I haven't seen this game reach $50+ in recent memory:

Is the game any good?

No clue. I've never used mine. I'll probably sell it.

$76 for that game is absolutely crazy . . . still, they do tend to get between $10-25 on a regular basis.



As far as the game goes . . . it rocks!  Well, that is said based on the memories of an 11 year old kid . . . but my friends and I used to play it quite often (along with Viking Gods and Vampyre).  



I've been looking for one on and off for awhile for purely nostalgic reasons (but I'm pretty cheap, so I haven't come across one at a price I'd like to pay)

I didn't save the link, but a shrinked copy just went for $31 (a little low). Unshrinked go for $15-25 - beyond is right on.



My friends and I have play Escape every year at Gen Con on Sunday before heading home. It has been a tradition since the game came out!



We get loads of people stopping to take look. It is a blast. Short and fun.

(of course I haven't been to GC in the last two years so the tradition is on hold).


And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

Never played it myself but I am a huge fan of the movie.  Probably one of my top ten.  DL, if you want to get rid of it and have a price in mind, PM me....I'd love to have one.
