A Unique, Gripping Escape from Alcatraz 1954 Alcatraz is one of those games that completely pulls you in with its setting and story. The whole vibe is straight out of a classic prison break film, with you playing as a convict trying to escape from the infamous Alcatraz prison. The historical setting adds a cool layer of depth, and it really feels like you’re in the 1950s with the gritty, noir-inspired atmosphere. What I loved most about this game was the mix of puzzles and choices. You’ve got to think your way out of tricky situations, and the choices you make matter. Whether you’re playing as the convict or his wife on the outside trying to help him, you’re constantly making decisions that affect the story’s direction. It’s got that classic point-and-click adventure feel, but with a more serious and immersive tone. The art style is really fitting too—simple, but it works well to set the mood. It’s a game that’s easy to get lost in, and the story keeps you hooked until the very end. If you’re into narrative-driven games with a good mix of suspense and strategy, 1954 Alcatraz is definitely worth a try.

I have played this game on and off for years, and just haven't been able to BEAT it. I enjoy the game for the most part, but I think this one has sailed it's ship for me. If you like point and click adventure games, puzzle games, and detective games, then this is for you.

The literal first achievement of the game that's literally just for playing the game has a 38% achievement rate. So I think a lot of people get the game in bundles and literally never play it. Store page makes it look pretty boring but its actually pretty good. Timelines a bit confusing but the switching between characters is pretty nice beyond that.
