Random Game Post #4 - Beneath A Steel Sky
Today's entry is the somewhat underrated point-and-click adventure game: Beneath A Steel Sky. It was first released in 1994 for the Amiga and DOS. The copy I have is actually Argentinian, though I'm not entirely of its release date in that region. The cover art on this one is the variant used for every region except North America for some reason. Not sure why the US got a subpar version of the cover.
Anyhow, as stated, it's a point-and-click adventure game, much like those put out by LucasArts and Sierra. Interestingly, it's set in Australia during an alternate future where cities are owned and run by corporations, and the vast technological wasteland titled "The Gap." The story follows a man named Robert and his droid as they search one of the technological cities after his tribe was wiped out. It has a dark, dystopic sci-fi aesthetic and executes it quite well. Highly recommend.
