Step into the gritty world of Prison Gang Wars, a newly released game on iOS and Android that plunges you into the life of an inmate in a high-security prison. With no hope of parole, you're thrust into a survival scenario clad only in the iconic orange scrubs, relying solely on your wits to navigate this harsh environment.
Drawing inspiration from real-world prison dynamics, your journey begins the moment you're sentenced. Quickly, you're recruited by a gang and tasked with smuggling and distributing contraband, essential for maintaining your status within the prison hierarchy. However, dealing with fellow inmates isn't easy; some may refuse to pay, sparking conflicts that test your negotiation skills and resilience.
Incarceration makes money scarce. You'll need to barter with rations like noodles and whatever meager funds you can transfer from your bank to a prison credit account. The game emphasizes the struggle for resources, making every transaction vital to your survival.
Strife. Strategy. Survival!
Engage in fierce battles with rival gangs to dominate the prison map. Strengthen your gang's loyalty by targeting and defeating other groups, gaining trust, and making enemies along the way. As you rise through the ranks, you'll discover who controls the various territories within the prison. Strategic moves are crucial to disrupt your rivals' operations and impose taxes on their activities.
Territory, valuables, and currency fuel the friction between gangs, often escalating into brawls, grudges, or full-blown wars. Surviving a riot might lead to searches by officers for contraband and weapons, so ensuring your stash is well-hidden is key to staying out of trouble.
The game presents you with tough choices at the most inconvenient times. Imagine a gang member needing your help in a fight while you're carrying contraband. Do you risk losing your stash to assist, or walk away and suffer a hit to your reputation?
Managing your gang requires careful planning and interaction, while you also need to take care of yourself through commissary meals, family visits, and even contraband tattoos.
