Doors Floor 100 Guide — Entity Patterns, Items, and Run Strategy

What a Door 100 Run Actually Looks Like

Doors is a horror roguelike where you and up to three teammates progress through numbered hotel rooms. Most rooms are safe; some spawn entities that kill instantly if you handle them wrong. Reach Door 100 and you win — die without a revive and the run ends.

A typical first clear takes 25–45 minutes depending on team coordination and how many detours you take for items. Speed comes later; your first goal is survival through pattern recognition, not sprinting past every room.

Redeem active codes on our Doors codes page before queuing — revives and knob boosts matter most on floor 70+ push attempts. Codes do not replace learning entity behavior, but they insure one mistake on an otherwise clean run.

Floors 1–30: Learning the Basics

Early floors teach room types: normal doors, key rooms, lockpick rooms, and light-reliant dark rooms. Move as a group but do not stack inside closets — most entities only need one hider.

Rush and Ambush appear in this range. Rush requires hiding before it passes; listen for the static wind-up. Ambush double-backs — wait in the closet until the second pass finishes. If you hear either cue and panic-run into the open hallway, you will die more than from any late-game entity.

Screech spawns in dark rooms. When you hear a hiss behind you, turn around quickly to despawn it. Eyes damages you for direct line-of-sight — use peripheral movement and back away without staring.

Buy a light source early from the shop between runs. Dark rooms without a lantern are guesswork; with one, Screech becomes manageable.

Floors 30–70: Entity Density Increases

Mid-run is where teams split because players recognize different cues. Assign callouts: one person announces room numbers, another tracks Rush audio.

Figure appears in this band. Figure chases on a timer — hide immediately when you hear the stomping pattern, not when you see the model. Panic camera movement gets you caught; listen for footsteps and breathing.

Halt requires you to stop moving when it tells you to. Reverse psychology fails — moving when it says stop kills you. Communicate "Halt room" so teammates do not walk in blind.

Seek creates a path of eyes — only walk when the path is safe. Rushing Seek rooms is the most common mid-run death for players who mastered early closets but never learned Seek timing.

Carry lockpicks and skeleton keys. Detouring for a locked path with good loot is worth it in co-op; solo players should skip risky detours until they can beat floor 70 consistently.

Floors 70–100: Push Phase

Late hotel floors compress entity spawns — mistakes cost revives. Enter this band with revives in inventory from codes or shop purchases, not empty-handed.

Figure, Seek, and Eyes combinations appear in faster succession. Headphones are non-negotiable here. If you play on speakers with game audio low, you will lose runs you could otherwise clear.

Shop knobs on lockpicks, crucifixes, and revives before cosmetics. Crucifixes can prevent entity spawns in critical rooms — save them for Figure or double-entity rooms, not random convenience.

Co-op etiquette: one player hides per closet unless the entity explicitly allows multiples. Two players in one closet often get both killed when the door opens wrong.

If you die on floor 92, revive or restart is a team call — spending a revive on a run where two teammates are already dead is usually worse than resetting with lessons learned.

Quick Entity Reference

Rush — Hide in closet before it passes; listen for wind-up static.

Ambush — Hide through two passes, not one.

Screech — Hiss behind you in dark rooms; turn to despawn.

Eyes — Do not look at it; back away with peripheral vision.

Figure — Hide on stomp audio; do not run in open halls.

Halt — Stop when commanded; moving kills.

Seek — Walk only on safe eye paths.

Learn one entity per session rather than all at once. Our Doors beginner guide walks through essentials if you are still on floor 30.

Shop Items and Code Strategy

Knobs are permanent progression currency. Spend on run-saving items first: revives, lockpicks, light sources, crucifixes.

Revive codes from our Doors codes page should be redeemed in the lobby before a push session — not after you are already dead mid-run.

Between attempts, review which entity killed you. Repeating the same death type three times means practice that entity in lower floors or private lobbies before spending more revives.
