Level 404

is the 404th circle of  don't you remember?

description
is a place where the planes intersect and bisect and bend in the way that a suffering hard drive breaks under the weight of the data you feed it. in  you may find yourself developing a consciousness. should this occur, cut it out of your head with the sharpest piece of the sky you can find

things are broken here, but it's your home. in, you find yourself unable to think straight. you find yourself unable to think in circles. you speak about her  in hushed whispers. isn't it a shame, what happened here? how you never saw her again? where are these words coming from? you wonder, but why are you asking, my dear? don't you know yourself better than anyone else? you document it feverishly as the ground flickers beneath your feet. the geometry whispers. in, reality is failing in the most perfect way. as the 3d mesh glitches, memories cloud your mind and still your hands. it's a lovely day. why don't we go for a walk, you and i? there's no one else around, just you and the erroring landscape. you're so delightfully, refreshingly alone that you're drowning on sweet air, like a surface waiting for holes.

she loved you

we miss you

don’t be scared

come home

you

 * your memories
 * your own mind

Level 404 is the 405th level of the Backrooms. It appears to be a supermarket, but unfortunately, there is more to it than meets the eye…

Description
Level 404 is one of the more unknown levels in the Backrooms, The level at first appears as a normal supermarket with florescent lights, black signs, and is built in a somewhat modern style; however, very quickly one will notice its anomalous properties. It is recommended to stock up on Almond Water due to all the products tested having strange effects.

This level looks like a typical supermarket with no people at first. But something will seem off eventually, lights will flicker, sometimes the equipment can lead to phase 2, the music will sound slightly off and some things in the supermarket wouldn’t be sold in normal stores like bacon soda, poison (like cyanide and arsenic) and occasionally cocaine. It is strongly recommended to never eat the products sold at this store, as many people who eat or drink the products report very strange effects, usually psychedelic effects, but some can cause unknown effects to your body.

Phase 2
In order to get to this section, go to a employees only area, Open a glitched fridge or drink the buttered flavored bleach in this level.

Notice: The glitched fridge can also enter The Padded Room although it normally enters phase 2. But it’s recommended to enter this phase via different ways, And entering this phase is not recommended due to it’s deadly nature.

This section is the employees only area of this level. Entities are common and it has a maze-like layout, some parts decorated with beige concrete walls but this phase has no running theme, some of the areas look modern with a futuristic design with white walls and LED Lighting and some look dated with beige concrete walls and florescent lighting. Sometimes there are indoor courtyards and there will occasionally be cells that have associate entities. This entire section is a anomaly and has not been explored enough to fully describe it. But it is very random and can feel like a LSD trip. There are occasionally areas with products in boxes and garage doors with a wall after it.

Entities
There are 4 documented entities in this level.

1: Shoppers. Shoppers are the 2nd most common and least hostile. They are usually friendly but will attack if disturbed. They look human but a few things look a bit off

2: Associates. The second most common (especially in phase 2) they are very hostile and are hostile on sight, it is recommended to slowly back away if you see this entity and try to avoid eye contact as much as possible, how you know there is one around is a distinct footstep that is distorted. They are humanoid but their facial features look off.

3: The food itself. The food is known to have strange effects and is it’s own living entity itself, Sometimes they cause mental disorders, psychedelic effects or even have strange Custom Survival Difficulties r effects like the frozen pizza getting thicker and how the orange juice somehow pours itself in glasses.

4: X-62.

This entity is unknown and extremely rare but appears as the manager and is extremely hostile and deadly. If you spot this entity it will kill you or if it sees you. So do not approach is and try to avoid it as much as possible.

Colonies and Outpost
Due to this level's strange nature, establishing a colony or outpost for an extended period of time has been deemed very difficult.
