About this game

The developer's description, from the game's Steam store page.

Backrooms: Insane is a first-person psychological horror and survival experience inspired by the unsettling universe of the Backrooms. Explore seemingly endless spaces, find a way to escape, and quickly discover that you are not alone.

Presented through a found footage aesthetic, the game is designed to make you feel as if you are watching recovered footage from someone who truly became trapped inside the Backrooms. The visuals, sound design, and environments are built to create a constant sense of isolation, vulnerability, and uncertainty.

Each level has its own rules, threats, and objectives. You will need to carefully explore your surroundings, find keys and important items, solve puzzles, activate mechanisms, and discover how to reach the next exit. But staying in one place for too long can have consequences.

AGAINST THE CLOCK

At different moments throughout the experience, timers and special events can completely change the behavior of a level. What begins as a seemingly calm exploration can suddenly turn into a race against time.

Countdowns may signal the beginning of a hunt, limit the amount of time you have to act, or warn you that something is about to change. When an entity begins chasing you, you will have to quickly decide whether to keep searching for your objective, hide, or run.

In certain situations, obtaining an important item or completing part of a level may cause the threat to stop being temporary. The entity will continue hunting you until you find the exit.
