    The Escapists 2 for the Switch is a great prison escape game, which stays true to its intention of bringing 8-bit sandbox games into 2018 and while there may be other ways to create a game of this genre, it is still hard to imagine other prison escape games being as fun as this both for a single player and multiplayer experience.

It should not be doing this it has done it three times and it was perfectly fine yesterday. This game is really fun and I really like it but there is something wrong. I don't know if it is just me but it needs to be fixed.… Full Review »
