The Escapists 2

The Escapists 2 is a prison escape simulator where the day is scheduled, and freedom must be earned through cunning. The player does the work, attends classes, and quietly prepares a plan. Escape requires preparation: hide tools, break through a wall, get a uniform, bypass security. Prisons differ in their structure and procedures, so the same technique does not work everywhere. In addition to the single-player game, there are joint escapes, where accomplices help each other. The design is deliberately simple, but there are enough details: cameras, searches, fights. The community has released a ton of additional prisons. Work and activities provide money and things without which escape cannot be prepared. The daily routine requires planning time for sleeping and eating. Security keeps order, so it is better to do some things in the shade. In joint escapes, accomplices share responsibilities and help in difficult places. Prisons differ in their routines, so the escape plan has to be built anew each time. Tools are assembled in parts, and hiding them is more difficult than obtaining them. Some of the guards are bribed, and some help in exchange for a favor. Escape is more fun with company, and the roles can be divided. Outside of work, there are activities that provide escape skills. The daily routine limits time. Prisons vary in design. Escapes together are more fun. In addition to the routine, there are part-time jobs that provide money for tools. Escape requires a plan: where to dig, how to cut the bars, and how to fool the cameras. Miscalculations cost days in a punishment cell. For those who like to plan small adventures, the game is suitable.
