Overview
They shouldn’t have placed me in a “Very Easy” Prison. Beat up guards, then walk straight out of the entrace to your escape.
The plan
1. Beat down 4 guards, (tying them up,) so the warden opens the main gate.
2. Move to visitation area through the vents.
3. Run towards Outside.
4. Oh no! Snipers shooting at me for 20 damage!!!
5. Use a medikit and it’s K (heal 20).
6. Freedom! (Wouldn’t take as long as the picture indicates).

Items you need
So that you will win a 1V5 brawl with the guards
Outfit: Plated Inmate Outfit
+3 defense
Weapon: Nunchunks/Whip
+5 attack
Cutters
The glorious product of technology
Heals you for 20, effectively neglecting 1 sniper shot
Preparation
- Train up stats: 80 INT + >80 STR
- Venting
- Obtain items
INT
You will need 80 INT to craft keys, weapons etc. Just browse the internet to increase your INT.
STR
2 Points of STR give you 1 health point, thus having more than 80 STR will allow you to take 2 sniper shots without dying, leaving ample time for you to heal with medikit. Also, allowing you to beat people up easily.
The vent system is an excellent place to store your contraband items.
It is also necessary to use the vent to minimize distance spent outdoors(sniped) during escape.
Map
Ways to get them:
- Searching immate’s desks
- Beat immates up and loot them
- Buy them from inmates
- Beat up a guard
- Does he have a red [staff key]?
- If he doesn’t, beat up another guard (watch your heat level)
- Take the guard’s red [staff key], craft it with putty to obtain [key mould]
- Return the key to the guard (Else you’ll get busted)
- Craft key with [key mould] + [molten plastic]
Cut the vent above visitation to a low percentage, leave the cutter there, allows you to speedily escape without needing another [fake vent cover].
(Potential bugs)
The solitary area is a safe place to store your contrabands. Just leave the square right beside the door empty, and guards wont search that place.
Having a [fake vent cover] in your inventory while taking down another [fake vent cover] seems to allow infinite vent cover durability.
The escape
- Ductapes 3X
- Medikit 2X
- Plastic Staff Key
- Cutter
For the first part of the escape, we need to have 4 guards knocked out at once. Choose a time, preferably when 3 guards are together (eg. breakfast), beat them up, tie them with ductapes so they remain immobilized, then beat up the 4th guard. At this point, you should receive a message from the warden.
Once the door is open, heal yourself back to 40+ to be safe with [bottle of medicine] or [medikit]. There should be a count-down timer with 90 sec before reinforcement. Next, grab your medikits X2 and your red plastic staff key, run to your room, get in the vent, close the cover. Rush to the vent above visitation, pickup the cutter / use the cutter to finish cutting the vent, get down, leave the room through 2 red staff doors (Make sure you have more than 20% durability on the plastic key).
At this point, all you have to do is run to the exit. Since you’re outdoors, snipers will be shooting you for 20 damage each. The distance you have to run will allow snipers to hit you 3 times.
Run to the Left!
To survive the sniper assaults, simply use the medikits you brought along on yourself. If you have more than 40 health, 1 Medikit is sufficient. However to be safe, 2 medikits will save you if you messed up a little.
Thank you for reading my guide on beating the very easy prison with style! I hope you enjoy your escape.
