You were part of the Free German Youth, read Marx and Engels and have always been good GDR citizens. Pictures of Honecker and Lenin adorned the door frames of your living rooms. But your upbringing to become socialist personalities failed.For half a year you have been plagued by doubts. You long for freedom and the big wide world. That’s why you decided to flee the GDR. For months you have been planning your crime together. In a house cellar you start digging a tunnel to finally fulfill your dream of a self-determined life in the West.

A review of three of the games at Final Escape: Robot Paranoia, Prison Break and Steampunk Puppeteer. Three good games with Robot and Puppeteer having amazing set design and theatre while Prison Break had an older feel but stronger puzzles. Robot and Prison Break also had a fantastic sense of exploration.
Trapped in a prison, but we know there’s a way out. We only need to work together, so grab a spoon and let’s get digging.
