You play a prison guard during a shift that escalates from routine work into a prison riot. The prologue tells a standalone story about the chaos inside the facility.
Carry out guard duties such as searching cells, checking for contraband, and keeping watch over inmates. As the riot spreads through the yard, canteen, and workshop, you must respond to fires, fights, and damage around the prison.
Choose how to confront the unrest: negotiate with inmates, use a baton, or take up firearms. The prologue also includes new events, dialogue, routines, and weapon mechanics, with story and sandbox modes described by players.
Several reviewers enjoy the prologue’s hectic prison chaos, finding its mix of guard duties, fights, and escalating riot events entertaining and its guard role engaging to play. Some also appreciate the prison atmosphere and variety of activities. Other reviews describe the experience as short or repetitive, and report frustration with lockpicking and occasional performance problems.
