The Backrooms Deluxe 2

The game casts you as an explorer moving through a series of Backrooms levels, alone or alongside other players. Each level is a space to navigate and escape.

Search rooms and routes for objects, keys, and other ways to open a path forward. Interact with level features, work out what each area requires, and avoid entities as you make for an exit.

Runs use permadeath: a multiplayer run ends when all players die. You can combine positive and negative modifiers that change the Deluxe Coins earned, while achievements and level unlocks provide additional goals.

Positive reviews often highlight the fun of exploring levels with friends, where encounters and the entities’ odd behavior can make sessions feel funny as well as tense. Some players also enjoy the level designs and replay goals from modifiers and achievements. Other reviews describe online access problems, bugs, short levels, or unclear objectives, so these experiences are not consistent across the supplied sample.
