About The Great Escape
The Great Escape is an isometric action-adventure game set in 1942 at Heldentod P.O.W. Camp, a converted castle in a remote location. You play a prisoner of war who must escape undetected and rejoin the Allied Armies. Planning, patience, skill and courage are needed as you gather resources and find a way out.
Life in the camp
You must follow the camp’s daily schedule: attend two roll calls and one meal, take part in exercise, and stay in bed at night. Missing an event raises the alarm. When you leave the controls untouched, your character automatically moves to important events, leaving you to find gaps in the timetable to explore the camp.
Guard rooms are forbidden, and being caught in one sends you to solitary confinement. A morale flag changes from green to red when you enter an area where you should not be. You must also obey soldiers’ commands and avoid carrying forbidden objects; if you are caught in a suspicious situation, you lose all the items you have found so far. You can deposit objects in a safe place to avoid this.
Plan your escape
You can break out through multiple routes, including back doors, cracked fences and underground tunnels, with multiple solutions available. Guards patrol fixed routes and have a line of sight, so you must learn their movements and sneak past them. If caught, your morale falls; if it reaches zero, your will to escape is broken.
Keys open locked doors, uniforms provide camouflage, and flashlights help you see in dark tunnels. Guards, the Commandant and fellow prisoners can hinder or help your plans.
