What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
🔸 The story part of Prison Simulator is perhaps kinda linear, I can say that at some points it was going high and higher with the story and then suddenly it all dropped down, felt like the Developers just left the story part of the game and wanted to work on making fun activities which kinda worked for them.
🔸 The game is optimized and can be run on low spec computers as well, the graphics look cool but nothing spectacular, and attention to detail is included in some parts of the prison for example as time goes on some prisoners write or put things on their cell.
I could definitely see this have a multiplayer option down the line where friends or even streamers and their communities can great a lobby and role-play.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 5 more themes were each raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and are not shown.
