Beneath a Steel Sky (1994)

As a first-timer to this game, I wasn't sure what to expect. The game was certainly worth the few hours I spent playing on it, but I don't know if I would have been as pleased had I paid for it. Perhaps I'm just too used to modern P&Cs. Anyway, I still enjoyed the game due to its insane humor. The plot is hackneyed, the voice acting is mediocre, and the score is grating, but the art is lovely, especially when taken into context for the time, and the aforementioned wacky humor is also a big plus. The game is a bit too hard for my taste, but the included walkthrough helped me through any rough patches I encountered. Worth playing; not a game to add to my all-time favorites, but good.

First game that throw me into cyber-punk world when i was 14 years old boy. I had Amiga 500 and that game was on 15 th ploppies ! That was worth of it !!

Classic gameplay, dark humour and setting. Good Stuff.

So cash, I'm only 17, but this is the shiz

First up, you have to be a fan of point and click adventure titles to bother with this one. It's not very accommodating for those who aren't used to the genre. The setting of this game is just incredible, you really do get drawn into the city and feel like the outsider. The level design is brilliant, yet simple; you start on the top level of the city (the lowest class is the highest up and the social elite reside at ground level) and gradually work your way down. You can always backtrack to earlier levels too, which unexpectedly becomes a requirement of several puzzles. Voice acting is great, if inconsistent (bizarre mixture of American and British accents, and the opening cartoon seems to feature Australians). Gameplay wise there's not a lot going on, but you're playing this more for the experience. Also featuring the best robot sidekick ever. Reccommended.
