About the Game

The Ultimate Prison Sandbox!

Risk it all to breakout from the toughest prisons in the world. Explore the biggest prisons yet, with multiple floors, roofs, vents and underground tunnels.
You’ll have to live by the prison rules, attending roll call, doing prison jobs and following strict routines; all the while secretly engineering your bid for freedom!
Your prison escape antics will take you from the frosty Fort Tundra, a train hurtling through the desert, and even to the final frontier!
Escape Team Assemble!

Unite with up to 3 friends to create the ultimate escape crew and engineer the wildest escapes yet! Jump online or gather round on a couch to prepare for your sneaky adventures. By working together you’ll be able to create even more elaborate and daring plans.
Feeling competitive? Dive into the versus mode and show that you’ve got the skills to break out of any prison faster than your friends can. If all else fails, settle your rivalry in the court yard with a prison punch up!
Create YOUR Con!

It’s time to make your prisoner truly yours. Choose from a massive array of customisations to make your character unique to you. It’s important to look stylish whilst you mastermind your escape.
Craft your Escape!

Being in prison forces you to be creative and work with the limited tools at your disposal. You’ll have to combine everyday objects like soap and socks to craft new weapons and tools to help you achieve your goal. Steal forks from the cafeteria to chip a tunnel in your room, and craft a poster from magazines and duct tape to hide the evidence. You’ll soon learn that duct tape solves (almost) everything!
Prepare for a fight!

The Escapists 2 introduces a brand new combat system to make every prison brawl more exciting and interactive. You’ll have to block and tie together chains of attacks whilst strafing around your locked on targets to gain the upper hand in combat. Make sure your visit the gym first to build up those muscles!
New ways to escape!

As the prisons get tougher you’re going to have to get more creative with your escape plans. There’s a ton of options to tackle almost any prison escape.
Construct a clink!

With the Prison Map Editor, it’s your turn to construct a prison worthy of housing the toughest inmates! It includes all the rooms, fences and guard dogs you need to build a prison that’s as hard as your imagination makes it – no duct-tape required.
You can pick up those prison blueprints and start crafting your own creations through the Custom Prisons option on the main menu, and when you’re ready you can show the world by sharing them through Steam Workshop where you can download subscribe to fellow architects’ lock-ups – all custom maps can be played either solo or in both local and online multiplayer!

**A great game, both solo and co-op!**
The game boasts plenty of maps, allowing for differing strategy and gameplay, with unique environments and escapes.
The game boasts well designed maps that dont feel empty nor cramped, along with a well stocked library of craftable items, cosmetics, quests and scenery, making every session enjoyable and non-grindy.
The goal of the game is to ofcourse, escape prisons. Every map has multiple ways to get out, fitting the maps environment and setting, some with a larger touch of humor, like shooting yourself from a canon ;). You CAN search up how to escape online, but I find figuring out how to get out via the hints scatterd throughout the map, comprised of arrows, notes in tucked away rooms, dialogue, quests and the crafting menu to be much more enjoyable. Whether you simply want to beat up the entire prison, plan a methodical escape or simply bust through a wall, this game along with its low price point is a great purchase.
The art style combined with the sound design makes the game beautiful as well, while requiring a very low end PC.
If you want to get a preview of some gameplay before purchasing (which you should) you should check out Blitz and BaronVonGames Co-Op series of the game, and if you need tutorials, TheRealGuruMatt is a great channel for that!
Also, sidenote, if you find yourself enjoying the game, I heavily reccomend the DLC's, especially the Wicked Ward DLC. The map along with the escapes offer a great experience.
Game is too hard for newcomers, yes it was all my skills issues.
On top of that sometimes the game get buggy when connection is unstable there's multiple time of prison break impossible to happen because of this bug. It take us multiple games just to diagnose what was the problem.
This bug where the person that have been having connection issues in any given time on the game, will cannot be able to escape later from the prison in the end. Due to some interaction with the objects cannot be met or happens.
Overall not recommended to people who are new to the genre such as myself

Really fun! I really liked escaping some prisons and its a major overhaul of the first escapists
Great prison breaking experience, felt like I was really escaping real prison.
Peak Game, Especially the part where you escape.
10/10!
One of the best game i've ever played. Best experience was playing it with my friend. Totally worth it to buy. Thanks Team 17
Game of my childhood. Realy recomend if you like chalenges and making strategies.
Its remarkable how a guard wont even lift a finger for doing heinous acts to your fellow prisoner. but if i put soap in my socks its a lockdown.
It's simple. It's fun. It has co-op, and local co-op. My wife and I have had fun playing around in the prison scenarios. However, the game does very little to teach you how to play it. Even the crafting menu is just icons - no names or descriptions. So if you don't know what something is or how to use it, you pretty much have to go to the internet. Having said that, we still had fun building a massive tunnel for no real reason.
The game could use a good polish, but it won't be getting that. If you can look past the rough edges and learn as you go, the game offers some good fun.
The Escapists 2 is a fun and challenging prison-break game that combines strategy, crafting, and humor. With diverse prisons, creative escape methods, and co-op multiplayer, it offers endless replayability. Perfect for puzzle and strategy fans looking for a unique twist. 🌟🌟🌟🌟
+ a fun game where you should to think or the bad cops will come and beat you into a coma. or dogs..
i played both alone and with a friend, and you know what, its much more fun with friends
- a couple of times we had a situation when the necessary item for crafting did not appear, that is, at all, and because of this we had to restart the prison
Fun game not enough actuall prison levels none of those haunted house n circus maps
“Gotta love a good escape with your buddies! You can dig your way out or find another route—who’s gonna make it out first? 😂
Have fun waiting 17 days for some item that you need to randomly spawn in a desk. Fuck this game. Fuck the people who made this game. Fuck anyone who likes this game.
The Escpaists 2 is just one of those games you could spend hours and so on solely going room by room with your friends avoiding the good guys lol, get ahold of a comfy cushion on your chair for hard mode. 10/10 would recomend.
Extremely fun adventure-strategy game. There's a LOT of ways to escape, and you'll have to be patient.
Great solo, great with a friend watching you, great with friends - it's just a good time all around.
Goes on sale a lot. BIG reccomend.
this game wasnt really allat when i first played escapists one, but ive warmed up to both over time
just get your ass beat and accept that your bad at the combat
I open up a local game and wanted to play with my controller but all the time id get splitscreen PLEASE ADD A OPTION TO TURN IT OFF, second i dont blame the devs but my solution was open a public lobby and i forgot to add a pin, some people joined and they all started to attack me outta of a sudden, i tried attacking back but they were a bit good and alot lucky and i got my ass woop all the time, play it with this on your mind.
worth it if its on sale
good and fun with friends but gets slightly repetitive later
Very brain using game only the big brains of the big brainers can beat every prison without help
played this for prob 200 hours on xbox before getting it on pc, i would highly recommend this game, my only real complaint with it is the dogs are kind of annoying, also the map editor is pretty limiting (only 2 themes, you can only use 2 floors + roof & vents), but other than that, this game is so good imo. 9.5/10.
Very fun to play both with friends and singleplayer.
This had the potential to be a very good game but there is one major problem, some escapes can only be done in singleplayer and some only in multiplayer and guess what, you dont know wich one is wich until you are at the end of a game, and thats when it tells you that you have wasted your time(wich can be a couple of hours per map).
If i buy a game that says singleplayer/co op i expect to be able to beat it using either of the methods not having a part of the game locked off if playing singleplayer or having to kick a player out so only one of you can complete the escape. Or the developers could have spent couple of minutes to write next to the escape options which ones can you complete in what mode, only because of the lazines of the developers to impliment such a simple quality of life feature am i giving it a thumbs down.
I didn't find it enjoyable, felt kinda like doing chores, just not a game for me.
The craft tree is pretty cool, but the blending in and then sneaking about to get items feels like a slog. I imagine it's much better in multiplayer because you can chat while you do the 'boring stuff'.
commit crime in jail and not get punished. very good strategic game and is very good and cheap. 10/10 would definatly recommened especialy if u have friends
Awsome game, bought ut for 6 dollers Nikos Island is a must Instal DLC It saved my life

how to scream once the heat gets to 100 and you have items that you need to rely heavily to escape
If you are thinking about buying this game, don't hesitate!
It's really really intuitive, not really difficult but you should pay attention to your materials and what you can do with them. Now, the real experience of this game comes with friends (you can play with random people but of course it's not the same), this way you have to work together to fight guards, get crafting stuff and eventually escape the prison.
Maybe I'm a bit biased cuz I used to play this game a lot with a friend on my xbox when we were younger but now that we managed to buy it on steam I can say that the experience is wonderful, give it a try ;)
Verry fun, but lots of moders... the game is easily modable. but super fun!!! my laptop couldnt handle it but my desktop could.
I would tap one of the Security Guards they were looking a little extra thick that day so i had to slap that gyatt and I ended up getting tackled by her 10/10 game would recommend
Good game, fun to play with friends. would recommend getting game on sale incase you don't enjoy the more lengthy aspects.
Really fun if you have no idea what you are doing and if you have 1-3 friends to play with. Very cool 2D game with good controls and gameplay.
Fun and intense, huge upgrade from the first game. Would recommend

Game's fun for some time but it does get boring after a while. I bought this game while it was on discount, it quickly got boring and was a waste of money. It's quite competitive, it is just breaking out of prison every single time. I already played the mobile version of this game, completed everything so there isn't anything I can do in this game. If this is your first time playing this game then it should be pretty fun.
very enjoyable game had fun digging and diggin and digging. 8.5/10
Super fun, nostalgic to the good old PaulSauresJr days

The Escapists is a fun little experience. The prison-escape sandbox is a great idea for a game and the idea is executed well. However, the major sticking point of this game is the repetitiveness of the gameplay. Every prison escape follows the same broad strokes and it becomes a bit boring after a while. The unique escapes are a really good idea, however, which adds a nice bit of spice to the formula. I'm not too hot, however, on some escapes being locked behind multiplayer. The transport prisons are a fun bit little bit of something else, though they don't really match the quality of the regular prisons. I think I'd cut some of the prisons and make the game a nice little 10-hour jaunt. All in all, if you like a bit of strategic gameplay and the prison-escape genre, the game will make a nice little pickup. 3/5
game good life good solo good game good again and eat banana
The combat is bad enough I want the first games combat back
this game is straight bullshit never buy it ong its so fucking boring and ass is such a lost of money this is so mf shit
great offline game, and nostalgic to play.
Hard, but satisfying at times to get away.
Its fine variety is cool
The Escapists 2 is a delightful and engaging puzzle game that combines strategy, creativity, and resourcefulness in a unique setting: prison. As a player, you are tasked with escaping from various prisons, each more challenging than the last. While the game might seem like a simple escape simulation at first, it is, in fact, a complex puzzle-solving experience that requires critical thinking, planning, and adaptability. The Escapists 2 stands out not only for its fun, open-ended gameplay but also for how it helps players improve their puzzle-solving skills.
The premise of The Escapists 2 is straightforward: you are imprisoned and must find a way to escape. However, the path to freedom is never simple. The game is designed with multiple layers of complexity that unfold as you progress through the different levels, and this is where the puzzle aspect shines. Each prison is a carefully crafted maze, and players must figure out how to navigate their environment, gather resources, and outsmart both guards and fellow inmates.
One of the most rewarding aspects of The Escapists 2 is the way it challenges players to think critically and solve puzzles. At the start of each level, you are given minimal resources and must rely on your wits to formulate an escape plan. This could involve anything from digging tunnels and creating makeshift tools to acquiring keys or crafting disguises. Each decision is a piece of a larger puzzle, and the satisfaction of solving one problem often leads to new challenges and twists, keeping you on your toes.
The game encourages players to think creatively, as there is no single correct way to escape. Whether you're planning a stealthy escape or staging a more aggressive breakout, the possibilities are endless, and the solutions often require lateral thinking. The Escapists 2 helps players understand the importance of looking at problems from different angles and experimenting with various approaches, which is an invaluable skill in any puzzle-solving scenario.
Additionally, the game’s use of time and resource management adds another layer to the puzzles. Each in-game day has a set schedule—morning roll call, meals, exercise time, and more—which restricts when and where you can complete certain tasks. Balancing these limited windows of opportunity while maintaining a low profile adds an element of strategy to your puzzle-solving. You must carefully plan and execute each move, considering how your actions will affect your overall escape plan. This need for efficient time management and prioritization is a skill that extends beyond the game and can be helpful in real-life situations that require organization and careful planning.
The Escapists 2 also rewards players for trial and error, allowing them to experiment with different strategies to see what works. This process of failing and learning is integral to developing problem-solving abilities. Sometimes, you’ll find yourself making mistakes, getting caught by guards, or failing to escape on the first try, but each failure presents an opportunity to reassess your approach and try again with new knowledge. It teaches players to remain persistent and resourceful, emphasizing that the process of solving a puzzle is just as important as the solution itself.
Finally, The Escapists 2 features a variety of prisons, each with unique layouts and challenges. The diverse environments force players to adapt their strategies to suit different situations, pushing their puzzle-solving skills to new heights. The variety in levels and the freedom to approach challenges in different ways ensures that no two playthroughs are exactly the same, keeping the puzzle-solving experience fresh and engaging.
In conclusion, The Escapists 2 is a masterful puzzle game that not only provides hours of entertainment but also helps players improve their problem-solving and critical thinking abilities. By forcing players to plan, adapt, and think outside the box, the game sharpens key puzzle skills in a fun and engaging way. Whether you're a fan of puzzle games or someone looking to enhance your cognitive abilities, The Escapists 2 is a must-play experience that challenges both your mind and your creativity.
