Team17, the company behind the Worms series, has picked up prison break game The Escapists as its second third-party published title.
The Escapists is developed by Derby studio Mouldy Toof, the maker of Spud's Quest. It was successfully crowd-funded through Kickstarter last year to the tune of £7131, and was also successful on Steam Greenlight. It's due out later in 2014.
The game itself is a cross between Terraria and Minecraft set in a prison with a top-down camera perspective. There's time management, digging and crafting, among other activities.
It'll be hands-on at EGX Rezzed, alongside Team17's Light, created by Just A Pixel, at the NEC in Birmingham from 28th to 30th March.
