Getting started
StepWhen you load in, the prison throws obstacles and guards at you, so observation saves a lot of restarts.
- Test your controls confirm how movement and jumping feel
- Look ahead spot the next obstacle before you approach it
- Find the guards scan the area and note where each guard is before you move into their zone
- Pick your path choose the route that keeps you out of guard sightlines
Slipping past guards
TipsOnce you understand that rhythm, avoiding them becomes much easier than it first looks.
- Watch a guard's patrol pattern before you move through their area
- Use cover — corners and objects you can duck behind when a guard turns your way
- Move when the guard is looking away
- Move carefully rather than rushing
Playing with up to 20 people
TipsBecause multiple people are in the prison at once, you can split up tasks. Just make sure you are helping each other rather than getting in each other's way.
- Have one player watch a guard and call out when it is safe for the others to advance
- While one person draws a guard's attention to one side, others can slip through from the other direction
- If a friend is stuck on an obstacle, talk through the timing with them

Common questions
FAQWhat happens if a guard catches me?
Getting caught ends your current run. You will either restart from the beginning or resume from partway through the stage.
How many players can join the same server?
Up to 20 players can be in one server at the same time. That opens up the option of coordinating with friends to distract guards or share tips on tricky obstacles.
I keep failing the same obstacle — what should I do?
Watch the obstacle carefully and try to learn its pattern before attempting it again. If that still does not work, ask a friend in the server for advice.
