![]() ![]() This game truly modernizes the old point and click and makes it feel like something newer, opposite of the nostalgia-driven Thimbleweed Park (which I enjoyed) this takes the same premise of talking to everyone, picking up everything, and trying to use things in any combination possible to keep the story progressing. ![]() Set ten years after the events of the 1994 video game Beneath a Steel Sky, players assume the role of Robert Foster as he finds himself returning to Union City on the hunt for a kidnapped child, only to learn that the city’s new utopia state is not what it appears to be. Luckily you aren’t missing much in picking up the Beyond a Steel Sky, the game does a good enough job setting the stage for you and much of the game is focused on the present, not the past game. ![]() I do recall playing the original but it’s been a LONG time since I’ve thought about this game. As an “old” man, these types of games have always had a soft spot in my heart. 27 years later we get a sequel to Beneath a Steel Sky…The original came out in the hay day of point and click adventure games like Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, and Broken Sword. ![]()
