Just Updated FREE CONTENT UPDATE! Jingle Cells Following on from last year’s release of the free Santa’s Sweatshop content, our daring escapee elf unfortunately lost control of their sleigh mid-flight and was forced to make an emergency landing – right in the middle of the grounds of the Jingle Cells prison! Stuck doing hard time again, if you want to get home in time for the holidays you’ll need to sneak around the brand new wintery themed prison sourcing the unique items and crafting supplies that you’ll need to repair the sleigh and make another break for it! The Jingle Cells update features: • New festive themed prison to escape • 20 new items and craftables • New leaderboard to make your mark on About the Game You’ve landed yourself in prison again, and your only chance is to engineer an escape by any means necessary. How you do it is up to you! Why not cause a prison riot? Or dig a tunnel right under the walls of the prison? Or even steal a guard uniform to blend in with your captors? The Escapists is a unique prison sandbox experience with lots of items to craft and combine in your daring quest for freedom. Life in prison will keep you on your toes with the strict rules that you’ll have to break. The guards are out to stop any escape attempts, so you’ll have to avoid suspicious behaviour by attending roll calls, working a prison job and hiding your stolen craftables. Escaping is what you do best, and you’ll have to prove your skills in a variety of challenging prisons from across the world. Become an Escapist now! Features • 10 Fully operational prisons complete with routines to give you a flavour of how it *really* is inside! • 10 Separate job opportunities for you to sink your teeth into… If you have the knowledge to earn and hold down these employment paths of course! • 185+ Unique Items for you to seek out and perhaps even craft useful items with. (Team17 fully endorse the use of various weapons such as ‘shivs’, ‘nunchucks’ and ‘maces’ – within a fictional setting of course!). • Various Favour types for you to tackle offered up by inmates – You wouldn't want to go upsetting them now, would you? • Highly opinionated and incredibly funny inmates and guards to keep you on your toes as well as providing entertainment! • Multiple escape routes for you to work out and achieve the title of ‘The Escapist’! • Multiple save slots so you can have more than one escape attempt on the go! • Steam Achievements to strive for. • Steam Leaderboards – Once you have escaped see how you fared against other successfully escaped players! • Prison Editor – Create from scratch your very own confinement masterpiece and share it with the community!
