Can we play Escape the Backrooms
without getting scared?
Welcome to Good Mythical More.
We are playing Escape the Backrooms.
We've, we've, we've heard-
Hi … tale of the Backrooms.
We look the same as we do in the thing.
Yeah, I'm the guy leaning back.
See me?
Oh, look at- Look.
Whoa, look at you.
Yes, that's me.
I'm that guy.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
I, I'm the, I'm the guy,
I'm the guy looking down.
Where are you?
Where are you?
Oh, hey, there he is.
There he is.
Yep, okay.
All right, perfect.
That's us.
So now- What's this?
What's this?
This is the object of our game here.
That thing doesn't want us to escape.
That's a monster.
We wanna go into an exit
and we have to fix a ladder.
To fix a ladder.
All right, come on.
Let's go.
I'm not scared at all yet
Hold on.
K- don't, hey, keep following me.
What?
W- why, where are you going?
You gotta … Don't, don't l-
don't let me lose you, man.
Oh, I just thought I'd go
around this thing and find you.
No.
W- where- There, I see you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm just kinda … All right, come on.
This way, this way
So this is based on like
real underworld stuff.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, this is definitely real.
It was real when it was first on
the internet and then people started
making videos about it and then it
became a movie and it's 100% real.
It's, there's a real place.
I will say if you're in Oklahoma
City- Oh, what was that?
You just shook.
You got scared
Ah!
Uh uh.
Oh my God.
Dude, you l- why'd you l- oh, oh my gosh.
Ah.
Why did I just sit- Oh.
Oh my God.
That was uncalled for.
You just stood and watched
until you got eaten too.
I thought, I thought if I
was still he wouldn't see me.
Hey, next time let's move.
What I was gonna… Where are you?
Where are you?
Where are you?
Okay, I'm the guy looking
down and turning around.
Find me.
Find me.
I mean, that was traumatic.
You gotta f- there, there I am.
I think I found you.
All right, come to me.
All right, you lead this time.
I'll follow you.
'Cause I'll actually follow where you go.
Okay, you're here.
All right.
Okay.
This way.
Um, if you're ever in Oklahoma City, if
that thing comes back, run from it, okay?
But we can't run.
Go that way.
If we're, if you're ever in Oklahoma
City, there's a series of weirdly lit
tunnels that look just like this that
connect a bunch of businesses for, like,
a pretty extensive part of the city.
Shepherd and I, like, st- or Link and
I stopped there on a cross-country
trip, and it was very Backrooms-ish.
Where are you doing?
Where are you going?
Walking sideways
Hey, the, we're, we're about to see the guy.
Well, you need to be able
to get away from him.
Why, why aren't you following me?
'Cause you keep going
out, going in directions.
Getting in front of us.
Well, I'm, I'm looking at stuf- Get in front.
You look to the right and
left and I'll look straight
Or I- I'll also look.
I, I, I, I can't trust you to just
be the one looking We, all we need
is a ladder, bro Don't call me bro
Where you going now?
Uh, f- to the ladder I
guess He's about to show up
I can tell he's about to show up
because my sphincter gets tight.
I mean, where would a ladder be?
This is exactly where we just were.
We just went in a circle.
It all kinda looks the same.
I'm just g- I'm just getting
to know my parameters
I'll tell you, these hazmat suits didn't do
much to protect us from that guy last time.
He completely chopped
us into multiple pieces.
Also, I didn't really see what he did.
He just kind of got close to you,
then you became a bunch of pieces.
That's not cool.
He eradicated us.
Do we have a weapon of any kind?
We can jump.
All we can do is jump and spin
around looking up or looking down.
There's different, like,
consumables you can find.
I don't think there's weapons.
Oh, it's darker over here.
Okay, which side?
Which side?
Right over here.
Right through here.
Oh, this is not good.
Oh, this is scarier.
I'm glad I'm- Aha
I'm, I'm glad I'm not alone.
Look, let's get in here
Hold on.
I got it.
I, I, I know what to do.
You look down, look down, and
then you turn around like this.
Get a, get a good look at me and see
if I look like I'm about to open it.
Where are you?
Does clicking in on either
of the joysticks do anything?
Sometimes that's like a kneel
You might also not be able to open it.
How about this?
Oh, that's cool.
Do you see me on the wall?
Yeah, you look possessed.
Maybe I can limbo in there
I don't think we need to go there.
Hey, if that guy shows up, there's
no way he'll kill us if we just start
spinning around like that, though.
Yeah, we'll just, we'll scare him.
Why does he have to announce him-
well, why did, why is when he shows
up does it make such a horrific noise?
To, to scare you.
Where you going?
Where are you?
So we can run.
Where are you?
Where are you?
I'm right here.
All right.
Keep going.
I'm right here, dude.
Keep going.
Why?
Straight.
I'm… Do you see anything in here?
No, we're gonna find something, though.
You're really not gonna be able to do much
until you can find, like, the ladder pieces.
We need a ladder piece.
There's a ladder in there.
Well
I see a ladder in here We're a couple
of Latter Day Saints up in here.
Come on, where's the ladder time?
Let's get it.
It is over here in the dark.
Ah!
Okay, I'm going away.
I'm running.
I'm running away.
Oh, I'm, I'm dead.
I'm dead.
I'm running away.
So why are you not running?
Because I'm… He gra- He grabbed me
I mean, I would be running
if I knew how to do it.
Now what am I doing?
I'm doing nothing now.
You're watching me.
Spectate next.
I'm gonna do that.
I'm gonna kill this guy.
Oh, is that- Yeah,
yeah … hey, there you are.
You're not even g- oh, is that me?
You're still moving.
Oh, God, come help me, dude.
That's weird.
Ooh.
Ooh, yeah.
Is that your head?
See if I turn into a ladder.
You're still alive.
Oh God, help me, dude.
That's hard to look at.
That is hard to look at.
There's my buddy.
Look at him.
Boy, that's what's left of him.
Look, he didn't go out w-
d- go down without a fight.
Oh, hey man, I'm still alive.
D- don't tea bag me.
See?
This is the point of,
this is my point of view.
Look at that.
Wow.
Okay.
You're, you're dancing on
my- All right … my innards.
I f- I guess I need to die so that-
Now I'm s- genuinely scared
'cause I'm by myself.
I'm still here in spirit.
I'm keeping an eye on you, see?
Where ever you're not looking
is where I'm looking, see
Should I sacrifice myself to this thing?
No.
No, no You can also just keep looking
around until it finds you Look for a
ladder And try to find- You need to look
for the ladder … try to find the cubby.
And there should also be a locked door
Try to find that door if you can, and
then maybe get killed in the process.
See, I'm helping you look for a
door by looking at alternate angles
So I'm on the perimeter.
I, like, went into that crazy room
with all the blackness, and now I'm
basically just been on the perimeter.
I'm walking the perimeter.
I'm staying to the right as far as I can
because I think this way I'm actually
gonna make some kind of progress.
Yep.
Mm-hmm.
Yep, yep, yep
Yes.
Yes
I think if I stay to the
right, he can't find me.
No, he'll never find you.
Ladder.
I found, yes.
You found, you found part of a ladder.
Yeah.
Oh, I found the o- Oh There's two parts … I
found other parts of the ladder too.
Yes.
What does it say?
How do I pick it up?
Okay.
Well, yeah.
X
I'm pressing X. You're celebrating.
Get up close to it where your
character could actually grab it
Oh, it's square.
What's up with that?
I'm a l- I'm picking up all the ladders.
What's back here?
Is that all the pieces of the ladder?
I don't know
So we gotta look for something in the ceiling
So how can, where's my ladder stuff?
Oh no.
Shouldn't it be in the inventory?
It's in you.
It's in you.
The ladder is in you
I know where to find that ladder if we
had to c- if we had to come back for it
Can you imagine just walking around
in this place all by yourself?
That would be pretty creepy
I mean always- Oh, oh, there he is.
There, look at, look at him.
Look at him.
Look at him.
You see him?
Oh, yep.
There he was.
You saw him before he saw you.
That's good work, but you're in a dead end.
No, you're not.
Have you seen the door at all?
No.
We have not seen a door.
Okay, I'm going back.
He can't scare me.
I like to watch these, like,
abandoned, people going into abandoned
places, and I always thought that
was fun, but, like, maybe it's not.
It's not fun by yourself.
If there's fluorescent lights and
it's, you're deep in the w- world, in
a world, that's not- There is the door.
There's the door.
Oh, snap
No, no, no, no, no.
He got you.
Oh, look at me, I'm doing
the same little dance.
See, I got a good look at what he did to you.
Okay.
So do I- He su- … still
have the, the ladder?
He, he sucked you up and he… I
think you can probably check your
inventory to see if you still have it.
I don't think you do.
But I didn't, it wasn't in
there in the first place.
Do you need the ladder to open the door?
You, I think you need the
ladder to get into the cubby.
All right.
Which is where there's a key
that helps you open the door.
Okay.
I can find it, Link.
Follow me.
So from the, if you find the door first-
I don't think we need to follow each other
… you can put your back to the door and then
turn to your right and go all the way- Okay.
Well, I'm gonna go back to where
I was … till you find water.
'Cause it's the dark spot, and then you go
to the right, and you stay on the outside.
Here it is
Come through this thing
Go all the way through it
Then, oh.
Then you work your way back here
Staying as far to the right as you can be
I don't know where I'm
at, but you're not here.
I'm just- I'm walking around here … I'm
going straight to the ladder, man.
I bet it stinks in here.
Ah!
Hey.
Okay, tr- okay, tr- okay,
turn ar- turn around.
Follow me to the ladder.
I just think we need to split up.
Why do we both need to go to the ladder?
'Cause there's two parts
'Cause we're, 'cause it's teamwork
makes the dream work, man.
Well, I'm gonna find something that you
haven't found, and then the guy's not
gonna get both of us at the same time.
Okay.
But I'm about to get the ladder.
Get it.
Oh, I'm not about to get
anything with the looks of it.
Okay, that didn't work.
The fluorescents are so loud,
they're starting to get to me.
Yeah, I hate it.
I thought the GMM neon sign was loud.
Yeah, this thing is too much.
It's unnerving.
It's supposed to be.
Oh, oh, oh.
Ooh, is that- Look what I found.
What is that?
Blood?
Bye, buddy.
So if you go back and to the
right, you'll find the- Oh.
That's part of the ladder, you know,
you're gonna have the rest of it.
You don't have the rest of the ladder.
Well, oh, oh, there it is.
All right
And you already found two pieces before,
so I think you can put that… Oh, crap.
So what do I do?
Okay, we had to reset.
I don't have the ladder at all, so
I gotta go get… Oh, what's that?
We got lost in the Backrooms of the
Backrooms, which is a menu glitch.
So now you gotta find the ladder again.
There's something about the way that
I found the ladder the last time.
I found a different ladder.
I'm trying to find that spot
where all the, it gets really dark
I mean, is this like tr- is this like
transforming as I walk, or is it…?
Have you noticed that it all looks the same?
It's driving me mad
It is a fixed map.
Like, it's not shifting.
Okay, door.
Found door
And then
So remember what I said?
So if you put your back to the door,
turn 90 degrees right and go straight
until you reach a much longer wall
And then follow the wall until you find
the room with the alcove Much longer wall.
Follow the wall till you reach an alcove.
I don't, I don't think
I've done the right thing.
Where… Are you getting
this in Nintendo Power?
Where are you getting this information from?
Nintendo Power.
I think I'm getting it from Megan Malone.
Okay.
All right.
Okay
This is new
This is new I like what
they've done with the place.
There's a bunch of understated wallpaper
Hey, man.
How you doing?
Amazing, dude.
Okay
Well?
This is fun.
Walking around in an
unfurnished office building.
Can you imagine like, what,
playing this by yourself?
People do that?
I think it helps to have,
like, s- spatial knowledge.
That doesn't translate into video games.
Like, if you were a person who
actually existed in 3D spaces, you
could use that to your advantage.
I don't know where we are
I mean, how do professional Let's Players,
what are they doing at this point?
They're just talking a whole lot more?
I don't know.
Yeah, trying to be entertaining.
Gamers just having their- I just
know… There's the door again
Well, dadgummit, where's the ladder?
Start at the door, turn 90 degrees and go
to the wall, but do something different
than… Okay, so it says, "To get the key,
first find the door and from facing it, turn
90 degrees right and go straight until you
reach a much longer wall." 90 degrees right.
Okay.
Much longer wall.
That's not.
Facing the door?
Yeah, from facing it Well, 90 degrees right.
If I'm facing the door, that's
90 degrees right That is 45?
No, that's 90 No, that's 90 I'll tell you,
we're taking directions from some sus- Go, go
slightly, yeah, go like that way Right there?
Much longer wall.
Then which way do I go?
Uh, it says, "Follow the wall until
you find the room with the alcove."
Doesn't say which direction, but
it ends there, so I'd go, yeah, I
would go down that long stretch.
Link, you better go.
Well, I'm going, right?
Yep.
I tried to get away from it.
Room with an alcove?
But I can't run
That might not be a room with an alcove
as much as just another part of the hall
And then what's gonna be in
the room with the alcove?
Uh, pieces of the ladder.
I certainly found that before
Yeah, but where?
By staying to the right.
That's how I got to the ladder before
Well, it gets real shiny
when you get up close.
Look how shiny you are.
Look at that.
I like doing these Let's Plays 'cause
I feel like your guy in the chair,
but I feel like I'm doing a really
bad job as your guy in the chair.
I know so little about Let's Plays,
I don't know what you're referencing.
There's, I think there's a guy in a chair.
Like a guy in a chair in the back?
Yeah, just like, you know, like if
you're like a spy and there's always
like a guy in a truck who's got
information that's helping you out.
Like I feel like I'm- Oh,
okay … doing a bad job at that.
I understand.
This feels promising
'Cause it feels different
This feels ladder-y.
This feels very ladder-y
I might take a little nap.
Is that okay?
This is the boringest
game I've ever seen, dude.
I tell you, between finding the ladder
and giving up, I choose the ladder
Where is the ladder?
But now we want it, we
want something to happen
We know he can find the ladder 'cause
he found it, but he didn't find it
with ability, he found it with luck.
I thought I d- had a system.
But I do notice that if I d- never
stop moving, the guy doesn't come
He's afraid of you if you keep moving.
He's like, "I don't know what to do
with that guy. He never stops moving."
I don't think he can
catch you if you're moving
It's just every time I see him,
I just stop and stare at him.
Come on, dude
This game sucks
I don't know what you were hoping
for, but you ca- all you can
do is jump and walk around, so
You can't find anything more than once
Now if you had like a can
of spray paint or something.
I have no system.
Now I need a rope
I mean, at least we have this angle.
I need a rope
Even if I knew where a rope was,
I don't know if either of us
would be able to get you to it.
Stop it.
There's a guy.
Let's go up to him.
Sacrifice the goat.
Right at the door.
Yes.
We got a good shot of you being killed
completely, and I'm gonna take that as a win.
I highly recommend this game.
Sometimes- Yeah, if you
just wanna walk around.
