Our take on The Other Side Of The Screen
Rather than following one protagonist through a single horror scenario, the game divides its escape situations among five characters. Its one-life rule and lack of saves also replace save-based progression with a more final structure.
What is The Other Side Of The Screen?
Set in 2072, this indie horror game follows five characters participating in a deadly show.
Future technology lets people enter virtual worlds physically and mentally. Each character must find a way out of a different location, and the levels vary in theme and difficulty. Players can choose any of the five characters. Completing the game with every character is required to open a secret ending. Each character has one life, and there are no save buttons, so a death means that character cannot continue. The game also includes a soundtrack and professional voice performances.
