Want to get out of prison? In Deckscape: Escape from Alcatraz, players can choose to free (or not!) other prisoners in exchange for help — but is this morally right? And can you really trust these hardened crooks? Deckscape: Escape from Alcatraz is the seventh title in a series of co-operative games inspired by real escape rooms in which a group of people is "trapped" inside a room full of puzzles and odd items. The goal of the game is to solve puzzles, understand the plot of the story, and make intelligent use of the items provided in order to exit from the room as quickly as possible.
