One thing that has often bothered me are the pop-up menus for object interaction. If I"m zoomed out, and I click on a tree for clearing, the object pop up goes all the way to the right instead of appearing right next to the object. It creates needless mouse movement, and feels non-intuitive. Ca...

Well this post certainly turned fast. Without "taking any sides", let's at least agree that if this game suddenly grew a conscience, so to speak, it would kill it. The player can't feel like the designer has given them some moral agenda to act out. That would just be pandering, and any gam...

To be honest it's not even worth my time to type it all out. The author needs an editor or the very least a conscience. Well if it's not worth the time to type it out, then it's not worth anyone's time to take you seriously. I smell bias here. Are you trying to say that there's nothing wrong with t...

This was a great article. He is fully aware that this game isn't fully released, but with each Alpha getting us a step closer to a complete game, it's important that people point these things out. Isn't that the point of the Alpha? On the one hand, PA is quite tongue-in-cheek; on the other hand, thi...

So I purchased the game a few months ago at the Alpha 8 release, I believe, and it's amazing how so many of the new features make this game a compulsively, full-fletched game...almost. Obviously, this game has a ways to go, but it's great to see the evolution. I played for 40 hours in the first week...

So I started a prison last night, and forgot to start the time lapse, which I always forget about. Not sure if others are forgetting about this feature, but I thought it might be nice to have an option notice pop up at the very least when you start a new prison. Maybe there could be a toggle that th...

Has the new Name Editing been implemented? I bought my name in game upgrade a few months ago, but when I go back to the Name Editing screen here : http://www.introversion.co.uk/prisonarchitect/register/ :
I just get my bio in red lettering. No body customization

For starters, all ‘Name in the Game’ customers can now customize the size, face type and colour of their prisoners by using our new Name in the game system which you can find here. Any help for those of us who previously purchased 'Name in the Game' and would like to customize prisoner? **Update** ...

Is it safe to even put your full birthday and full name into the game?

So I was thinking of starting a new prison, and I wanted to make it kind of a devious maximum security with a corrupt warden. In my head, I kept imagining some corrupt warden and I wanted to give him a name. Although it's an interesting statement to have the prisoners all named and to have the admin...

I've heard of certain prisons that give the inmates access to gaming consoles. This could be a high-priced, special, even unlocked item, that could be used placed in the rec room. Would be very meta...

He's not your penis, asshole.

I've been intrigued by prison life ever since I read an interview with Philip Zimbardo about the prison experiments. http://www.smbc-comics.com/comics/20130630.png :P xander Yeah, in this interview I read with him, he actually points out a lot of the flaws in the experiment, that he was an active p...
