Backrooms games have quickly become a staple of the horror genre. If you check on Steam, there are hundreds to choose from, which, despite looking similar thanks to their setting, can be different in a couple of minor ways.

However, there are at least two Backrooms games that are pretty much identical Steelkrill's game, The Backrooms 1998, was released last week and has had a pretty good reception with a 'Very Positive' review rating on Steam.

The game takes a more narrative approach to the Backrooms as it follows a young teen who has fallen into the liminal space. It also uses a camcorder to add a lost-footage vibe to the already creepy atmosphere.

After the successful initial launch on Steam, the solo dev Steelkrill decided that now was a great time to branch out to other consoles.

Everything was going according to plan until one player contacted Steelkrill to ask why their game was already on consoles but under a different name.
