Tidy Up The Backrooms

Game premise and objective

Tidy Up The Backrooms is a PC game where you take on the role of an archivist tasked with sorting and organizing a vast collection of recordings related to the Backrooms phenomenon. The game presents you with a chaotic archive containing decades of research, recordings, and found footage of entities and expeditions tied to levels of this mysterious realm. Your main objective is to restore order by locating and organizing these tapes according to their designated sections, subjects, and volumes.

Sorting mechanics

You will interact with a collection of 18,000 uniquely labeled tapes that reflect various aspects of the Backrooms lore. To complete your task, you'll need to read each tape's spine to identify its section, subject, and volume. After finding the correct rack for each tape, you'll place it in order. The game requires you to repeat this process across thirty-two sections, creating an emphasis on methodical sorting and organizational skills.
