Description

Level ε's location resembles a destroyed town. Entering Level ε will make visitors colorblind. This effect persists even after leaving Level ε. It should be known that some levels will not permit access to Level ε, so before entering a Level make sure that escaping through Level ε is always a possibility.

Once inside, a path will be cleared out of nowhere. Cries coming from inside the destroyed structures will always be present and going off course from the path will trap the visitor(s) in debris. Traversing along the path will always lead the visitor to a church after five (5) minutes. The furniture inside the church consists of:

  • Chairs lined up in 3 rows on 2 sides. It is important that you do not sit on the chairs.
  • A podium that the chairs look at
  • Windows.
  • A door that is assumed to lead to other rooms

At the podium is a docile Smiler. It is important not to anger the Smiler, or you will be rendered paralyzed, and disappear. It is unknown what happens to those who anger the Smiler.

Such examples of angering the Smiler is:

  • Using Smiler Exterminator on the Smiler
  • Using debris from the path and throwing it at the Smiler
  • Attempting to assault the Smiler
  • Sitting on the chairs; (Reserved for the Smiler's "Priests".)
  • Lying to the Smiler
  • Using photography inside the church
  • Approaching the door that are behind the podium

After 10 seconds, the Smiler will welcome you and question on why you are here. If lied to, you will be paralyzed. If told the truth, then the Smiler will be pleased and give you a weapon. If you do not use the weapon in 2 minutes on yourself, you will be paralyzed. The weapon given to you can consist of anything that can kill a person. If you are killed, you will be transported to Level 0, colorblind. If not, you will be transported to whatever level you were on, with the injuries you inflicted yourself with, also colorblind. If you have not inflicted any injuries to yourself, then you will be given the same punishment that would be given to you if you lied to the smiler.

Exploration Log

Interview with M.E.G Recruit Jasper, after the team he was sent with to find and explore new levels were intercepted.

We were told to end ourselves after being captured by Jerry. It was better this way. I didn't want to be here any longer. I don't want to be an insanity. So, we did it. We didn't expect to go to the afterlife. We were probably going to wake up back in the Backrooms again, and we were right, but not in the place we thought we would be. It was this weird, white-monotone place. Debris everywhere and destroyed structures. There were four of us. We were trying to get in contact with the MEG operative on our radio. We told him what was going on and what we should do, but all we heard was static. Then Jared stepped onto the debris and it engulfed him. We stood there, frozen in place for a few hours. Michael worked up to courage to go onto the path, making sure to step around the debris. We followed him, and I accidentally stepped on the debris on the path, but I wasn't devoured. Thank fuck for that. Anyways, we were walking for a few minutes, when we stumble across a church. I didn't want to get eaten, so I told Michael to go, but he was having second thoughts. We were arguing for a few minutes before Michael just went inside, all frustrated and calling us pussies. We follow after him, and we end up inside the church. There's a smiler at the podium, and Michael uses the Smiler Exterminator on him, but then his neck twists and he falls. He's still breathing. Fuck. Shit. And then he disappears. There's only 2 of us now.

But then the Smiler talks. I didn't know they could do that. It questions us on why we were here. So I tell it why, and he hands me a handgun and my friend loads of pills. "USE THEM." So, we did. And now we're back at Level 0, you're interviewing me, 2 people are dead, and now this place has that weird white-monotone color.
