Plan your next Prison Escape Simulator: Dig Out session
This independent guide presents five observation‑focused exercises that let you explore Prison Escape Simulator: Dig Out’s core systems without relying on hidden mechanics.
01 / THE GUIDE
Tool Efficiency
Measure the time taken to dig the same distance with a basic shovel versus an upgraded one. Note how the upgrade reduces the number of digs needed, affecting how often you must hide sand.
- Hide sand promptly by covering the carpet or flushing it to stay undetected.
- Exercise regularly to boost strength, making each dig more effective.
02 / THE GUIDE
Resource Management
Track how much sand you can conceal before a guard inspection. Balancing digging bursts with hiding actions helps prevent detection and keeps progress steady.
- Trade toilet paper for superior tools to dig more efficiently.
- Buy upgraded toilets to remove sand quickly and avoid suspicion.
03 / THE GUIDE
Trade Value
Record the amount of toilet paper exchanged for each tool. Higher‑value trades often yield better equipment, accelerating your escape timeline.
- Start with small bets to build reputation without risking debt.
- Use winnings to fund essential upgrades like stronger shovels.
04 / THE GUIDE
Gambling Risk
Log outcomes of small versus large bets. Small, consistent wins can fund upgrades, while large bets may quickly deplete resources.
- Adjust camera comfort settings for smoother navigation while digging.
- Save before risky digs using the in‑game save option.
05 / THE GUIDE
Controller Comfort
Test camera comfort settings on both DualShock and DualSense controllers. Adjusting sensitivity can make precise digging and sand‑hiding actions smoother.
- Aim for achievement milestones to explore all game features.
- Use Family Sharing to let others try different strategies.
