About Digging a Hole... with a Spoon... Escape from Alcatraz

Ever wondered: “Could I escape prison with just a spoon?”

You wake up in the bottom floor of Alco-Trash - a grim, forgotten island prison with walls that crumble faster than the inmates. Your only companion is Blue, a voice from the toilet that promises freedom if you keep digging.

DIG YOUR WAY TO CONTRABAND AND FREEDOM
Every scrape of dirt brings you closer to the old sewer tunnels below. Along the way, you’ll find Contraband - all valuable in their own weird way. Trade your junk with Blue to unlock spoon schematics.

MODIFY YOUR SPOON TO SUIT YOUR DIGGING NEEDS
Dig faster, dig bigger, dig deeper, dig cooler - it's up to you!
Combine different types of Heads & Stems to turn your spoon into an absolute beast!

Will you tunnel straight down? Spiral out sideways? Grapple past toxic sludge? It’s your hole.

Reach the sewers, climb the ladder, and freedom is yours. Or is it? There’s always a catch in Alco-Trash.

There’s no timer, no alarms - just you, your spoon, and the dirty secret waiting at the bottom.

Wishlist: Digging a Hole... with a Spoon: Escape from Alcatraz now - your hole isn’t going to dig itself!

“One spoon, infinite dirt, zero dignity.”
