A Trip Back in Time to 1999! – Jet Force Gemini

Jet Force Gemini Review
Where's an aardvark when you need one?
Released in late 1999 and published by Rare, Jet Force Gemini was available only for the Nintendo 64. Overall, it received mostly positive reviews on its release, though sales figures didn’t reflect this and no sequel was forthcoming. 

The game's plot revolves around the three members of the Jet Force Gemini team – a human named Juno, his twin sister Vela and a dog called Lupus. Specifically, the group is attempting to defeat an evil warlord called Mizar and save the galaxy.

The basic plot of Jet Force Gemini consists of the team being split up in the opening exchanges of the game as Mizar and his army attack their spaceship. After the attack, the three have no option but to abandon their cruiser and go their separate ways. You control each of the characters in a third-person perspective as you set upon and explore different planets.

Each world has hostile inhabitants, which results in a little space combat, although the game isn’t just a blast everything in sight experience. Throughout the adventure, exploration is vital, as to progress past each stage, you must find and save prisoners known as Tribals. Additionally, you must also collect spaceship parts later in the game.
