U.S.S. Anomaly

The U.S.S. Anomaly is one of the maps in The Escapists 2. Ten keys are needed to unlock this prison. It is the last and hardest prison in the game.

Description

Billed as an institution "designed to solve the problem of Earth’s overcrowded prisons", the Anomaly is the game's hardest-to-escape-from fortress that's packed with robotic guards, cameras, contraband detectors, and dogs, and is overseen by an AI warden. These methods are used to make sure no prisoners escape. Luckily, the prison's space-age tech isn't exclusive to the establishment, as you'll have the chance to leverage jet packs and shuttles as you plan your interstellar escape.
