Introduction:

 

Escape Plan is a game with a simple concept that is worked out by geniuses! Lil and Laarg are captured by Bakuki and you have to help them to escape. To do so you have to guide them through a series of rooms/levels with traps. To make it through the levels you have to reach the exit with them. You will guide them through the levels by using the front touchscreen, the rear touchpad or by tilting the Vita. This game uses the functions extensively but in a good way! It will feel pretty natural by using them.

 

Note: It's possible to complete all trophies except Death Comes For Ye in one playthrough by selecting the challenge mode from the start and collecting everything during that playthrough but to unlock A Clean Escape you will need to die less than 20 times while you complete the game in challenge mode. This is close to impossible when you would play without tricks because you will die a lot while exploring how things work! You would also need to 3-star all levels on that playthrough and you're probably going to die a lot while trying this. Due to this I'm not going into more detail on how you have to complete it in one step, you will need to use Section Select anyway to die in each level after you finished the story.

 

Step - 1 Complete the story:

 

Just play through the story and complete every level. You will want to focus on dying at least once in each level and search for as many warning signs as possible. You can replay every level a few times to 3-star it as well. When the level contains sheep you should try to use them in your advance. When the level contains minions you should try to kill at least one of them, most of the times you will need to do that to progress anyway. If you're stuck on a level you can skip it but keep in mind that you need to complete them using section select to receive the story-related trophies.

 

Finishing this step should earn you:

  • Trippinhttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png
  • Splatter Festhttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

 

Step 2 - Complete challenge mode with less than 20 deaths:

 

This is probably the hardest part of the game (next to 3-starring every level). You will want to finish the whole story in challenge mode with less than 20 deaths. See A Clean Escape for more information on this step/trophy.

 

Finishing this step should earn you:

 

  • A Clean Escapehttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_gold.png

 

Step 3 - Clean-up using Section Select:

 

If you missed a trophy you can use Section Select to complete the requirements. With exception of A Clean Escape for which you will need to replay the whole story in challenge mode.

 

 

Trophy Guide

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1154/01.jpgA Clean Escapehttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_gold.png

In challenge mode, complete the entire game in less than 20 deaths combined for Lil and Laarg

 

This is Missable.

 

Challenge mode is a separate mode that lets you play through all the levels of the main game but it challenges you to die less than 20 times for Lil and Laarg COMBINED. You can find this mode by tapping on the television in the upper right corner of the start screen. You can see how many times you died by the number the characters have on their belly or you can check your current total when you start the challenge mode. You don't have to do this in one sitting as you can pause and continue later. I suggest you do this after completing the game for the first time and train in each level via section-select before you try it in Challenge mode. Good luck!

 

Sidenote: It looks like they will add weekly challenges, you can find these by sliding the start-screen of the Challenge mode to the left.

 

Luckily there is a trick that makes this trophy a lot easier! With thanks to uncharted86:

This one can be done very easily with only a few deaths.

 

I found out that if you press :start: as soon as you die (or as soon as you know you will die) and then hit restart (the recycle icon) then it will not add a death to your death count. The only thing to be aware of is that you have to hit :start: very quickly before it reloads the level and adds a death to your death count.

 

I just completed the challenge mode doing this trick and got the trophy. In the end it showed only 5 deaths on the characters even though I had more than 20 :)

Note: When I tried this trick and restarted a level a lot, an occasionally death was added even when I always hit :start: before the level reloaded.

Collect all the warning signs

 

There are a total of 30 warning signs you can find through-out the different levels. Just tap on them to collect them.

 

You can check which warning signs you have collected by tapping the board on the lower right side of the start-screen (with the 3 bulletpoints followed by a line). There you can select "Collectible Signs" and all the warning signs are shown in the order they appear in the game. The ones you're missing are shown with a gray border. You can also see how many warning signs you have found in each section of the game by using section select. The total number of warning signs in that section of the game is shown also shown.

 

A detailed textguide for all warning signs is included at the end of the guide HERE.

An external guide made by Nobyl Chickan and that includes images can be found HERE.

Earn 3 stars in every level

 

GLITCHED

 

For this trophy you have to earn 3 stars in each level of the story, this is the maximum amount of stars you can get for a level. This is the hardest trophy next to the one for completing Challenge mode with less than 20 deaths. The amount of stars you get for a level is based on the number of gestures (actions) you do and the time you need to complete the level. You have to try and finish the level with the least number of gestures you can and don’t forget about the time. The biggest problem with this is that you're probably going to make accidental gestures like tapping the back screen while you’re holding the vita. Also, sometimes tilting the Vita counts as a gesture and if you tilt the Vita in another direction, it counts as an extra gesture but this is not always the case...

 

You can use Section Select to check for which levels you have 3 stars. The overview screen of a set of levels shows the amount of stars you have got for those levels and the total amount you have to earn. When you select a set of levels, you will get an overview of all the levels in it and show 3 black stars if you earned 3 stars for that level. If you didn't earn 3 stars it will show the amount of stars you have in black and add extra white stars.

 

I suggest you get familiar with the level until you know all the traps and then just try to eliminate as many gestures as possible. Sometimes a level can be completed with only 3 gestures while you would initially use 10. You should also keep the time in mind and execute your gestures as soon as possible. Sometimes you can speed things up by sliding over the character to let it start walking and disabling traps afterwards. This is especially useful in the first few levels since the characters are usually far away from the first trap.

 

Another useful trick in levels with Lil or Laarg in a bubble, is to make circles on the screen without lifting you finger off the screen, instead of separate swipes for moving the bubble. This way only 1 (or even no) gestures will be added. With thanks to oceansand and CloudLionheartz

 

A list with reference times and gestures for 3-starring each level is included at the end of the guide, HERE.

A video guide for 3 starring each section is made by alkeels and can be found HERE.

 

This trophy seems to be glitched! The problem is that some people don't get 3-stars for the level named "Free Range Sheep" (and others) while they completed it in less time and with less gestures than other people who got 3 stars.

More info in this thread: http://www.ps3trophies.org/forum/escape-plan/148044-free-range-sheep-3-stars.html.

 

UPDATE:

Patch 1.01 fixes the problems with 3-starring levels. From now on the stars are only based on the time you got and not on the number of gestures you made.

Die in every level in Escape Plan

 

To earn this trophy you have to die in each level of the game. This might seem trivial but sometimes you need to be inventive to die in a level!

 

I suggest you to keep a list of the levels where you were not able to die and try them again afterwards. Sometimes you will get new ideas later on in the game. If you didn't keep a list you can just start with the first level and die. After the respawn, you can use the pause menu to skip the level and continue to the next one. By using this method you can go through all levels pretty quick. The trophy will unlock as soon as you died in all levels.

 

A detailed guide on how to die in each level is included at the end of the guide, HERE.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1154/05.jpgA Lil Problemhttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Kill Lil in 5 different ways

 

You will probably earn this by just playing through the game. To earn this trophy you have to kill Lil in 5 different ways.

 

Some examples:

 

  • Get him shot by an arrow from a minion
  • Trip over a brick/broom/hammer
  • Let him fall on the ground from a high position
  • Crush him under the door
  • Let him hit a ventilator
  • Run into electricity
  • Run into lava

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1154/06.jpgA Laarg Problemhttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Kill Laarg in 5 different ways

 

You will probably earn this by playing through the game. To earn this trophy you have to kill Lil in 5 different ways.

 

Some examples:

 

  • Get him shot by an arrow from a minion
  • Let him fall to the ground from a high position
  • Crush him under the door
  • Let him fall through a hole in the ground without mattress on the ground
  • Push his crate off the conveyor belt by tapping the back screen

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1154/07.jpgTest Subjectshttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Use sheep as test subjects in 6 levels

 

For this trophy you have to use the sheep in a level to your advantage or kill them.

 

Because I can't replay the game for trophies (1 PSN Account for each Vita :() I can't exactly check which levels with sheep count and which don't so tell me what level you were playing when the trophy popped!

 

The levels with sheep:

 

  • Kiln Me Softly: If you do nothing some sheep will be transported into the fire.
  • Remain Seated Please: One minion will be killing sheep.
  • The Grey Mile: You can lure a sheep into the electricity (verified, thanks to ck2875).
  • Who Darted? The minion will kill the sheep.
  • Free Range Sheep: You will use the sheep to push down the floor button.
  • Falling for you: You will use the sheeps to break your fall so you don’t die.
  • You're My Gyro: Turn the electricity close to sheep to the left. Lure the sheep on the spot where the electricity was originally hitting the ground. Turn the electricity back to the right so it hits the sheep. It might be easier to lure the sheep on another spot and turn the electricity to that spot but the sheep won't run into the electricity by itself. You have to turn the electricity to a spot where the sheep stands.
  • It’s Raining Sheep: You will need them to open the door. Just lure them of the conveyor belt to the lower part of the level (while the "buttons" are not retracted) and lure them on the buttons to open the door.
  • Floater: You can use the sheep to break your fall when you have to go down because you didn't make it to the top.
  • Ewe are Fired: You will be using sheep to put on the floorbuttons on the lower level.
  • Beware the Claw! If you do nothing sheep will be dropped on the spikes.
  • The Bodyguard: Lure a sheep on the elevator and let the elevator go down. The minion will kill it with an arrow.

Trip up Lil in 5 rooms

 

For this trophy you have to trip Lil in 5 different rooms. To trip him you have to let him fall over something like, for example, a brick or a broom.

 

The 5 levels that I used:

 

Level: Exit Stage Left

Tap the exit sign a few times till it drops. Walk Lil to the right and he wil trip over the exit sign.

 

Level: The Little Things

Just walk to the right and Lil will trip over the brick on the ground.

 

Level: Tap That

Just walk to the right and Lil will trip over the brick on the ground.

 

Level: Mind the gap

Let the broom fall on the ground by tapping the back screen. Walk Lil to the right and he will trip over the broom.

 

Level: Rocket Man

Just walk Lil to the right and he will trip over the brick.

Kill minions in 12 different rooms

 

Minions are the small black guys that look similar to Lil and Laarg. You can kill them by luring them into a trap or letting them kill each other. To lure them to a certain spot you have to tap the back screen on that spot and they’ll come to that place. It’s also possible to let them kill each other by letting them shoot arrows to each other. You have to lure one minion so it's in the shooting line of the other minion. As soon as the other minion shoots an arrow, he will hit the first minion and it will die. The kill will register even if you don't complete the level.

 

The 12 levels I used:

 

  • Remain Seated Please: On the upper level there is a minion shooting the sheep that fall down. Lure the minion from the right to the left. Now they’ll both try to shoot the dropped sheep and one will kill the other instead of the sheep. This one is not required to complete the level and you will easily miss it!
  • Who Darted?: You will push down the plate so it covers the electricity. Lure a minion on the plate when it's pushed down and when it gets back up, it will kill the minion.
  • Fall Guys: You will squash one when you go down the elevator with Lil and you will kill the other one by luring him on to the turning plates.
  • Final elevation: You can lure the minion on the elevator and then you can spin the fan until it squeezes the minion against the spikes on the ceiling.
  • Pop Top: You can lure one minion on a plate that you can tap so it disappears from under his feet and he falls down. You can tap the first barrel and lure the minion on that barrel. When the barrel retracts, the minion will fall down and die.
  • You're My Gyro: Lure the minion to the left and on the spot where the electricity can hit the ground. Turn the electricity to the right so it hits the minion. The minion won’t run into the electricity by itself, you have to turn the electricity to a spot where the minion stands.
  • Lovin' An Elevator: Spin the fan so the elevator rises. When the elevator is on the level of the minions, lure them on the elevator. Spin the fan even more so the elevator squeezes the minions against the spikes on the ceiling.
  • Who's There: You can lure both minions on the button to their left ones you let it come to the front by tapping the back screen. When the button retracts, the minions will fall and die.
  • Tap Dance: Lure the minion on the extracted vent to the right of him. Tap the vent so it retracts and the minion drops down. If he’s drops on the vent below and doesn’t die, tap that vent too so he drops down and dies.
  • Short Circuit: Disable the electricity by tapping one of the big blocks with the electricity-sign on, to the back. Lure the minion on an electricity maze. Tap the big block back to the front or wait till it automatically comes to the front and enables the electricity again.
  • Second-hand Smoke: Turn the wheel with Laarg until the pointer on the meter is in the dark area, one tap on the pipe will come off and poisoned gas will come out. Hold your finger on the leak and another tap will come off, hold another finger on that leak and continue until the final tap comes off and hits the minion.
  • Fatal Distraction: Disable the electricity by tapping one of the big blocks with the electricity-sign on, to the back. Lure the minion on the electricity maze. Tap the other big block back to the back so the electricity is enabled again.

Escape the Prison

 

Story Related.

 

To earn this trophy you have to complete all levels from Prison Section 1 and Prison Section 2. Beware because you can skip levels but you will have to finish them to earn the trophy. An explanation of how to skip a level is offered by the game when you fail a lot and you can find it in the pause menu. Skipping a level means that you didn’t complete the level by going through the exit. The trophy won’t unlock by finishing the final level of Prison Section 2 if you skipped a level but you can complete a skipped level by replaying it through Level Select and you will earn the trophy once you complete the skipped levels. You can use Level Select to check if you skipped a level. No black and/or white star will be shown on the picture of the level.

A Clean Escapehttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_gold.png (missable)

In challenge mode, complete the entire game in less than 20 deaths combined for Lil and Laarg

 

This one can be done very easily with only a few deaths.

 

I found out that if you press :start: as soon as you die (or as soon as you know you will die) and then hit restart (the recycle icon) then it will not add a death to your death count. The only thing to be aware of is that you have to hit :start: very quickly before it reloads the level and adds a death to your death count.

 

I just completed the challenge mode doing this trick and got the trophy. In the end it showed only 5 deaths on the characters even though I had more than 20 :)

Thanks for the tip! I verified it and it indeed doesn't count the deaths that way. I added it to the guide :)

I didn't get the "Test Subjects" trophy, even after re-trying all 6 levels that you mentioned. Is there any other levels with sheep to re-try?

 

Edit: Started the Challenge Mode and it unlocked when I crushed the sheep in "The Grey Mile." If anyone is having trouble, I recommend trying that level.

Hmm, it might be possible then that the requirement is that they die instead of being used for something... I'll change the guide to add all levels with sheep, too bad I can't retry for myself (one psn per vita :( )

Will we have a visual guide too? Like so show us how to get to the next level etc.

 

I'm not planning to make a video guide for 3-starring each level.

If people request it then I might make a picture-guide for all the collectibles, but they're really not that hard to get once you know in what level you have to search for them.

Just a quick note to the topic starter: there is a level that's glitched, so it's impossible to get the 3 stars there in one playthrough. See this topic for more info: http://www.ps3trophies.org/forum/escape-plan/148044-free-range-sheep-3-stars.html

 

I'm guessing it only occurs when you use the level select. Not sure tho...

 

I got it through using level select, in the beginning I had a lot of trouble to just finish that level and I know I gave up on trying to 3-star it. Afterwards I finished it again using level select. Now I replayed it and got 3 stars with a time of 23 seconds and 14 gestures...

So the cause doesn't seem to be level select, I'll keep an eye on the thread to see if more information shows up :)

can you put your personal difficulty rating please? :) thanks

 

I added my personal rating and I gave it a 5/10. Only thing that can be hard is 3-starring levels (especially the ones with sheep can be a pain) but they are far from impossible!

 

Nice guide :p

I might pick up this game when I buy the vita

 

Thanks! And you should do so :p

I know that they only gave it a 70/100 in the playstation magazine for belgium/the netherlands, but they underrated the game imo!

Just started recording some videos to show the sign locations, included your descriptions of the locations in the video description, crediting you of course. If you have any objections just let me know and I'll change it.

 

Thanks for the guide btw!

 

No problem, do you know that you can make screenshots with the vita? Just press the playstation-button and the start-button at the same time. When you're done you can maybe post them in a thread on here and I'll link to it in the guide. I was originally planning to make screenshots myself, but the problem is more in knowing in what level you have to look, then it is in actually finding the sign...

 

And if you're really into making video's, one thing that's missing in the guide is video's/descriptions for 3-starring each level. So far I only could find a walkthrough from somebody that is playing the game for the very first time (and struggles quite hard)
