Prisoners! We need your assistance!Prisoners!
We need your help! You've bravely spent hours escaping the various prisons and because of your experience we are now sure you can help us out with some feedback.
So grab your duct tape and a cup of molten chocolate, and get ready to give us your opinions about the game's prisons so far.
As always, we're grateful that you're taking the time to help us so the survey contains an option to take part in a prize draw. Everyone who enters will have a chance to win one of three amazing The Escapists loot bags (we stole them off the guards). At the end of the survey, you'll be asked to provide your email address so if you win we can contact you for more details.
Also, if you want to join Team17's usability crew and help us out with more games, you can register here - http://www.team17.com/usability/
The survey should take about 5-10 minutes to complete. However, there are some optional questions so completion will take longer if you choose to tell us lots.
Here's the survey - https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1BEFLnnCMYYipWQyIRYsV2Q9PFBlCfFqLfo9Q0ccDG28/viewform
If you experience any problems with the survey, let me know in the comments.
And thank you from the bottom of my tiny The Escapists heart :)

[ 2016-04-08 12:34:03 CET ] [ Original post ] The Escapists provides the opportunity of experiencing a light-hearted insight into everyday prison life and, as is the case with all inmates, the main objective is escape! While under the careful watch of the guards, players will need to go about their daily duties clandestinely secreting useful objects from under their captors’ noses. Potential escapees will learn how to craft seemingly innocuous items into useful tools and even weapons as well as using them to execute cunning diversionary tactics.
Players will need to learn when to keep in line, utilising their time sensibly as they develop their own personal plans of escape. Learning the prison’s daily routines and spotting opportunities are all part of life behind bars. Working out potential routes and even misdirecting guards soon become second nature.
Whilst remembering to attend roll-call, holding down their job and keeping their fellow inmates on side, players are can also benefit from advancing their character's statistics through various means including boosting their intellect and exercising regularly. Balance mundane routine with careful planning to attain your ultimate goal - escape and freedom!
Features
- 8 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!).
