Runaway: The Dream of the Turtle

Runaway: The Dream of the Turtle's woeful mechanics and clunky puzzle solving turn a promising adventure into a bit of a nightmare

Runaway offers a testing environment to frustrate your grey matter. And although the it's host to some of the most illogical, testing puzzles on the DS, the major plus is that it wraps itself up in a wonderfully realised universe with a lot of great video

I bought this at first because it was cheap and I love a good investigation game, but it was much better than I thought. I agree with the other reviews about it being a bit slow, but sometimes if you double click quickly your destination, it will go there instantly. It's a kind of game that makes you look for clues with great graphics and storyline, unlike Cate West: The Vanishing Files, which cost twice as much but less challenging. Sometimes it is the games with the least hype surounding it that turns out to be the best buy!

I thought this game was fantastic, really enjoyed it, yep some bits like moving around the map are a tad slow but the rest of the game is great! And really funny in some parts, the lemur especially! I know their making another game and I hope it comes out on the DS. Loved it!

Nice graphics, but this game is just too slow. When you ask the character to move from one location to another, you see an ant size character walk across a map rather than jumping to the new location. Slow, slow, tediously slow. I only played about 20% of the game before quitting.
