Press

  • "IGN (EDITOR'S CHOICE): 9.0/10"

    — IGN.com

  • "A triumph of DIY adventure development and a marvelous feat of interactive storytelling. For those with even the slightest inclination toward retro adventures, indie gaming, or science-fiction storytelling, it is a must-play and sets a new standard for independent debuts and reminds us just how rewarding one young developer's labor of love can be. Effective, impactful storytelling may be the hardest part of game design to get right—and seeing how right he gets it tells me that Joshua Nuernburger will be a part of the future of this genre for some time to come."

    — Adventure Gamers

  • "A largely flawless and engrossing experience - something more reminiscent of a gripping, page-turning bestseller than what adventure gaming has come to represent. In trimming away the fat and crafting mythologies, characters, and mysteries so immersive it's difficult to end play sessions, Gemini Rue has re-injected a heavy dose of something that's been missing from the genre: the sense of adventure."

    — Games Radar

  • "Without a doubt, this is already one of the best adventure games of 2011; visually, aurally and thematically stunning. A phenomenal achievement."

    — Alternative Magazine Online

  • "This is just insanely brilliant adventure gaming."
