Gemini Rue is a graphic adventure game set in a rainy and gloomy world where you’ll simultaneously embody two characters who must discover a terrible secret.
As in all games of this genre, in Gemini Rue you will advance through mouse clicks telling the characters what to do. So you’ll walk, gather objects and interact with other people and with the environment.
All in the pursuit of discovering the dark story behind the two main characters. One, a former murderer who must track down a lost contact, and the other an amnesiac prisoner who is imprisoned in a mysterious installation.
You’ll advance with them through perfectly detailed scenarios that will unveil surprising details of the story. This feature is one of the highlights of the title: the story has various unexpected stunning twists that will astonish you.
Another surprise waiting for you in Gemini Rue is the ability to take up arms and attack enemies in specific situations. Although this inclusion feels somewhat out of place in this genre, it helps make the title more dynamic and entertaining.
While the voices included in the game are somewhat generic, Gemini Rue is an excellent title at the same level of the classics of the genre.
