Description

Takes a little Luck and a lot of Courage.

Jailbreaker! is a one-player board game that rewards risk-taking as you try to move your inmate past the guards to freedom.

No Friends Required

Jailbreaker is played using four dice, each of which represents the movement of the guards. As the prisoner, you plan your moves to avoid the guards and reach freedom. Gameplay may be modified for 2 players, if desired.

This game was inspired by John Kohn's Shark Hunt! solo game, also launched on Kickstarter. I was intrigued by the solo player action and the use of a six-side die to move pieces across hexagons. This format allows for "autonomous" movement by the prison guards at random, adding an element of suspense to the game.

For Gamers and Non-Gamers Alike

I've been intimidated by many strategy and role-playing board games. This game is designed to be easy to play, yet the degree of "luck" involved can make it interesting to gamers who like the thrill of risk-taking. Moving across the board more quickly toward "freedom" increases the risk of being captured, but so does moving too slowly.
