Runaway: A Road Adventure App Reviews

It happens in iPhone 4S, please fix the crashes ASAP! BTW I have to say that the graphic is awesome!!!!!

I am having the same problem as everyone else. Would like to enjoy the game but its impossible when it keeps crashing!

Fantastic game - far and above any other adventure game currently out there EXCEPT for one huge problem. Chapter 6 crash after seance wont let me finish the game. Very sad - hope you fix this! Otherwise, great graphics, voice acting, story, humor, adventure!

Not only did I have to start all over again after passing the third part, I cant pass the second part now either because the game refuses to let me pick up the empty coffee bag from the waste basket. If I could give this fame negative stars I would.

Thank you, guys, for bringing Runaway series to iPad! Thank you for providing pure joy and fun to players and not chasing just revenue. Thank you!

Fun game, great graphics, nice voice overs, but impossible to play without a walk through. I found one quickly on the web and have enjoyed the game and can continue when I hit a wall.

We tried this out because we enjoyed Yesterday so much. Its clear that they made a great bit of advancements in mechanics and gameplay with Yesterday, but it would be nice if they went back and implemented those changes with their past creations. Yesterday was nice in that your character would sort of teleport to the object in use, but you end up having to wait for the toon to slowly make its way over in Runaways. The observe/grab functions were quite clunky, too, in that it closes out after observation and you must again poke at the object to attempt to put it to use. Most of the time I would have to pound my finger around the area, since objects are too close together and cluttered. I also found that there were way too many useless items that served only as a distraction. I would not mind this as much if it didnt take so long to investigate and fruitlessly try to obtain the items. It was also annoying that the verbal alerts meant to inform the player that the objects were useless were recycled. Between the repeated lines and long lapses in travel, I was often distracted away from the game by the background noise of my home or something outside my window. It was in no way a game I could get lost in. Instead, I was bored and frustrated enough to actually consider spending time with my young child as an alternative to the stimulus I felt this game lacked. ;) Runaways really needed more of an editing eye, if you will. The cues necessary for knowing which items to combine and what the strategy was to be for using them in the environment were almost non-existant. This was definitely a game that required closing out in order to reference an online walkthrough, so I struggle to even call it a game. There was no real narrative, which was only amplified my the vast expanse of environment and useless items to explore. That being said, I really think that even though the developers "lost the plot" with this app, their later creation, Yesterday, showed growth in seeing through gameplay. Though I wouldnt suggest paying money for this app, their later work is so entertaining that I actually wanted more from them! However, Id classify this app in particular as, "less."

I cant finish the game it keeps crashing right after he wakes up in chp 6

I am not totally ready to throw in the towel yet--this has been a fun game! After the long cutscene with the medium and then Ginas confession, CRASH! It is kind of sucky because to try to see if I can make it works means sitting through it again!!! And again...

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME! This game does not work with iOS 7. The other game Hollywood Monsters. It would have been nice if the developer of this game would have made a notation before I purchased this game. Total disappointment.

I downloaded the app but the problem is that it dosent work on earlier devices... Can you make it work for earlier devices because i spent money on this app and now i can even use it...

Its really good game despite of some crashes.

Downloaded this game several months ago and it kept crashing at the same spot. I assumed that the problem was with my iPad 3 not being powerful enough and uninstalled the game. Today I tried installing it on my iPad Air and it wouldnt load from my computer. I went to the App Store and all of a sudden the game wants another 5 bucks to download again. The game kept crashing then wants more money to make it work. I dont think so.

Cant get past the museum, because the game keeps crashing on my iPhone 5s after a cut scene where the gangsters shoot the maintenance guy and the cross is finished being scanned in the lab. It crashed constantly earlier at the hospital also at the end of a cut scene trying to escape the hospital but somehow just by tapping randomly on the screen I was able to get past that. I have uninstalled, reinstalled and played and it still crashes at the same points in the game. And I can never get past the museum. Extremely frustrating! Other than that, the game is (so far) generally pretty good however the controls are too close to the bottom of my iPhone screen and it keeps wanting to pull up the pop up quick settings menu. Some of the characters voices are generally good, but several, including lead guys is simply awful. Have heard much better voiceovers on other games. At those points, I have to simply turn off the volume and read the subtitles to get a better gaming experience. Maybe the sequels have much better voice over work?!? Well, heres to hoping at least!

Reading reviews from over a year ago, it seems like this is a consistent problem. No update?

I want my money back!!!

I made it to the part in the museum where Brian runs off because Gina is in danger, bam I getter booted off the game. I have tried 6 times and it keeps happening. Please fix so I can continue the game? I spent $4.99 for nothing.

It crashed on me when I was to make the sounds for the alien communication device but when I go back, it no longer triggers for me. I hope I dont have to start over.

This game is one of my top favorite games. Couple of days ago I remembered I hadnt even finished it on pc because of a crash in Hopi village part. So I downloaded app and started playing and enjoyed so much. I love Pendulo Studios! BUT...the same problem that had kept me from finishing the game years ago happened again. Yep it CRASHED but this time a little further in the game. Precisely, in CHAPTER 6 in the middle of the cutscene where Gina is telling the story of Johnny the Indian. Brian says "so we dont exactly know if hes had the money." Gina says "yes we do!" and CRASH!!! Dear developers please fix this problem. As you can see in the reviews, so many others have the same problem of crashing in different parts. Please help! I want to finish this game so badly!

The screen goes black after melting the ice to escape from the mobsters. Audio works, you can tap around and still see the item indicators flash if you accidentally tap where an interactive object is but you cant see anything! I am also playing on an ipad air 2 that has NOT been jail broken. Dont buy this game until they fix it, youll be wasting your money!
