How Long Is The Escapists 2?

Boring.
This review is for the PC (Microsoft Windows) version
Honestly it feels like more of the same from the first one but this time they incorporated co-op. Problem is all the maps are designed for co-op and not well designed for single player. They're too large with too much stuff you have to do/get if you plan on escaping by yourself. Escaping co-op is way easier because the maps are designed for that. If you plan on playing solo just play the first one you won't be missing out by not playing this one.
Fun But Gets Boring
This review is for the PC (Microsoft Windows) version
Definitely worth playing. I had played coop with a friend on console and it was fun.
But now I tried to return to do the solo escapes and got bored quickly. It feels very linear once you know what you're doing. The game basically tells you how to escape which makes it feel like a chore to get to that point rather than a careful scheme.
The gameplay isn't bad I think I just got bored of it after a while.
Gobelin_Powa's review of The Escapists 2
7/10 C'est pas mal, y a plein de possibilités, mais c'est répétitif.
I see the appeal
I could not get into the first one but this one was fun and easy to get into. I liked my time with it even if it was never wholly engrossing. It was "fun" but I also felt like I was wasting my time... I guess all videogames could be distilled into "time wasters" but this one made me feel it more than most.
Escaped from First 2 / 3 prisons, stuck on boat one .
