unlabelledView post →I just played “Backrooms: Escape Together” for the first time, and it’s a HUUUGE improvement from “Escape the Backrooms.” As much as I liked EtB, this game is more immersive, infinitely scarier, and has a collaboration with the movie. It’s worth the $20 for early access. #Backrooms

unlabelledView post →The only specifically "Backrooms" project I care for is the game "Escape The Backrooms" that the Game Grumps played. I am definitely interested in liminal spaces, though. Very intriguing. I love the uncanny valley of a place that is mysteriously empty and makes you feel like you shouldn't be there.
