Welcome Wardens!
Only the world’s most ruthless Warden can contain the world’s most ruthless inmates. Design and develop your personalized penitentiary in Prison Architect.

Invest and Innovate
Tap federal money with grant applications & direct your funds to combat disease, gang activity, litigation, and more!
Management and Muscle
Ensure your prison is mostly ethical and safe with top-notch staff including armed guards, psychologists, doctors, lawyers and snitches.
Detention by Design
Each prisoner’s criminal history requires custom treatment programs, labor schedules, and reform workshops.
Lockdown Showdown
Attempt a high-stakes escape of your own supermax prison in Escape Mode, or try Online mode to test one of 12,000 player-created prisons. Expand your empire limitlessly in Sandbox mode.
