Ok maybe not but the graphics were incredible for the early 90's. I'm in awe of this game because I didnt have a pc back then that could handle a game like this. I was just a young kid who had Genesis/Sega CD and an outdated pc my dad bought years ago.
I loooooooooooove the feeling that those classic adventures give me, its something about the style and the music.
New adventures just don't do it for me anymore, except for a couple AGS games.
I havent played it but I watched some guys' walkthrough on youtube and yeah it was long, boring and tedious but still interesting. I really suck at these kind of games and probably wouldnt have been able to finish it. I wish this game was a on Sega CD.

This is where it's at, Beneath a Steel Sky (-_- )_\m/
EDIT: Like it more without the voices XD
Hm I recall a police adventure game that was better overall(I may be wrong, It's been ages, and wasn't one of my main games, but I think it was called police story/quest or something, there was even a port for the C64), but I'll give you, the real life portraites is pretty good for the early 90s.
In any case though, the King's Quest games is where It's at, so all of you chumps are wrong :), nothing beats the King's Quest games, what amazing adventure games they are, It's a crying shame Sierra is no longer with us sigh(they made most of the awesome PC Adventure games).
I think you mean Police Quest and I dont think it was on C64 and if it was I can only imagine how horrid it looked.Quote:

I loved Police Quest 1, AGI version though!
Hell, I love all official AGI games, only 16 colors but so much adventuring going on.
Yea, it was pretty good.Quote:

Did someone say...adventure games?

Three of my favorites. I still have the two Star Trek games. You'll have to pry those out of my cold dead hands.
Kings Quest on C64(I don't think there's a C64 port), never knew that, played them on the Apple 2 gs.Quote:

To Bastardcat: Holy crap man, it has authentic Startrek music, and is that the voice of kirk or a really good impersonater?
It probally cost more money to get the rights to use the music, then it cost to make the entire game, and publish it combined.
Lol Space Quest seems like the red headed bastard child of Startrek, and King's Quest.
The C64 had Space Quest.Quote:
