Their next game was released in 1994; ''[[Beneath a Steel Sky]]'' became a hit on the Amiga and IBM PC compatibles. The game focused on protagonist Robert Foster's abduction and subsequent search for answers in a [[dystopia]]n city of the future. In that period they also ported [[Sierra Entertainment|Sierra's]] ''[[King's Quest VI: Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow]]'' to the [[Amiga]]. [[Virtual Theatre]] system was used instead of Sierra's Creative Interpreter because of its much better performance.<ref>{{cite journal |last=Fuente |first=Derek Dela |title=Beneath a Steel Sky |journal=Joystick |issue=40 |page=93 |publisher=Hachette Disney Presse |date=July–August 1993 }}</ref>
