THE SCARIEST GAME OF 2022 - The Backrooms 1998

Easily the most insane indie horror game ive played in A LONG TIME. The ending story was so insane/sad. Anyways, thanks for watching *I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY LOVE ON THIS ONE!!*

Great game, amazing story, a shame that we lost half of the experience, without the mic the game feels kind of slow, without the mic "Timmy" can't hear you and he was roaming around until Hollow make some noise, with the mic all those jump scares should make Hollow scream and be chased by Timmy, that would put the video in other level. Great video like always but I felt it slow for that reason.

Like just wanting to hide or saying fuck that and running away. or when he gets over it and just plows ahead. And this had a good twist ending. Thanks Hollow for the great content!
