Good game. Almost great. Have been playing for about a year and keeps getting better. Really enjoying how they have been updating it! I like how they went back and made it easier to get your character's traits to upgrade. RNG can feel biased but it's RNG. Hard game but it's a survival game so, what do you expect? Wish a few more choices didn't have deadly consequences; again, it'd a survival game so it's supposed to be tough.

The game has a lot of potential and is really fun the problem is that you start the entire game with money and karma which do not get replenished when you die and start over so you are forced to buy more. The problem is in order to get more money or karma you either pay real money or watch an ad. Watching the ad would be fine but unfortunately you only gain a small amount and you can only watch an ad once every 40 minutes so it forces you to pay real money. I will be Uninstalling

In the new update, the cellmate asks for his bottle of hooch back, and I choose to give back it to him. As a result, he gets mad at me and we are both sent to isolation??? This consequence does not make any sense! Everything at least made sense before, as much as it would in a movie at least. You are making your game worse! If that makes sense in Russian, something was lost in translation. You could use a better translation on other older things too.

Absolutely love this game , it's so addicting but I do got some issues that bother me that keeps this game from being almost perfect, wish you could customize your own character & pick your own stats , another thing is that I wish every time I go to use certain objects like a shank I can continue to use it , like if I only go to use it too scare or threaten someone I can still have it unless I actually used it on someone & like meds I can use it at least a couple times at least. Please fix this.

Where to say.. first I can't even play the game I'm stuck on the loading screen. and keep getting "failed to connect to cloud" even though my Google play account automatically connected to the game. and when I try to click "try again" it gets stuck at 95% and won't load any further. Or when I press "download from disk" the bar goes full but I'm stuck at loading screen and nothing else happens. please fix this bug I can't even write a proper review without even able to play the game first

this game is honestly extremely annoying. you're constantly dying unless you have cards to "fix" everything or happened to get good stats in the beginning (which never happens). the coins and cards are fairly hard to get and the rate you spend them isnt worth the trouble it is to get them. honestly the only redeeming quality is that i suppose I could call it fun to figure out the different situations and what the responses do but half the time you have to pay to do the responses anyways.

Trying to survive the "Hoosegow". Rife which spelling errors, it is a procedurally random interactive novel. First you get a character with 3 stats Strength, Vitality, and Agility (something like that), and the result of some of the choices you make are influenced by these stats, but most choices are little more than a 50/50 coin flip to determine whether you live or die before another month passes. Good for a brief chuckle before it gets repetitive. Microtransactions for better odds.

I really enjoy this game. The unpredictability, strategy, and stylization behind it is so we'll done. I also like how the game objective balances out with the comedy. It gives a unique feel to the game as well as it makes it fun. I typically get over competitive but in this game, it's fun exploring the different outcomes...even when the character randomly dies by pneumonia or a panic attack 🤣. I just love the humor. I highly recommend this game.

There are a lot of grammactical errors in this game. It's also extremely hard to actually finish your prison sentence. You die at almost every option the game gives you. There's options to increase your rate of survival, but it doesn't even let me load ads to get points to play. There's so much potential for this game to make it more interesting as well.

Don't know where my last review went that fast, so I'm writing a new one: Game gets pretty repetitive very quickly, it's also too easy to die due to things that are beyond your control. Lastly, why isn't there a choice to work on skills for the sake of improving them? Every single time you get a "random" roll in the beginning that gives you horrible stats. If you're ALWAYS going to make us weak/give us low vitality, why not give us the choice of lifting weights so we can improve our odds??

Where to begin... 1. Abundant spelling errors. 2. Randomly switches languages. 3. Coming across the same scenario with two different "lives", and dying to the only two choices in that same scenario is game breaking. 4. Too many dumb ways to die, at least include more interactions leading up to the death, instead of one or two choices that both end in death based upon "luck". 5. Not that much to actually do in the game, too repetitive. I'd go more into detail but I've run out of characters......

I think it's pretty fun. The only issue is you're supposed to be able to watch ads for rewards. But the ad never loads, even when I'm playing on wi fi or 5g. I would also like if there were more game modes and maybe the option to make your own prisoner instead of playing as a randomly generated one. This game is really hard but still fun. Also if you didn't know, picking certain choices gives you coins, so it's not really pay to win. (Working, gambling, etc.) It can be hard to win though lol

This game has a lot of potential. The graphics are artwork are really great. The options and variety of options are a really nice. HOWEVER, there are a lot of typos and errors in some of the phrases like one sentence has a random "m" at the end and another spells look "lok". And you literal die from absolutely a anything and most of the time it is completely out of your control. It's entertaining but there are still a lot of kinks that need to be ironed out.

If you've ever played that game "Choice" or whatever, it's kind of like that, but less ads. Very simple, I believe it could use a few more features like maybe choices to interact with things in between serving sentences, however it's a fun, simple, and yet somewhat challenging game. **SLIGHT SPOILER** Also makes you regret your decision after dropping soap. No matter what the decision is....😭🤣

Honestly, it's one of the best mobile games I've ever played. It's good quality, the images are really clear and the art style is nice. You can watch ads for coins and luck, but there's still a time limit so it doesn't get overpowered. I'm not gonna mark down a star for this, but I noticed it doesn't always save the game when I log out of the app, which sometimes is annoying, but I mean whatever. This is a crazy cool game with funny scenarios. I just got my first godfather. Download the app lol

Somewhat entertaining but repetitive. It is a good strategy game with multiple factors to deal with (status, sentence time, bartering). Many situations come up requiring a booster. The game does give you those for free, in small quantities, if you remember to check in every day. If you run out, your characters are going to die a lot, or have other unpleasant things happen to them. Of course, there's always the option to spend real money, but at least this game doesn't push that too hard.

I enjoy the art and the reputation aspect, but there are some issues. There are spelling errors galore, and having to hit "serve sentence" constantly is also pretty annoying. In addition, a lot of the choices are luck based- you have no idea what will work. A small tutoria to give the rundown of what the overall life is like in the prison would help immensely.
