About this game

See how long you can survive in a sprawling facility, where hundreds of fellow prisoners are trying to get through each day in real-time. Develop relationships with an advanced dialogue system that allows you to start conversations before the drama comes to you. Should you choose violence, a combat system perfected by wrestling lets you express yourself with your fists! Hundreds of fully interactive props can be equipped in either hand as tools or weapons - including mind-blowing gunplay that allows you to shoot at ANY moment. Reinforced by a creative crafting system, you've only ever run out of ammo when you've run out of ideas.

Just when you think you've seen it all, a whole other police role challenges you to tackle crime from the other side of the fence - keeping existing prisoners in order while patrolling the streets for new ones! An extended outside world makes life worth living, with a wider range of vehicles and animals to explore it. All now presented with higher resolution 3D visuals, a smoother frame rate, and a wider variety of camera angles to enjoy cinematic moments.

Upon upgrading to the fully "unlocked" experience, an inbuilt editor empowers you to save your changes to each character to make the world your own. You can then blow off steam in a special "Fight Scene" mode - where you select WHO fights WHERE and with WHAT to see who survives! This action can also be enjoyed at a smoother 60fps frame rate on compatible devices, with no ads for paying customers.
The toughest prison sim in the yard is back to serve its 3rd sentence!

You can literally fight every single person here. I stomped Diddy TWICE and on one of those times, Tupac joined in with me. Automatic 10/10. But, I have a few gripes. You can't really customize your character from the jump and have to go to some closet to do so I think? The controls are kinda difficult to get a hang of especially on a mobile port, and...Ads. But, I'm aware you have to pay a subscription to gain access to all of these things+ad removal. I'm not complaining though, as it is cheap.

Very fun but feels a bit clunky, theres some clone dialogue still leftover from Old School, like when you get let off for assault and the judge says "It's a violent world beyond the school gates". Sometimes you go to snatch something from someone's hand, and your character will do a full 180 and take something they weren't pointing at, messing up crucial moments. The game is still an exciting novelty the other 95% of the time this isn't happening.

Mdickie is a Godsend to gamers, love the fact with premium there's no more ads it's made a huge difference and my playing time has increased massively. One suggestion though is when I start new game often I'm the only inmate without a cellmate in the North block which gets boring during lockdown if you have full energy, if you have a cellmate then lockdown periods are the best times. Alternatively an awesome feature to the premium version woukd be the ability to choose your cell mates
