How it begins

You might be anyone, carrying nothing, alone in a dismal cell. There are no doors in the concrete walls; only the skylight high above gives you hope. You see a rope, a knife, and a bowl here. You want to escape.

Notable features

  • Puzzleless, which is surprising for a jailbreak game. The game is short and on rails, but you can explore your environment while waiting for events to happen.
  • Some unfortunate bugs that erroneously print "object#42" at the beginning of the game, and "object#52" at the end.
