Strategies / Ways To Escape

There are many ways to escape Center Perks, as this is the easiest prison in The Escapists.

Prison Takeover

You will need to work on your strength for this strategy, and get it up to about 90. You will also need a relatively good weapon. A 3/5 weapon such as a Baton would work, but a 5/5 weapon such as Nunchucks would be ideal. A Plated Inmate Outfit would also be ideal, for extra defense. After you have these items, all you have to do is knock out four guards, and have at least four out of the five guards knocked out at the same time. Note that once you knock out your second guard, a prison lockdown will automatically occur. Once you accomplish this, you should get a message from the warden saying the front doors are open. There is a door with a white lock which you can then walk out of, and you will have escaped.

Preparation

0. Dig underground or access the vent system if you are worried about shakedowns. (OPTIONAL)

  1. Gather 5 Roll of Duct Tape Roll of Duct Tape or Length of Rope Length of Rope so you can tie the guards.
  2. Increase your strength to 80 minimum.
  3. Increase your speed to 40 minimum.
  4. Increase your intellect to 80 minimum.
  5. Craft Nunchucks Nunchucks using two pieces ofTimber Timber and one Wire Wire.
  6. Craft a Plated Inmate Outfit Plated Inmate Outfit using an Inmate Outfit Inmate Outfit, a Sheet of Metal Sheet of Metal and a Roll of Duct Tape Roll of Duct Tape.
  7. Gather materials that increases peoples opinion such as Cooked Food Cooked Food, Penarium Barrel Penarium Barrel and a Razor Blade Razor Blade, etc.

Fastest Known Escape (Around 3 Minutes)

Click here for a video showing how it is done. If this goes just right, you can escape Center Perks in around 3 minutes.

  1. When your cell is unlocked, search people's desks and find the following items:
    1. File
    2. Plastic Knife (or Second File)
    3. Roll of Duct Tape or Length of Rope
    4. Items that increase opinions (Penarium Barrel, Cooked Food, Playing Cards, etc) (Optional)
  2. Get someone that will follow you to attack somebody. Tie up the knocked out player with duct tape. Carry them to the back door when it is free time.
  3. Run to the fence and drop the tied inmate.
  4. Begin cutting. The instant you start cutting, pick up the tied inmate. If you do it fast enough, the tower won't shoot you. Repeat the process until the fence is down.
  5. The instant the fence is broken, run down. If you are too slow, you'd be put in Solitary.
  6. Escape Center Perks.

The 'Classic' Way

This method to escape is the most basic way to escape Center Perks. An example of this can be found here.

Increasing Your Stats

When doing the following, try not to get spotted by guards. When you see a guard, stop what ever you are doing and walk away until you are out of sight from the guard.

  1. During breakfast, start increasing your strength.
  2. During your free period, start increasing your speed.
  3. During lunch, start increasing your intellect.
  4. During work period, make sure your fatigue is under 30. If it is higher than 30, go to the shower to reduce it, and go do your job.
  5. When finished with all of the above, increase your strength for the rest of the day.
    1. When your strength is at 80 minimum, start increasing your speed for the rest of the day.
    2. When your speed is 60 minimum, start increasing your intellect for the rest of the day.
  6. When evening roll call hits, attend immediately, no matter your fatigue level.
  7. When lights out hit, go save your stats immediately.
  8. Repeat.
  9. When you finally get your stats where they need to be, you must still increase your speed, strength and intellect, as your stats will go down over time when you don't practice. It would be recommended to increase your strength until your fatigue is at 100%, then shower, then increase your speed until your fatigue is at 100%, then shower, than do the same with intellect.

Note: You can use a Cup of Molten Chocolate Cup of Molten Chocolate as a replacement to Speed and Strength, but be aware that it will bring the guard's opinion you used it on REALLY low, which means that they will possibly attack you at random and rip down your posters.

The preparation*

4: Make 2 Wad of Putty. (I recommend keeping one on you at all times, untill you have both keys.)

6: Make a cutting tool. (List of Tools can be found here.)

Take the Rake

  1. This is recommended for mobile users (iOS and Android).

1. At the start of the game, check your desk and the desks inmates for the tool that will be essential for this method: a rake! 2. With the rake in hand, beat up an isolated guard. Grab their baton and ditch the rake in their pockets. 3. Proceed with knocking out the guards with the baton until a prison takeover has been initiated. 4. Head south and walk through the front doors!

NOTE: If you have done a prison takeover but the purple doors to the south are still locked, simply loot the purple key from the guard that is carrying it. Don’t worry about making a mould, because you will most likely already be free by the time he wakes up.

Xbox One / PS4

The quickest way to escape Center Perks on the console port in just 1 day:

Name guard #4 "Purple Guard." He's the one you need to beat up.

  1. The instant the game begins at 08:00, search through the desks until you find a rake. If you can't find a rake within 30 in-game minutes (before 08:30) return to roll call immediately to avoid triggering lockdown. Stay in roll call for 10 in game minutes. Look for a rake until you find one, but if you can't find a rake before Free Period, proceed to the gym.
  2. Craft a sheet rope with 2 bed sheets.
  3. Grind in the gym until your strength reaches 60+, and your speed is 50+. Stay out of sight of the guards while increasing your stats. Skip your laundry job. Once your strength is 60+ and speed is 50+, beat up Purple Guard. Tie him up and take his Purple Key, outfit, and baton. You will have to tie him up, otherwise he will report his key missing when he wakes up and you will be sent to Solitary Confinement.
  4. Equip the baton. Drop the rake somewhere.
  5. Beat up 4 guards (not in any particular order.) Lockdown will be triggered, enabling you the chance to escape. The warden will let you know after 4 guards have been subdued that the main prison gate is open.
  6. Unlock the Purple Door with your Purple Key and slip through it.
  7. Exit through the main door.
  8. FREEDOM! Enjoy the next level!

Or just:

  1. Get a rake
  2. Beat up all 5 guards
  3. Use the Purple Key in the southern doors
  4. Escape

Another way to escape can be seen here:

1. Bring speed up over 50 and bring Strength up over 50.

2. Craft a Sheet Rope (bed sheet + bed sheet)

3. Craft a Plated Inmate Outfit, with Inmate outfit + Duct tape + Sheet of Metal.

4. Beat up an officer, and take his baton (and his outfit)

5. Once at morning roll call, assuming all steps are followed correctly, equip the baton, attack the first officer in the middle then dodge the other two and proceed to knock them out as well. Loot the guards until you find the one with the Purple Key. Tie him up with the Sheet Rope and take his key.

6. Find the final surviving officer and take him down. A warden's prompt will let you know that the main gates are open.

7. Waltz right out through the Purple Doors, and swagger right through the front door LIKE A BOSS!

8. Enjoy the Next Level!

Life in Center Perks

You always live in the middle row of cells on the 2nd row to the left. 8:00 is morning Roll Call. Failing to go to rollcall will cause a prison lockdown. After Roll Call, you have breakfast, which is a good time to take on favors and buy items. After breakfast is Free Period, which is good to plan your escape or complete favors to get cash. Lunch follows the first free period. Use Lunch the same as breakfast (NOTE:You could always skip out on these, but be careful of being spotted!) Your job follows lunch. If you're unemployed, you can simply take on favors, talk to inmates or try and steal someone's job. You can steal a job by beating the inmate with the job up so they get no work done. If you're starting out you probably have laundry duty (See the jobs section on how to complete it.) Finish your quota and leave. A good tactic to complete your quota is leave items ready to go for tomorrow (Like putting 2 dirty outfits in the washer and leaving them for the next day.) Finish your job and head to the gym for either weights or a treadmill. Weights give you more strength and overall health while treadmills increase speed. If you become too fatigued or its time to go, head next door to the showers to reduce fatigue. After Shower Time, eat dinner just like breakfast and lunch, then enjoy your 3 hour free period. After, go to roll call and go to bed. Repeat until you escape!

Available jobs: Janitor, laundry (default), kitchen, mailman, metalshop
