So you start out as a total green newbie and as you cause trouble and your reputation grows within the prison, you get access to more and more advanced stuff. "All the stats that make some prisoners much tougher than others: they form your kind of RPG progression system in the game. Anything the prisoners can do in the game, you can do, so you can steal knives from the kitchen, you can make digging implements in the workshop, you can dig escape tunnels, you can recruit other prisonsers to join up and form a little posse. "In the background we've been fleshing it out gradually until it's a whole game mode in its own right now. But you couldn't do anything that was the end of it.

That's in addition to the existing sandbox building mode.Įscape mode flips the game on its head as you attempt to break out of the prisons that either you've created with the level editor, or anyone else has created - all 12,000 community-made prisons (and counting) can be played.Īnything the prisoners can do in the game now, you will be able to do.
Prison-building game Prison Architect will leave Steam Early Access and launch with a brand new Escape mode and a fleshed out story mode on 6th October.
