''Runaway 2: The Dream of the Turtle'' was published by Creator/FocusHomeInteractive SAS, developed by Péndulo Studios, S.L., and released in 2006.

At the end of ''VideoGame/RunawayARoadAdventure'', Brian and Gina finally had the time to be together on a tropical island called Mala, but the good times don't last long. One day they decide to go on a trip and fly over the island in a plane. Everything goes well until the engines suddenly catch fire and the plane makes his way down. Since there is only one parachute, Brian gives it to Gina and throws her out the plane. Brian survives the crash but he now has to find Gina once again.

His search in this 2D adventure takes him around the globe even to the icy regions of Alaska. Along the way the player will have to solve many riddles for which they will need to talk to people or find items scattered around in the environments. The player will also meet old friends from ''Runaway: A Road Adventure'' such as the hacker Sushi Douglas and many new characters are introduced as well.

!!This VideoGame contains examples of:
* AlliterativeName: Brian Basco.
* AsianAndNerdy: Joshua, who has Japanese ancestry.
* BlackAndNerdy: Professor Pierre Pignon.
** Also, Rutger, who is Jamaican.
* BlackComedyRape: Young hormonal male polar bear + Scientist in bear suit + feromons/musk from a female in heat = Some serious application of this trope.
* BookDumb: Subverted with Brian, who looks like one, but in fact is an Ivy League-graduated physicist.
* CelShading: The art style of the game is like this.
* CheeseEatingSurrenderMonkeys: Inverted. When Brian comes to Colonel, while being disguised as African-French Pierre Pingong, Colonel starts lecturing him, about how many France had great generals: Napoleon Bonaparte, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Julius Caesar and Don Quixote.]]
** Funnier in the French version, as the Colonel talk about " le Général Bonaparte, le Général De Gaulle and la grève générale" (general strike).
* CliffHanger: The game ends with Brain having [[spoiler: recovered the Trantonite]]. But they have still no idea how to actually [[spoiler: get it to the Trantorian ship]] with booth Kordsmeier, Tarantula and [[spoiler: the trantorian traitor]] being in the way.
* ColonelKilgore: Colonel, PlayedForLaughs.
* {{Determinator}}: Brian Basco will stop at nothing to find Gina.
* DistractedByTheSexy: Brian can't help to be distracted by Lokelani when she converses with him. She later [[HoneyTrap distracts the real Professor]] in the most effective way she could cook off.
* FoodAsBribe: The lemur agrees to help Brian in exchange for beer.
* FootPopping: When Lokelani kisses Brian, she raises her right leg.
* GeniusBruiser: Brian, who has a sharp mind and body-builder physique.
* {{Gonk}}: Joshua, who even doesn't look like an exact human.
* GoodAngelBadAngel: After sleeping with Lokelani, Brian's good side and bad side pop on his shoulders. They are not impersonated by an angel and and devil however.
* {{Jerkass}}:
** Archibald is a HUGE one.
** Joshua also counts, but he acts like one due to lack of social skills and childish selfishness, rather than actually nasty personality.
* HiddenDepths: nearly every character has some unexpected details or skills to them that you likely wouldn't predict by looking at them and their occupation. In addition to Brian, Joshua is a master mechanic, Kai is fluent in Hoodoo, Lokelani is a Hollywood-grade makeup artist, and even O'Connell turns out a skillful rope climber.
* HollywoodVoodoo: PlayedForLaughs. The (absolutely effective) spell to revive deceased poultry turns out to be a graphically detailed description of cooking a chicken salad. The poor bird comes back from the dead out of the sheer horror of ''all that'' potentially being done to his body if he doesn't.
* {{Homage}}: A late chapter is a extended to the the VideoGame/MonkeyIsland series.
* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: just like the first game, this one somehow seems to combine the existence of magic ''and'' aliens in one setting.
* MsFanservice: Lokelani. She works at a bar all day wearing a sexy pink bikini. Whenever Brian talks to her, she leans on the counter so he can see her cleavage. After Brian helps her, Lokelani rewards him by sleeping with him.
* MyEyesAreUpHere: Lokelani calls out Brian for staring at her breasts, but it's rather difficult for him not to do so when she's wearing a sexy pink bikini.
-->'''Lokelani:''' All you men are all the same: you're so busy looking at our cleavage you can't pay attention to what we're saying.
* ImAManICantHelpIt: Every man around Lokelani. Brian too, though, in his defense, he feels guilt for Gina after sleeping with Lokelani.
* OnlyMostlyDead: According to Kai, Lokelani's pet cockatoo ([[InsistentTerminology not a parrot]]) is not quite dead, and can be revived safely with a proper spell. Its heavily implied that it was just unconscious though.
* QuicksandSucks: Brian encounters a quicksand pit - when he sees Otto's goggles in the pit, he worries that Otto was lost in it.
* ReallyGetsAround: While conversing with Lokelani, she mentions many of her past boyfriends. There is even puzzle where she quizzes you about them in order to prove that you actually listens to what she has to say.
* RopeBridge: Brian has to cross one - a sign next to it reads "Rickety Bridge: Cross at Own Risk".
* SexyPackaging: The cover of the retail package has Brian carrying Gina over his shoulder. Gina is wearing a red bikini and we get a shot of her butt. Alternate covers show Brian carrying Gina, still in red bikini, but in his arms this time, with a MaleGaze shot of her assets.
* SpyCatsuit: Tarantula wears one. Lampshaded by Brian: when he briefly sees her in military camp, he thinks that Colonel is some kind of fetishist.
* ToiletHumour: Few times, but even then, it's hilarious.
* ToplessnessFromTheBack: Gina, in the intro cinematic.
* TropicalIslandAdventure: The first half of the game is set on a fictional tropical island in the Pacific called Mala Island, which Brian and Gina crash land at.
* WitchDoctor: Kai's grandfather, and Kai. Even if the later never officially became one.
* WordSaladTitle: At first but the meaning behind game's strange tittle is eventually explained. [[spoiler: "Dream" is what the Trantorians call the suspended animation animals are subjected to while on route to their Zoo. Each mission is subsequently named after this and the animal they are after, with the current one literally being ''The Dream Of The Turtle'']].
