Description:

Level 611 is a suburban house that has been said, or estimated to be, the size of The Province of Ontario, Canada. Outside the windows are heaps of snow on the ground, going to about 17cm high. The level has been deemed safe for a while under M.E.G circumstances, until as of recently, due to the discovery of multiple entities upon turning around. This effect is the most confusing, and otherworldly to occur within The Backrooms, with only being understood by a select few members of the colony that used to call this level home. Depending on what direction you are facing, the lighting and atmosphere of the level will change drastically. The level is sensitive to eye or body movement. At one point, Level 611 was getting overpopulated. Because of the following event that occurred, Level 611 became self-aware, developing it's ability to control light depending on where wanderers are facing. This effect has been deemed as the "Light Bend" phenomenon.

Light Mode:

A photo of the 'safe' portion of the level.

As by the photograph, anybody who is facing north of the level will be free of any real 'dangers'. The brightness poses a serious threat to wanderer sanity, with the initial side effects of insomnia. There have been a handful of reports from wanderers stating that they are unable to blink or even close their eyes in very specific situations. There a plethora of items such as Almond Water, Neon Water, and other useful supplies. They will disappear when facing south.
The items that you pick up will become yours, even when you turn around. When they disappear, the items will still be in your hands. While facing north, certain functions of the brain will cease control. Their ability to feel fear will be absent, as well as their ability to respond to stimuli, specifically pain stimuli, and brightness stimuli. Another weird effect while facing north is trying to go to sleep. Whoever attempts to go to sleep on any bed within the level will start lucid dreaming while their eyes are open. These dreams were reported to contain loved ones from the real world abandoning their children at birth. This effect puts wanderers under mental trauma. As a side note, these wanderers will become aggressive and cannibalistic. The levels temperature will be at a stable 18 degrees Celsius.

Dark Mode:

While facing south, the level will turn almost pitch black. There are some light sources hidden in very hard to reach areas that faintly illuminate the level with an orange tint. From the outside, the snowy neighborhood gets replaced with an eerie void of various objects like cars, other households, brick, pens, paper, trees, and laptops all floating in place. Entities will spawn at an abnormal rate, with the most abundant being Smilers, The Smiling Slaughters, The Shadows of The Past, Hounds, Televisions, and Sugar Feasters. Most items will dematerialize upon facing south, however, stuff like food will immediately decompose, growing mold, algae, and various fungi. While facing south, you will feel extreme fear, pain, and develop schizophrenia if unlucky.

The entities are highly aggressive and have been reported to attack themselves at times. Sleep is possible here, however, it is advised not to attempt it as constant nightmares will haunt you for life. Many people have reported hallucinations. These hallucinations take the form of childhood memories.
