Old But Good
For a simple builder game, it has a decent vibe and is very engaging. Seriously recommend for anyone that enjoys the builder genre.

Prison Architect
Description
Build and manage a Maximum Security Prison. As the sun casts it’s early morning rays on a beautiful patch of countryside the clock starts ticking. You’ve got to crack on and build a holding cell to detain the job-lot of maximum security prisoners that are trundling to your future prison on their yellow bus. As your workmen lay the last brick you don’t have a moment to let them rest as they need to get started on the first proper cell block so you can make room for the next prisoner intake. Once they’ve all got a place to lay their weary heads the fun can really start. You’ll need a canteen, infirmary and a guard room, oh, and don’t forget to plumb in a toilet, or things will get messy, but what about a workout area? Or solitary confinement cells? Or an execution chamber?
Inspired by Dungeon Keeper, Dwarf Fortress and Theme Hospital and with over 1 million players having spent time inside, Prison Architect is the world’s best lock-em-up.

Great moments emerge naturally from well-made simulations, and Prison Architect has no shortage

Prison Architect is one of the most in-depth, satisfying builder games in ages, if you can get past the initiation.

If you liked Rimworld, you may like this.
This game has very similar engine, graphics and interface like Rimworld. However, its not so addicting like Rimworld. I've spent two days on it, never were hooked enough to finish campaign and start creating brand new prisons. Too much work. Many unintuitive elements like in Rimworld. Searching for solutions in search engine is necessary.

Great fun game
Simple graphics, but great game play. Often games are lost with the way that they look, but this has a nice look to it, but its all about the game play. You will lose hours of your life playing this game

Too many bugs
Got this game free from GOG and currently trying to play through the campaign but there are so many bugs with prisoners not doing what they are supposed to. Prisoners get stuck in walls, get permanently handcuffed and never get sent to prison cells/solitary, and prisoners forget to eat and starve to death are some of the said bugs I've encountered. Takes the fun away from an interesting game idea.
