Description
From Charles Cecil, creator of the Broken Sword series, with art direction by Dave Gibbons, legendary comic book artist behind ‘Watchmen’, comes ‘Beyond A Steel Sky’, the long awaited sequel to the cult classic ‘Beneath a Steel Sky’.

You are Robert Foster. A child has been abducted in a brutal attack. You have vowed to bring him home. The trail has led you to Union City, one of the last remaining mega-cities in a world ravaged by shattering wars, and political meltdown.

Union City is a utopia, its people loving life under the control of an altruistic AI: ever-attentive androids, designer living, piazzas and bars. What’s not to love? But this City has a dark underbelly...

‘Beyond a Steel Sky’ is a dramatic, humorous, cyberpunk thriller in which engaging puzzles drive a fast-paced narrative set in a dynamic gameworld that responds to – and is subverted by – the player’s actions.

Features:

The World
An adventure set within a dynamic world, populated by wilful characters driven by motivations that the player can subvert. In combination with a unique hacking tool, multiple solutions to puzzles emerge from player choices.

The Story
Unravel dark conspiracies, defeat a terrifying antagonist in this dramatic, humorous, cyberpunk thriller, which explores contemporary themes: social control, AI, and total surveillance.

The Puzzles
Intelligent puzzles are interwoven with an intriguing dramatic narrative to deliver a compelling gameplay experience.

The Look
A beautifully detailed, comic-book styled world, from the mind of legendary comic artist Dave Gibbons.

Junk game with game breaking bugs.

Game has well known and documented game breaking bugs and I'm not the only one who has mentioned them. I have lost count of how many countless hours I have wasted on this title trying to circumvent them. I'm done with this. To think I purchased t his on release at full price. Now I'm stuck close to the end of this stupid game because the statelite won't appear near the toaster. Many others have the same problem. And no - restarting and reloading previous save doesn't help. So for a number of us, the game is just unfinishable. I didn't pay to be your beta tester. Shouldn't have released this buggy mess. And I should have known better than to buy it.

A complete disgrace of a game.

This is hands down the WORST sequel to a game ever created. The controls are garbage, and the moon logic of getting the achievement day badge was IMPOSSIBLE to complete even after watching the walkthrough! The devs should be ashamed of themselves, I'll never buy another game from these clowns, what a joke.

Another DX11 abomination that needs W10!

Another pathetic attempt from a pathetic company to force to people a DX11 game on W10. Think of a game that tries to be BASS 2, but lacks literally anything that made BASS memorable: music, aesthetics, feel of a dystopia mixed with black comedy. The only thing the game shares with original BASS is a small number of characters and some names. It's also done so poorly it seems to be a half- finished product. That's "Beyond a Steel Sky". Is it retelling for dumb kids as I predicted : The game has nothing in common with original. At the same time there's a lot of concepts being reused: - stranger in unknown futuristic city - evil uniform guy to be avoided - getting operational shell for Joey - tricking the system to get access to further locations in the city - getting access to the apartment of a complete stranger - at some point there's mentioned ongoing war against another city, but it's never observed - interacting with LINK cyberspace - evil AI commanding murderbots to deal with troublemakers - destruction of evil AI, supposedly fixing problems of the city - Joey no longer accompanying the PC after final sequence - return to the desert TL; DR: "Beyond a Steel Sky" is a complete waste of all resources that have been spent on production. It's a failure as a sequel to BASS and as a standalone game. I hope everybody in Revolution Software gets the flu.
