Escaper

Escaper is a cancelled PlayStation game by Sony Music Entertainment (Japan). It was slated to be like stealth-based Tomb Raider type game.

Gameplay
Escape was to be a 3D third person action superhero game. You could choose between two heroes, Escaper or Danger, or create your own.

The gameplay was action with puzzles. You would have to escape rooms within the time limit (hence the game's title). The emphasis was on puzzle solving.

Cancellation
Escaper dropped off the radar in 1998. The game was likely cancelled because Sony Music Entertainment was also working on Tenchu: Stealth Assassins. By cancelling Escaper, they focused more resources onto a project they had more faith in.
