A demo for The Backworld, a turn-based RPG with narrative-driven horror elements, is now available for PC via Steam, publisher Top Hat Studios and developer Numor Games announced.
Here is an overview of the game, via Top Hat Studios:
A surreal, story-rich, horror RPG, The Backworld plunges players into a cosmic adventure where reality is crumbling. As you slip between dimensions, you’ll explore over 100 diverse areas ranging from terrifying, liminal spaces to traditional JRPG-inspired fantasy worlds to horrors beyond your wildest imagination. Survival requires strategic decision-making; whether that means engaging in combat, sneaking past threats, or utilizing environmental hazards is up to you. Along the way, keep an eye on your sanity; your experiences with increasingly surreal horrors will affect your sanity and dynamically alter gameplay, causing characters to lose control or the player to experience hallucinations such as fake NPCs and user interface glitches.
The Backworld is due out for PC via Steam in 2026.
