DOSGames.com Review:Rating: 4.5
Originally a commercially released adventure game, Beneath a Steel Sky (BASS) was deemed freeware by Revolution Software in 2003. Now you can download and play it for free using the SCUMMVM software. This is a Lucasarts-style adventure game which takes place in a gritty, futuristic setting. Although the graphics and sounds are well done, some of the puzzles are a bit uninspired. Nevertheless it's clearly a well-made game and worth playing for adventure game fans. Note: Although Beneath a Steel Sky is a DOS game it requires the SCUMMVM program to run it. Download SCUMMVM here and install it before downloading the BASS game. If you need help installing or setting up SCUMMVM see the SCUMMVM user manual.

Description of Beneath a Steel Sky

Revolution followed up on the heels of underrated fantasy adventure Lure of The Temptress with this excellent cyberpunk adventure that to this day ranks among the best cyberpunk games ever made.

Beneath a Steel Sky begins with a simple premise that gradually unfolds to include a lot of subtle threads and interesting plot twists: you play Robert Foster, a down-trodden citizen of the oppressive futuristic city that any fan of Orwell's 1984 will immediately recognize. In a quest to find your long-lost father, you will encounter many colorful characters and solve many gadget-oriented puzzles. Revolution's 'virtual theatre' engine introduced in Lure of The Temptress has been significantly improved this time around-- characters follow their own agenda, and the solutions to many puzzles require astute observation and timing skills to disrupt their routine. One of the game's best features is Joey, your talkative droid sidekick whose wry remarks and wacky sarcasm will bring a smile to any Infocom fan who misses Floyd the robot in Planetfall, and help lighten the game's 'dark' atmosphere. Puzzles are generally logical if a bit on the easy side, with the exception of very clever puzzles in the game's cyberspace world. The game is replete with well-written dialogues and excellent artwork by the famed British comic book artist Dave Gibbons (whose work is one of the best introduction sequences seen in a computer game). A must-play for all cyberpunk fans and everyone else.

Note: In July 2003, Revolution not only released both the CD-ROM version and the floppy version into the public domain - they also gave the ScummVM team the source code to run with their wonderful interpreter. Thanks to both ScummVM team and Revolution for this incredible news :)

So, you basically revealed the entire story just through screenshots lol!

I would like to note, since no one else has, the version that GOG has is provided for free. I even checked to be sure whether it is free, or it just was free when I got my account, but it is and has been for years available for free with a GOG account, along with at least a dozen others.

For those having trouble running this on Win7/8 try downloading SCUMMVM (google it) this runs most old point n click adventure games like Monkey Island etc. It also runs Beneath a Steel Sky fine..

Good game.. Although puzzles are REALLY hard for someone who's new to adventure games.
I love the little 'pet robot' that follows you around!

great game , btw CD version is totaly freeware , on scummVM site http://scummvm.org/games/

Good game.
Some of the puzzles in the beginning of the game are hard. In a few of the early places, you have no clue what to do next.. And in one of those early places it is really difficult to see in the image the element that you must activate. However the rest of the game is really good, with lots of humour.
Don't hesitate to use a walkthrough.
