I would not have expected this game to be as good as it was. When I first installed it I did expect much. Once I started playing, I couldn't stop. The game was somewhat short, but a great way to pass the time. The story was very well played out, the graphics were good for its time, and the voice was great. Beneath a Steel Sky exceeded my expectations. I recommend everyone to at least give this title a try.
Add Blade Runner and all dark-future-stories together and you get Beneath A Steel Sky. It has all: Action, suspense and a brilliant storyline.
If you are a fan of good old adventure games: play it! Now!!!
I wanted to love this cyberpunk point-and-click adventure. It begins with a dramatic and fun prologue shown in comic book panels, then throws you into a world of grime, danger, dystopia and sarcastic robots. The inversion of the usual stratification of rich and poor is an interesting twist, with the wealthy living in the shadows of skyscrapers at ground level and blue-collar laborers toiling at factories high in the sky, and there are a few surprises and laughs to be had through the adventure.
Unfortunately, the gameplay is rather lacking, with lots of tedious backtracking, pixel-hunting of items (some of which blend almost perfectly into the background), and unbalanced puzzles. Some of the puzzles are fine, requiring common sense or some thought, but many depend on certain areas opening up unannounced after completing an unrelated task, or on solving obvious puzzles without any clear in-universe reason for doing so, then hoping the results will somehow be useful later. The game often abruptly dead-ends with no hints of what to do next, making the only viable strategy either consulting a walkthrough or using every item on everything until eventually some combination works in a way you never would have anticipated.
The voice acting is decent and the dialogue is good, but conversations are short and to the point for the most part, leaving the world and characters feeling underdeveloped. The humor and wackiness mesh rather badly with the darker themes of the game, and the text very often doesn't quite match what the voice actors are saying, as well as some lines having only text and no voice, seemingly at random points, and some lines even seem to be missing from the game entirely. All these flaws combine to continually pull you out of the game world and lead to a stilted and unsatisfying story. I'm hoping the modern-day sequel will iron out these issues, because I'd like to get a fuller experience that lives up to this game world's potential.
20 years on it still ranks as a very decent, old-school point & click adventure game with an interesting thematic mix to its story and a kick-ass title/name.
And it’s now free on GOG.
While not perfect, it's still worth downloading and playing through at least once.
The game is a good little adventure game, although somewhat illogical puzzle solving/progress at specific times. This illogic approach can provide frustrations on how to advance however and due to the dated graphics, some things can be easy to overlook and also help add to the frustration.
However most of the time you forget these frustrations fast and if you ever were into adventure games, this game is absolutely worth the download and the time it takes to complete.
It isn't terrible long, but the hours are mostly well spend.
The humor in the game is the main selling point in my opinion. It is very well done, a lot of the time with great Monty Pyton-esque timing and some funny sequences which can make you laugh out loud.
So definitely worth the download and trying it out. If nothing else for the "nostalgia" or simply to try out an iconic game in the genre.
Be vigilant player one.
This game is waiting for a review. Take the first shot!
