The Advertising Blurb

Super fit and desperate for freedom, Monty makes his daring escape from Scudmore Prison. Hounded by the bastions of law and order, our frightened hero finds refuge with the criminal underworld who offer him his chance to breathe fresh air and bask in the sunlight once again.

Moving from safehouse to hideout to underground lair, Monty must select the correct five elements of his freedom kit from the many he's offered and not miss out on the hidden gold coins that will make him a mole of leisure.

At last he's free but can he make the cross-channel ferry on time?

Review:

Some nice Great Escape music but the gameplay is irritating in the extreme.

The fact that you have to select the escape kit also means that getting near the end, only to find you have made a poor choice, is hugely frustrating.
