I quite enjoyed the story, worldbuilding, and puzzles. My first playthrough ran about 9~ hours and my second about 3. The characters were enjoyable and unique. The eyes on Oriana freaked me out a bit in cutscenes but nothing I cant get over. Fairly simple 100% only one set of 5 collectables, no parkour, no combat, but the M.I.N.O.S. hacking was fun to mess with. It was like the old scratch coding logic games. I very much want to play Beneath A Steel Sky now to understand some lore and story better, not necessary to enjoy the game however. Picked it up for 5 bucks I think, worth it!

An amusing game, worth playing. The hero is trying to solve a mystery in a mildly corrupt, slightly dysfunctional high tech socialist future. There is a sense of danger and risk, but very little violence. Believable motivations and reasonable puzzles. Context matters, some triggers only work when approached in the right sequence. Beyond the game plot, it is mildly reassuring to think that our future could be like this, rather than a post-apocalyptic wasteland.

You can tell how much the creators cared about making a good sequel to the original. I definitely recommend playing through Beneath a Steel Sky or watching someone else's play through before playing this sequel. For the actual gameplay, you're basically playing an interactive 3D comic. I believe there's a few ways you can make things happen but you're mostly experiencing a linear story. Some of the mechanics get a little repetitive but they do put some interesting stuff in there. You'll also see some areas where they change up the gameplay a bit. Kinda cool. I liked the hint system. A lot of times I was stuck basically knowing what to do but not how so I had to drill down a bit to get it to tell me what I was missing, However, I much prefer that over them giving too much info. So they did a great job there. I very much enjoyed my play through and am going back to check out some of the in-game commentary. TL;DR: If you don't mind playing a linear story and like clicking around trying things then I highly recommend this game. There's so many little references, call-backs, and extra details they put into it, you can really tell how much love and care for the Steel Sky lore/universe went into making it.

Like the original years ago, I enjoyed this all the way through with the characters and the humour keeping me entertained way more than any NixFlix or other straming show I've watched n recent years. This game was really well made and the cartoon style 3d world worked great. It didn't seem to heavy on my midrange system either. I would highly reccomed this game to anyone who likes narrative based exploration games that don't involve destroying everything that moves. I found this one after finishing Encodya and looking for something to follow it. Coming from favorites like Half-life +2, Outer Worlds, RDR2, Cyberpunk and the Fallout games this is a refreshing change of pace. Would love to see more like this.

First of all, this is a direct sequel to Beneath the Steel Sky, available for free on Steam. If like me you don't have patience for 1994 point-and-click, it's perfectly fine to just go watch a full playthrough. Either way I definitely recommend experiencing the first game, as it definitely improves the experience with the second. And man, what an experience it was. The story in this game is simply great, condensed, emotional, maybe without strong plot twists or redefining the genre, but very solid and enjoyable overall. The gameplay consists of exploration, dialogue and environmental puzzles. There are not a lot of environments, but they are diverse and polished, letting you immerse in the story completely. The dialogues are well written, often genuinely funny and the voice acting is great, characters are distinct and memorable. The hacking system you use for the puzzles 35% of the time is simple yet well designed and very fun, I ended up wishing there had been more of it in more elaborate puzzles. And I have to mention the hint system, which won't solve anything for you at once, but will always push you in the right direction should you need it, not allowing the game to lose momentum and feel sluggish (I feel this might be an issue in the first game if you're not playing it in 1994). Oh, and music is also very good. Really hard for me to find flaws in this title. Seriously, just play it!
