In the middle of a beautiful summer day a teenager is captured by two men in dark glasses and long coats. This is going to be a very interesting day!
It’s been six months since the super secret secret service agency – RGB – started investigating the mystery of the gold missing from the main European bank, to no avail. They are so desperate that they went to a fortune teller for advice and she told them to make you into an agent.
You are Mark Hopper, the average teenager, who becomes an RGB agent and the agency’s salvation.
Your rewards will be girls, because every girl loves the secret agent, don’t they?
GOG.com offers Beneath a Steel Sky and Lure of Tempress.
Both are point-and-click adventure games by Revolution Software. Beneath a Steel Sky places you in the shoes of Robert Foster, the sole survivor of a plane crash in cyberpunk Australia’s Outback. Raised in the wasteland, you were forcibly “reintegrated” into the city. Now your plan is to get out. Lure of the Temptress is set in a fantasy world, where you become a peasant named Diermot. After an attempt to bring order to a rebellious town goes wrong, you’re flung from your mount and wake up in a dungeon. It is your duty to escape and rid the town of its evil enchantress and her minions.
To download you must register with gog.com
This games are freeware by many years, the gog versions add the full support for windows xp-vista without the need to use DosBox or ScummVM. Beneath a Steel Sky comes with some goodies like wallpapers and a comic book.
After the Dungeons and Dragons fantasy setting of Revolution’s first game, Lure of the Temptress, Revolution decided to go down a completely different avenue with its second adventure game, Beneath a Steel Sky, that of Science Fiction. A bleak vision of the future was imagined, where mind control and medical science combined forces to repress the populace. Leading comic artist, Dave Gibbons, joined the design team to visualize this desperate landscape. The result, released in 1994, was the cult classic Beneath a Steel Sky.
Beneath a Steel Sky was produced for Amiga and PC.
In August 2003, BASS was made available for free download and is now classed as freeware. The sources and resource files are available from http://www.scummvm.org Using this new engine, BASS can be played on XP, MacOS, Linux, Amiga and pocketPC.
