Beneath a Steel Sky (1994)

Beneath a Steel Sky (1994)

Controls?
I think I'm missing some of the controls, I'm trying to get past the first puzzle in the game and so far I've only figured out that lmb is for movement and rmb is for interacting with objects. Is there an inventory or something?

In fact there's three game's manuals offered there (with largely overlapping info, but still interesting stuff).

There's useful info in there about the controls and the game's world and characters.

Hover your mouse at the top of the screen and a pull down menu should appear showing your inventory. F5 gives you the game menu to make saves, reload saves, and quit the game.
That seems to be it.

Thanks. :) I started playing tonight and i figured out the first puzzle and got a bit further. But i could not figure out how to actually save the game and continue later on.

Kinda late to the game here, but I found that you *have* to type a name in for the save before it will work.
That is so unintuitive... I also didn't know how to get to the inventory.
