+rigel-engine (Duke Nukem II reimplementation)
+
+RigelEngine is a reimplementation of the game Duke Nukem II,
+originally released by Apogee Software in 1993 for MS-DOS. RigelEngine
+works as a drop-in replacement for the original executable: It reads
+the game's data files and plays just like the original, but runs
+natively on modern operating systems and is written in modern C++
+code.
+
+If you're looking for the shareware data files, they're available here:
+https://archive.org/download/msdos_DUKE2_shareware/DUKE2.zip
+
+Compared to running the original in an emulator, RigelEngine offers
+many modern enhancements and usability improvements.
+
+The executable and man page are called "RigelEngine".
