Escaping the Prison is a choice-based comedy adventure created by PuffballsUnited and first published on Newgrounds in 2010. Henry Stickmin receives a package containing several unlikely tools, and the player decides which item or action he should use at each stage of the escape.
What Is Escaping the Prison?
Most choices lead to a quick failure, but those scenes are part of the design rather than a simple penalty. They reveal jokes, references, and clues about what another option might do. The original game has three successful routes, encouraging players to return after one ending and explore the remaining decisions.

How to Play Escaping the Prison
Click an item or action when a choice appears, then watch the result. Some sequences also include brief timed events, so be ready to select an option when the prompt changes. A failed choice can be replayed without restarting the entire story.
Do not treat the most realistic item as automatically correct. The series often rewards an unexpected or comedic solution. After finding one successful route, return to earlier branches to discover different endings and failure scenes.
