I used to come home and play this game after school when I was a kid. I'd always get the same packet of biscuits from the shop on the way home and eat them while I played. Weird how the Center Perks music helps me remember the exact taste all these years later! Thanks for covering this game, it's very special to me.
Yeah there's just something about this game that made me hooked to it's asthetics and gameplay when I was a kid it felt so deep with so much stuff to discover playing it after 7 years made me realize it really wasn't that hard@@masterlywolfyt1394
I used to watch a guy play this game back in the day In it made me really want the game I did eventually get it on console (where it's a bit different than on PC where certain items actually change (what I mean is that certain items can be illegal on the console port compared to on the PC side) also some other things such as keys change and certain starts don't work on console But I still beat all the main prisons which are still somewhat similar I also did played the 2nd game once it came out to consoles though I never did beat it fully This game is super cool because there isn't many like it Hell there aren't any like it And it's still one of my favorite game franchises ever And it's super fun to play trough
i have a similar thing with old battledome videos by vikkstar123. as a kid i used to watch them and eat pita chips. i look back at them from time to time and get the same thing but with pita chips. weird.
heyo , i know you made this for fun but i just want to say that you could escape center perks on day one with just 4 plastic forks and 4 knives found in the cafeteria by destroying the southern wall (next to the doors that close at night) to 4% and the cut the fence at night. keep up the great work ❤
He could optimize it even more with some RNG to recruit as many inmates as possible and to get at least 1 duct tape so that he can attack guards with his crew
Mom: Get up Crog, it's time for lunch Crog: Just a moment Mom: You have 5 minutes those 5 minutes: "I decided to run half a marathon on a treadmill, became MrBeast, ran another half a marathon, threw a man into a bathroom, begged the warden to let me free, again I ran another full marathon" 18:12
Man, I remember watching let’s plays of this game after school when I was younger. Nice to see it getting some love, especially in such a nicely executed video
the order of keys that guards hold is actually entirely dependent on the order of the guards shown when you start the prison and are given the option to name everyone. the first guard in the list is the head guard, who holds the yellow cell key and is the one who calls roll every day. the second and third guards in the list hold the green work key and the orange utility key, and they follow the head guard to the routine areas. the fourth guard in the list holds the red staff key (generally the most useful of the keys) and the fifth guard in the list holds the purple entrance key. the other guards don't hold any keys.
I so remember tricks like these being shared like little secrets back in the day lol. Kinda reminds you of old minecraft where no one know how things worked

Only real big flaw of yours, is that you can use upgradable level shovel/pick/cutters until it 1 use before break and then if you upgrade it, item will be restored to 100 percent condition. Hence, doubling the amount of chopped tiles per tool. Yet, perfect execution in everything and cool video, good time watching and reup on nostalgia about this game.
Awesome video! its cool to see what you could do without any prior knowledge of the current strats. you should check out the strats used in the current World records as I think you will have your mind blown. I had the 3-minute WR run you saw at the end of the video for reference :)
I dont know if this is well known or not, but I used to complete prison 2 (snowy one) within a minute or so by just beating the guards on the first roll call and getting the keys to escape; this was on mobile

I need to beat your time now…. Except for me, well… I’m gonna riot out of all the prisons in one fell swoop! I’ve rioted out of all of them before, now it’s time to do it again >:)
Nice run. Chuckled at the Minecraft joke. But some of the edits for memes and stuff, could honestly be taken out. Makes it possible for a better focus on what you're playing. Hope you have a nice day

I first saw this game on ParkerPlays How the fuck ParkerGames got a show on DisneyXD when Markiplier and Jacksepticeye were shoved off to the side in highlight reels ill never understand
@@Crogg I'm not knocking him as a person or a content creator I'm just saying Disney had the money to cater to a larger swatch of gamers on their gaming block and just didn't bother. I love that Parker got a TV show, I wanted him to get one alongside a lot of other creators like, idk, matpat or... Who else was big in 2019? DanTDM?
Hey, this is a good video, you should try doing a proper speedrun with up to date strats: the game can be beat in like 3 minutes with glitches. Itd be hella cool to see a follow up video if you learn the new strats in the community discord. Theres a ton of interesting glitches that would make great content if you cover them, and you could do a full 100% + dlc run to make a long enough video. The glitches let you do things like spawn any craftable item, dupe items, and clip through walls. I think this would make a great watch and the discord link can be found on src iirc im 5th on the 100% leaderboard for reference
I remember speed running Center Perks on mobile in like 2-3 minutes. You can beat up officer and pick up a baton from him, and after beating everyone on breakfast. I don't know if it was a bug or it was just enough but gate oppened. I espaced on 10:40 already.
Cool Video! however idk if you know this but you can loot other people’s desks at a distance if you just click on a different desk while looting a current one
a guard can't put you in solitary for having a brick/key in your inventory, only if they are dropped on the ground (or in the case of keys, when the guard wakes up and notices his key is gone)
Um the speedrun for center percs is easy. All u gotta do is get ur workout stats pretty high, then u got to knock out the police. Then u will get a letter from the warden telling you to just leave and stop beating the cops
I has no idea you could still play the first game (All escapes are harder in the second game except the first one and the transportation ones) (You cant just knockout the guards and dip)
You call yourself the worst speedrunner, I haven't even gotten out of the first prison yet (granted I only played like 4 hours or less basically casual/first time but still)

But I still beat all the main prisons which are still somewhat similar
I also did played the 2nd game once it came out to consoles though I never did beat it fully

You actually need flimsy scisors to escape on day one if you use knives you will escape after midnight
He could optimize it even more with some RNG to recruit as many inmates as possible and to get at least 1 duct tape so that he can attack guards with his crew
You can also escape day 1 by taking a rake and knocking out enough guards during morning rollcall, then running down to the exit

Same here, used to be obsessed. Then I got the game and realized how much I sucked as a kid lmao.
I never knew that the rope and bed sheet rope had uses, never ocurred to me to tie up guards, and the bed rope i thought would be to climb fences
Well rope can also be used to make a grappling hook to climb down from the roof and the sheet rope can be used to climb to higher places on the roof.
closest thing the escapists community has to an eezy speezy video about us
He just made one
LOL
1:33 ok so, this is common mistake, speed does NOT increase movement speed, it increase attack speed

I'm not 100% certain, but I think this also applies to the inmates that get the other jobs

On mobile, you can escape center perks on day 1 morning roll call.
That applys on xbox also

dude i’ve been waiting to see an escapist speedrun but i don’t want to watch raw footage
I imagine the stun rod is attached to a guards uniform by a chain that needs to be unlocked via key
Which the guards don’t have
i didint even knew that you can speedrun this game without glitches XD

Why not click on guards during downtime to earn their appeal. They will roll call you less if you do so
watching this was very entertaining considering ive played that game years ago and never beat the final prison lolol
Very cool
Hi grais
"couple years back" 💀💀💀
bro this was a decade ago
I FOUND UR CHANNEL AGAIN 😭😭😭🙏
my childhood
he is NOT going in prison for long 🙏
"Officer Anger Lvl" LMAO
THEY CALL HIM THE SPEEDRUNNER😂
You should do the escapists 2
W video
the first two prisons can be done in day 1 by beating up 4 guards
baseball bat are the best early weapons in the game
You should see Generic_Mystical as He beat Escapist 2 without crafting.
good video
How did u stop the game from crashing?
for hmp irongate, couldn't you just have done the famous jesus escape? or has that been patched?
Um the speedrun for center percs is easy. All u gotta do is get ur workout stats pretty high, then u got to knock out the police. Then u will get a letter from the warden telling you to just leave and stop beating the cops
I lowkey thought escapist 2 was the only game kind of a titanfall 2 situation
I has no idea you could still play the first game
(All escapes are harder in the second game except the first one and the transportation ones)
(You cant just knockout the guards and dip)
please do with escapists 2, i would love to watch it
pretty sure you can cut down on time by beating the first 2 maps on day 1 by just beating the guards
"...became Mr. Beast,"
Ooooh, that one aged poorly.
No way the escapists is 10 years old now
U can escape first prison at day 1, 23:40 with just 4 plastic knifes
You call yourself the worst speedrunner, I haven't even gotten out of the first prison yet (granted I only played like 4 hours or less basically casual/first time but still)
were you playing in an older vertion
My strategy for day 1 escape prison 1 (mobile) get a weapon, start a riot, eacape
lol the punchline
CROGG Im ur big fan and make a video of BFDI: Branches
Nothing in this video is even close to a speed run your just playing casually with a timer lol. Why’d you title it like that?
There's always a first time for everything.
