About Hard Time
The realism in Hard Time begins with the player taking on the role of a prison inmate and continues with the depiction of a prison environment that incorporates high-occupancy guards and the most dangerous criminal characters. All the elements of the simulation create an environment where players must take care of their character’s well-being, including finding means to meet their character’s everyday needs to avoid victimization by other inmates. The real time simulation brings a high level of drama by constantly challenging the player to make immediate decisions that affect their character’s survival.
What distinguishes Hard Time from other sandbox prison simulation games is the abundance and authenticity of the interactive elements comprising the game environment. It is not uncommon for players to pick up or take objects they find in their surroundings. Because the game environment includes almost everything that a player may find in the real world, and because the players can pick anything they find in the game world, the game encourages and promotes latitude in planning, strategizing, and conducting everyday prison activities. This helps to deal with the game’s high level of drama by providing players an outlet through which they can relieve built-up stress, albeit virtually.
The game offers a unique plan and escape system for players that wish to flee the brutal prisons. Escape is a long and complicated process that requires a lot of planning and involves looking over different ways and routes to escape the secure prison. Players can decide to carry out the escape process alone or in conjunction with other inmates. Carrying out the process with others is risky as one has to put up with the fact that they can be betrayed. Failing to successfully escape or being caught attempting to escape is considered a long and tough process that requires players to collect and gather items over a long period and coming up with a detailed plan on how to go about it considering the placement of prison guards and the layout of the prison. The process of planning and escaping makes the game interesting and engaging.
Becoming the prison boss is yet another interesting feature of the game. Players are allowed to chose a path of violence or wisdom. Once the top spot is in their grip, they have to deal with several new challenges and dangers that comes with ruling the prison including making sure that their power base is in order and engaging in activities that goes against the rules of the prison like colluding with the police to be in charge of the prison. Planning and executing a prison riot to cover up an escape is permitted. No two games are the same thanks to the freedom given to players to make decision regarding how they carry out their activities once they are in charge.
The game allows players to execute a variety of actions and strategies, and the systems are designed to be as flexible as possible in response to the player’s input. Players have the option to concentrate on a stealth or combat-oriented playthrough, and the game gives players several control configuration options to help optimize the game for their preferred playstyle. More pad-centric control configurations provide additional realism and make the game feel more immersive. The game encourages players to take control of the prison and impose their will via physical means. Thanks to the game’s flexible control configurations, players are free to interact with NPCs as they see fit. Players have the freedom to reconfigure the game’s GUI to suit their preferences, and in the process, better engage with the game’s systems and theory-crafting opportunities.
