Played a lot of survival games. Most of them follow the same formula. You wake up alone, you gather resources, you build a shelter, you try not to die. It gets old after a while. By My Side is different. Not because it reinvents the genre, but because it adds something that most survival games forget. You are not alone. The game puts you in a harsh world. Cold, dangerous, unforgiving. But you have a companion. A creature, a partner, something that stays with you. You need to survive together. You gather food, you find shelter, you watch out for each other. It sounds simple, but the way the game handles that relationship makes it special.
