In Prison Escape Simulator Dig Out the player takes the role of an inmate preparing to dig out of confinement. The starting point is a small locked cell with very basic equipment. The first steps involve finding a place to begin tunneling, usually under the bed, carpet, or toilet. Guard inspections take place regularly, so timing movements is essential. The main objective is to reach freedom by creating a hidden tunnel without drawing attention.
Gathering And Using Resources
Resources for digging are scarce inside the prison, so trading and scavenging are key. Fellow inmates can provide items if certain requests are met, while some guards may accept small goods in exchange for tools. These tools determine how quickly and quietly the tunnel expands. Lighting sources are also needed to navigate underground. Notes, scraps, or messages found in the cell may reveal the best direction to dig.
- Dig under hidden areas such as carpet or toilet
- Trade found items with other inmates or corrupt guards
- Upgrade digging tools from simple utensils to advanced equipment
- Use lighting tools to explore tunnels safely
- Follow clues from letters or notes for tunnel direction
Improving The Cell
Progress is not limited to the tunnel. The cell itself can be improved to support the escape plan. Hidden compartments, upgraded flooring, or stronger covers for the tunnel entrance can make inspections less risky. Certain upgrades allow soil disposal to be done more effectively, reducing the chance of detection. Currency earned through tasks and trades can be spent on these improvements, expanding the range of possible strategies.
Managing Supplies
Food, water, and other supplies stored inside the cell help maintain the escape effort. The player can acquire storage items, such as shelves or a small fridge, to hold rations collected during the day. This ensures the character remains ready for long digging sessions without interruption. Placing these items correctly inside the cell is important, as they also influence the available working space.
Facing Risks And Consequences
Every action carries a risk. Being caught during digging or tool handling can result in losing progress, items, or even being relocated to a more secure cell. Guards respond differently depending on the time of day and the player’s previous behavior. A failed attempt often means starting the escape plan again, but each setback provides information that can be used for the next try. Multiple strategies are possible, making every playthrough distinct.
