About this game

Step into the unsettling world of The Back Door: Emergence, a highly immersive single-player horror experience that challenges your perception of reality. Set in the year 2010, the story follows a routine urban exploration mission that spirals into an atmospheric nightmare. After losing track of your friends in a decaying, abandoned building, you find yourself transported into an endless labyrinth of liminal spaces—an unsettling dreamscape where normal physics and logic simply do not apply.


As you navigate through 9+ gripping chapters, you must solve environmental puzzles and survive in an environment that feels disturbingly familiar yet deeply wrong. This first-person exploration game focuses on psychological tension, forcing you to question your surroundings at every turn. You are left with one haunting question: if these abandoned, abnormal spaces go on forever, are you truly the only one wandering them?
