Prison Tycoon is a Simulation game. Prison Tycoon allows you to build and run your very own correctional facility from the comfort of your own home, on your PC.

Crime doesn't pay but justice does! Private prisons are the new growth industry. Construct and run your own efficient rehabilitation facility. Control the layout of your prison buildings and the arrangement of the rooms and facilities within them. Place dormitories and cellblocks, mess halls and gymnasiums, but don't expect to be able to build death row right away.

Private prisons have become the new growth industry. You will construct and run an efficient rehabilitation facility with nothing but money on your mind. There's no escaping under your watchful eye as you oversee every detail of prison life. Start from the ground up placing the very walls and fences that will house and contain your prisoners. Choose from multiple isolated environments and get to work. Begin with a low security prison and build it up to a maximum security facility for the world's most dangerous criminals. Expertly staff your prison with wardens, guards, cooks, and rehabilitation experts. Carefully balance your budget, maintain prisoner morale, and minimize the potential for financial meltdown. Determine the overall security level of your lockdown, but beware! Too harsh a prison will create a dangerous environment and could spark prisoner riots. Too lenient an approach will result in rampant gang activity.

In Prison Tycoon, crime doesn't pay… but justice does!

Ever wondered what it will be like to build a prison from the ground up? Few people do. But Prison Tycoon, a game built by ValuSoft, shows players just how challenging and fun it is to build and run a prison, all while trying to get ahead financially. In Prison Tycoon, players first decide on the structure of their prison, beginning with the building. Choosing from a variety of materials and remote locations, players can customize their prison and build a fence to keep prisoners in. Then players can also choose their staff: wardens, guards, and cooks are a few of the people players can customize and then influence. Players begin with a low-security prison and build their way up to high-security by successfully maintaining stability within the prison. Overcoming financial problems and keeping prisoners from breaking out in riot are a few of the obstacles players must rise above in order to be successful. One way to achieve balance is to plan activities for prisoners and break up gang fights. One of the challenges of Prison Tycoon is finding the perfect balance for discipline. Too much or too little can lead to catastrophe. Prison Tycoon is a game for those who enjoy the feeling of power. In this world, the player has complete control of what goes on, at least until the people in the prison start interacting on their own; then, complete chaos can erupt. Nonetheless, running this small world will prove satisfactory to many players.
