Sep 19, 2020A decent improvement to the original game with even better soundtracks, prison features, and escape methods. Unfortunately, the experience is made much worse (on PC) with the countless bugs, lag, connectivity issues, and multiplayer action delay.

Jan 31, 2021Fun game. A bit boring if playing alone though.
However the fact that it is on the simpler side makes it a good family game. -
Mar 17, 2023would prefer the first one. .

Jul 25, 2022Some major improvements with this sequel. But overall the same boring game play after some games.
The big plus of the Escapists 2 is the multiplayer, the more the merrier. -
May 25, 2023Le jeu est tres sympa entre amis on s’amuse bien. Le gameplay ne change pas beaucoup d’un niveau a l’autre mais il y’a beaucoup de fin original

Aug 23, 2017I put in about 113 hours on the first one on Xbox and felt like they were trying to expand the game a lot here. It's good if you played the first one, but probably better if you didn't. The only thing I would say is wait to pick it up in a Steam sale if you own Escapists, and buy it now if you don't own the first game.

Feb 27, 2021Not bad but not good too do not buy it if you want to play solo it can be really boring when playing solo but if you are going to play co-op with your friends then you can buy it

Jan 11, 2018The Escapists 2 expands the idea of the original title and goes beyond; it packs a lot of prisons from which we can find some original and sometimes funny ways of escape. And this time, we can bring friends to the party, since it has cooperative and versus modes.

Sep 27, 2017I never sat down with The Escapists 2 without smiling. Even during its rough first hours, its personality and a keen sense of humor kept me going. And as you discover its layers of challenge, intrigue, and variety, you'll be hooked. By turning the routine into a steady and engaging flow of progress, and by spicing things up with historical and fantastical locations, The Escapists 2 gets tremendous mileage out of its premise. Then you have the online, which is mildly problematic yet brimming with life and new ways to experience the game. You may be serving time in jail, but The Escapists 2 will ensure that you won't feel guilty about it. Now excuse me, I think I've earned some kind of punishment for that awful wordplay.

Sep 19, 2017A great step forward beyond its predecessor.
