Description

Level 188 is an enclosed complex, with architecture resembling that of a hotel. A large courtyard-like area is present in the center of the level, surrounded on all sides by numerous tiny square-like windows on each wall. Most windows in Level 188 are obscured by curtains; however, certain windows may become visible on occasion, each seemingly looking into a different location entirely. For the sake of ease, these visible windows will hereafter be referred to as “open”, and the obscured windows as “closed”.

One can enter the interior corridors of Level 188 via a stairwell present near one end of the courtyard. These hallways, each interconnected to reach all 5 floors, loop around the level and lead to the interior rooms behind each window; these rooms can be entered via unmarked doors present on each hallway. Most of these doors can be entered, leading to a typical, albeit small, hotel-like interior. However, an anomalous effect becomes apparent once one attempts to enter a room with an “open” window. When a window is “open” and displaying a separate location behind it, the door leading to it will be locked by unknown means. In all known cases, any attempts to forcefully open these locked doors have failed. Currently, there is no known method of entering rooms with “open” windows. Conversely, it is unknown as to what occurs when opening the curtains in a room with a “closed” window; all who have attempted this have instantly disappeared, whilst the corresponding window simultaneously changes to display a new location behind it.

Colonies and Outposts

Quasi Cult: The Quasi Cult is a colony that is constantly on the move, they travel around different levels but mainly reside in Level 188. It is advised not to approach them since some travellers have said that they're extremely hostile. It is said that if you show an uncanny love to a mysterious thing called "Quasimodo" they will want you to join them.

Entities

So far, two entities have been reported in Level 188: The Windows and the "Krix", it's allegedly one of the most dangerous entities in the first cluster of the Backrooms. Krix appears as an obese child walking around in Level 188, the entity is hostile when you know it's there, and when you're thinking about it in a 500 meter proximity from them. Krix is speculated to bring the victim to a weird level called the "Krix Dimension", Nobody knows what's inside the Krix Dimension since nobody has ever come back alive from it.

The Windows

In rare instances, certain windows in Level 188 may be seamlessly replaced by a Window entity. It has been reported that shadow-like figures have been spotted behind these windows, motioning for one to enter the room. Rooms correlating to these fake windows should be avoided at all costs.

Peripherals

The Peripherals are a level-exclusive entity that may appear both in the interior hallways and in the central courtyard. While they are notable throughout the level, these entities do not seem to have a direct physical form. As the name suggests, they only appear in the mid and far peripheral views of a Wanderer. The entity typically materializes either as one being, or as multiple.

Entrances and Exits

Entrances

  • Rarely, a window may appear instead of a door in The Hub, which one can enter to access Level 188.
  • A window may similarly appear in Level 0, which will also lead to this level.
  • No-clipping in Elevator 9 on the glass walls on Level Absolute Infinity of Unknown will lead you to this level by making you fall and the wind push you towards the glass to this level.
  • Find a window in Level Maker to fall down here.

Exits

The only known way of exiting Level 188 is via the windows present on the walls; one can exit either by returning to the window they originally entered the level through, or by accessing one of the other "open" windows, which can lead to many unknown locations (this is advised against due to the uncertainty of the destination).
