Fun game if you're looking to blow an hour or so. It was fun but once you escape, I'm not sure the re-playability is there.

I escaped, took me some time because messing up and having to dig all over again, but I guess that's prison life. Fun experience for the price, not much to add it's literally just a decent game loop of farming selling and buying and digging your way out. I experienced no big issues while playing, so I would say I got my €5 worth, great time killer (so is prison I guess)

So I went through this game, playing slowly while completing achievements. The game itself is not bad, but there are some bugs.: 1. After lunch, some prisoners disappear from their cells 2. Not all objects rise. 3. If you are caught, you will have to dig from the very beginning, but the tile does not break (you have to restart the game) There are 2 currencies in the game - money and toilet paper. For money, you increase the size of your camera and you can buy various furniture and objects, thereby increasing your reputation. You use toilet paper to improve your skills and buy food. To get all the achievements, you need to play 10-12 hours of real time, and the game itself can be completed in 2 hours. Also, a very important point is that after completing the game, the entire progress of the game is reset, so do not rush to escape, if you need achievements, get them first, and then finish the game. A one-time game, passed and forgot.

Very fun game, pretty much a carbon copy of "A game about digging a hole" but it does have a unique feature where you try and not get caught by prison guards trying to escape, overall a 7/10, my main issue being the end of the game feeling random things thrown together just to increase run time and explain the letters you get during each morning

ACHIEVEMENT HUNTERS: Back up your save BEFORE you escape ( before you go up the Ladder ), as once you escape it wipes your save and it'll make it a pain to go through and get the rest of the achievements like Idler which requires you to be in Prison for 28 days which is 11 hours real time (24 minutes per Day) and if you tab out of the game it PAUSES the time, so you literally need to idle in-game for 11 hours and the Basketball one as you don't get access to the Basketball Court until quite far in to the dig. Silly little simulator game. Completed it (not 100%'d achievements yet) in 2.2 hrs. It's by no means a AAA title but for less than a fiver it's a good game for a few hours of fun, dig a hole, escape from prison. Money is pretty pointless outside of a few achievements, toilet roll is what's important tho. Need that to upgrade your stuff, the main two I'd recommend 100% out is the shovel and rope/shoes (cell nearest yours to the right) as it makes you go hella faster. Dynamite is pretty pointless, but Glowsticks are very much needed so you might want to upgrade your backpack a bit as well (cell nearest the door to the canteen in front of you). Don't go into it expecting a master piece for 5 quid and you'll have fun. I don't exp. any game breaking bugs or performance issues but that'll vary depending on your setup I guess.
