What is Leave from Backrooms

Leave from Backrooms is a tense exploration game set in a maze of endless yellow rooms. It blends puzzle-solving with stealth as you try to outwit the entities that roam the halls.

How to Play

Move your character through the corridors using the keyboard or on-screen controls. Look for objects that can be collected or interacted with, and use stealth to avoid the creatures—if you're spotted, run and hide until they lose interest.

Tips for Playing

Stay off the main paths where possible; side rooms often hold useful items and safer hiding spots.
Keep an eye on your stamina meter—sprinting drains it fast, and you'll need bursts of speed to escape.
Listen carefully: distant footsteps or humming can warn you of an approaching threat.
Memorize the layout of areas you've already explored to avoid getting lost when you're being chased.
When you find a key or tool, check which locked doors it might open before moving on.
