I'm a huge fan of the original having played it on release back in the day. I wasn't sure how I felt about the sequel upon seeing the 3D comic style graphics as opposed to the classic pixel art I was used to. I just got round to playing it now and I'm really enjoying the experience so far. Good puzzles and story telling has me engaged and wanting to play again. I read people complaining how linear the game feels, though this is basically like an old style point and click adventure game and it's good fun. Worth playing if you are a fan of the original.

I Started this game as a random game to play from my un-played library. And yet another game I happily finished in one go! Oldskool point and click adventure with a nice story line, good voice acting and music , funny moments and great graphics. IMO this game deserves more up-votes, so let me start with mine. Having said that... I see in today's prices it is on the market for 30 Eur... THAT is too much. I would not pay more then 15, and you should be able to get it on sale or third party sellers for < 10 Eur.

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
