It has a lot of potential. As of this review, it is Version 0.6.8. It has enough content imo to satisfy what I want in a Backrooms game, and given it's current price (Under 10 dollars/pounds) AND early access status, it's worth it. There's some cool puzzles and it's fun to explore and play through with a group of friends, granted the maps feel very large at first, which I suppose is what you'd want for a Backrooms game, but all of them feel like mazes which can get a bit frustrating if you keep getting lost throughout the game. The foundation is cool; I love the idea of an RPG-esque survival game set in the Backrooms. That being said, it is fairly limited at the moment. The first playthrough takes a long while due to the size of the maps and the nature of their designs leaning into the disorienting maze-like generation typical with the Backrooms. However, once you get the hang of it, the maps become fairly straight forward and repetitive as you realise there's not actually much you can do. The initial difficulty seems to come from trying to figure out where things are. Suburbs feels the least repetitive, probably because it's fully open and there are so many enemies and I think it highlights how great this game could be in future updates as more levels and enemies are added and is the perfect example of how important it might be to have more creature types, as although it does feel full, it's because it has every single enemy type on it, and it makes all the other maps feel a little more empty when going back to them after Suburbs. I really look forward to future updates as I feel this game just needs more content and this game is updating at a healthy pace (As of the date of my review). The idea we can collect stuff from our explorations, bring them back to base and use them to craft goods is amazing, but at the moment there's little I need to craft. It's just Energy Plus and tools really. I love the newer ideas of being able to go to different maps depending on which exit you take. Having different puzzles to figure out to head in a completely different direction is really cool and makes the game feel bigger. A bunch more levels, enemies, puzzles, and a more rewarding crafting system where we have deeper progression would elevate this up right up with the best of them.

Absolute masterpiece of a game! Super fun to play with friends, Dark ambience, spooky at times, few jumps scares but not too many. great variety in map designs (we like to bet on which colour the map will be) fun to search for suitcases or gifts to get new outfits. Really this game as everything!

I've been playing through the backrooms-type games that offer co-op. They were all fun (more or less), but Backrooms Society was the first one that felt like a fully-fledged game. I was actually kind of surprised at how polished it was, especially the multiplayer functionality with an interesting lobby, an actual inventory system, and persistent storage. Low learning curve, high replayability.

Quite fun, the crafting system just makes it more enjoyable since you gotta go back into older levels for loot!
