Hamster Escape: Prison
By Tufty Fluff
Hamster Escape: Prison puts a small pixel hamster in a striped prison uniform and asks you to get him out. Each room is a brick chamber with ladders, platforms and a yellow key you need before the door will help you. Tufty Fluff built it in Construct 3, and it runs free in your desktop browser with no download.

How to Play Hamster Escape: Prison
Every room is a self-contained puzzle: find the key, then reach the door. The key sits somewhere awkward — across a gap, on the far side of a chamber, or in a room with a guard — and the hamster has to cross platforms and ladders to reach it.
The opening rooms double as a tutorial. Numbered lines of text sit at the top of the screen and explain the next skill as you need it, including an on-screen prompt showing which key makes the hamster climb a ladder. Later lines warn you that a path may be narrow, or that the key should only be taken while the pink guard is facing the other way, which turns some rooms into timing and reaction tests rather than pure navigation.
The pixel art keeps everything readable: red brick walls, dark blue background, a bright yellow key and a heavy wooden door marking the exit.
Tips
- Locate the yellow key before you start moving — the route to the door usually runs through it.
- Read the numbered tutorial line at the top of the screen; it tells you what the room is testing before you attempt it.
- In the guard room, watch the pink guard's facing direction and only move for the key when it is looking away.
- Narrow platform paths are deliberate — take them one step at a time instead of rushing across.
Features
- Built-in tutorial that introduces one skill per room
- Puzzle rooms mixed with reaction and timing tests
- Pixel-art prison setting with ladders, platforms and locked doors
- A guard you have to avoid while grabbing the key
