Jorge S Fernandez: "The neat thing about videogames is how they can take any premise, whether based on reality or fiction, and build a simulation-style element toward it. This simple concept has led to many innovative titles built around the day-to-day activities of various roles, from next door neighbor (The Sims) to immigration officer (Papers, Please) to God (Black and White)."

KeenGamer: "A good prison simulator can be a strong statement as to why we need more of them like The Escapists 2. Because they're always a great way to satisfy our itch of performing a Shawshank Redemption style escape from a high-security penitentiary."

Starting today, The Escapists is free at Epic Games Store. The free game offers run until September 30 at 11 AM Eastern. Once you claim it, it’s yours to keep.
