The Escapists,The Escapists (Xbox One) Review

By Daniel Bischoff

Beat-downs and break-outs.

Loads of gamers would probably like to leave behind the illness or confinement they feel in the real world, and video games themselves allow that, but something about The Escapists irks me. It’s not that the title doesn’t offer scores of items, environments, characters, questlines, oppressive guards, and mundane work-out equipment, or the likes of one seriously…

  • Strong graphics, sound, and map design
  • Diminutive prisoners with tough-sounding names
  • Variety of different means of escape
  • Lacking tutorial
  • Shivs, shivs everywhere
  • Different day jobs, day/night cycle
  • Interacting with both prisoners and cops/administration
