How to unlock the On Top of the World achievement in The Escapists - Definitive Guide
This is a missable achievement. From your room go through the metal detector and head up on your left you will see a large room with shark infested water in it. To get into this room you will need to get a cyan key of one of the guards.
Before you start knocking out any of the guards make sure you are ready to make a copy of the key. You will need toothpaste, talc, toothbrush and lighter. now you will need to combine these items to make putty and molten plastic. Toothpaste+Talc= Putty and Toothbrush+Lighter= molten plastic.
Now that you have these made knock out the guards until you find the one with the cyan key, now take the key and use it with the putty to make a key mold and then use the mold with the molten plastic to make a plastic cyan key. NOW THIS IS IMPORTANT PUT THE REAL KEY BACK ON THE GUARD. Otherwise when the guard wakes up you will put the prison on lock down and lose any hidden contraband that you may have!!!!

This is not missable. Missable implies you'd need to do a whole new playthrough in order to get it. The escapists saves your game at the end of each day and you can always reload your last save even after beating the level. There's nothing preventing you from breaking into the villain room and sitting in the chair if you missed it the first time around.

In the top left area of the level is a large office belonging to the villain that controls this underground lair. In the middle of his office is a large desk and a large chair. In order to unlock this trophy you must get inside his office and sit on his chair. There are two ways in which you can gain access to this area of the level. By far the easiest is making a copy of the blue key and walking through the main door of the office. The second option involves creating a Sturdy Pickaxe and digging your way into the office. The latter option is a lot more risky and involves a lot more work and planning and is thus not advised as the preferred method.
The easiest way to sit on the villain’s chair involves making a copy of the blue key. You will first need to make the following items:
The easiest way to sit on the villain’s chair involves making a copy of the blue key. You will first need to make the following items:
- Melted Plastic = Lighter + Plastic Fork
- Putty = Toothpaste + Talcum Powder
- Blue Key Mold = Putty + Blue Key
- Blue Key Copy = Blue Key Mold + Melted Plastic
Once these items are made you will also want to have a high strength stat as you will need to beat up a few guards in search of the key. This can achieved by lifting weights at the gym area of the level. In is also advised that you have a decent weapon, such as nunchucks or a crowbar as this will make beating up a guard even easier. These can be obtained from other inmates by either stealing or buying them.
Now that you have the above items (Melted Plastic and Putty), you will want to start beating up guards in order to find the blue key. Once you find the blue key, quickly make a copy of it by crafting it with the Putty (Blue Key Mold). Make sure that you put the key straight back in the guard's inventory, otherwise once he regains consciousness you will be sent to solitary confinement and you’ll lose your items. At this point it is also advised that you steal the guards uniform. Now combine the newly crafted Key Mould with the Plastic Mould to make a copy of the blue key, put on the guard uniform and go into the villain's office and sit on his chair.
Important Note: It is advisable when in the office, that you also obtain the Dirty Glass item required to make the Fake Fingerprints. Please refer to the Spy Hard walkthrough for more information.
The following video shows how to obtain this trophy using the above described method:
