Muito bom, adorei a compatibilidade com mods
great game for colony sim type game lovers.
i build prison, prisoners die, i make many mula
süper aw bagımlılık yapıyo
Really fun to play your own prisons after you make them, would recommend.
Brilliant game, love trying to have a peaceful prison with gangs and difficulty turned up. Very satisfying once you have a running prison fairly peaceful. The workshop also adds a lot of variety with full conversion mods which change the general look and can add new systems in. Very fun and fairly simple to play, but can be hard to get a smoothly running prison which is all part of the fun. Yes I did attach PC specs, fight me.
Games like this are the best. not even 500mb, but there is an unless amount of thing to do and manage. truly oe of the best world building games I've personally played.

good game,
After buying PA from Introversion Software, Paradox introduced several bugs into the game which they did not fix before ending support. Most egregious, they changed core features, unchanged since early alpha, in the final update before abandonment. Only buy this if you intend to rollback to the 2018 version.
