Beyond a Steel Sky (BASS) is an interesting game with a VERY simple gameplay. The story start strong with a comic book estetic with a Sci-fi theme and a mystery all put together. It keeps the played both engaged and intrigued, but it starts showing its true colors after an hour or so of playing. Awkward animations in cutscenes, barelly any (if good) facial animations that consist well with the situation, no skip cutscene options and probably more that i didnt pay attention to as i later on didnt pay attention much to what i needed to do but just enjoyed the thematic landscape the designers had really put a lot of effort in, which shows. Overall, its a game that losses its charm but is still an enjoyable play till the end. But would not recommend if you don't like pretty linear progression and a lot of talking and logic based puzzles (i would say there is maybe 3-4 different puzzle types in the game). I put it as a recommend for those that wanna have a relatively simple interactive story with no big impact on how you do stuff (beside how you interact with one single character). It is also very easy to 100% for those that enjoy that. Took me a bit over 11 hours (including doing some stuff in real life, like eating, while running the game). Pros: + Short + Intresting story and artistic theme (Sci-fi with a comic book look) + Good Voice acting (for the majority) + Interesting first 1/2 of the story Cons: - Losses it's charm after an hour or so - Awkward cutscene/talking animations - Laughable face animations (or the lack of) - Unskippable cutscenes - Lackluster second part of the game - Dissapointing ending sequence. Overall, would give this game a 8/10 in the first half of the game, then 5/10 in the later part. Hope this helps.

1. At first , I played this game for about 1 hours and got bored very quickly because the starting 1st hours of the game is very normal/dull. 2. BUT, this game gets very interesting after you enter the UNION CITY and the ending is Very Good. 3. Although you will be spoiled, by playing this game with "director's commentary" on your 1st playthrough, it will be worth it, as it gives a lot of depth to the story and the characters and makes you immersed in the game. 4. This game's CORE game-play = is in it's puzzle mechanics and unique NPC interactions. 5. This game has puzzle hints if you get stuck in a particular puzzle BUT if you use the "hint function" you will not be able to get a "complete the game without using hint" Steam achievement on your 1st play-through - so keep this in mind. 6. Minor immersion break = Sometimes the Background characters just get in between your conversion with the unique NPCs but other than this the game runs smoothly and bug-free. 7. If you are very good at puzzle games or using a walk-through, than you can complete this game under 10 hours (single play-through) otherwise for those who play this types of games occasionally, than it will take less than 20 hours to complete. 8. This game has 2 semi-endings, I say this because the climax is same in both ending But "just the sense with a certain Unique character is is different in each ending". 9. For me , this games Rating is = 7.5/10. 10. Worth buying on sale and or when you fell like playing different type of game that you usually play. 11. NOT a must play game and can be avoided if have Zero interest in puzzle/point and click games.

I disagree that you need to have played and be nostalgic about the first game in order to appreciate this game. I've never played the first one and I love this game. Good graphics, lots of things to do and figure out and places to go. Some interesting scifi themes. You get points that move you up in society, and have to deal with pros and cons of conforming to the rules to get more points. Some of the puzzles are really hard, but it's very satisfying if you figure out the answer without help from the internet. There are some strange surreal bits that I won't spoil. I'm Australian so I appreciated the Australian accents, don't hear that much in video games. Some parts were slow or a bit repetitive but overall I recommend this game for sure.

As a fan of Beneath a Steel Sky, diving into its sequel felt like a reunion with an old friend. The game seamlessly blends nostalgia with innovation, offering familiar characters and settings alongside fresh storytelling and gameplay mechanics. Visually pleasing and filled with rich detail, the game's world drew me in from the start. The narrative, filled with intrigue and mystery, kept me hooked until the very end. This is more than just a sequel; it's a love letter to fans of the original and a testament to the enduring appeal of the adventure genre. Whether you're a longtime fan or new to the series, this is a journey worth taking. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3258669396 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3154375039

Starts off very promising, like really really promising and makes an impression that you're about to play through an amazing adventure game with some solid puzzles, fun dialogue and a mystery to unravel. Graphics were also quite well done and controls worked very well. Sad to say that at some point, this all changed for the worse. For me, it was the part where you had to fetch a poem to get the invitation for the aspiration gala. At that point I was about 8 hours into the game. All that charm the game worked so hard to built up disappears in the next hour or two. Why? Cause of the puzzles they force you to do. Hacking billboard to billboard, floating around as Joey, using logic by moving a square around, it all just feels 'off'. And 'off' is definitely what you want to turn the game to at this point. It also doesn't help that the dialogue becomes less tolerable, gone are the witty cute comments but hello annoying oneliners intented to be funny but god Joey do you really really need to shut the fuck up already. The story tries to save it all in the end but it's not strong enough to carry this mess to the finish, it gets an 'okay' but that's it. So why recommend? Like I said, the first 8 hours are very very good. It's the last 4 that were utter shit so I'll give the game an 6/10 to keep it fair. Barely recommendable, get it on sale to temper your disappointments (or maybe I'm being too harsh?).
