How it feels

A tense, story-driven live-action horror experience where you explore a supernatural realm, solve its rules, and struggle to survive with occasional allies.

What players say

Players say the story is decent but the game feels short and lacks the scares of the first Back. The new multiple characters are not well developed, the translation is poor, and gameplay is mostly linear.
