So fun to get about 100 prisoners to pay off my debt and then starve them all to death. (My prisoner execution failed)
good
excellent game
Bangerrrr lock em up
Spoko
Świetna gra, można do nie wiele razy wracać . Świetna jest możliwość zarządzania do słownie wszystkim, od kar za kradzież po miejsca lądowania lotniczych oddziałów prewencyjnych.
Love the older format of this game but - FULL of bugs that were never addressed despite NUMEROUS dlcs. This is a reflection on the game developers standards, including a consumer spending over 500 hours on bug fixes, for free, on behalf of enthusiasts. This speaks volumes about the game developers, and I will not be a customer of Prison Architect 2. Shame.
Can't wait for Prison Architect 2!
$30 for a ten-year-old game that's not getting ANY updates any more with most of the good new content from said updates being locked behind 13 paid DLCs is biblical levels of greed. I don't care if it's a sandbox game and there's limitless possibilities or whatever, don't buy this at full price. Even if it is a pretty good game.
This is a fun and avesome game, i love build and architect game and this brings a new twist to it, you have to make sure your rooms are in good conditions so your prisonernes doesnt get mad and start a riot, it may be old but still gold
