Crack that Whip! Take reigns of a privately run prison. You are responsible for the care, custody, and control of individuals who have been arrested. Begin with a low security prison and build it up to a SuperMax. From construction to daily operations, you must protect society while turning a profit. It's time for lockdown.

Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Aug 15 → 0/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

It is incredibly buggy and the guards get stuck easily somewhere and only way to fix this is to literally destroy the building and rebuild. You don't get funds back when you destroy though so you are sh*t out of luck on alot things. There needs to be an overview area like in Prison Tycoon 4 where you can assign beds and work places. Having to click on every single one is a tedious task. Now I do like that you can assign them cleaning and maintenance duty, this can save you on funds going out of the prison but that is the only good feature. I do not recommend this game.

Guards are useless against escaping prisoners.
Crash on startup
Hight end Grafik vom Feinsten! Gamplay ist überdurchschnittlich gut! Tutorial ist traumhaft! Interface... GUI Da kann sich Anno, Civ, und AoE eine Schiebe abschneiden! KI next gen! Artwork hat mich von den Socken gehauen! Alles in allem sind 10€ viel zu wenig! Für dieses AAAA Game kann man locker so um die 130€ verlangen!
This game franchise is just to much work and too little payoff.
Don't let the comments fool you... This game rocks. 2023 and its still going strong. Option 1 in comments work to run on a windows 10. Here to assist if anyone needs help.
i love the old school graphics the way the software creators thought of every detail of a prison
Game sucks
Worst game ever. Responsible for releasing this piece of theft is a crazy person.. Believe me.
