How to Enter the Backrooms
Getting trapped in the Backrooms isn’t accidental—it’s deliberate. The most popular method involves suffocating yourself by placing blocks above your head until you “noclip” out of reality. Once suffocation begins, players are transported to level zero of the backrooms, where the real horror begins.
Alternative entry methods include failed enderpearl throws or suffocating in falling blocks like gravel or sand. Each unsuccessful escape from the overworld becomes your one-way ticket into endless yellow corridors.
Survive Multiple Terrifying Levels
The mod features different levels including the iconic backrooms, the stairs level, and the viral pool level featuring an abandoned pool. Your objective? Survive each level’s unique horrors and progress to the next—easier said than done when hostile entities patrol every corner.
The mod introduces a sanity mechanic that affects your ability to navigate these oppressive spaces. New terrifying entities roam the halls with unique and terrifying behaviors, making every corner a potential death trap. Hundreds of custom assets and blocks create an authentically suffocating atmosphere straight from the internet’s most unsettling legend.

FAQs
Can I escape the Backrooms once I enter?
Yes, but it’s incredibly challenging. You must successfully navigate through all levels, defeating or evading hostile entities while managing your sanity and limited resources. The only food source available is rotten flesh, so come prepared with weapons and supplies from the overworld.
Is the mod compatible with other Minecraft mods?
Meulti’s Backrooms works with most Fabric/Forge mods, but note that some found footage variations use Veil shaders that aren’t compatible with Sodium or Iris optimization mods. Always check compatibility lists on the official CurseForge mod page before installing multiple mods together.
