Escape the Backrooms (ETB)
by DraAda
Escape the Backrooms adds a Forge set of Backrooms-themed monsters, blocks, items and effects for Minecraft 1.20.1.
What it does
Players moving through the Backrooms meet new monsters, including a creature called Bacteria, and face a sanity system that was redesigned in version 0.6. Effects such as death and lack of sanity can be restored with items the mod adds. Map makers can use decoration blocks of several types, along with crafting items, to build their own areas, and the mod can generate new dimensions. Client and server both need the mod, so it has to be installed on each side. Files are published for Forge 1.20.1 only, and the latest is 0.5.5, dated 2025-03-21. The code is not open source; the mod is released under All rights reserved.
