11/13/2022 0 Comments The escapist game xbox 360![]() ![]() Protect the living and escape the dead as you play through the award-winning comic's epic story. The game faithfully matches the timeline of the comics, meaning Rick must first fight his way out of the Harrison Memorial Hospital, visit the Greene family farm before visiting destinations such as the Meirwether Correctional Facility and Woodbury. Rick must secure the safety of the group by seeking out a safe escape route from each area, and manage several dangerous tasks to keep as many of the group alive as possible. Rick is in charge of a band of survivors featuring many of the original comic book cast, including Maggie, Hershel, Glenn and Michonne. In this unique game, recreated entirely in the charming 8-bit pixel art style of The Escapists, you play as Rick Grimes as he takes on hordes of zombies let loose upon the world. Providing the standard useful recipes up front would have been handy.Merging the award-winning, smash-hit, indie game The Escapists with the worldwide phenomenon that is The Walking Dead, comes The Escapists: The Walking Dead. It’s hard to plan when you don’t know what a game has actually planned for, especially when the character needs to hit an intelligence threshold to make so much as a glob of sticky paper. Much of this revolves around crafting, which in a continuation of a frankly irritating current trend just assumes that you’ll go to a wiki to find out that, say, papier mache is made by combining toilet paper and superglue. Mechanically of course, the goals are the same: find a weakness, and exploit it. There are also currently three additional ‘custom’ prisons, including Camp Epsilon, where all cells have mesh walls for an extra-special lack of privacy and most prison life is out in the open. Between them are a Stalag, Shankton State Pen, a jungle jail, and San Pancho, south of the border in a cloud of heat and anger. ![]() The first has cable TV in all the rooms, the last has security cameras. You can only save at the start of each in-game day, and while there’s no death, being taken out by a random prisoner deciding they don’t like your face, or a guard screwing up your plan at the last second, can make for an excruciating time-out and loss of hard-earned progress.Įach of the nine prisons offers a different-feeling challenge though, not to mention new settings, from minimum security with a cell conveniently located right by a service corridor, to a high-security facility for those who have officially transcended mere scamphood. It takes a long series of days to gather and assemble the bits that you need for an escape, and it’s easy to lose all the important ones with just the slightest mistake. Available for free until the 16th November 2016, The Escapists has been stripped of its price tag thanks to the Xbox Games With Gold scheme. How much you appreciate the result will primarily depend on two factors: whether you like being left alone to figure out what to do, because the basic tutorial covers very little of what you need to know to actually escape one of the real prisons, and how annoying this repetition is going to be over time. Social times like dinner, meanwhile, offer a chance to chat with other prisoners, recruit assistance, and collect mini-quests like retrieving someone’s stolen DVD or causing a scene during the next roll-call. Soon I realized it’s also a great time to sneak into other prisoners’ cells and carefully pocket anything good from their stash. Morning roll-call is time for everyone to gather and be told the business of the day, including whose cells are about to be inspected for contraband. It’s a game that looks like Prison Architect’s black-sheep brother, but plays about as a regimented sandbox to first be controlled by, and then to subvert. ![]()
