About the Game

In Escape 51 you play as a small alien that has been mistreated by humans as he works to escape the research facility that has kept him and other aliens like him captive for so long.

You'll have to sneak, hide and solve puzzles as you navigate through the stylized halls of the facility. Meet and befriend other aliens as you all try your best to escape. Your friends will serve you well, as your kind's unique ability to exchange limbs will come into play.

Different aliens have different abilities, their biology will help you move forward. Can you avoid the security guards and make use of the chaos to escape?
