2006 point-and-click adventure game in which Brian Basco travels through exotic locations while solving puzzles ✅Significantly improved graphics compared to the first game ✅Some puzzles are logical and satisfying to solve ✅The game preserves the classic point-and-click formula, which I am a huge fan of ✅The price is good ❌The story jumps between multiple plotlines and locations, making it feel like several different stories stitched together into one ❌Many puzzles require illogical actions or the triggering of hidden events, even when I already knew the correct solution ❌The main protagonist has been made more arrogant and less likable than in the previous installment ❌The music and sound effects are terrible in this game ❌The character animations are stiff and unnatural for a game from 2006 ❌ In terms of story, characters, and humor, it is significantly worse than the first installment ❌❌Verdict: [strike] Terrible [/strike], [strike] Bad [/strike], [b] Mediocre [/b], [strike] Decent [/strike], [strike] Good [/strike], [strike] Very Good [/strike] (Rating scale for short games, retro indie simulator games, and similar) [quote]If you'd like to see more of my reviews, you can fin…

[h1][i]“It was said that you would destroy the Sith, not join them!”[/i] ~Obi-Wan Kenobi[/h1] Runaway: A Road Adventure was anything but perfect. It was cringey at times, it suffered from some terrible pixel hunting, etc. Yet, it was the right game at the right time. Together with some others (like Benoît Sokal's Syberia, for example), it was one of those games that gave the point-and-click genre support in a time of decline. It was nothing like what Nintendo did after the infamous video game crash of 1983, of course, but still, it was one of those games that helped the genre survive. It was pretty stylish, it had an interesting narrative (for a European point-and-click adventure, that is), it looked good, and it had exclusive songs with vocals (a rare thing to see back in the day). Like I said, it was a thing. And when there's a thing? A sequel is inevitable. So, ladies, gentlemen, and all the others, please welcome Runaway 2. I mean, Runaway: The Dream of the Turtle. And you know what? The intro looks promising. It's stylish, it comes with a new song (no famous singers, though; I wasn't even able to find out who Ryk-C is), and it feels exactly like what we all expected from a R…

Esta es la entrega más criticada de la saga, entiendo el porque, pero no me impide disfrutarla, algunos puzzles no tienen sentido, pero tampoco es complicado.

Lo recomiendo. La unica pega es una pequeña critica constructiva, algunos puzzles se resulven pasando por el mismo lugar que ya miraste. Pero en lo demas es muy bueno , el primero es el mejor y este no esta nada mal. pd: Necesitaran el parche de voodo para video , porque el cap 4 se corta, sino tienes el driver de video en win10x es imposible jugar.

I enjoyed the game, but i didn't like the story. You're searching for your girlfriend, but at the first apportunity you end up with another woman, and the addition of aliens feels out of place.

Man, I don't know if I'm too new age gaming or just straight up stoopid, but this aint it chief. Literally nothing is spelled out, how on earth am I supposed to know to use x and y to acquire 8 and 3 BEFORE getting 4 and then....You get the idea. Souls level point and click titles. I worry that modern games have softened my skills.
