❤ Overview

The game puts nine players in the role of Scientists trapped in the Backrooms, while a tenth player controls a shape-shifting Skin Stealer hunting them down. Currently in Early Access, the game has received mostly positive reviews from players.

❤ Social Deduction Gameplay

As a Scientist, you must work with your teammates to survive, scavenge for supplies and weapons, and identify the Skin Stealer in your group. The Skin Stealer's ability to impersonate other players creates an atmosphere of mistrust and suspicion, as you must be cautious about who you trust. This social deduction element is particularly engaging when playing with a group of friends.

❤ Survival and Scavenging

To survive, you must scavenge the environment for items like medkits, food, and firearms to defend yourself. The randomized spawning of these resources encourages you to thoroughly explore the map and manage your sanity and supplies carefully.

❤ Skin Stealer Abilities

The Skin Stealer player starts weak but gains strength by eliminating Scientists. Their shape-shifting ability allows them to impersonate other players, making it difficult for the Scientists to identify the true threat. The Skin Stealer can use stealth and direct confrontation to take down their opponents, leading to intense and thrilling moments.

❤ Player Feedback

Players praise the game's unique concept and engaging social deduction mechanics.

❤ Areas for Improvement

While well-received, players suggest areas for improvement, such as adding more maps and environmental variety, better weapon mechanics and balancing, and improvements to the voice chat system. The developers have been actively updating the game and addressing player feedback.
