40 year old unc here. I want to get into backrooms games but there's a bunch of them and I don't know where to start. Help me out zoomies.

finally the death of yellow paint. we just make everything yellow and the arrows black
>>
>>739903220
its like 7-8 years old
how have you not seen the games?
>>
>>739903220
Just search for the backrooms and play them
>>
just read the original post from /x/ and move on with your life
>>
>>739903220
Pools was a neat experience if you're looking for some backrooms vibes, its a pure walking sim though
>>
>>739903516
I want a cozy/creepy videogame to play.
>>
>>739903220
Pools and Anemoiapolis come to mind. Anything with too many wacky monsters roaming round is trash.
>>
I just can't see the appeal about this stupid shit. It's just an empty room with an ugly color scheme. What the hell is supposed to be scary about it?
>>
>>739903940
I've had Anemoiapolis on my wishlist for a while, hows it compare to pools?
>>
>>739903220
go ask worksafe request faggot

Yeah OP here I should specify that I'm looking for more vaguely creepy backrooms games.

Yeah true I shouldn't post a videogame thread on the videogames board. A porn/gatcha/ecleleb thread died for this!
>>
>>739903220
They're all just walking simulators with not much content, but the best ones you'll find is:
The Complex
also
Puppet Combo's The Backrooms
which I think is one of the best interpretations of it. It was made in the early stages of the creepypasta going viral and imo one of the better representations of the horror. Just weird shit and no way to get out.

>broccoli heads are scared of empty retail rooms and pools
>>
>>739903220
Play The Exit 8 and its train sequel. Otherwise, I'm not aware of any good Backrooms games.
>>
>Find out about the Backrooms wiki
>Hundreds of pages about different "levels" of the Backrooms
>None of you Youtube videos or games I've seen so far use these and instead have their own backrooms setting just based on the original 4chan post
Are there any games or videos that use that wiki as a foundation?
>>
>>739903220
These pictures of liminal spaces make me think of Dungeon Crawlers.

>uncs suddenly realizing that a record-breaking movie made by a 20yo zoomer director is on track to become the piece of media that will spearhead zoomer culture as the main driver of product consumption and marketing/media trends in the west

Oh, I forgot about Lucid Blocks. It's a nice abstract sandbox exploration game. I had fun trying to go as far up as I can.
>>
>>739903220
Is this because of the movie?
I'll warn you right now that there are no worthwhile backroom games
The closest you'll get to the spirit of it is the B3313 mod of Super Mario 64
>>
>>739903220
don't play any of the games, just watch complex research, reverselogic, helmertapes and kc14 cause that's about as good as backrooms gets until it starts delving into mr smiley slimey who turns you into smiling slime if you look at it for too long
>>
>>739906094
There's black people in it?
That's a skip then.
>>
>>739910268
The whole plot of the movie is a black guy killing white people he knows
>>
>>739910397
Damn that's even worse.
>>
>>739904989
Thanks
>>
>>739908664
Yes this is because of the movie even though I haven't seen it.
>>
Fucking hate how hipster pseud shit won.
>>
>>739906094
I hate that people think kane made backrooms. He didn't even make backrooms popular, it was already popular and he made something that was more effort than a meme
But holy shit he's only 20 I thought he was way older than that
>>
>>739903220
Another unc here. I'd also like to know, which of the games are good. But no one bothered to answer?

I'm looking for something where you get to map your progress manually, and also maybe build routes inside the maze, using stuff you've found. I don't need any monsters or jumpscares.
>>
>40
>says unc
Nah.
>>
Remnant 2
>>
>>739904015
There's no screens so it sends ADHD zoomies insane
>>
>>739903220
Just play Stanley Parable instead
>>
read house of leaves
>>
>>739911346
stanley parable is centered around the narration and its comedic tone.
it doesn't really have anything in common with backrooms aside from a meta premise of being in a videogame.
>>
>>739910918
unc is a euphemism for 'wasted opportunity' isn't it?
>>
Liminal Industries

>>739903940
>>739903701
Pools was dogshit. Zero variety.

Play Yume 2kki. It's unrelated to the backrooms but it's the best surreal world exploration game.
>>
>>739904015
watch the movie and find out
