Backroom Company specializes in studying a supernatural phenomenon known as 'Noclip,' which creates randomly connected backrooms. No one knows who founded this company or why it was created. Many hired explorers have lost their way in these labyrinthine spaces and disappeared for unknown reasons. As players, you must track the traces left by previous expeditions and collect bizarre items found only in the Backrooms. Your ultimate goal is to send these items to the dumbwaiter in the main control room.

You must avoid entities in the Backrooms and farm and sell items to achieve your target amount. Up to 8 players can cooperate in play. Surviving and collaborating in areas filled with dangerous entities and traps are essential. You may take on tasks such as selling items or luring and defeating entities. Venturing alone can be risky at times, so maintain good communication with each other. Confident explorers can also try solo challenges.

In the main control room, you can buy and sell items. Make sure you have a gun or recovery drink ready before you head out on an expedition. You cannot carry many items, so you must choose carefully. When you select a stage in the main control room, the tightly closed iron door will open, and the exploration will begin. When the iron door opens, the control room will no longer be safe, so be careful. Even if you sacrifice yourself and die, if your teammates reach the target amount, you can escape the room with the team. If the target amount is not met more than three times, the main control room will no longer operate, and the stage will end.

Make good use of your walkie-talkie to communicate with your teammates. If you move away from your teammates, the walkie-talkie signal may be lost. Even a seriously injured teammate can provide aid to others in the control room. When Bacteria, a black bacterium appears, run away quickly without looking back. It is incredibly fast and cannot be killed. If there is a locker room nearby, hide there. Hiding in the locker room is the only way you can survive. When the deformed-headed parasite appears, do not make any sound, not even footsteps or breathing. They cannot see us because they have no eyes, but they can detect us through sound. Fortunately, you can evade their attacks with your excellent physical abilities.

Good luck to all explorers. Oh, and one more thing, no matter how angry you get, do not kill your teammates.
