Prison Quest


Microgame Project Screenshot

Project Overview

Escape the Forgotten Prison is a solo-developed text adventure created entirely in C#. Built from the ground up as a personal project, it combines programming, storytelling, and design into one cohesive experience. The player explores an abandoned prison, moving step by step across an ASCII-rendered map while uncovering the story hidden within its walls.

Gameplay

Developed as a one-person project, every aspect — from map generation to the riddle system — was crafted manually. Players can examine rooms, collect and use items, and solve puzzles that reveal fragments of the prison’s mysterious past. The game focuses on immersion through text and atmosphere rather than visuals or combat.
