Video Game Reviews of Runaway: Dream of the Turtle
Customer Review: Cliffhangers make me cry
Summary: 3 Stars
Considering the uncertainty of the game industry and the likelihood of sequels being murdered in their infancy, I haven't been this disappointed in the end of a game since the unfinished end of Still Life. Runaway II built so well, and got me so into the story - I was so excited to see what the final climax would be and then....it ended. With nothing more than a voiceover promise that the rest of the story was to come.
I sat there with my mouth hanging open while the credits rolled, as slowly I realized the story pinnacle I'd spent 16 hours working toward was never going to happen. That's not just bad game design, that's cruel and unusual punishment. If you want to save yourself some pain - don't buy Runaway II until Runaway III comes out.
Description of Runaway: Dream of the Turtle
Hawaii, an idyllic island paradise. It's the spot Brian Basco and Gina Timmins have chosen to take a well-earned vacation. An impromptu daytrip to a remote and relatively uninhabited island goes awry, however, Brian forces Gina from the plane, giving her the only working parachute. Brian luckily survives the plane?s crash landing, but Gina has disappeared, setting the stage for a highly entertaining story. Humor, hotties, hijinks and a hilarious plotline all combine to make a fantastically fun adventure in Runaway: The Dream of the Turtle, the sequel to 2003's smash-hit adventure, Runaway, A Road Adventure. In Runaway: The Dream of the Turtle, players will travel the world, from Alaska and Hawaii to the depths of the sea and the sky above. Become immersed in a tongue-in-cheek story where you'll meet a crazy cast of miscreants in order to solve a mystery too weirdly entertaining for words in this title that pays homage to all that was great about the glory days of graphical adventure games. This is a DVD and requires a DVD-drive for read/playAll games
