Guards too can be appeased by giving gifts, or if they catch you up to no good then their opinion of you will swing the other way and perhaps hinder your upcoming escape. Starting out I found that following the little yellow arrow that directed me to each task was a good place to begin as I got to grips with the layout of each prison, and it was good testing how far I could push the boundaries during the initial few prisons that I found myself in – how long could I push it before the guards became suspicious? If I just pop in the canteen for a second then get back to the illicit activity I was previously occupied with would the guards immediately track me down? After a few in-game days I quickly felt like a hardened criminal, knowing the routine and what I could get away with, with a good idea of what I could get away with.Ĭlicking on each little character as they each go about their own routine allowed me to interact with them and find out various stats, such as time served and their opinion of me, which could be swayed with gifts or favours indicated by a green exclamation mark bopping over their heads. Meal times, roll call and a daily exercise requirement all make up part of your day-to-day routine, with the prison going into alert if you miss any of these allotted activities. Each of the 11 prisons have their own look and feel, from the layout of the prison down to the day-to-day routine you must follow in order not to raise suspicion as you carry out your tinkering and plotting your escape. If, like me, you missed it the first time round the basic premise is a simple one – you are incarcerated and it is up to you how you go about escaping.
