About Prison Life
Prison Life is a multiplayer game for 4–12 players. Each player receives a random role and works with players in the same role to win. Prisoners have four days to escape; guards must stop them.
Maps and escape routes
The game has three maps: Bricksfield, Lost Island and Space. Prisoners can escape in many ways, including through the underground, the entrance door, by bomb, helicopter, jetski, raft, ship, spaceship or escape pods. Areas include rooms, the yard, vents, underground spaces, the roof, ship docks and an abandoned city.
Prisoners and guards
Prisoners search restricted and unrestricted areas for loot, gather rare resources by digging underground, and craft items such as fence cutters and bombs to help them escape. They must avoid being seen carrying illegal items or committing illegal acts.
Guards search players for illegal items, watch for rule-breaking such as entering restricted areas or carrying metal through metal detectors, and arrest wanted prisoners to send them to solitary. They also complete tasks and repair broken walls and fences outside the prison. Guard equipment includes placeable traps, remote cameras, radios and sound detectors.
Game features
The game also includes a crafting system, items for prisoners, voice chat and customizable game settings.
