Once upon a time adventure games popped out of the ground. Everybody loved them and they were absolutely wonderful. Beneath a Steel Sky is one of the best games in this genre, and maybe one of the best games ever.
Even though the premise and the setting are really serious (Dark future, faceless corporations etc.) the game serves A LOT of really funny characters and dialogues. One of the best scenes is the Courtroom scene, absolutely hilarious. And Joey, the main character's robotic friend, is a great character. Always despising humans, because of his robotic nature, pulling off sarcastic retorts anytime, he'll make you laugh for sure.
Bottom line: great story, fantastic characters, great setting, and it's free. WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT?
