In the series "We do the Simulator for anything", here is Prison Simulator, a game that puts you in the shoes of a prison officer. The basic idea is not stupid: to manage prisoners and gangs ... but the problem is that the game goes into a spin after an hour, it ends in brawl and killings with bullets in the head !
Welcome ... to prison
Prison Simulator is therefore above all a management of prisoners in the first person view. You begin your service with a report to your superior, before taking a rather special walkabout with prisoners. When starting a game, you will need to "Create" your first 16 prisoners (last name, first name, physique…) and assign them a gang. Because yes, prisoners have a social life and gang wars are a reality in the prison environment. But in the prologue that was provided to us, this management of the social component stops there, and when a fight breaks out, it's a bit of everyone who "Fucks on the face". Forgive the expression, but it really is the idea. On your side, you are equipped with bladed weapons, sticks, taser to try to bring order. Everything is going rather well, you spend your first hours discussing, searching prisoners to take their contraband from them, etc ... Until the first riot, or rather killing.
And that's when the game loses all credibility and the term "Simulator" crumbles. The prologue ends in a bloodbath. A prisoner uprising requires you to equip yourself with a pistol, its 3 magazines, and to shoot bullets in the head who do not want it. After having annihilated the whole prison, calm returns… of the big nonsense with scenes in Zombiland where everyone rushes at you while you are armed!
In short, the game is released on May 20, is VR compatible, and we will relaunch it one last time ... to see ... but without much waiting ...
