A daring new mystery awaits these school holidays

Once a celebrated detective, you’ve been framed for a crime you didn’t commit! In order to prove your innocence, join your guide to uncover who did it and escape to receive your pardon!

Through Pentridge Prison’s notorious former H Division, escapees will learn about real life escape attempts, and then using their skills of deduction, find a way out!

Every twist in this interactive adventure brings the infamous (and at times grim) story of Pentridge Prison to life. This is history, but not as you expect to learn it.

The Story

You and your team have been marched through the gates of H-Division and accused of a crime you know you didn’t commit. The iron doors slam shut. The Warder’s Footsteps echo. Somewhere in the shadows, the real culprit waits, confident you’ll never uncover the truth.

Can you find the real culprit before time runs out?

The Mission

Armed with sharp minds, you must dive deep into one of Australia’s most notorious prison divisions a colourful and mischievous characters who spent time here. Hidden clues lie tucked behind heavy doors, and secret messages are scribbled where no guard is looking. Your mission is simple:

Crack the clues, uncover the real crook, and prove your innocence — then earn your pardon and break free before time runs out.

If you tackled PrisonBreak Explorers 1, prepare to level up. But be warned: the Warder says this mission is tougher and packed with challenges that will test even the cleverest minds.

Designed for children aged 6–12 years, PrisonBreak Explorers is a chance for families to step inside H-Division, normally reserved for ages 16+, and dive into a gripping, age-appropriate history brought to life by your guide, The Warder.
