Backrooms: Escape the Yellow Rooms
In Backrooms: Escape the Yellow Rooms, you suddenly find yourself in a strange place that feels familiar, but really is not. These yellow rooms were clearly visited by someone before you, and they left clues behind so you can try to get out. The atmosphere is heavy and oppressive, with a constant sense of hopelessness and growing danger, all under an eerie waltz playing in the background. To escape, you have to find the source of this music and shut it off, but that will not be easy. The rooms are not what you want them to be. A black figure roams in the shadows, and it hates noise, especially your footsteps. If this entity feels that you have broken the silence, it will start hunting you, so every step becomes an important choice. If you are unlucky and it has already started chasing you, do not panic. It cannot open doors, so look for the nearest closet or lock yourself in a dead end room to catch your breath.
How to play?
There are several modes that completely change how you approach this horror game. Choose the one that suits you best and start exploring these mysterious rooms. Safe mode is for those who want to calmly explore the area and figure out how everything works. In this mode, the monster will not chase you, so you do not need to worry about making noise or knocking items off shelves. It is a good way to learn the map and understand the basic mechanics.
In normal mode, the creature appears and starts reacting to your movements, so you will have to be careful. If it hears your footsteps, it will begin to chase you. You need to hide in closets or run into other rooms, and it is important not to make extra noise so you do not get caught. Hardcore mode is for players who want the strongest scares. Here, the monster will hear your footsteps anywhere on the map, and closets will not help you hide. You will have to rely on your speed and your sense of direction to escape the chase. This is the hardest mode, where every step you take can decide your fate. While exploring the rooms, you must not only avoid the entity but also solve puzzles, search for hidden clues, and finally turn off the waltz music that stands between you and your escape.
