April 2025
I was a bit hesitant given the negative reviews, and generally when I see negative ratings on a game, I don't take the risk of buying it. But this time, I played multiplayer and the game is really very good. I really struggle to understand the people who rated this game poorly.

I just played Backrooms Rec. in VR yesterday, and it was awesome, I hope the Dev puts the whole game into VR, with the workshops, with better motion controller support, and adds full body instead of just seeing your controllers, if not full body, at least arms and hands to create better immersion.

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!

I really liked it a lot. If you're into Backrooms or anything similar, it's definitely worth it. I was going to give it a 10/10, but since it's still in Early Access, I found myself wanting more levels. I can say I'm going to be a little optimistic about the game because I really enjoy Backrooms, especially the Poolrooms. It has so much potential to become one of the best Backrooms games. The price is very low, and it almost doesn't have any bugs (I didn't find any, but I'm aware that some exist). The game is beautiful, and if you like Backrooms, it makes the experience even better. The multiplayer is very enjoyable, especially when playing with friends. However, because the game is short, it can sometimes be boring if you're playing alone. But in the Poolrooms, it can be very relaxing, even if you're just chatting with your friend(s) without doing much else. Of course, it's not perfect. The game’s level editor is quite bad I didn’t understand anything at first. After some time in any mode, it can get boring if you're completely alone, but that's fine. Final Opinion: It's completely understandable if you prefer to wait until the game is a bit more complete before buying it. However, the price might increase when that happens. For me, the game is worth the current price (I paid 45% off). Sorry for any mistakes my English isn't perfect, but even so, I think this game is worth my time to write about.
