The Backrooms

The Backrooms are an internet urban legend, and a location that Garfilled frequents in Minecraft.

## DESCRIPTION

The Backrooms are an infinite series of labyrinth-like liminal spaces, with many hostile entities inhabiting them. In the Minecraft world, it follows pretty much the same principle. In the canon, to get to the Backrooms, you must "no-clip" out of reality. This is done by phasing through a solid object. In the Minecraft world, this is accomplished by suffocating in a block, usually sand or gravel. Once this is done, the individual is in the Backrooms. In the videos, Garfilled goes into the Backrooms, at least initially, to survive [REDACTED] days. In the end, he stays for much longer, leading to his mind deteriorating, which ultimately leads to him embarking on a quest to find the hypothetical "exit" of the Backrooms. In the first video, it appears that he actually manages to do this, but ends up realizing that the world he is in is simply another level.

In his latest Backrooms video, "I Escaped [REDACTED] Days in the Backrooms in Minecraft...", he manages to find the exit, but, like the end of the first video, it leads him back to Level 0. However, he refuses to give up, and makes his way back to the exit an unknown amount of times, every time leading to the same result. His final attempt appears to be successful, but it is implied that he perished partway through the journey, and that the ending was all a mirage.

## LEVELS

* Level 0
* Level 1
* Level 2
* Level 3

Level 0 is the first level of the Backrooms, and the first level that Garfilled arrives at when first noclipping into the Backrooms. It is comprised of a labyrinth of rooms, seperated by walls covered in mono-yellow wallpaper with patterns og stripes and triangles on them. The floor is matted with a deep yellow carpet, occasionally stained with a puddle of varying color. There is not much variation to this level, aside from minor changes. An example is the wallpaper changing from stripes to polkadots. The other is much more significant. The area affected has every light shut off, and the wallpaper is torn in some places, revealing the wooden framing beneath. To exit this level, one must find a portal, indicated by a droning noise, that will take them to the next level.

Level 1 is the second level of the Backrooms, and the second level that Garfilled encounters during his time there. Level 1 is comprised of a similar layout style to Level 0, except this time, the walls are made of stone bricks, and the floor is solid stone. The only variation to the level is some parts of it having all of the lights turned off. On a similar note, the only known abnormalities of note are chair being seen in various parts of the level. These serve no known purpose. Finding the portal in this level will take you to Level 2.

Level 2 is the third level of the Backrooms, and the third level that is traversed by Garfilled. It is vastly unique from the other levels, due to the fact that there is no maze-like layout. The level consists of a singular linear service hallway, being carved directly into the stone. The only thing of note is the large black pipe lining one of the walls. The path is very straightforward, with no deviations or cutoffs present. Walking down the correct end of this hallway will take one to the portal of the level, leading to Level 3.

Level 3 is the fourth level of the Backrooms, and the final level that Garfilled encounters on his first time in the Backrooms. It is comprised of similar design to Level 1, with the floors being smooth concrete instead of stone. The roof of this level has metal grating, with small, thin black pipes running behind it. The level itself is veru claustrophobic, with many dead ends and not much room in each corridor. Find your way, and you will eventually find the portal leading out. This portal has a random chance to either take you back to Level 0 or the overworld. Pray it's the latter.
