Game Overview

High Steel is one of those Amiga games that looks simple at first—you're just a construction worker trying to build a skyscraper—but then the gremlins show up and everything goes sideways. You’ve got to place girders and floor panels while dodging these little pests that drop from the sky, steal your materials, and even stun you if they land on your head. And if that wasn’t enough, the contractor’s breathing down your neck with a tight deadline.

The controls are straightforward—move left and right, grab steel beams from the crane, and stack floors—but the real challenge is doing it all while chaos unfolds. Gremlins lay eggs that hatch into even nastier creatures, acid-spitting blobs grow from your girders, and don’t even get me started on the banana peels. You’ll find yourself scrambling to finish just one floor before the timer runs out, and then the next level demands two. It’s brutal, but in that satisfying "one more try" kind of way.

Oh, and keep an eye out for food drops—nothing like a sandwich mid-chaos to keep your energy up. Just don’t get too distracted, or a gremlin will swipe it right out of your hands.
