Backrooms: New Gate

An immersive wandering simulator through the endless Backrooms. Explore empty corridors, listen to their whisper, and lose yourself in the depths of dark spaces. A subtly oppressive atmosphere, meditative strangeness, and the feeling of an alien, silent world.

Update - 25.11.2025

The game is currently in Early Access: I’m gathering feedback and gradually expanding the experience.

The project will be regularly updated with new chapters and content - this is part of my long-term development roadmap.

At the moment, the game includes the “Pool Rooms” chapter, with an average playtime of ≈ 45–60 minutes. I will be adding new sections and details to this chapter over time.

The interface is still minimalistic: there is a simple menu with basic settings.

The current settings include image quality adjustment and a frame rate slider to help tailor performance to your device.

An expanded settings menu (with additional options and improvements) is still in development and will be released within the next few weeks.

You can think of this game as an atmospheric installation where you don’t so much play as observe, listen, and gradually sink into the space. There are no quests or puzzles - only occasional moments that require attention. Most of the time, you simply… exist within a strange, enveloping world.

Note: the atmosphere may feel oppressive. The game plays on fears of getting lost, darkness, emptiness, and endless rooms. There are no dialogues or music - only distant echoes and the natural sounds of the environment. Movement across certain surfaces can be slower, making the experience more realistic and heightening the tension. There is no traditional story, yet the environment slowly changes, revealing new spaces and hidden meaning in each area.

As of now (25.11.2025), the game includes one large chapter, which takes approximately 45–60 minutes to complete.
