  Escaping prisoners of war pit their skill and bravery against the German SS and police forces. Players must secretly assemble their escape equipment and then tunnel underground or climb out over the roof tops. The SS and police will be examining forged passports or make-shift uniforms. The winner of the game is first to get 3 prisoners to friendly territory. Starting from the escape exits in the castle, avoid the rigorous SS and police patrols then cross safely over the frontier points.
