## What is Pocket Yard?

A small yard. A chance for new beginnings. In Pocket Yard, you build a welcoming prison one step at a time. Tap to collect build points, hire a construction crew, and decide which room to upgrade next.

SHAPE DAILY LIFE
Upgrade cells, the kitchen, showers, courtyard, workshop, and library through 20 levels each. Care for your residents, choose room specializations, and watch new furnishings transform your facility.

THREE LOCATIONS TO DEVELOP
Unlock Sunny Yard, Ironworks, and Coastwatch. Play through 27 chapters, complete repeatable deliveries, and collect bronze, silver, and gold awards. Stories and finished deliveries wait for you, with no deadlines or resets.

PEOPLE AND POSSIBILITIES
Discover your residents’ talents, support their development in the kitchen, workshop, or library, and help them work toward release. Assign specialists, improve access control, guard services, and fire safety, and add new building wings. A greenhouse, training center, and harbor office bring location-specific projects.

PLAY AT YOUR OWN PACE
The core game works offline. Earn up to four hours of offline progress at your last visited location. Progress is saved locally; syncing between devices is not included. Optional store features and test videos require an internet connection.

OPTIONAL YARD PRO
Choose a monthly or yearly Yard Pro subscription for up to twelve hours of offline earnings instead of four, double operating income, the yard bonus without a video, and brass details while subscribed. Build point production, rewards, purchased resources, and the yard bonus are not doubled. Six optional one-time purchases provide coins or build points; they do not bypass chapter requirements.

Payment will be charged to your iTunes account upon confirmation of the purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. The renewal will be charged to your account within 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings in the App Store.
