For starters, my cell mate keeps calling the guards when I dig.

What do I do about this asshole!? :P

It's giving me flashbacks to 1st grade when Frecky Lewis followed me around reporting every move I made to the teacher!

You can tie him up with rope or duct tape. But they are calling guards because their favor level is too low. Gift them money or valuable stuff, and click on everyone who has low opinion value to make them like you better. I do this for everyone, guards included because the later prisons start off with everyone having a very low opinion of you and they may randomly attack you because of that.

Thanks. I was doing all of the favors he asked but I guess I need to do more.

No problem, good luck!

That's a nice tip! I didn't know about that, but will keep all that in mind for future reference.

I didn't realize simply talking to (clicking on) people made any sort of impact. I thought, if anything, it just pissed them off lol!

Day 27... still incarcerated. But hey! 100% Strength, Speed and Intelligence! And I learned how to make a shank out of my toothbrush :)

I took a break to play Stardew but I did escape the 1st 4 prisons so I'm getting better.

Will you... teach me? :D

I'm just sort of biding time, doing favors and gathering skrilla while I obtain crafting techniques.

Stardew looks amazing! I bet it would lag on my PC...

I will if I can but I think half the fun is figuring it out yourself, that AND I don't remember how exactly I got that far. :P

For starters I think speed is useless. Use a poster over a fake block. And at night never leave your cell without a dummy in your bed.

Nice! Didn't think about using a poster. I know about the bed dummy. Now, after getting caught in the ventilation system with a vent cover missing... and no bed dummy. I just can't seem to find any pillows!

Gasp!! I have to beat people up... and take them!!

Need to figure out how to get melted plastic as well. I know using a cup + chocolate + a lighter = hot chocolate.

I wonder if you need a cup to melt plastic into....

Whenever possible buy recipes. And a lot of people love the vents but I hate them. There are too many barriers and the fake grill vents break down too often. Also I can promise there isn't one vent that leads all the way out of the prison which is of course where you want to go.

If you are digging here is a tip, get rid of dirt by gifting to other inmates. They may not want it but screw them, all that matters is getting rid of it. :P

I usually just flush unwanted stuff down (other inmates') toilets. Pillows, you can easily steal from (again, other inmates') beds, plus the bedsheet to make the dummy. As for melted plastic, it's lighter + comb (or other common plastic stuff, I forget which exactly). You start off with a comb so I always use that. :-) Once I even got away with a room sweep because I had hidden my contraband in a toilet (but didn't flush), not sure if that was just a fluke though.

My toilet always ends up flooding. :P

A lot of times I end up flooding other inmates' toilets :D I always use theirs during the day whenever possible to avoid my cell from being spotted.

Great info here!! I only thought of using plastic forks/spoons/knives with a lighter, which for some reason doesn't seem to work.
