Nice little touches. I hope they start putting some time into prisoner AI and how smart they are at forming teams or working with staff to make escape attempts. They also need a new class of prisoner that you can only receive in very small numbers "super max" crazy insane guys that arent even able to be mixed with the general population, or ever released. Keeping these guys in should be the last great challenge of the architect who cares about security above all else. That's the most interesting challenge for me anyway. Keeping them in and avoiding riots.

Buy it off Steam or the introversion website. Think it's got a steam sale right now.

I'm not sure I understand the point of PA's "Adventure Mode" but I guess with feature completeness it would be playable.

What, you don't see the point of being able to interact with your prison as a prisoner?

Granted, it's pretty bare-bones, but that doesn't make it pointless, any more than the Chicago Pile was pointless because it couldn't destroy a city.

(yes I just compared Prisoner Mode with nuclear weapons development, fuck you)

There's just no interactivity. You can't choose to punch a guard, fight a prisoner, steal, escape or any of that. I sorta figured a feature like that would be worth waiting on supporting features.

It would be kind of fun to load into an existing prison as a prisoner though, as long as you have the power to do stuff.

RCT 3 maybe. Not in 2 which was of course the best one because nostalgia points.

IMO, what this game needs are gangs.

All respectable prisons have them!

I recall gangs being something they want to work towards. So at least they're going to be in. You know. Eventually.

Yeah, there were supposed to be gang warfare and zoning cell blocks based on gang affiliation. Hoping that's back on the list of to do things.

It's completely unfinished.
