About This Game

Hoosegow: Prison Survival is a choice-based survival game with roguelike elements, where your goal is to survive in a brutal prison environment. Every decision has consequences, every playthrough is unique, and one mistake can cost you your life.

At the start, you receive a randomly generated inmate with a unique set of stats, a crime, and a sentence. You must balance survival, maintaining your reputation, and achieving the objectives of your chosen game mode.

GAME SCENARIOS

• Classic. Survive until the end of your sentence, at any cost.

GAME FEATURES

• Dark humor — laugh so you don’t cry.

CREATE YOUR OWN INMATE
