The Backrooms runs smoothly on most modern browsers. For optimal performance, we recommend at least 4GB RAM, a dual-core processor, and an updated browser. The game automatically adjusts graphics settings based on your system capabilities.

The game automatically saves your progress at certain checkpoints and when finding specific items. You can also manually save by finding special rooms marked with glowing symbols. Note that dying will reset you to your last checkpoint.

Yes, the Backrooms offers three difficulty settings: Normal, Hard, and Nightmare. Higher difficulties increase entity aggression, reduce resource spawns, and make sanity management more challenging. We recommend starting on Normal to learn the basics.

The Backrooms features multiple entity types, each with unique behaviors and challenges. Players commonly encounter Smilers, Hounds, and Watchers, among others. Some entities only appear on higher difficulties or in specific areas of the maze.

Currently, the Backrooms is a single-player experience. The isolation is part of the horror atmosphere. However, you can share your experiences and compete with others through our online leaderboards and achievement system.

When your sanity depletes completely, you'll experience severe hallucinations and attract more entities. Your vision becomes distorted, and you'll hear false audio cues. If you don't restore sanity quickly, your character will suffer a mental breakdown.

Almond water can be found in various locations throughout the maze. Check office desks, water coolers, and hidden corners. The liquid glows faintly, making it easier to spot in dark areas. Some rooms have higher spawn rates for almond water.

Yes, there are rare safe rooms marked by specific wallpaper patterns or furniture arrangements. These rooms temporarily protect you from entities and slowly restore sanity. However, they shouldn't be relied upon as permanent shelters.

Your flashlight has a limited battery life that depletes with use. Battery drain rate increases in darker areas. Replacement batteries can be found throughout the maze. The battery meter shows both charge level and drain rate.

The Backrooms maze shifts periodically based on in-game events and time spent in specific areas. Some actions can trigger immediate layout changes. Learning to predict and adapt to these changes is crucial for survival.

Achievements are earned by completing specific challenges, surviving for set time periods, and discovering secret areas. Some achievements require multiple playthroughs or specific difficulty settings to unlock.

While the Backrooms is designed as an endless experience, there are multiple special endings that can be achieved through specific actions and discoveries. Each ending reveals different aspects of the Backrooms lore.
