Level 22 is the 23rd Level of the Backrooms.

Description
Level 22 is a desolate and eerie Soviet city, similar to Level 11. Almost all buildings are brown or grey, they are built in the Soviet style. Inside the apartments, rooms are usually decorated in a 1970s to early 90s Soviet style and often have analog TVs. Trying to turn on any of the analog TVs, you will hear static until you may see an entity called "TV Grabbers". These are many of the level exclusive entities, TV Grabbers are black hands with sharp nails covered in a dark oily substance. The rest of their body is unknown, but they will break the screen, grab you and pull you into the TV.

The level is basically endless, and it will make your sanity decrease sometimes, it will get worse the deeper you go. It is always 12:00 PM and all the signs here are in Russian. Only 5% of the level is mapped too.

Other entities to take good consideration of are: Hounds, Skin-Stealers, Wranglers, Hostile Facelings, Smilers, Clumps, Reviooks, and Dullers. Other than the aforementioned TV Grabbers, there are other level exclusive entities as well.


 * Osadoks: From the russian word "Осадок" meaning sludge, Osadoks are strange mud-like beings that sometimes infest several apartments. If you touch these, you will decompose instantly and turn into one of them.
 * Soldiers: Soldiers are black humanoids with strange abnormalities. They have unusually long hands and they're 3 meters tall. They have red eyes and usually wear a WWII Soviet soldier uniform. They are usually hostile, but they can also be, although rare, friendly. They can speak only muffled words, but sometimes basic Russian. If you approach one of them, they will shoot you with their AK-47.
 * The Supreme Leader: It is a presumed entity that rules the entirety of Level 22. He is a clone of Joseph Stalin, former Soviet dictator. If you criticize him, several Zashchitniki will emerge and consume you.
 * Zashchitnik: Yet again from another russian word: Защитник (Protector) These things are of circular shape with deformed limbs. They will knock you out and eventually consume you.
