Prison Break: The Conspiracy

Prison Break - The Conspiracy is an okay stealth-action-mix but only for the fans of the TV-series.

Prison Break: The Conspiracy shows you in the right way the whole prison and the story of Michael. Unfortunately the graphics scores far below and the gameplay is a little disappointing. These are the factors, the final grade of this game is nearly enough.

Flawed in so many ways, this feels like a rushed product, and even though the voice acting is by most of the actors from the show, it feels as uninspired as the rest of the game.

As the plodding narrative progresses, these repetitive fighting and stealth tasks grow quickly tedious.

If you want to live a long and healthy life, avoid at all costs.

You'll pray for an early release from this cheap and nasty, and strangely belated, TV tie-in.

No matter how big a Prison Break fan you are, no matter how forgiving you can be, The Conspiracy is an abject failure on all counts.

As a fan of the show, I was happy about this console release. Sadly the game is way too short and repetitive. Overall rating: 6.3.

First off this game is a lot more enjoyable if you have watched the series (or at least season 1) You take control of an undercover agent in fox river penitentiary, sent to investigate Michael Scholfield. The story of the game revolves around the events that unfold in season 1, it is put together well and the outcome is an amazing story that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Gameplay is somewhat average, involving a basic cover to cover stealth system, and very simplistic fighting mechanics. It was nice to hear the dubbing done by most of the original actors, but characters seemed too lifeless. You will often see scenes from the series play out in-game and realise that you are sometime a cause of those events or deal with the aftermath. Overall a solid story with good twists but gameplay seems last gen. 9/10 for story, 6/10 for graphics, 5/10 for gameplay.

Haven´t watched the series and got Prison Break: The Conspiracy as a present. The game has nearly nothing to offer. Lazy gameplay, boring story and clunky controls destroy the interesting setting.

Mediocre is the best way to describe this game. It's very average across the board and would really only appeal to hardcore fans. The stealth system works well enough but lacks any imagination. Getting spotted is instant game over. Theres also a simplistic boxing mechanic for the few action oriented portions. I'd suggest giving this game a rent if your a big fan of prison break and feel like sneaking around some of Michael Scofields old haunts.

While I somewhat enjoyed it, does not hide the fact the game is truly awful. The voice acting is terrible, the movement isn’t great, the fighting mechanics are just painful to use. The absolute worst are the quick time events. Unbelievably AWFUL, the game has you spamming the Y button and if you do not stop at the exact right time to press the other button that comes up, you will fail the sequence. Beyond annoying, luckily I fought through the pain and finished the game, easy gamer score and a unique idea are the only reasons it gets a 3 from me.
