Game review

Good game just don’t like that you can’t pick the character
A_V24A_V24

Fun but has its issues

My biggest complaint is the camera it’s very annoying also the constant dialogue that messes you up and the prisoners that team up with the cops and attack you when wanted it makes no sense. I also hate the mental state mechanic and having to use the bathroom I’ve always hated both. Despite the issues however mdickie is a legend and to this day I still play, these games were a big part of my childhood.

Entertaining

I’ve been playing this game for years, I’m being serious, it’s so fun and time consuming and I play when I don’t have anything to do.
