Beneath a Steel Sky: Remastered is an enhanced remake of the classic 1994 point-and-click adventure game Beneath a Steel Sky developed by Revolution Software. Released for the iPhone on October 7, 2009, the remake features fully-animated cut scenes, a hint system, and remastered sound.

In 2009, Revolution opened a new development division, Revolution Pocket, which would aim to develop titles for modern handhelds. Comic book artist Dave Gibbons previously worked with Revolution on Beneath a Steel Sky, and teamed up with game director Charles Cecil to work on Beneath a Steel Sky: Remastered, making it Revolution Pocket's debut title. Met with highly positive reviews and solid sales, Beneath a Steel Sky: Remastered is often listed as one of the greatest adventure games on the iPhone.

Gameplay

Beneath a Steel Sky: Remastered is a 2D adventure game played from a third-person perspective. Via a touch user interface, the player guides protagonist Robert Fister through the game's world and interacts with the environment by selecting from multiple commands. The player controls George's movements and actions with a mouse or a gamepad. George must collect various objects, which can then be used with other collectible objects, parts of the scenery, or with other people in order to solve puzzles and progress in the game. George can also engage in dialogue with other characters through conversation trees to gain hints of what needs to be done to solve the puzzles or progress the plot. It follows the story of the original game.
