Few things are as satisfying as watching something you built come to life.


7. Prison Architect

Prison Architect trailer

Introversion Software brings to us the very different and entertaining title, Prison Architect. That’s right—in this game we’re designing and running prisons to lock away all those pesky lawbreakers who simply refuse to just be good little boys and girls like nearly everyone else. And you’ll be forced to handle all the challenges that come with that.

Prison Architect is a very detailed simulator that will force you to really pay attention to your designs. You’ll have to if you don’t want all kinds of mad escape attempts plaguing your prison. You’re in charge of everything: designing the facility, hiring staff, keeping the inmates (reasonably) happy, maintaining order and even setting a schedule for your prisoners.

Since it’s no good having criminals who actually remain criminals forever, you’ll also need to build workshops and design reform programs to help show your prisoners the error of their ways, thus making the world a better place, one rehabilitated inmate at a time. It won’t be anywhere near that easy, though. For starters, prisoners who arrive from opposing gangs in the outside world won’t hesitate to get at each other’s throats on sight, and there are any number of random occurrences you’ll need to work your way through, often on a limited budget.

Brawls in the facility could become a common occurrence if you’re not careful.

You can build large, comprehensive facilities, such as this one.
