New anomaly: the Runs. Get caught and you'll spend a few minutes leaving a trail you can follow back
Poop is now edible
Teammate voices in Backrooms madness sound lower and vary every time, and familiar memes sometimes slip in
Ball of yarn is now sold at the bar and on the truck phone
Rostovoy now takes stairs, ramps and ladders in the Backrooms, hiding up top no longer works
Mimics and other climbing monsters use Backrooms ladders too

Rostovoy grabs anyone who gets close in front or beside him and spins around fast on anyone behind, no more beating him from behind
Rostovoy copies a random player and is smarter about who to hunt, and wanders the Backrooms when it's empty
Rostovoy goes for Bats and Kekobas first when he sees them
Rostovoy photos are now worth more than any other monster
Backrooms loot is now worth 1.6x more
Mines now go off twice as fast once armed, running off one is much harder
Mimics remember more of your lines and say different ones each game
Broken furniture stays the way it fell and drops its doors, drawers and dishes on the floor, a smashed sideboard now actually looks smashed

Searchable furniture finds loot again, a bug left every one of them empty
Magpies no longer lose items behind walls or endlessly shuffle one item at a full nest
Rostovoy no longer floats or sinks into walls after stairs, and no longer vanishes
Winch gets stuck in corridors and on walls less often
Backrooms snakes no longer lock your backpack slots
Carts no longer get stuck in walls after a dungeon, vanish or fall under the map when thrown from the bar window
Grabbing a cart parked handle-first in a corner no longer throws you through the wall
Items that fall through the floor now come back to where they fell
Backrooms furniture and shelves no longer block passages
Backrooms monsters no longer lose their way on stairs, long ramps and hotel corridors
Monsters squeezed in a doorway are no longer thrown through the wall
Doors with a high threshold no longer bump your head on the lintel
A flickering lamp no longer leaves a square of light on the floor when it goes out
The chalk outline in the substation is now visible from the top-down view
Long sessions with many map reloads no longer pile up memory and crash
