Horrible game. Stay away if possible
Typically, game developers would learn from their successes and failures in their previous game(s), and make some changes to their next title. It seemed like Pendulo didn't, and pretty much did the same thing as they did with 'Runaway'. If you were frustrated by extreme linearity of the puzzle solving 'Runaway', you'll get more of it in this game. If you disliked Brian Basco's bland personality (and the accompanying bad voice acting), you'll hate him even more here. If you expect to see more of Gina, well...you won't. (Seriously.) While the road adventure story in 'Runaway' was a bit formulaic, the plot in 'Runaway 2' became ludicrous. It seemed like 'Runaway 2' tried to be more like 'Broken Sword' by offering a globe-trotting adventure. However, 'Runaway 2' failed to provide groundedness to make the story believable and enjoyable. For me, 'Runaway 2' was buggy. Any cutscene or playable scenes featuring snowfall would slow down the game dramatically to an unplayable state. I needed to install a third-party forced window mode patch in order to finish the game. All that was for naught as the ending was disappointing and unsatisfying because the story is incomplete! As a game trilogy, 'Runaway' can really do without 'Runaway 2' because you don't really need to play it in full to enjoy 'Runaway 3'. But that's for another review...
