A picture of Level 87, taken on a small boat.
Level 87 is the 88th level of the Backrooms. It is an infinite lake with a small shore. It was discovered on 18/9/2018.
Description
Level 87 is an infinite lake with a small shore that contains empty small corner-shops, small roads, souvenir booths and lakeside homes, which are all mostly devoid of human life. The corner-shops have little resources, usually having 1-3 items left. There are also docks, which sometimes contain boats, which can be helpful for fully exploring this level. This level has no day-night cycle, being stuck in infinite sunset. This level also has no sun or any similar star, but always has a sunset lighting throughout the whole level. Most of the buildings in this level are weirdly damp for an unknown reason.
Most of this level is comprised of water, sometimes containing islands which usually contain no more than a tree or a bush. While sailing across the water, one may come across a shipwreck that is visible through the water. Reaching this shipwreck is impossible without proper diving gear, as proven by previous attempts by deserted wanderers. Attempting to explore the water without a boat past a mile will make you drown. An oddity that can be found in this level is several househould furniture, or entire houses being found floating in the water. All of these objects work despite the fact that some of them normally don't work if they touch water.
The furniture inside of a floating house in the water is always glued to the floor, being unable to fall. Attempts to rip these objects from the "glue" has been deemed unsuccessful, which makes people speculate that this seal is unbreakable.
Entities
Dullers can be found in abandoned buildings on the shore, Smilers can be found in dark buildings on the shore. Hounds can be found outside, along with a strange piranha-humanoid creature that can be found underwater, which is quite uncommon when exploring the water. The behavior of this hybrid is hostile, they will try to bite you and make your boat sink, however you can distract them by splashing Almond Water somewhere else.
Phenomena
This level also has a lot of unexplainable objects and behavior, most of which are described below.| Title | Verdict | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Skyscrapers | Partially True | Small skyscrapers can rarely be found on the shore, but are never present underwater. |
| Contaminated Water | True | The lakewater is contaminated, and should not be consumed at all costs. The water contains both documented and undocumented bacteria. |
| "Poseidon" | Not Enough Information (Possibly False) | One wanderer reported seeing an abnormally sized black humanoid creature underwater with a presumably lapis crown covered with seaweed. There is little evidence of this entity being encountered by people, and is possibly just a hallucination. |
| Floating Radios | True | Floating radios can appear floating on the water, as confirmed by several wanderers. These radios are usually covered with wet sand, and always play a slightly altered version of the song On/Off by Daft Punk, no matter the radio station. |
| Infinite Depth | Not Enough Information | It is assumed that the lake has infinite depth past 10 miles. This is obviously unconfirmed, since no one has tried to prove this phenomenon. |
| Possessed Boats | False | One person reported seeing a small wooden boat moving on the water, with no one controlling it. This has been debunked due to the wave currents that occur in this level, and the boat might've been left by a lost wanderer. |
Bases, Outposts and Communities
The Sailors:
- Estimated population of 4-8 people
- Their base is situated on a small island closest to where most wanderers enter this level, having their base structure built out of deserted wood in the shape of a pirate-like boat
- Has quite primitive measures of living, having campfires instead of stoves. Their only modern item is a small lamp they have outside that they presumably found floating on the water.
- Unknown behavior since they have interacted with possibly nobody outside of their community Open for trading and friendly
Please, don't attempt to make a visit to this outpost. AT ALL COSTS. I tried to find them to get some help but they just threw their wooden spears against me. Fuck. Them. I'm still bleeding from my neck from those bastards, and i haven't even found any medical help yet.
Entrances And Exit
Entrances
Finding a small souvenir shop in Level 47 will lead you here. Another way to enter this level is to crawl out of the cave in Level 27.
Exits
After walking deep into the land near the lake for approximately 55 miles, the sunset sky will fade into night and you will end up in Level 9. A different way to exit is to no-clip in a wall in any of the buildings on the shore. This will take you to Level 88.
