Colorful graphics, funny story, puzzles were actually logical 98% of the time. Only had to look up the solution a couple of times. A good ending to the trilogy.

Nice puzzles, not as hard as in Deponia Nice jokes, some decisions and twists really made me laugh I liked Road Adventure very much, this one recalled me of a great time I had while I was playing it

Runaway: A Twist of Fate concludes the Runaway trilogy, giving it a worthy ending. There are already plenty of good reviews, so I'll just leave some short remarks. As for the trilogy, this is by far it's best part. Part 1 had absolutely awful puzzles, while Part 2 although it had better puzzles, lacked pacing and failed in the story (telling) department. A Twist of Fate furthermore increased the puzzle quality and...

Wow, looking back my other reviews for the prior installations of the series - Runaway: A Road Adventure and Runaway: Dream of the Turtle - and comparing, my jaw dropped for this one. The last time that I checked, Runaway series were a train wreck consisting of badly scrambled plots, annoying character stereotypes and painfully complicated gameplay. Playing the third and the last game in the series - Runaway: A Twist...

My Playtime: 6h (finished the game) Intro Runaway: A Twist of Fate is the third title of the Runaway series, a point-and-click trilogy about a couple named Brian and Gina. In this episode, you'll find a way to rescue Brian and save the couple from the trouble that they encountered. This game is divided into six chapters with different playable characters from time to time. Pros: - Hint system - A lot of cutscenes...

Like so many others, I wish there was a thumb-sideways recommendation. This game has a lot going for it, and it is certainly not a "bad" game....there were just too many niggling issues that added up to a generally poor impression for me. Pros - Good graphics - Good music - Good dialogue (well, it's not exceptional, but it's not awful either) - Smooth interface Cons - Puzzles are...

This game is a bit dated, having been release back in 2009. So I will discuss both what it was at the time of release, and how it plays in 2023. A bit of history... Mid-1990s were the heyday of point & click adventure games, or "quests" as they're sometimes called. They were in fact so popular, that in the late 1990s they were the pioneers of the FMV gaming, with Hollywood budgets for the top tier games. However as...

Runaway: A Twist of Fate, is the third and final (as of right now) entry into the Runaway game trilogy. The story, while leaping ahead a bit in time from the cliffhanger ending of Runaway: Dream of the Turtle, can be considered a direct sequel since it wraps up the events from that game. If you have played either of the other two games, which is recommended if you want to know the full story, then you will be...

The twist is that they somehow fixed the series, but was it just in time? Firstly, Runaway: A Twist of Fate is the third and latest entry in the Runaway series, the point-and-click adventure series by Pendulo Studios where you follow Brian Basco - a shy physics nerd turned into a confident adult capable to stand up for himself - and his attractive girlfriend, Gina Timmins, in their Hollywood-like adventures which...
