graphics are cool but you also walk really slow and nothing really happens besides the duck.overall its fine

Listen up

This game is by far the best liminal game out there but 10$ for 30 minute lasting 6 chapters Thats only over 200 minutes of play time which may seem like a lot but for something that you’d only play for like a month in a half at least make it less than 5$ thank you for this amazing experience

Good but one thing…

This is the first good Backrooms game I’ve played and part one was amazing! But it kinda sucks that everything else costs money. As a kid with a budget, (allowance) this puts it down a star. But otherwise, it’s a great game 4/5 stars

Charging money just to open a map? At least I could tolerate watching ads. It's not that I don't have money, it's just that I can't stand having to pay for everything

★★☆☆☆ Canada · v3.1 · 7 Jun 2026

Kinda lame

All you do is walk around, the map ain’t that big, it took 2 mins to do the full map, and they’re is no monsters, no sprinting, so all you do is walk around. If this had monsters it would be a lot better, and maybe some missions.

★★★★☆ Canada · v3.0 · 14 Mar 2026

Great.

It’s an amazing game- feels classic, and of course, liminal. It’s very calm and engaging, though I’d extremely appreciate a way to implement entities (in some way, like a menu toggle) so it doesn’t feel repetitive or overly tense. This is the only thing preventing 5 stars. Great job!

Where are the monsters??

It’s kinda boring and I don’t know how to like get to the next level, it’s like a never ending pool loop. I get that it’s called ‘pools’ for a reason, but it’s just honestly so boring. You will get tired of it too quickly and that’s what annoys me. Graphics and quality is good though.

Little me healed

Little me was obsessed with the back rooms and liminal spaces and all of that. This game just brought that little me back and healed. It’s so fun, gets you tense, and is so realistic I though I could use it as a backrooms tape! Please get the game

A request and gave is amazing

The game is very nice and good and I enjoyed it but I think you should add multiplayer so players can play with their friends too but I love the game and it’s amazing I love how we can control the game but I really request multiplayer and maybe make another version of it but like flower fields and like that

— Layaail

★☆☆☆☆ Canada · v3.0 · 6 Feb 2026

Meh

It was very meh. From comments on here I was expecting a lot more than what I played. Expecting too much or people are much more dramatic? Either way this game just lacks a lot except for graphics. I’ve seen dozens and played a few games just like these backrooms knock offs that were much more thrilling and on edge then a maze to the end.

I loved the first free level, so I had to give at least 2 stars, but when I went to purchase the full game, it originally read 12.99, my account was charged 41 dollars, I have zero clue how this happened but I feel cheated

Great demo

So I bought the app and it had very good graphics. I beat the first version and it was so fun. But I did not toiletries by the full version yet but I think it’s a bit over priced so if you could lower it just a little I think that would be better. Overall it has great graphics and the full version is a bit overpriced but the demo is great. Sincerely, Me
