Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players looking for extended gameplay or substantial replayability may find its 60–90-minute runtime limiting.
- Players seeking combat, complex puzzles, or deep character progression may find the walking-simulator structure too narrow.
- Players who prefer light or non-threatening settings may not suit its psychological horror and oppressive hospital atmosphere.
Our take on From The Other Side
The compact runtime keeps the experience focused on atmosphere, anomaly work, and the family mystery, but leaves little room for extended exploration, layered progression, or repeated sessions.
What is From The Other Side?
Play as Steve, a security guard working his first shift at a hospital with a disturbing history.
Monitor camera feeds for supernatural incidents, then travel through the building to examine and repair anything that appears wrong. The investigation leads through hidden areas, fragmented memories, and clues about Steve’s daughter while threats remain nearby. The game combines first-person exploration with anomaly detection and requires direct intervention rather than camera monitoring alone. Its psychological horror uses deception, unsettling events, and a threatening hospital setting. This walking simulator lasts between 60 and 90 minutes.
