You can do just about anything in BitLife—including committing crimes. Many achievements are tied to committing crimes (such as robbing a train ) but there are just a few that require you to get out of prison. Escaping prison in BitLife isn't easy, but with these tips and tricks you'll be a pro in no time.
Quick Tips for Escaping Prison in BitLife
The key to escaping prison in BitLife is to get the guard trapped behind some walls. The guard will prioritize moving horizontally over vertically, so if you can trap the guard behind a wall he won't be able to move closer to you. This can buy you some space so you can get out of prison and get your achievements.
