How to Play

The core gameplay revolves around asymmetric multiplayer: survivors vs. one monster. Survivors move through the backrooms, searching for items and completing tasks (e.g., repairing equipment, collecting keys) while avoiding the monster. The monster can track survivors and has unique abilities to hunt them. The game is divided into zones; survivors must finish all objectives in a zone to progress. Communication and coordination are vital for survivors to distract the monster or solve puzzles together. The monster aims to eliminate all survivors before they escape. Matches are intense and fast-paced, with frequent chases and reversals.
