Escape the Backrooms Level Fun+: All Color Codes & Claw Machine FPS Hack!

An Experienced Wanderer's Blueprint to Level Fun+

If you have made it to Level Fun+ (often called Levian's House or Levon Plus) in Escape the Backrooms, you know the standard childhood-themed horror has been dialed up significantly. The layout here drops you into a central hub with four distinct doors. Behind each door sits a unique puzzle room protecting exactly one key. Your main goal is simple but nerve-wracking: survive all four trials, grab the keys, and bring them back to the central claw-style vending machine to unlock the exit.

Hard and Nightmare Mode Warning: If you are playing on easier difficulties, you can grab a key and instantly hit "Restart" in your menu to teleport right back to the hub. However, as an active player who runs high-difficulty settings, I must warn you that this menu-warp trick is entirely disabled on Hard and Nightmare. If you are pushing for those achievements, you have to physically run back through the doors every time.

Trial 1: The VCR Tape and The 5-Color Memory Sequence

When you enter the first door on the right, you will find yourself in a cluster of three small rooms. This is a game of observation and memory. Your first task is to scour the area for a single VHS videotape. It can spawn randomly on tables, desks, or high shelves, but you only need to secure one.

Once you grab the tape, head over to the TV monitor and slide it in. The screen will turn on and prompt you to interact with the colored buttons on the wall panel. While the initial prompt might seem unpredictable, the underlying color stacking pattern is entirely static. To beat this without breaking a sweat, memorise and stack the inputs in this exact order across the rounds:

Green → Yellow → Blue → Red → Pink

Keep entering this exact sequence as the rounds add more steps. Once you complete the fifth round, a hidden compartment pops open, giving you your first key.

Trial 2: Balloon Popping and Table Stealth Tactics

The Sky Blue door opens up a room where your stealth skills are heavily tested by a patrolling Partygoer. The objective here is to pop balloons to locate the second key, but you have to be incredibly careful with your positioning.

• Breaking Line of Sight: The moment you hear the heavy footsteps of a Partygoer or know you have been spotted, immediately crouch and slide completely underneath the nearest long table. The room is dark enough that the tables function as absolute stealth zones; the entity's AI will lose track of you instantly as long as you stay tucked underneath.
• Efficient Balloon Tracking: Do not just run around popping everything in sight. The key is hard-coded to appear in a few specific clusters, mostly deeper in the back rooms. You can actually crawl under the tables and safely pop the balloons within your reaching distance as you advance.
• The Entrance Bait: When you first walk in, you might notice a floating balloon right at the entrance door that drops a key when popped. Do not fall for it. This specific key is a dummy item tied strictly to that spot and won't count toward your central hub machine. Ignore it and focus entirely on clearing the inner rooms.

Trial 3: The Pitch-Black Darkroom and Glow Stick Targets

The Red door leads into a trial that plunges you into near-total darkness. For this room, you have to rely entirely on colored neon glow sticks to light up hidden drawings on the walls.

Before heading up the stairs to the main puzzle floor, look around the ground level and gather your supplies. Grab at least one glow stick for each of the four main colors: Blue, Red, Green, and Yellow. When you move upstairs, keep your ears open. A slow-moving Partygoer patrols the dark hallways. Fortunately, his vision is just as bad as yours in the dark, so give him a wide berth and you will be completely safe.

To unlock the key pedestal, you must equip and throw your glow sticks using Left-Click directly at the correct environmental wall icons:

• Red Glow Stick: Aim and hurl this at the Gift Box drawing on your immediate left as you enter the main room.
• Green Glow Stick: Toss this at the Balloon sketch found on the wall to the immediate right of the entrance.
• Yellow Glow Stick: Look further into the room and throw this directly at the Eye icon.
• Blue Glow Stick: Find the final matching shape pattern on the remaining wall section and light it up.

If you are unsure if your throw landed correctly, check the ceiling structure. There is a row of indicator bulbs overhead that light up individually for every correct match. If the central cage is still locked, look up, spot which bulb is dark, and you will immediately know which color you missed. Grab your third key and head out.

Trial 4: Clearing the Party Hosts and Managing Aggro Spikes

The Dark Blue door houses the most chaotic challenge of the level. Here, you are given explosive charges to destroy the stationary, mutated entities hanging from the ceiling, known as Party Hosts.

When throwing these explosives with Left-Click, you must prioritize your own safety. The blast features incredibly punishing friendly fire. If you stand anywhere near the explosion, it will take you out alongside the monster. Throw your charge and instantly dive for cover.

Every single time you successfully blow up a Party Host or hit a stage objective, a regular Partygoer will crawl out of the floor hatches to hunt you down. In solo play, this spawn isn't random at all; the entity is programmed to emerge from the specific hatch closest to your current location. When you see him give up the hunt and climb back down, stay under your table for an extra second or two. The AI frequently loops its animation and will look back out or step out of the hatch for an extra half-second trick window. Once all the ceiling hosts are clear, the hunts stop entirely, letting you safely pick up the fourth key.

The Ultimate Speedrun Trick: The Vending Machine Framerate Hack

Once you return to the main hub with all 4 keys in hand, you have to insert them into the vending machine. Normally, the game forces you through a painfully slow, tedious animation for each individual key. If you want to bypass this entirely and complete your escape instantly, you can use a clever optimization exploit tied to the game engine's physics simulation:

Because Escape the Backrooms runs its mechanical interaction animations directly parallel to your rendering frame rate, jumping from a locked 60 FPS to hundreds of frames causes the internal logic to fast-forward. The slow key-turning and dispensing animations will skip entirely, wrapping up the level and opening your escape path within the blink of an eye.
