"The Polish game developer and publisher Movie Games are today very excited and happy to announce that their erotic first-person psychological horror game "Lust from Beyond: Scarlet" is now available via Steam ("Lust from Beyond: Scarlet" is a free and Stand-alone and spoiler-free introduction to the full version of “Lust from Beyond")." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Lust from Beyond is a successor to Lust for Darkness in more ways than one as it's not only much more polished and refined than its predecessor, but also a bigger, deeper, and dare I say more *fleshed* out game as a whole. While the narrative isn't as strong or consistent as Lust for Darkness due to its change of characters through its chapters and back and forth between its real and erotic dimensions, the vast environments give much more flavor to Lust from Beyond's setting and makes it much more enjoyable to explore and play through, with a few collectibles hidden throughout and enough puzzles to keep things engaging and the brain stimulated.
WTMG's Jordan Hawes: "I’ll be honest, I actually enjoyed this much more than I was expecting. I know you’re looking at the score and confused by this statement, but I initially thought this was going to be some cheap smut to earn a quick buck off horny gamers. Cough, Agony, Cough. There is actually a decent amount of effort put in here even if it all didn’t land well with me. I did really enjoy the sections with Lusst’ghaa and the erotic sex parts didn’t seem over the top. In fact, the gore sections are what I thought could be toned down on. A lot of those sections felt like forced shock value and that type of horror doesn’t gel with me as well. Lust from Beyond has some good ideas and didn’t stick to only a walking sim or only a full blown erotic game. I wouldn’t recommend it for general audiences, but if you’re into this genre then you’ll likely get some pleasure from it."
KeenGamer: "Since its first appearance on Kickstarter, Lust from Beyond drew the attention of horror fans with bold sexual themes. The trailers, which left little room for imagination—lecherous bodies, ready to offer themselves with screams of pleasure—gave the impression of a simple desire of hype. Now, let's find out if Movie Games met the expectations of its donors."
