Video Games

Point and click graphic adventures are not my favorite type of video game. I still play them every now and then, however. One such game I just played was Gemini Rue. It is a sci-fi story set in 2229 with multiple characters under your control. In addition to the usual adventure game fare, there were some action scenes featuring handgun combat. I wasn't enthused about the shootouts but thankfully there weren't many of them. The game is set on Earth and on a secret off-world facility called Center 7. The primary character is Azriel Odin, who is looking for his brother Daniel. In parallel, you control Delta-Six, a detainee in Center 7. Along the way, there is a twist or two and the game ends with a satisfying conclusion. The graphics are somewhat primitive but it fits with the game's retro look and feel. If you like adventure games at all, I'd say Gemini Rue is worth your time.
