The Complex: Expedition casts you as an expedition member exploring unexplored areas of The Complex. A structured mission with your team rapidly becomes isolation and uncertainty when things go wrong.
Stranded and disoriented, you must search an unending network of poorly lit hallways for answers and a way out. Every turn holds uncertainty, and every choice affects survival. Without landmarks, orienting is nearly hard, strengthening the feeling of being lost in an unforgiving place.
The Complex: Expedition uses the Backrooms' ominous mood but frames it differently. VHS lens grain and distortion increase strain. Slowly developing discomfort rather than quick action lets you absorb every sound and shadow. Methodical research is encouraged, with tiny contextual changes keeping you uncertain. Every move is cautious because you always feel watched or followed.
Players that prefer psychological horror over direct confrontation will like the atmosphere, tension, and gradual reveal of its mysteries. Every step into the unknown requires time and nerve, and only the most attentive will discover all The Complex: Expedition.
