Runaway: A Twist of Fate unveils itself a little more thanks to this new batch of SCREENSHOTS . This long-awaited adventure game will be released on PC and Nintendo DS at the end of 2009. Runaway "A Twist of Fate" is developed by Madrid-based studio Pendulo. It will end Brian Basco and Gina Timmings' adventures that captivated over a million players worldwide. Brian and Gina are back in a new adventure, a bit darker than the previous one but still loaded with an omnipresent humor and based on a production worth a big 2D animation film. For the first time in Runaway history, you will have the control of Brian but also of his girlfriend, Gina! Following the story line of the previous episode, A Twist of Fate is also an independent new adventure that players who have never played Runaway before will fully enjoy.
Runaway: A Twist of Fate has visually improved thanks to a new graphic engine. The game now has high resolution backgrounds, more detailed and expressive characters, and more realistic animations... The interface has also been improved and offers an inventory allowing you to check each item from every angle possible. You will also find an ingenious hint system that will guide you throughout difficult situations without giving away the solution to the puzzles.
Of course, both the particular visual style and the omnipresent humour that appealed to the players have been retained in order to make A Twist of Fate a rich episode, full of novelties and unexpected turns yet still faithful to the Runaway spirit.
Runaway « A Twist of Fate » is scheduled to be released in the fourth quarter of 2009 on PC and Nintendo DS™. If you want to freshen up your memory about what's happened before in the Runaway Saga you can read Becky's review of Runaway 1 HERE, and Looney4Labs's review of Runaway 2:The Dream of the Turtle HERE.

Thanks Carla. The screenshots look great. I love the puzzle/humor mix in this series.
It's nice to be important but it is much more important to be nice.

The first two games where such a hoot, it looks like this one will be equally as much fun especially seeing what Brian has gotten himself into, its insane  Thanks for the info, Carla, Marie

There is clearly something very, very strange going on in that facility. My favorite is the psychologist's office with the portrait of the two elderly maids and the camera/dentist's drill thing by the chair.
for posting the screenshots Carla. I am on the fence with this game. I really enjoyed Runaway but Dream of the Turtle was not one of my favorites. I would like to know how the story ends though. I think I will wait to read the Gameboomers review before I make this purchase.
