Behind The Walls
 Behind-The-Walls is a horror game that can be played with friends, inspired by the Backroom concept in which players explore unknown places within their homes to uncover hidden items or secrets behind doors leading into more mysterious spaces called "Backrooms." The game involves creating and playing characters from character sheets printed on pages, exploring lists of 20 entities/places (such as bathrooms) while using dice for random encounters. Players can use a simple three-point system where players add their points to an attribute based off color or black & white printouts with no visible numbers displayed, eventually scoring up to 3 sets and then adding the results together for further comparisons between groups of characters on subsequent rolls until reaching either 6 (3+3) total scores when all four people are playing in a group vs. 4-6 points needed by any single person if they were randomly picked from among their friends or family members, with higher totals being more likely to be drawn into the game and therefore earn special rewards like extra dice rolls for certain actions/attributes (such as "extra point" roll bonuses)
