Amazingly deep, fun, replayable, and just smart!

For starters if you are reading this review thinking about buying a cheap, weird but fun looking game and wonder if the reviews are fake - I assure you they are not! I'm 100% real, rarely give five star reviews, and this game is just as amazing as everyone says. You can play it multiple times as 100 different characters with specific and individual goals and skills, and the replay value is made stronger by the fact that every little tentacle of each possible storyline is written with depth and intelligence. For example, I played once as a prisoner and worked hard to get parole. I was recommended for parole but at the last moment the warden noticed I had the "banker" skill and decided to keep me in prison for his tax scheme. So my new goal (complete with a heartbroken, 0 happiness prisoner) was to escape and take the warden hostage. Which after a long while, I did. And that's just one possible little storyline. Any prison life/break story or fantasy you've heard of or had is in this game somewhere. Finding them is half the fun. It's soooooo good, guys. Buy it. Seriously.

The best rpg game on IOS

I have played this game for hours on boats, cars, planes, etc. and it is insane. I’m very sad that the developer unexpectedly stopped updating the game and operating the game website and I hope that he is doing well. For 4 dollars this is the absolute best rpg you can get. You can work different jobs, join gangs and climb up the ranks by doing jobs such as bribing boxing matches which you can then gamble on. Gang rank ups earn you new perks such as protection by other members and money from other inmates eventually. If you’re gonna get an rpg game, get this.

Cured my stage 69 osteoporosis.

I was a young child at 7 years old when I was diagnosed with stage 69 osteoporosis. I couldn’t do anything. I had a nickname called “the pineapple” and my parents tied me to a pole and ate my dog. Then, I found this app and it gave me new life and my new nickname is “the vape queen”. My parents now don’t eat my dog anymore, instead they smuggle Sour Patch Kids across the border. My life took a turn for the better and now I’m on top of the world.

Best game ever made for phone

I have known this game for years now and i remember when the developer used to bring out updates. He’s been missing for years now and there is no way to reach him. Overall with what he made so far this game is complete I would’ve loved to see more content. I hope the developer is ok and is not deceased.

A lasting classic

This is the pinnacle of 2D rpg at the very least on a prison stand point, very few games are as well made as this one, by far ahead of it’s time, I would be THRILLED to see more content or possibly a sequel app? I’m sure many others would agree, anyway, great game, if you’re debating and reading this, give it a try.

Potential.

I have clocked over 15 hours into this game easily. I even rebought the game when I switched from Samsung to iPhone. It was truly such a great game and time killer. While the developer hasn’t really made anything or been very active since it’s last update (I hope they are doing well), the game is still worth your time.

Fun game but…

I wish the devs would come back to this one. This game is pretty fun even after multiple play throughs, but I wish there was a lot more content now that I’ve done everything. I’m a big fan of how the game works and everything you can do. I just thrive for more🤌

Great but needs updates

This game is great just wish there would be an update. Like maybe add some recruiting to gangs and few people being released and brought into the prison systems so a fresh slate of people coming. Or even police roles. I’m dying for a new update it’s been updated last 4 years ago which said updates was held back because of translations :(.
