About
The Storyline
The federal prison of Alcatraz, surrounded by the waters of San Francisco Bay, housed some of America's most dangerous and notorious felons. Escaping Alcatraz is no easy feat, and the few that have tried were unsuccessful. As guards in the nation's strongest prison, it is your duty to uphold Alcatraz's stalwart reputation.
The Plot
After returning to his office, the Warden discovers that all ten keys to the prison have gone missing! He has summoned you and his most fearless guards to help find the missing keys before any prisoners use them to attempt an escape. Retrace the Warden's steps to find the keys and save Alcatraz from going into full lockdown.
Your Mission
Prison protocol indicates that you have 60 minutes to locate and return all of the Warden's keys or the prison will have to go into lockdown. If you are able to find the keys in time, you will have to complete an additional investigation to find the prisoner who stole the keys, and make sure they pay for their crime.
