About Escape from Africa
Your character starts the game locked up, and every level is one more step of the escape.
The rule that matters most is simple. If the natives spot you, you lose the level. Staying out of sight while you follow the markers is the main skill the game asks for.

There are two kinds of rankings. The main leaderboard counts how many levels you have completed, and each level also has its own leaderboard based on time. That split gives the game an arcade side, since you can chase progress on one board and speed on the other.
Key features
- You play a prisoner getting away from a cage, level by level, in an adventure game.
- Purple markers show you the way through each level.
- Getting spotted by the natives costs you the level.
- A main leaderboard counts how many levels you have cleared.
- Every level has its own leaderboard for the fastest time.
Tips & tricks
- Check where the natives are looking before you move, because a single sighting ends the level.
- If you only care about the main leaderboard, play slowly and safely. It counts cleared levels, not speed.
- Go for speed on levels you already know well, since their times are ranked separately.
