A terrifying multiplayer horror experience with social deduction elements. Trapped in the Backrooms, up to ten players must try to work together to survive and expose the shapeshifting Skin Stealer hiding among them before it’s too late. Who will you trust?
The core gameplay pits up to 10 players in a tense cat-and-mouse scenario, splitting them into two distinct roles - human Survivors and the shapeshifting Skin Stealer. Survivors must work together to expose and eliminate the hidden Skin Stealer in their midst, while the Skin Stealer must covertly eliminate the Survivors or infect them to join its ranks. This asymmetry creates a dynamic and unpredictable experience.
A major focus is the social deduction element, as players must carefully observe their teammates, utilize the proximity-based voice chat to communicate, and determine who among them is the Skin Stealer in disguise. The inability to fully trust one's teammates fosters an atmosphere of intense paranoia and uncertainty.
Survivors must scavenge the environment for crucial but limited supplies like weapons and health items, which are randomly placed. Efficiently managing these resources and deciding who gets access to them is a key part of the Survivors' strategy for survival.
As the Skin Stealer, players must rely on stealth and the ability to seamlessly blend in with the Survivors to achieve their goal of eliminating the team. Careful positioning, hiding, and timing their attacks are essential to success.
Each match plays out differently due to the combination of asymmetric roles, dynamic player interactions, and randomized element placements, ensuring a high degree of replayability for players.
Reviews praise the game's ability to create a truly immersive and tense atmosphere, with the claustrophobic Backrooms setting and the ever-present threat of the Skin Stealer contributing to a palpable sense of dread and paranoia throughout the experience.
Players highlight the developer's commitment to the game, with frequent updates, patches, and a willingness to engage with the community and implement feedback, which has contributed to the game's ongoing improvement and potential for growth.
