The Escapists is a gripping unique game that deserves some attention. This game is shockingly great in ways that are actually difficult to explain. Imagine being able to experience prison life while concocting a master plan on how to escape that lifestyle. In this game you will make friends and enemies with those in your prison and experience prison from a very classic arcade feeling standpoint. While it might be hard to wrap your mind around, The Escapists was amazing in ways so unique no other game has ever achieved its level.
KeenGamer: "A good prison simulator can be a strong statement as to why we need more of them like The Escapists 2. Because they're always a great way to satisfy our itch of performing a Shawshank Redemption style escape from a high-security penitentiary."
Starting today, The Escapists is free at Epic Games Store. The free game offers run until September 30 at 11 AM Eastern. Once you claim it, it’s yours to keep.

Tired this game an wanted to put it down immediately then I continued and the idea of it really set in. I am addicted. still waiting on moving onto the last 2 prisons but gosh its really a great game. I would recommend it to anyone even slightly interested.
Played this for a few days after it finished Early Access.
It's extremely repetitive. You go through the same tasks constantly. Build up a good bit of tools, until you get caught and have to do it all over again. And you'll get caught a lot. None of the tasks you do are all that fun either.
