About the Game


LOCAL-MULTIPLAYER ONLY. NO SINGLE PLAYER OR ONLINE. KEYBOARD OR CONTROLLERS REQUIRED.

The Prison is a single-screen local-multiplayer stealth game where players are trying to accomplish goals without drawing attention to them.

Currently the game consists of 5 different modes each having an unique gameplay. Terminal hack, where convicts fight to death to hack terminals and open their escape tunnel. Hunt mode, where cops are trying to identify and eliminate convicts before they find the way out. Prison break, where convicts chase to the escape tunnels under sniper fire. And more!

Perfect match if you are looking for a party game with a bunch of friends chilling out on a couch and yelling at each other :D
