The Escapists 2 Reviews

I love putting my friends and family into this game with the character creator. Punching your best friend to get their key when they are made into a guard is hilarious.

Tried to get into it but feels very streamlined and soul-less in contrast to the original game. Should be a sandbox

If u have a friend this game becomes funny but if u dont have any friends sorry dude it's fuckin' boring

Refunded, unplayable, game frozen when you join any map, only the timer works, cannot press any key and do anything, i don't want to pass 2 hours trying to fix something unfixable.

the escapist 2?? more like, more like the escapists poo OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO they didn't see that one coming. Peak game.

This game is hella fun for anything you want to do, weather it's wanting to beat people up, stealth around, or speedrun.

pretty meh, the escapes felt a bit railroaded and it got a bit boring after our third level (we tried each difficulty and there wasn't that much difference between them)

10/10 Gameplay loop multiplayer: upgrade strength beat up guards and keep switching off the generator, when it becomes night and your friend tells you to sleep DO NOT LISTEN you are doing the most useful thing in the game Recommend this game, spent more time in prison editor than in the actual game, Devs, update prison editor we need more (underground)floors and items, I don't want to keep having to look through the workshop to find some genius who puts posters on walls and has underground stuff

I played it with a friend, it is very funny if you have friends, alone it can be pretty boring, but it is still good though. I sometimes dropped the soap, it hurted a bit

Just finished Area 17 and U.S.S. Anomaly and I can say without a shadow of a doubt that this game is super fun. The first Escapists game felt a bit clunky and in my experience prison escapes were incredibly hard. Maybe they weren't so hard per se, but rather that the game did not communicate escape plans properly, so you would almost certainly screw up in some part unless you were reading a guide about it. They solved it all in this game. The tutorial does a superb job at explaining the main basics to escape prisons, but what really makes you get good at escaping are the brand new Transport Prisons - These prisons only last a day and you should escape them as soon as possible while avoiding the guards. Here you'll learn in real practice how to beat them up, how to craft and how to gather items to escape in real prisons. My favorite prison has got to be Rattlesnake Springs, not only I loved the whole Western style to it, but also the fact that the escape routes are super creative but not difficult. Back in the previous game you usually had to dig a long hall and keep placing supports to escape via digging. In this prison there's a whole mine beneath it, so all you have to do is to dig into the mine itself, break a few walls and you will find a tunnel that leads directly to the exit. The diffculty curve for the prisons are something that I actively complained in the previous game, and now I'm actively praising in this game - They did an incredible job. Haven't played myself with another friend but it is so damn cool that there are multiplayer escapes, not only it encourages playing the game with your friends but also it is another new route for escaping in the game. And damn, most multiplayer escapes are really thought of, like that UFO escape in Area 17! I kinda wish I could do that one escape on my own haha I would say that my only pet peeve of this game is the cringey Youtuber names that you cannot change in any way. I get it, it helps getting more people into the game but God... It breaks my immersion while I'm playing and out of a sudden a guard with the name "DiddyDisciple" appears, at least let me turn it off or something. Still, an incredible game that I recommend for just about anyone that wants a new unique experience. Prison escaping is a genre that I love, kinda wish there were more (good) games like it.
