Backwards

The rules are simple.

Walk backward.

Turn around if you are being observed.

Walk forward if you are in danger.

In Backwards, you are trapped inside an endless storage hallway where the environment constantly tests whether you understand those rules — and whether you can trust what you see, hear, and remember.

But the hallway is only the beginning.

Every stretch of corridor can behave differently. Doors may open onto impossible places. Entire worlds may unfold around you. Some encounters demand patience. Others demand immediate action. What begins as a strange set of instructions gradually becomes the only thing keeping you alive.

READ THE HALLWAY

Survival is not about combat. It is about observation.

Watch for movement. Listen for changes in the environment. Learn what it means to be watched, recognize when something poses a genuine threat, and understand when the safest direction is the one you were told never to take.

BEYOND THE HALLWAY

The deeper you venture, the less familiar your surroundings become.

Explore unsettling environments that extend far beyond the original corridor, each introducing new encounters, unexpected dangers, and challenges to the rules you've come to rely on.

What begins in an endless hallway gradually becomes something much larger, as the boundaries between places, memories, and reality begin to unravel.

EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED

Backwards features randomized events, environmental anomalies, rule-driven encounters, and larger cinematic sequences designed to make every run feel unpredictable.

Familiar spaces may behave differently. Encounters can unfold in unexpected ways. Even the hallway itself can become part of the threat.

SURVIVE ALONE OR COMPETE ONLINE

Experience Backwards as a single-player psychological horror journey, or compete with up to four players in online PvP multiplayer.

The rules remain the same. The challenge of surviving them is now shared with others.

KEEP MOVING BACKWARD

Most of the time, walking backward is enough.

Sometimes it isn't.

The longer you survive, the more aggressively the world challenges the rules you thought you understood.
