A more forgiving spin on the prison-break theme of The Escapists, The Escapists: The Walking Dead removes some of the high stress from the original and gives the player more room to breathe and enjoy what was great about it.
It keeps the essence of The Escapists but adapted to the world of The Walking Dead. Of course, sometimes The Escapists: The Walking Dead can give you a déjà vu sense and it doesn't beat the original.
A great title that remains true to the source material, and one that fans of both the Escapists and the Walking Dead will love. Whether the daily grind of washing dirty clothes and working out in the gym will be for everyone else is another question, but this unusual and unique take on one of TV’s bests is at the very least a fun and challenging RPG.
The Walking Dead version of The Escapists feels more like a skin than a completely new game. And it is a skin that does not even make sense in this setting.
SummaryThe Escapists The Walking Dead is a game where players will don the role of Rick Grimes to keep their fellow survivors safe and plan the perfect escape routes.
