Early Access Review
I dont have too many hours as of yet but my experience so far has mirrored a lot of the reviews. too many enemies makes it not scary. had 2 bacterias and another thing i dont know the name of chasing me at once. A lot of just avoiding enemies. Game has a lot of potential but I hope that the amount of enemies changes. A big part that makes me personally love the backrooms is the emptiness of it and having the entities be a rare encounter. Having the long silence disturbed by the monsters makes it much scarier when you actually see an enemy instead of it just being a game of avoiding a bunch of enemies. It's still early access and it looks like theres a lot of potential for the game so im looking more towards the future currently.

Also not sure if it's an issue or not but the laptops will have a green glow around them like you can interact with them but you cant. and there also seems to be infinite range on turning the generators on and off even if you arent looking at them, it just will turn on and off the last one you interacted with when you click M1. The interact keys are also not in the key bindings menu either yet.

It has issues but I have high hopes for this game's future. Since it's early access the devs are hopefully going to listen and work with the community to improve the game but in it's current state I can't really recommend it unfortunately but there is no neutral option for steam reviews so i have to select yes or no.

Also seems to be an achievement issue as well. I havent gotten the one for encountering the unknown thing that has a picture of bacteria on it but if it is bacteria and not something else to be misleading I have encountered bacteria multiple times and purposefully died to him once as well.
