Summary:
"Gemini Rue (formerly known as Boryokudan Rue) is an intense adventure set 
in a bleak future dominated by the corrupt Boryokudan crime syndicate. 
Players assume the roles of two very different characters: Azriel Odin, an 
ex-assassin searching for a defector from the Gemini system, and 
"Delta-Six," a hospital inmate whose memory has been wiped by mysterious, 
Big Brother types. As fate brings the two men together, players explore a 
world where life is cheap, identities are bought and sold, and a simple 
quest for redemption can change an entire galaxy's fate."

I'm finding this to be a very good old school game, like a fun cross between 
The Dig and Blade Runner (remember those?).

It's a bit of a shock and quite strange to be playing a game that has DOS 
looking graphics (which does not bother me at all) but behave like modern 
operating systems.  One exemple is the ability to drag and drop text (yes, 
text!) between two different interfaces within the game - like computer 
terminals and your cell phone, for instance.  I'm not too far into it yet 
but can safely recommend it to anyone who misses the good old 
lucasarts/sierra days.
