Description
First known image of the level.
Level 1980 appears to be a town of American origin, of indeterminate size located on what appears to be some plains, this town consists of several houses, skyscrapers and factories, although no skyscrapers have been seen on this level.
All the inhabitants of this level seem to be aware that they still live in the United States of America, although they are not in normal reality, they are not aware that they are in the backrooms, it may be that the inhabitants of the level have been from a town that disappeared out of nowhere and appeared in the backrooms some time later.
The architecture of the level appears to be from the 90s or 2000s, as houses of that type can be seen everywhere.
Entities
