The Escapists games seem to have flown under the radar of the casual gaming base, which is a shame because their genre melding gameplay and delightful 16-bit style graphics are a beauty to behold.

As you assume the role of inmates who must break out of prison after prison with increasing difficulty, The Escapists is obviously a Prison Break fan's wet dream. However, if that's just not your jam, and you're only here for yuletide hijinks then rejoice, because both the original game, and its sequel, have Christmas themed DLC. To top it all off, they're free too!

The first seasonal DLC for The Escapists is called Santa's Sweatshop. In it, instead of breaking out of prison as an inmate, you take control of an Elf who must escape the rubbish pay and gruelling working conditions of Santa's workshop. This is then followed by Christmas prison level Jingle Cells. In The Escapists 2, there's the DLC Santa's Shakedown, another Christmas themed prison with a rather theatrical warden and their attempts to hold a pantomime. So what are you waiting for? Go get yourself some free DLC and escape from Santa's workshop!
