From the other Side is a highly cooperative game in which it is essential that the Heroes harmonize their actions.
Agreeing on an effective strategy and establishing the right order to fight the Creatures is a crucial element to victory, for if the Heroes fail, Phylax the Dark will emerge from the well and the game will be lost.
The game is divided into turns, which themselves are divided into the following phases, to be completed in order:

  • PHASE 1: HUNT!
  • PHASE 2: TACTICAL PLAN
  • PHASE 3: FIGHTING THE CREATURES
  • PHASE 4: BATTLE AND OUTCOME
  • PHASE 5: RESTORATION
  • PHASE 6: DRAGON’S AWAKENING

THE VALUE OF THE CREATURE IS GIVEN BY:

  • The core Strength of the Creature (including Creature effects).
  • Any face-up  Dragon’s Breath tokens on the Battle board, above that same Creature.
  • The value of
    the Creature die roll.

THE VALUE OF THE HEROES INVOLVED IN THE FIGHT IS GIVEN BY:

  • The sum of their Mastery Bonuses (obviously only the ones that are valid for the Creature being faced).
  • The sum of the Strength of the Actions against that specific Creature.
  • Bonuses resulting from Action and/or Artifact card effects.
  • The value of the Hero die roll
    (roll once for all Heroes in each fight.)

When all the fights have finished, each Hero performs the following actions in order:

  • Draw 1 Action card from their own deck plus another for each of their own Bond tokens not flipped to the Wound side which are present in the Initiative Line. If there are no cards left in the Hero’s Action deck, shuffle the discards (including Artifacts) and draw from the newly formed deck. Each Hero can have up to a maximum of 7 cards in total: once this amount is reached, they cannot draw any more cards and in case they already have 7, they do not draw at all.
  • Each Hero takes their own Bond tokens from the Initiative Line and puts them back in their Personal Area.

VICTORY AND DEFEAT >>>>>>

The Heroes win if they collect a sufficient number of Mirror Fragments. Phylax wins if the third Dragon tile is turned up in the the Dragon board.
