| BackDoor (Video Game) | comment |
The nice thing about dreaming is that you can just keep falling without worrying about hitting the ground. Unfortunately this is not a dream.BackDoor is an episodic Adventure Game about a monochromatic boy who crash lands in a bedroom that is not his own. That bedroom happens to be in a house that is located on the moon, meaning he needs to find a way other than the front door to escape. And there's no one else inside the house, except for a mysterious entity that can communicate through telephones.From the talking phone, the boy learns about the back doors in reality which lead to a sort of world between other worlds, but the phone's assistance doesn't come for free.Three episodes have been released, called Door 1, Door 2, and Door 3. | |

| BackDoor (Video Game) / int_1086f287 | comment |
Sure, Let's Go with That: Clove follows the player to a world of anthropomorphic birds, and concludes that it's the surface, but wonders why all the humans are wearing bird costumes. The phone invents a festival to explain it so that he doesn't have to tell her about different worlds. | |

Chekhov's Boomerang | |
| BackDoor (Video Game) / int_21f3e32e | comment |
Chekhov's Boomerang: Door 3 introduces you to the Skeleton Key, which connects locked doors with keyholes to other nearby locked doors. This becomes a focal puzzle mechanic and when trying to get to the engine room in the endgame, Clove remembers how the key works and locks herself in a room so you can use her locked door with the nearby one to bypass an NPC Roadblock. | |

Easter Egg | |
| BackDoor (Video Game) / int_29a39f6 | comment |
Easter Egg: An easter egg can be found in all episodes. Using the easter egg at the right location unlocks the Developer Room. Door 1: After entering the first room of the Backdoors from the basement, head up an invisible path to an island with the game's developer in bed. Talk to him, and he'll give you an Easter Egg. Go back to the house and use the Egg on the fridge, which has a note saying "GET EGGS". Door 2: Give a bucket of water to the disguised human in the bar. He'll explain who he is and give you an Easter Egg. Take the Egg to the park and use it on the chicken statue. Door 3: After the train docks at the station, go back onto it and wake up the sleeping passenger, who gives you an Easter Egg. Go back to the first station and attempt to give the egg to the hungry bird, who instead leaves in disgust. | |

Runaway Train | |
| BackDoor (Video Game) / int_3b20d7f4 | comment |
Runaway Train: While showing off how he can manipulate the ROOT computer of the avian world, the phone accidentally gets it wet, causing a rift to open up and send the train to the backdoors, which is especially dangerous considering it's running around the backstage of reality and could cause serious damage. The player has to activate a tracking device in the engine room so the phone can pinpoint it and send it to its destination. | |
