    Found a wonderfull site. If you don't know The Escapists Wikia, here it is: https://theescapists.gamepedia.com/The_Escapists_2

    There you can know all escape possibilities, solo or co-op. There are 7 ways to escape Centre Perks. Number 1 has 5 different strategies, done only solo. Number 2 also solo. Number 3 in co-op.

    The easiest method can be done on Day 1 ideally. You'll want a crowbar or other item that can break down a wall. Attend morning rollcall and leave to the purple door under the medic room on the left, then go into the small hut below with a purple door and chip on the wall to the left. Once it's broken, walk out and you're free. This took me a couple minutes to set up as I had to run an errand and buy a crowbar off of a prisoner. RNG will play a factor but it shouldn't take very long to set up.
