	Several Rooms have written puzzles placed on either the floor, or the ceiling, or even on a wall. The source of the puzzles is unknown, but it's been said that anyone who can solve the mysterious, anomalous puzzles will be instantly rewarded with treasure of some kind. Sometimes it's an instant refresher, sometimes it's a weapon or item, or sometimes it's exactly the answers you were looking for.

	'''The BackHalls''' (Real name unknown) were a mysterious and seemingly unending labyrinth of hallways and office spaces, where the only companions you'll find are the comfort of the damp carpet under your feet, and the buzz of the florescent lights above. Creatures from all manner of time and space found themselves in the BackHalls fighting for survival.
