If you were a fan of the hit TV series Prison Break, you probably rejoiced at the news that there is going to be new episodes within the year and that almost all the stars are back. Well, this game has nothing to do with that, despite having the sort of same concept, and we mean characters trying to break out of prison. But this time around, this is a retro platformer that is a spin off from the popular PC game Hot Guns.
You are a prisoner named Jake (sorry Michael Scofield is already taken) and you and your friends need to break out of the state prison. We don’t know anything about your innocence or guilt, but hey, when you got to get out of jail, you gotta go. You will encounter falling debris, various hazards you can find inside a prison, and of course guards whose job it is to stop you from getting out.
While you do have a gun that you can use, if you’re carrying one, you won’t be able to jump as high so sometimes, you would need to drop your weapon in order to grab onto a ledge and not fall to your death. There are 45 different sections in the lockup that you need to escape from, in this retro-themed side scrolling adventure that features pixelated graphics and fun but easy to learn mechanics.
You can download Prison Run and Gun from the Google Play Store for $1.99. But there are no in-app purchases available, so everything is all in.
