Lust From Beyond Reviews
Ultimately, Lust from Beyond is a pretty enjoyable game. There’s a lot on offer across its seven-hour campaign and between its attention to detail and genuinely interesting setting, I can honestly say that it impressed me more than I initially thought it would. I can imagine that it might not have the widespread appeal for those who don’t associate a survival horror with suggestive or outright sexual themes and it might not have all the pizzaz of some of the heavier contenders in the genre, but Lust from Beyond does showcase a different take on horror that we rarely see and delivers a uniquely enjoyable escapade in the process.
Lust from Beyond: M Edition dives deep into the twisted realm between terror and pleasure. It may not be the most challenging journey the shock of exploring this dangerous landscape leaves a significant impression. You'll have to endure some comedic voice acting and stale combat but uncovering the secrets within Lust from Beyond: M Edition is well worth the journey.
Lust From Beyond is definitely not for the faint of heart or for the weak stomached but it is an interesting dive into the realms of the occult and insanity that can appear especially when dealing with the likes of H.P. Lovecraft, H.R. Giger and Zdzisław Beksiński. Interesting puzzles, crazier environments and even more psychotic cultists and monsters trying to hunt you down, there’s a hell of an adventure to be had if you’ve got the stomach, and the age, for it.
Blending survival horror gameplay with overt sexual themes and a cosmic horror story, Lust From Beyond isn’t a game for everyone and it knows that. It’s targeting a fairly specific audience, but if you fall into that audience, you’ll find a satisfying, compelling, and often macabre experience.
