You can construct anything from a Swedish style holiday camp/reform centre to a hellish death trap. I just executed my first death row inmate last night. Turns out he was innocent, but because I'd followed all the regulations I still got my 10k. That's justice! I downloaded the trial of this one xbox one, haven't got round to playing it yet. Seemed like it would be right up my street as a prison version of theme hospital. is that the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not quite as wacky as the old bullfrog games and the learning curve is steeper, but it's ultimately more complex and rewarding. I play on PC, but from what I've heard I think they added a better tutorial for the console version. My top tip is to segregate snitches and ex law enforcement inmates. They won't last a day if they get chucked in with the general prison population. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The engine isn't particularly resource intensive. My laptop is currently not using the graphics card correctly whilst I wait for a new fan and PA still runs well in safe mode. It might be quite frustrating with a controller at first, but hopefully you'll get used to it. I've long wondered why consoles don't have mouse optimisation. You've been able to use standard usb keyboards with them for years, so I don't see why we're still stuck with controllers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today I build a network of foxholes around Hamlet and main base and lead a team of 6 to assault the factory at f15. We fought our way through them and found a weak spot in their defences. Got onto factory roof and looked over their whole camp. Called for mortars but nobody could reach me. So I started picking them off one by one until they dropped mortars on me. That's my life mate.

I know a lot of people get a bee in their bonnet about alpha versions being released, but as long as the devs keeps working on them I quite like coming back to the game every six months and having a good excuse to start a new game and try out all the updated features.
