From Hell

From Hell is a third-person action survival horror game inspired by action survival games from the 90s. Set in the late 1960s, it follows your search for an old friend, an archaeologist whose letter asks for help, through an ancient manor and the secrets he uncovered during the darkest hours of his life.

Explore and survive

You explore a partially nonlinear map, collect and use weapons and items, and fight ghouls and other monsters emerging from the mythical underworld. You can use the secrets of an extinct mystical blue plant from ancient Egypt to craft items and powerful ammunition. Puzzles and hidden secrets stand between you and finding your missing friend.

Combat and movement

Weapons deal additional damage when aimed fully, and enemies have per-bone damage and weak spots; aiming steadily for the head is most effective. You can kick a door by pressing the interaction button again as you open it. Running lets you jump higher, but both running and jumping drain stamina.
