About this guide

Escape Plan is a route-planning and risk-management game about recovering hidden loot and getting out of the city before the police close in.

What this guide covers

Scope: Eagle-Gryphon base game; solo-specific rules excluded.

Move through the city

On your turn, travel between connected locations, paying or resolving movement effects where required.

Recover assets

Visit locations tied to your hidden cash and asset tiles to convert them into money or future scoring potential.

Use businesses and safe houses

City locations provide equipment, healing, contacts, income and route options. Some also help reduce risk or improve your final escape.

Manage notoriety

Notoriety affects police pressure and access to some benefits. High notoriety can be profitable but makes movement and survival harder.

Police and wounds

Police officers, patrols and wounds restrict efficient routes. Use equipment, contacts and tactical movement to avoid being trapped.

Gangs and contacts

Recruitable effects can protect routes, improve income or create special actions. Use them to solve a concrete movement or scoring problem.

Exit the city

Exit tiles become the final objective. You must reach and pay for a legal exit before the game ends for your recovered wealth to count fully.
