Escape the Alien Prison

Out of the blue, you wake up stuck inside a huge, high-tech spaceship far out in space. Your only goal is to get out! Escape the Alien Prison is a huge sci-fi point-and-click game where you have to fight your way out of jail. Get through tricky obstacle courses, break into complicated security systems, and stop threats from other planets.

Use your brains along with your tools. To get deeper into the alien facility, you have to hack security terminals, turn off surveillance cameras, figure out access codes, turn on lifts, and solve environmental puzzles. You'll find secret maintenance tunnels, hidden labs, strange control rooms, and a lot of other surprises along the way.

Escape the Alien Prison can be played by one person or two people at the same time. In Single Player Mode, you can play the whole story campaign, including puzzles, collectibles, and moving forward. It's fun to go on a journey with a friend in the 2 Player Mode, which is a lighter co-op mode that focuses on action and exploration. Mobile systems can only run the single-player game with touch controls.

How to play Escape the Alien Prison

  • Turn off cameras before going into places that are guarded.
  • Look around every room to find Easter eggs and items that are hidden.
  • Each enemy is best fought with a different weapon.
  • Before you try to hack doors or safes, look carefully for hints.
  • You can make your trip more unique by customising your character with your Tickets.

What's the difference between modes for one and two players?

All of the game's features are available in the single-player mode, which includes the full, uncut story. The 2 Player mode has a slightly simpler, more limited gameplay loop where you and a friend use the same computer to stay alive and make progress.

How do I get money to buy things?

Look around the jail for encrypted safes that are well guarded and hidden. You have to blow them up first, then open them. You will lose the money you need if you break these safes.

Is there a way to get into secret parts of the game?

Yes! There are lots of fun developer Easter eggs and collectible memory things hidden all over the huge spaceship. To find them all, look behind crates and for other parkour ways.

How can I quickly beat the Larry guards?

Don't just charge them! To avoid their strikes, use your Double Jump, and then switch to your Laser Shotgun to deal a lot of damage up close.
