About the Game

You are a prisoner in the strangest prison, armed with nothing but a spoon and one simple goal: escape
Dig beneath your cell, cook whatever you can catch, and fight anything standing between you and freedom.

Your spoon is your first tool and perhaps your most reliable one.

Dig tunnels beneath the prison, uncover hidden paths, and gather useful resources along the way. Upgrade your spoon and keep pushing deeper until you reach freedom.

Escaping on an empty stomach is a terrible plan. Unfortunately, dinner may have plans of its own. By day, you work as the prison chef.

Find ingredients, chase down the living ones, wash the dirty ones, and chop them well or make a complete mess of it. Combine whatever you find into meals that prepare you for the dangers ahead.

FIGHT

Not everything beneath this prison wants you to escape.

Use your spoon as a weapon, face skeletons and other strange enemies, and fight your way through whatever stands between you and the next tunnel. Who said escaping prison was easy?!

ESCAPE

Every tunnel leads somewhere. Not every path leads outside.

Someone is making sure you never leave this prison. Stay hidden, don’t get caught, and maybe... just maybe... you’ll make it out alive.

Your way out is down there somewhere. Probably!
