great hostingplain

We still don't understand why there was a cup full of slime... anyway...

Typical "Prison" game - Generic puzzles. Great time waster if you need something to do.

P-p-p-prisonnnnn

If you’re reading this, you’ve probably done at least three prison-themed games. It’s inevitable at this stage. An escape-loving friend organised this one last minute and so would have likely chosen otherwise if he could, but here we are.

Story

Break out of prison…

Puzzles

Nothing out of the ordinary in a prison break. Some searching, some number-crunching, some computing, some practical tasks.

Mise-en-scene

The cell had an expectedly dingy feel to it; the surroundings/props made it immersive enough.

Final Comments

The two of us got out with around 10 minutes to spare.

Outcome: Successful escape!

One of the poorer Prison breaks completed due to a broken lock and lack of attention by the GM. Room flowed other than a couple of issues though

value for money

Really enjoyed Escape Lives take on a classic prison game. Although a word of warning, we'd seem some of this "typical prison" puzzles in other prison games and quickly advanced through this game because of this. 

One of the downsides of Escape Live is that you're expected use the same puzzle again and again in different ways. Gets boring quickly.
