Advantages: Godd fun and creative puzzles

Disadvantages: none if you have the time

Runaway a Road Adventure starts of with Brian getting ready to move home and get prepared for university. In the run up to this there are little problems which end up as big problems unless you can solves them. There are clues scattered all over the place and in the most unlikely of places.

There is a significant amount of humour which helps get you through the puzzles which are slightly harder than normal. You can play the game at three different levels depending on your experience of this type of game. It did take me a little time to get into the mindset of the writer which is a big advantage in solving the problems and puzzles.

The game map is quite big since you can pretty much go anywhere, but a lot of places are red herrings. As the story unfolds and puzzles are solved you do feel yourself getting more and more involved with Brian and the strange array of people he encounters on his quest.

The graphics although a bit cartoon are refreshing and add that bit of sparkle to the game, not that the game is anywhere near being dull. You can save the game at any point and go have a coffee while you ponder over your current dilemma. It is available in various good computer stockists and the price does vary quite a lot to search around for the bargain. It is a really good game, and one you will return to many a time in your long endeavour to get Brian to college......................eventually we hope.

Summary: A really good fun game which is quite absorbing.
