-    (description
-     "Beneath a Steel Sky is a science-fiction thriller set in a bleak
-post-apocalyptic vision of the future.  It revolves around Union City,
-where selfishness, rivalry, and corruption by its citizens seems to be
-all too common, those who can afford it live underground, away from
-the pollution and social problems which are plaguing the city.
-
-You take on the role of Robert Foster, an outcast of sorts from the
-city since a boy who was raised in a remote environment outside of
-Union City simply termed ``the gap''.  Robert's mother took him away
-from Union City as a child on their way to ``Hobart'' but the
-helicopter crashed on its way.  Unfortunately, Robert's mother died,
-but he survived and was left to be raised by a local tribe from the
-gap.
-
-Years later, Union City security drops by and abducts Robert, killing
-his tribe in the process; upon reaching the city the helicopter taking
-him there crashes with him escaping, high upon a tower block in the
-middle of the city.  He sets out to discover the truth about his past,
-and to seek vengeance for the killing of his tribe.")
