The Backrooms 1998 is a first-person horror game inspired by the internet's liminal-space mythology, dropping players into an endless maze of unsettling, empty rooms rendered with a deliberately dated visual style. Survival depends on navigating its disorienting corridors while avoiding whatever lurks within.

Tension builds through claustrophobic exploration and limited resources, as the retro presentation amplifies a sense of unease. Fans of atmospheric horror will find its eerie, liminal setting distinctly unsettling.
