Obby: Prison digger

Obby: Prison digger drops you into a maximum-security facility where freedom is on the other side of the concrete. Armed with nothing but a pickaxe, you set out to carve a hidden route to the surface. The catch? Guards patrol the corridors, and any noise or movement can give you away. Success depends on reading their patterns and choosing when to strike the wall and when to hold still. As you tunnel deeper, each swing brings you closer to liberty but also raises the risk of discovery. You'll need to manage your stamina, pick the most efficient path, and stay one step ahead of the guards. With each level, the layout gets trickier, demanding sharper timing and smarter planning. Whether you're sneaking past a sleeping guard or making a daring dash under a spotlight, every move counts in this cat-and-mouse escape.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I avoid getting caught by the guards?

You need to observe each guard's patrol route and time your movements between their passes. When a guard turns away, dig a few hits and then stop to stay hidden.

What happens if I get caught?

If a guard spots you, you'll be sent back to the beginning of the level or to your last checkpoint, and you'll have to retry that section.

Can I speed up my digging speed?

Yes, you can increase your digging speed by upgrading your pickaxe with in-game currency earned from completing levels or finding hidden items.

Is there a time limit for each level?

No, there's no strict timer, but lingering too long can increase the chance that a guard will catch you off guard.

Are there different types of walls?

Some walls are tougher than others, requiring extra hits to break. Using a more powerful pickaxe will make quick work of them.
