Ever wondered what it takes to manage a prison? Prison Simulator drops players into the complex role of a correctional facility governor, balancing inmate relations, prison growth and staff needs for a unique management experience.

This PC/mobile game captures the high-pressure decision-making faced when directing real maximum and medium security lockups. Can you enforce order fairly while also keeping prisoners content and reforming them through programs? And do it all profitably? Let the trials of running a penal business begin!

START SMALL WITH A MODEST LOCKUP AND GROW YOUR CORRECTIONS EMPIRE

At its core, Prison Simulator kicks off with a basic facility under your control that must be developed over time. Slowly construct new cell blocks, facilities, offices and programs to house more inmates and expand your operations. Manage resources and staff smartly to support this growth. Like any good tycoon game, building your empire is key!

As governor, keeping tensions from boiling over into riots falls directly on your shoulders. Allocate guards wisely, respond to incidents promptly and separate violent inmates to keep the peace. Don’t let the inmates run the asylum!

BALANCE PUNISHMENT AND REFORM TO CHANGE PRISONER BEHAVIOR

While discipline is needed for unruly actions, providing reform programs like education, jobs skills and counseling offers prisoners a chance at rehabilitation. Finding the right carrot/stick balance is crucial.

It’s not just inmates you need to appease! Correctional officers will make demands regarding schedules, safety and compensation that must be addressed. And your superiors in the Administration expect regular budget and expansion reports.

DEAL WITH THE DARK INFLUENCES OF RIVAL GANGS AND THE MAFIA

Contraband drugs, weapons and more sneak in thanks to rival gangs looking to control your facility. Be ready to combat their violent outbursts. And mafia cronies will try greasing your palms for favors – how much corruption will you allow?

Dive into the nitty-gritty of cell assignments, facility schedules, guard patrols and program management yourself. Or direct your Assistant Warden and Chief of Security to make these decisions for you. Finding a command balance is key.

HIGHLY CUSTOMIZABLE DIFFICULTY AND GAMEPLAY OPTIONS

Fine tune the challenge level and feature sets to your preferences. Enable hunger systems, gang wars, contraband smuggling, and more for added complexity, or streamline management. Embrace the exciting challenge of directing a thriving correctional business while keeping societal protection paramount. Maintain order and reform prisoners in Prison Simulator!
