FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
 
Barcelona, Spain - December 13th, 2021

We believe in rehabilitation! “Prison Tycoon: Under New Management” is fully available now on PC (Steam & GOG). This building and managing game with criminally humorous vibes has spent months in Early Access improving and growing with the help and contribution of several players:
 
“This game is so addicting! The team over at Abylight has been super receptive to all the community feedback. I think this has the potential to be a modern classic.” - Cryogenic_Pizza

And it doesn't come alone, its first DLC “Roll Call” is also ready to play for an incredible amount of 0€/$ (yes, free). Players now are able to let their imagination run wild with full character customization, so streamers can also involve their community with this playful feature to boost the entertainment.
 
“Roll Call” is specially made for those who enjoy playing games in front of others, catering specifically to those who Twitch about their gameplay - increase the interaction, increase the fun!

Run your own prison - set your own rules
 
Welcome, new managers! We’re here because we believe in rehabilitation through the funniest therapies ever, so our inmates could return to normal life and never repeat their mistakes, right?
 
In Prison Tycoon: Under New Management we believe that everything is possible, so no more punishing prisoners, use personalized therapies: zero gravity room, VR treatment or dancing therapy, each person is a completely different world!
 
“The game is hilarious, the objects you can place in the rooms are super funny, and the therapy rooms are fun and different.” - BIG CHUNGUS
 
Keep your prison nice and clean, efficient and profitable to make everyone happy, but beware of nature as well! The government will be demanding and the prisoners hard to crack, so the environmental events will also make it extra difficult for you too.
 
Features:
 
5 environments to build the prison in: each with perks and challenges. Choose between Desert, Tundra, Tropical, Taiga and Swamp.
 
Prisoners with their own minds: the sophisticated AI ensures their behavior is never predictable!
 
Your own blueprints: design every room, path, checkpoint, and cell block.
 
Hire the best, fire the rest: evaluate and hire staff for 12 roles to serve in running and maintaining your prison.
 
Secure and Protect: maintain a secure facility using guards, cameras, watchtowers, and checkpoints.
 
Rehabilitate and Release: evaluate prisoners, then provide the therapies that they need to be released, from the zero gravity room to VR therapy.
