Neverness to Everness Prison Break Guide: All 5 Escape Methods + Free Prison Outfit Farming

So you got arrested again. At this point the police might as well hand you a loyalty card. Commit one more crime and your next sentence comes free. The twist is that prison in Neverness to Everness is not really punishment. It is content.

This guide breaks down all five prison escape methods, including optimal routes, required items, and execution details, along with a full explanation of the free prison outfit farming system.

Standard Release Methods

Before discussing escape routes, two legitimate exit options exist:

1. Serve Time (7 Days)
   Complete daily routines (meals and sleep) to be released automatically.
2. Pay a Fine
   Speak to a guard and pay to leave immediately.

Both are low-efficiency options and not recommended for progression.

Important rule:

Contraband System: Items do not respawn daily, so every item matters.

Pick up everything. Soap, cards, painkillers—it all feeds into the late-game trading system.

 

Escape Method 1: Poster Tunnel

Steps:

• Collect spoons*2 during lunch( 2 days)
• At curfew, dig behind the poster
• Repeat for 2–3 days until tunnel opens
• Navigate camera system carefully

Getting caught resets the entire day, which makes the first escape particularly significant: it's the one most players discover first, and successfully completing it rewards both money and a magazine that becomes important later in the game.

 

Escape Method 2: Rooftop Rope Escape

Concept: Gather materials + steal key → escape from watchtower

Steps:

• Collect bed sheets + prison uniforms (rope materials)

• Loot all cells during free time
• Steal watchtower key from guard office
• Sleep → next day choose “clean watchtower”
• Access rooftop → escape

This escape requires thorough looting, but in return, it stands as one of the most consistent methods available.

 

Escape Method 3: Fake Death

Steps:

1. Talk to Living Fossil (needs anime figure)

2. Buy Asahi Doll from Spider (1-day wait)

3. Trade → receive paralysis drug

4. Fake illness → go to infirmary

5. Use drug → escape

This multi-day setup makes for one of the most unique escape routes in the game.

 

Escape Method 4: Acid Sewer Escape

Steps:

• Trigger infirmary visit

• Steal corrosive acid

• Go through hidden cafeteria door → courtyard
• Melt sewer bars

• Wait 1 day → return → escape

This escape requires solid map knowledge to find the hidden path, which is easy to miss.

 

Escape Method 5: Electric Blackout

Steps:

• Help bullied NPC (basketball yard event)

• Find him on 3rd floor

• Give spoon → triggers blackout
• Move through shadows
• Avoid guards + spotlights
• Reach dock → escape

Key Mechanics:

• Wall-hugging avoids detection
• Spotlights = instant failure

This is the most skill-based escape and feels the closest to a traditional stealth game.

 

Secret Prison Outfit

This is the real objective.

Core System: Daily Trade Loop

Step 1: Collect Items: Soap、Playing cards and Random contraband

Step 2: Exchange for Painkillers

• Crocodile → Soap
• Gord → Cards
• Squidball → Weekly magazines

Step 3: Trade at Spider

• Painkillers → Items → Prison Outfit

Important Mechanics:

• Items do NOT respawn freely
• System is time-gated (daily reset)
• You must grind consistently

In the end, you're not escaping prison — you're farming it.

 

Rewards & Progression Logic

Every unique escape grants:

• Money
• Magazine (used in trade chain)

You are expected to escape multiple times. Yes, the optimal strategy is literally:

Escape → commit crime → go back → repeat

 

Conclusion

The prison system here is not a side mechanic, it is essentially a roguelike loop disguised as punishment. The fact that the best outfit in the system requires you to repeatedly grind jail time is honestly kind of hilarious.

If you want to speed up the process or skip some of the grind-heavy loops, you can consider Neverness to Everness top up on LDShop. It's a practical way to get resources faster, stay efficient with your time, and focus more on exploring all escape routes instead of repeating basic farming cycles.
