About this game

See how long you can survive in a sprawling facility, where hundreds of fellow prisoners are trying to get through each day in real-time. Develop relationships with an advanced dialogue system that allows you to start conversations before the drama comes to you. Should you choose violence, a combat system perfected by wrestling lets you express yourself with your fists! Hundreds of fully interactive props can be equipped in either hand as tools or weapons - including mind-blowing gunplay that allows you to shoot at ANY moment. Reinforced by a creative crafting system, you've only ever run out of ammo when you've run out of ideas.

Just when you think you've seen it all, a whole other police role challenges you to tackle crime from the other side of the fence - keeping existing prisoners in order while patrolling the streets for new ones! An extended outside world makes life worth living, with a wider range of vehicles and animals to explore it. All now presented with higher resolution 3D visuals, a smoother frame rate, and a wider variety of camera angles to enjoy cinematic moments.

Upon upgrading to the fully "unlocked" experience, an inbuilt editor empowers you to save your changes to each character to make the world your own. You can then blow off steam in a special "Fight Scene" mode - where you select WHO fights WHERE and with WHAT to see who survives! This action can also be enjoyed at a smoother 60fps frame rate on compatible devices, with no ads for paying customers.

All the chaos and entertaining simulation style of the usual MDickie game. It's fine. i'd give it a higher score but I was honestly annoyed by the yearly Subscription system to access the more customizable options. It's a fine game without it but I would legitimately rather pay $10-15 for permanent access to all the content than have to worry about paying 4 bucks every year. It just really bothers me and lowers my opinion a lot. Especially when the Steam version is just a normal 1-time purchase.

I'm no stranger to MDickie. In fact I still play Hard Time 1, Super City, and Wrestling Revolution. All 2D. And I love them immensely! But, anytime I play anything 3D, it just doesn't work for me. I enjoy HT3 for how much the map has expanded and all the different opportunities in this game to take advantage of. BUT, the camera angling needs more work. There's been too many times I'm defending myself or trying to get out of a hold and someone's head is stuck in the way and I die! Please fix ASAP

Add a bench press feature that upgrades strength, and can help you gain reputation. It could be like a little mini game or something. Or it could be a genuine stat. For example, 50% strength means you can bench 180 pounds if that character is 200 pounds, , and if the character has 83% strength at the same weight, then it should be 245 at 200, and yeah. It'd be cool as a #1 reputation earner and like a #2 strength gainer, should be one but you do you!
