Level 368 is the 369th level of the Backrooms
Contents
Description
The 6th layer to the 12 layered facility.
Level 368 is a massive facility that spirals out in a series of seemingly endless underground halls containing advanced hi-tech industrial machinery that produce enough ambient noise to cause hearing damage after prolonged exposures. The halls are dotted with obsolete windows that reveal nothing but dirt, becoming sparser the farther one gets from the radial center.
The radial center contains a 2 elevator system that allows for passage between the 10 floors the facility possesses. Each floor is demarcated with a different colors rather than numbers, with Black denoting the "ground" level, and in a descending order; brown, red, orange, yellow, lime, green, blue, cyan, white, denoting the other levels that lay beneath the ground level of the Facility.
Investigation Logs
Expedition B.XThe following is a written statement from Researcher Zanzar detailing exploration of the "Ground" Level of Level 368. After being ordered to conduct an exploration of Level 368 by the Council we found ourselves in a rather odd place. The facility was massive, it had these massive halls that just stretched endlessly and just piles and piles of machinery. Occasionally we would find windows revealing a wall of dirt encompassing the facility, the underground facility. The halls would on occasion connect through smaller corridors and revealed the main halls to be converging inwards, towards the radial center. As we got closer to the center, the aforementioned obsolete windows became more and more present until entire walls were made from glass, remarkable that it hadn't caved in yet. A massive white dome-shaped building lay in the radial center and stretched all the way to the ceiling. As we proceeded through the front door we entered into a bland interior lobby, consisting of only an old decrepit service elevator & small front desk, devoid of any life and minimal decor in site. The elevator contained of 12 colored buttons, each one supposedly to a different floor. Upon discovery of the elevator, we radioed the Operators for instructions on whether to proceed, instructions were received to withdraw and terminate Expedition B.X, our job thus far, was complete.
Investigation Z-θDrone approaches main office building and enters through front door. A moment is spent observing the writing on the walls in the interior lobby before moving across to the service elevator. Drone enters elevator and turns to floor selection. There are selections for 11 floors below the ground level. Drone moves to select B10 level. Elevator begins to descend. After seven floors, elevator suddenly stops. After a few moments of time, it is determined this is due to an intermittent power failure. Drone uses suitable utility to open the forward facing elevator door. The open elevator shaft is visible, and the drone is unable to determine the depth of the shaft. Using its winch, the drone descends below the stopped elevator to the first available floor. After prying open the door, the drone swings into the opening and retracts the winch. A sign on the wall just inside the doorway indicates that this is the 8th basement level, and that it is a Euclid-class containment wing. Lights on this floor remain dark. The drone is instructed to move down the main hallway and look for a suitable area to descend to the next floor. Drone moves towards a side hallway and is instructed to explore down it. It is noted that a number of messages are written on the walls, including "don't look at the walls" and "kill the quiet ones". After inspecting a number of rooms and finding them to only be empty offices, the drone returns to the main hallway. Drone ceases movement upon seeing a large, vaguely humanoid entity standing near the end of the hallway. This entity appears to glide slowly down the hallways, seemingly not noticing the drone. After it passes, the drone is instructed to follow the entity. Entity enters a maintenance closet near the end of the initial hallway. Drone observes as entity extends a long arm from beneath its outer layer and touches the floor. Entity then begins to make slow movements towards the drone behind it. The entity ceases movement, and then slowly turns to leave the room. The drone is instructed to move towards the wall and take note of any changes. It is noted that the entity left behind a number of unique symbols. The drone takes several flash photographs of these symbols and transmits them back to site command. Drone is then instructed to continue to follow the large entity; however, the entity has hidden itself then proceeds to attack the drone. The drone has never been recovered. |

Entrances
- Upon obtaining a pen or pen-like object in Levels 1-12, one may find themselves in Level 368.
Exits
Upon transcribing "Exit" on any surface, explorers may find themselves in a new level depending on what floor they wrote "Exit" on.
