Sounds. How to escape: In the game, you need to find a special device—a lidar (scanner)—in the starting room. It emits glowing beams and highlights dots on the walls, displaying a map of the corridors on the screen. Use it to find the passage from which the only source of light emanates (the door to Level 7). According to the text lore, you need to go very deep into the labyrinth until you trip over a wire, which will cause you to fall to Level 7.
LEVEL 8: Cave System Hazard Class: Class 5 (Deadly, Unstable, Massive Number of Entities) Appearance: An endless, cold, and dank network of deep underground caverns and stone grottoes. Sharp stalactites hang everywhere, and the floor is littered with rock debris. Almost complete darkness reigns here. Entities: Female Deathmoths: Enormous flying monsters. They sit in flocks on the ceilings. Incredibly aggressive, instantly attacking any loud sound or running. Skin-Stealers: (Described previously, monsters in human skin) - wander the final section of the caves with flashlights, tracking victims. Terrain and Corridors: Winding narrow stone passages and huge chasms. The level is divided into three zones by gas locks. In the middle of the level, there's an old, rickety wooden bridge over the abyss that collapses if you run across it. How to exit: You need to move strictly in crouch and silently slip past the moths to the floodgates. Then, slowly cross the bridge one at a time. In the final area, you need to stealthily bypass the Skin Thief, find the decontamination airlock, turn the valve, and climb the vertical iron ladder into the hatch. This will take you to the altered level.

5. LEVEL 5: "Terror Hotel" Danger Class: Class 2 (Unsafe, stable, low number of entities) Appearance: A luxurious, huge hotel in the Art Deco style of the 1930s. Patterned carpets, massive crystal chandeliers, wooden walls and vintage furniture are everywhere. Old jazz plays softly in the background. Entities: Deathmoths: Enormous flying insects. Females (live here) are deadly and aggressive. Males are small and harmless (they are used to extract medicinal Moth Jelly). Skin-Stealers: (Described earlier, monsters in human skin) - occasionally wander the dark corridors. Terrain and corridors: Divided into two main areas. The first is the clean corridors of the hotel with endless doors to rooms (most are locked). The second is the underground "Boiler Room," which is extremely dark, stuffy, and hot, with pipes running with boiling steam. The level puts pressure on the player's psyche, causing paranoia. How to escape: Search the rooms, find scattered letters, and place them in the mailboxes in the main lobby. This activates the combination lock on the door. Beyond the door, descend to the Boiler Room, go through it, and board the maintenance elevator, which will take you to Level 6. LEVEL 6: "Dark Side" (Lights Out) Hazard Class: Canonically Class 1 / In-game Class 4 (Unsafe, darkness blocks light, high disorientation). Appearance: An endless, chaotic labyrinth of metal walls, brick floors, and complex pipe systems. The most important detail is that the level is immersed in absolute, pitch-black darkness. Entities: Phantom Stalker: In the game adaptation, a unique monster roams the darkness, attacking if the player makes too much noise or stands still. According to the canon wiki lore, there are no entities here, but the darkness itself drives people mad, causing terrifying hallucinations. Terrain and Corridors: Narrow, cold metal corridors. Regular flashlights, torches, or phone flashlights dim abnormally and don't work at all. A person loses 100% of their vision and can only navigate by touch or sound.

LEVEL 4: "Abandoned Office" Hazard Class: Class 0 (Safe, stable, completely absent of entities). Appearance: Endless, empty rooms of a modern office building. The floor is covered with clean green carpet, the walls are painted gray, and a soft, pleasant light from fluorescent lamps pours from the ceiling. Entities: None: This is one of the rare levels with absolutely no monsters. Complete security. Terrain and Corridors: Huge open-plan halls, divided by office partitions. Empty desks, chairs, computers, and water coolers are everywhere. Daylight streams in from the windows (which are actually fake). There are plenty of useful supplies (almond water, food) here, and bases have been built for survivors. How to leave: You need to navigate through the labyrinth of office partitions, find a working elevator car, go inside, and press the button on the panel. The elevator will take you to the Level

2: "Pipe Dreams" Hazard Class: Class 2 (Unsafe, Stable, Low Entity Population) Appearance: Millions of kilometers of narrow, stuffy, gray concrete tunnels, the walls of which are completely covered with massive pipes. Entities: Hounds: Feral four-legged creatures with long human hair and sharp teeth, afraid of direct eye contact. Clumps: Vile clusters of writhing human limbs (arms and legs) hiding in the darkness of the tunnels. Terrain and Hallways: Very tight, straight, and long corridors. Deadly hot steam or black liquid constantly leaks out of the pipes with a loud noise. Because of the pipes, the temperature here is extremely high and stuffy. How to leave: You must progress through the tunnels, turn the valves on the walls to shut off the hot steam that is blocking your progress, and find the metal door at the end of the labyrinth. It leads to Level 3. LEVEL 3: "Electrical Station" Hazard Class: Class 4 (High hazard, unstable, many entities) Appearance: A gloomy industrial complex with brick walls, grated floors, and a huge number of hanging wires, transformers, and noisy machines. Entities: Hounds: (Described above, hairy dogs) - there is a whole lair of them here, they are very aggressive. Skin Stealers and Smileys: Constantly wander in unlit areas. Terrain and Corridors: Confusing technical rooms, divided into three substations. The floors are often covered in puddles of electricity (step on them and you will be electrocuted). The deafening hum of generators is everywhere, obscuring enemy footsteps. The lights flicker constantly. How to escape: Search all areas, find and activate nine electrical panels/generators to power the main gate. When the gate opens, run to it and enter the elevator. This will take you to Level 4.

LEVEL 0: "The Lobby" Hazard Class: Class 1 (Safe, stable, minimal number of entities) Appearance: Endless empty rooms with monotonous yellow wallpaper, old damp carpeting, and ceiling fluorescent lights that hum loudly and annoyingly. Entities: The Bacteria (Stick Insect): A tall, emaciated black creature made of tangled wires and bones, emitting eerie metallic screams and clicking sounds. Terrain and Corridors: A completely non-linear labyrinth of identical rooms. The space is capable of abnormally changing (the corridor you just walked along may disappear if you turn around). How to exit: You need to find an area where the walls or floor seem "wrong" (glitchy) and intentionally walk through the wall (perform a "Noclip"). This will take you to Level 1. LEVEL 1: "Habitable Zone" (Lurking Stones) Hazard Class: Class 1 (Safe, stable, low number of entities) Appearance: An endless, dirty warehouse or underground parking lot made of gray concrete. Fog, pipes on the walls, and pools of liquid mud are everywhere. Entities (appear only when the lights go out): Skin-Stealers: Humanoids that rip the skin off their victims and disguise themselves as humans, but cannot speak. Smilers: Creatures that reveal only glowing white eyes and a toothy grin in the dark. Terrain and Corridors: Wide concrete corridors and forks, lined with boxes. There are lamps hanging on the walls that periodically go out completely for a random amount of time. It's safe here as long as the lights are on. How to leave: In the game, you need to find gas cans, refuel the generator, and open the large garage-type doors. According to the lore, simply follow the corridor straight ahead until you reach a dead end and find the door. This takes you to Level 2 or the Hub. LEVEL
