Roblox Dig to Escape All Endings Guide

Dig to Escape for Roblox continues the age-old tradition of user-created jailbreak game modes that goes back to at least the late nineties, introducing the high-stakes, cat-and-mouse tension to a new generation of gamers. The concept is simple: you’re a prisoner locked up in a high-security prison that’s trying to get out. As you might expect for a game called Dig to Escape, your route to freedom involves a lot of clawing through dirt.

There are now three ways to beat Dig to Escape:

There’s the Mineshaft Ending, which is the original ending and involves digging down as deep as you can.

Then the newer Janitor Ending, which sees you using an Illegal Card to break into the security room, sneak your way into a vent, and collect batteries to return power to the electric exit door.

The latest ending is the Kitchen Ending, which involves sneaking through the back of the cafeteria to escape by the rooftop. Down below, we’ve put together complete step-by-step breakdowns for completing each ending.

Dig to Escape is constantly being updated with new endings. Check back here regularly for guides on how to get them!

How do I get the Mineshaft Ending in Dig to Escape?

One big hint: read the name of the game! You just have to dig as far down as you can to escape. The process involves two major sections:

  1. Dig through all the layers of dirt beneath the floor of your prison cell
  2. Complete the chase sequence at the very end

To obtain this ending, you just have to play the game as originally intended.

Quick Tips

  • You can get out and trade with the NPCs, so long as you get back inside a prison cell (with its door closed!) before the guard gets his hands on you.
  • Spend most of your energy digging straight down to cut through the dirt faster.
  • Use up as much energy as possible before lunchtime comes around, as eating lunch replenishes your energy.
  • You can access the other prison cells at night by going through the vent in your cell.
  • Dynamite is very useful for breaking through the extra-tough final layers of dirt.
  1. There’s exposed dirt under the floor of your prison cell. Open it up whenever the guard isn’t looking and start digging.
  2. As you dig, you’ll come across items that you can sell to the Trader NPCs in the prison. You can find these NPCs inside the other prison cells. Selling items grants you Toilet Paper, which can be used to buy goods from the Traders, including higher level gear, which you’ll need to break through the lower levels of dirt.
  3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until you break through the final, lowest layer of dirt. Falling through this level of dirt triggers a chase sequence.
  4. The chase sequence is super easy. Just run toward the exit, avoiding obstacles along the way. Whatever happens, do not turn around—this slows you down and could end your run. Climb up the mine shaft at the very end to complete the Mineshaft ending.
  5. Enjoy the sweet taste of victory!

How do I get the Janitor Ending in Dig to Escape?

The Janitor Ending was released on December 7 and allows for an alternative way to escape from prison. If you manage to escape using this method, you’ll get the Janitor Ending Badge as reward.

There are three main sections to getting the Janitor Ending:

  1. Collect 200 Toilet Paper to buy the Illegal Card
  2. Sneak your way through the vents to the power room
  3. Complete a stealth mini-game

Everything depends on getting the Illegal Card, so you’ll be spending most of your time digging for items to trade for Toilet Paper.

Quick Tips

  • Ideally, you’ll want a large storage bag and a shovel. These speed up your digging so you can find valuable items faster.
  • You can finish this even faster by playing with friends. One person will be carrier to hold all Toilet Paper and valuables while the others dig and trade.
  • The Speedster class makes the stealth mini-game section much easier.
  1. Dig through the dirt in your cell. Make sure to get every piece of soil in there so you don’t miss anything valuable. Don’t bother spending Toilet Paper (TP) to get the late-game gear, as you won’t need to dig into the lower layers.
  2. Trade anything you find that won’t help you dig faster.
  3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until you have at least 200 TP.
  4. Once you have 200 TP, talk to the Trader NPCs and buy an Illegal Card from one of them. If none of them have it, wait until the next day for their inventories to refresh.
  5. With the Illegal Card in your inventory, enter the vent in your cell. Go all the way through to the toilets at the very end.
  6. Exit the toilets and take a right to find the Security Room. Use the Illegal Card to unlock the door.
  7. Grab the ladder leaning against the left-hand wall. Don’t worry about the guard in there—he isn’t paying attention.
  8. With the ladder in hand, exit the Security Room and enter the Janitor’s room. The entrance is right across the door to the Toilets.
  9. Inside you’ll find a vent right next to the doorway. Drop the ladder below the vent and use it to get inside. Follow the vent all the way to the end. You’ll drop into the power room, which triggers the next stage of your great escape: the stealth mini-game.
  10. There’s a fuse box in this room. The electricity’s out and you need to give it batteries to power the electric door that you’ll escape through.
  11. Some of the batteries can be found in the smaller rooms, which you have to unlock by using the Illegal Card. Go around collecting the batteries scattered throughout this area, but watch out for the roaming security guard. If you get caught, it’s back to your cell. If you’re playing with a friend, it’s safest to do this part alone, otherwise you risk the guard catching one of you.
  12. Once you have all the batteries, put them into the fuse box. This will turn on the power and unlock the exit.
  13. Walk through the exit and enjoy the sweet taste of victory!

How do I get the Kitchen Ending in Dig to Escape?

The Kitchen Ending was released on December 15 and adds yet another route to escape. This time, the road to freedom leads us to the back of the cafeteria, where a new door awaits leading to the kitchen. Eventually, you’ll make your way up to the roof of the prison, where a heart-pounding chase ensues.

There are three sections to the Kitchen Ending:

  1. Gathering Toilet Paper to buy a Keycard and a Crowbar
  2. Sneaking through the facility to access the top of the facility
  3. A chase scene across the rooftops

The mechanics of the Kitchen Ending are very similar to the Janitor Ending. You collect Toilet Paper to buy a key item (two in this ending), then make your way to the exit without getting caught. Here’s a step-by-step rundown on how to do it:

  1. As always, start digging. Your goal is to sell everything you find to get 300 TP to complete this ending. Spend 200 TP to get a Keycard from one of the prisoners. If none of the prisoners have a Keycard on them, check again the next day. You’ll need the last 100 TP later.
  2. Take the Keycard to the Cafeteria. You’ll find a brand-new door labeled “Kitchen” in the back of the room to your left.
  3. Once inside the Kitchen, go all the way to the back of the room to find the door to the freezer. Inside, you’ll find a worker holding a Crowbar. Spend 100 TP to get the Crowbar.
  4. Use the Crowbar to break open the vent in the back of the freezer room, then crawl into the vents. Make your way all to the end and exit the vents. Head up the ramps to find the door to the roof.
  5. Walking through the rooftop door triggers a cutscene. Just like the Mineshaft ending, you’ll have to run for your life as a cop chases you down. Keep going, avoid the obstacles, and don’t look back.
  6. Sweet victory is yours!
