Gemini Rue is a Cyberpunk Adventure Game from 2013, developed by Joshua Nuernberger, and published by Wadjet Eye Games. The game takes a lot of cues from Blade Runner in terms of aesthetics, and is highly recommended for anyone who enjoys a serious adventure game. As a sidenote, this is possibly the only point-and-click adventure game ever to include gunplay as a developed and re-used mechanic.In the distant future, humankind has not only begun colonizing other star systems, but other galaxies. This tale takes place in the Gemini galaxy, in a system that has been completely taken over by the Boryokudan, and revolves around the stories of two people.The first is Azriel Odin, a former Boryokudan assassin who participated in the Gemini wars that led the system to their current state. He had a change of heart, and is now working for the police from the Taurus Galaxy, trying to undermine the Boryokudan. His mission is to find his brother, who he believes is stranded somewhere on the planet Barracus, a Boryokudan-controlled mining world.The second is Delta-Six, AKA "Charlie," a prisoner in some kind of space rehabilitation facility called Center 7. His memory has been wiped, perhaps multiple times, but despite this he knows he must escape from his prison by any means necessary. Something strange and wrong is happening in the prison (yes, moreso than usual for a place that mind-wipes people whenever they're disobedient), and he must get out before he finishes his training exams. | |

Unexpected Gameplay Change | |
| Gemini Rue (Video Game) / int_1467a30c | comment |
Unexpected Gameplay Change: There are a few times in the game where you will get into gunfights with enemies. Instead of the typical "Use Gun On > Enemy", you're required to reload, pop in and out of cover and take aimed shots. | |

When It Rains, It Pours | |
| Gemini Rue (Video Game) / int_30f48597 | comment |
When It Rains, It Pours: On Barracus, weather control towers are used to make it rain constantly on "mining" days. Something about the "mining" process makes this necessary, but it is not clear why it needs to rain or what is being mined, except that it is needed for space travel. During the game, it is always raining heavily. Despite this, no one wears a raincoat besides Sayuri. | |

Foregone Conclusion: Once the Anachronic Order is set firmly into place with the Wham Line, it's certain that Sayuri will escape and Delta-Six will not. A player who's figured out the location of the opening scene in the timeline will also know that Giselle will die. | |

Cowboy Cop: A mild example. For an ex-hitman, Azriel is very averse to infringing on other people's rights, and he won't open fire on unidentified targets. On the other hand, he's not above breaking and entering. | |

Meaningful Name | |
| Gemini Rue (Video Game) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: Azriel Odin. Azriel is the angel of death. He was trained as an assassin and kills a bunch of people in the game. Odin is the chief god of Scandinavians. Odin was referred to by about 200 names. In the mythology, he changes shapes. Azriel Odin has his personality changed quite a lot of times. Similarly, Balder is also a character in Norse mythology, though in this case, the name is non-indicative. In the mythos, Balder is a good, noble god, described as shining, pure, and loved. This contrasts rather strongly with the vindictive, insane Balder of Gemini Rue. | |

Guide Dang It!: Not as prevalent as in many adventure games, but certain things can end up being difficult to figure out the first time.

Turning off the lights to attack the guards outside the room in Hibiscus Highrise. The flippy-switch puzzle. | |

| Gemini Rue (Video Game) / int_7bf14666 | comment |
And Now for Someone Completely Different: The game's intro features Delta-Six in a Controllable Helplessness situation, before switching to Azriel's story. After completing Azriel's first major objective, the story switches back to Delta-Six in his "rehabilitation" facility. This gets subverted with The Reveal that Delta-Six's story took place a year earlier, and that Azriel is Delta-Six. A straight example occurs in the final act, where most of the game is played from the perspective of Sayuri. | |

Yakuza: "Boryokudan" means violence group and refers to what is commonly called Yakuza. | |

Retro Universe: The game takes place two centuries in the future in another star system, but Barracus still has things like phone booths and newspapers. | |

Boom, Headshot!: There's a mechanic for doing this in the shootouts. It's risky (requiring a long time spent out of cover), but it's an instant kill if pulled off. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Gemini Rue (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: When you enter the Boryokudan building for the first time, Azriel has the option to tell the agent "I'm selling these fine dark trench coats", a variation on a Running Gag common in a lot of LucasArts adventure games. "I have this condition..." Azriel, a detective-type wearing a trenchcoat whose portrait shows him looking a bit down and to the side, deals with a perpetually dark and rainy place. Electronic saxophone music plays during tender scenes. You can meet some of the characters of Cowboy Bebop if you can find them Giselle asks Delta-Four to turn off a switch and prefaces her command with "Would you kindly..." When Azriel has Sayuri look through a series of crates for the device he needs to fix his lockpicks, the wrong options are PQ-1, SQ-2, LSL-5, and MI-2. Each crate contains items related to the game it abbreviates. | |

Nature Versus Nurture | |
| Gemini Rue (Video Game) / int_d29e9f65 | comment |
Nature Versus Nurture: The Director is initially on the side of nurture, and aims to prove it through implantation of Fake Memories. Towards the end of the game, he concludes that this doesn't work—someone who has memories of killing innocent people may still have a nature that prevents them from doing it—so he decides it's more efficient to change people's natures. His plan is to force assassin trainees to kill so many other people that their natures warp and they become desensitized. It completely and utterly backfires on him. | |

Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale | |
| Gemini Rue (Video Game) / int_d525f857 | comment |
Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale: The game talks about the Taurus and Gemini galaxies. It explicitly says the Boryokudan are running the Gemini galaxy since the war. The terminal map refers to the three inhabited planets in the Gemini system, and clearly shows a single star around which the three planets orbit. Later, a character refers to a gas cloud on that map as a nebula, and says it is "at the top of the Gemini galaxy." Galaxy ≠Star system. | |

Take Cover! | |
| Gemini Rue (Video Game) / int_eff26b2b | comment |
Take Cover!: A core element of the gunplay. The challenge is in timing when to pop out of cover and be ready to fire, and when to pull the trigger as enemies expose themselves to fire back. Seeing characters enter cover is pretty much the signal to the player that a gunfight is about to break out. | |

20 Minutes into the Future: It's a space-age society, with all the technological advances that entails, but... besides the odd spaceship and Carbon Ray Stabilizer, most of the technology looks like it must have come from the present day. This might have something to do with Boryokudan management hampering social progress. | |
