Play Henry Stickmin: Escaping the Prison Online for Free

Escaping the Prison is the Henry Stickmin game where it all begins. Henry is locked in a prison cell, and a friend sends him a cake with a hidden item inside. You pick which item to use, then keep making choices to break him out. Right choices move the story on; wrong ones lead to very funny fails. It is free to play in your browser.

Developer: PuffballsUnited  |  Genre: Stickman, Adventure, Choices  |  Price: Free

The game is animated by PuffballsUnited and released on StickPage. It is the game that comes before Fleeing the Complex in the Henry Stickmin series.

Choosing an Item From the Cake

Your first choice is the most important one. The cake hides several items: a file, a cellphone, a drill, an energy drink, a teleporter and a rocket launcher. Each one starts a different story. Only some of them lead to freedom, and the others lead to hilarious fails.

It is played entirely with the mouse, so it works best on a computer or Chromebook.

The Winning Paths

There are three main ways to win, often called the Legal Way, the Sneaky Way and the Badass Way. The cellphone, the drill and the file (on the cell door) are the items that lead to these escapes. Finding all three is part of the fun.

Funny Fails

With 36 choices, there are lots of ways for Henry to fail, and most of them are jokes. Many players purposely pick wrong choices just to see what happens. Don't worry about failing; you can always go back and try another option.

The Henry Stickmin Series

Escaping the Prison is an early game in the Henry Stickmin series, which follows a clumsy hero through choice-based adventures. If you like it, try Fleeing the Complex, where Henry ends up in an even bigger prison.

How to See Everything

A good plan is to try each cake item once, just to see where it leads. Then go back to the three items that work and follow each escape to the end. Along the way, pick the silly options too; some of the funniest moments in the game only appear if you choose the wrong thing on purpose. The game is short, so you can explore every path in one sitting. Many players enjoy it with friends or siblings, taking turns to guess which choice will work and laughing when it doesn't.

Is Escaping the Prison Good for Kids?

It is a comedy game, but some fails show cartoon violence. It is best for kids around 10 and up, and there is no chat. More advice for families is on our Information for Parents page. For independent age ratings and reviews of games, parents can also visit Common Sense Media.
