    Roooo... ils en ont commis un autre, ils ont démoulé une suite, ils ont osé... mais c'est à ça qu'on les reconnaît à vrai dire : ils osent tout ! et si en plus (!) des gens donnent de l'argent pour "ça", alors c'est la porte ouverte à toutes les putains de fenêtres !

    Donc, la suite du pixel larve tout en 2D pourrave et 16 couleurs qui se battent en duel (et parfois en groupe) de ce pseudo-jeu d'évasion de prison bricolé par deux mains gauches et programmé avec le fion ! dès qu'on le voit ce truc de toute façon, ce pixel lard, on a déjà envie de s'enfuir... on veut sortir de là, nom de dieu !

    Et pis de toute façon, tout y est si mal fait, si affreux, si lourd et pensé cette fois-ci pour le koop kikoolol à kévins (en mode rétron 'c'est frais' activé bien sûr) qu'en solo, tu vois pas le début de la fin du bout de ce tout-à-l'égoût qui s'est pris pour... un jeu vidéo. Allez, on vidange ce sous-produit vite fait, il faut purger !    … Expand

    I enjoy the game a lot, but they have a lot to improve. Let me start with the good. The prisons are bigger and better, which I liked. The graphics are way better, though they used pixels it has a lot more detail then the original. Also, they added some new modes that improve the experience. Now on to the bad things.

Also, they added some new modes that improve the experience. Now on to the bad things. The game lags every once in a while, which isn't good at all and is pretty annoying. Also, it takes way to long to get the items to escape. Lastly, the game became repetitive, which isn't good for a game this long. The game is for sure worth it overall though.… Expand

    Wow, just wow! Who would of thought that after the mediocre first game, they would release what I consider a masterpiece. Everything wrong with the fist game, fixed. Buy it, it was fun.

    Игра хорошая, сильно затянет если есть друг (не у всех есть друг). Всего 20$ стоит.

    The Escapists 2 is one of my favorite sandbox games of all time. It is certainly one of the best prison games on the market. It has loads of different craft able items you can make to either fight people or you can use them to escape one of the many brilliantly designed jails. The multiplayer is very good and you can do split screen for up to 4 players. I highly recommended this game toThe Escapists 2 is one of my favorite sandbox games of all time.

    A very fun, multiplayer-encouraging game. Much more polished on home consoles, and much less bugs are encountered.

    El juego a mí siempre me ha gustado, mucha gente puede incluso renegar del tema crafteo en el juego, porque es sumamente complicado encontrar las recetas para todo lo que hay, pero la verdad que la experiencia es muy buena una vez empiezas a investigar cuáles son (lo mejor es buscarlo por Internet) y cada vez que juegas puedes hacer diferentes cosas, aunque las primeras cárceles son muyEl juego a mí siempre me ha gustado, mucha gente puede incluso renegar del tema crafteo en el juego, porque es sumamente complicado encontrar las recetas para todo lo que hay, pero la verdad que la experiencia es muy buena una vez empiezas a investigar cuáles son (lo mejor es buscarlo por Internet) y cada vez que juegas puedes hacer diferentes cosas, aunque las primeras cárceles son muy fáciles. Consejo: las primeras cárceles solo necesitas tener mucha Fuerza y un arma contundente, dejas a todos los policías en el suelo y se te abrirán las puertas.… Expand

    The Escapists 2 is a sequel that manages to build and expand upon the original game in every way, whilst also still making it a great starting point for newcomers. Those familiar with the concept will still have lots to learn with the new mobile prison challenges and unique escape methods, and the game still has that surprising level of difficulty. At the same time, however, The Escapists 2 offers a lot more instruction than the original, with a new tutorial level, crafting guide and a slightly more linear approach overall. The introduction of multiplayer is also a bonus, giving players, even more, ways to escape and cause general havoc.

    I still don't know if I personally like The Escapists 2. It was slow, extremely frustrating and by no means a casual gameplay experience, but I wouldn't say it’s a bad game. Oddly enough, despite my problems learning the ropes of prison life, and the failure of trying to escape, I still find myself drawn to it. Once you figure out what you are doing, get a grasp of prison life and crafting items, it becomes somewhat addictive. Gamers who enjoy time management will have a lot of fun plotting their escape, and fans of retro games will surely enjoy the pixelated characters and graphics. The Escapists 2 isn't for everyone, but if you're looking for a challenging game with high replay value, or you were a fan of the first game, then you'll definitely want to add this to your Xbox One collection.
