Welcome to a new kind of Cell Block Paradox. The rules are different here. So is the goal. Your only mission is to escape, but the path isn't what you think it is. Cell Block Paradox challenges you to confront the impossible. To escape, you must dig, but not with your hands. Not with anything you can see. The walls are not what they seem, and the ground is not where it should be. The paradox is the key to your freedom. But be careful; in this prison, the paradox is a trap. Are you ready to dig your way out? Or will you get lost in the paradox?
