Beneath a Steel Sky (1994)
Description
Robert Foster is an innocent outsider stranded in a vast city where oppressed civilians live and work in soaring tower blocks... while the corrupt, covetous and rich lie underground, shielded from all pollution. Alone, save for a robot circuit board, Foster must fight for survival... and discover the sinister truth behind his abduction...
Paranoid population. Psychotic criminals. Power hungry corporation. Big Brother government. Haves and have nots.
In the not so impossible future. In the melting pot of Union City. All man's social problems are coming to a boil. Under the claustrophobic lid of a steel sky.
From the pit of the industrial level to the belly of commercial sector, to the spheres where the rich and powerful play. It's Man against Man. Man against Machine. Man against Time. In an urban hell only you can liberate... Maybe.
Featuring Revolution's Software innovative Virtual Theatre system, Beneath a Steel Sky is a gripping science fiction point and click adventure game in the cyberpunk genre. Over 100 locations designed and art directed by award-winning comic book author Dave Gibbons (Watchmen fame). His comic book, inspired by the game itself, is included to complete the content.

classic but pretty clunky
I love the art and environment design. The controls are fine. The main issue is how obtuse it is sometimes with what you're supposed to be doing, unrealistic characters, and convolution of its puzzles. But I saw there was a sequel, and had to play this first. Love Revolution's later games!

Good game but a little flawed
It's very cool, but the clunkiness of the interface and controls stick out a lot, those are a product of its time, but still, it can be frustrating to do what you need to do and it fails because of something that is not apparent. There is also a remastered version of this but it appears to be an Apple exclusive.

A Fun Retro Cyberpunk Adventure
Beneath a Steel Sky is a really enjoyable and charming game. The story is engaging, the world is atmospheric, and the puzzles are satisfying. Even though it’s an old game, it still feels fun to play. A great experience for fans of classic point-and-click adventures!
