Hard Time. Try Before You Buy! You are advised to download one of the various demos before placing an order! If they don't work for you, neither will the full game Hard Time In a bleak future where there are more criminals than citizens, one prison hopes to redress the balance with short doses of HARD time!

Take your punishment like a man and try to endure the grueling regime of Southtown Correctional Facility. Create your own inmate from scratch and rub shoulders with up to fellow convicts throughout the sprawling prison complex. With each passing day, every action taken and every word spoken will sculpt your own unique identity - as you attempt to juggle the physical and mental demands of prison life. You'll soon find that " reputation " is the only currency that matters in this world!

Having one keeps you alive, but avoiding one keeps you sane. Once you're in close proximity of another character, there are literally hundreds of things that they might confront you about - ranging from bold statements to multiple-choice questions. Each has its own unique effect on your progress and mental status - such as making you happy when praised or unhappy when criticized. Rather more importantly, your reputation is also at stake when making decisions. Complying to an unreasonable request may save your skin and make you an ally, but it's also seen as a sign of weakness and damages your status.

Whereas standing your ground and making tough decisions will earn you some respect. In fact, your reputation determines which subjects are likely to come up in the first place. As in real life, other people tend to leave you alone and even suck up to you if you're seen to be powerful - whereas docile characters are prime targets for bullies Men On A Mission Your fellow inmates aren't the only ones that can offer food for thought.

For the first time in my games, storylines can also be triggered by inanimate objects - such as tanoys that make announcements and phones that wait to be answered in the main hall. They're the game's goodie bag - giving you the chance to receive progress-boosting offers in amongst the inevitable wrong numbers!

The most intriguing of them are little "missions" - which are not only a fun distraction, but can also earn you extra money and valuable reputation points. There are dozens of them to come across - ranging from delivering messages to whacking a specific character. And even more assignments can come from your fellow inmates - not least from gangs who consider it your responsibility to do their bidding. Even the wardens get in on the act by setting you certain self-improvement goals to reach - but doing what they say is more likely to damage you rep than improve it!

They do have the power to shave precious days off your sentence though Dead Or Alive You'll soon find that surviving in prison is a delicate balancing act. What makes you popular with the cons makes you unpopular with the wardens - and vice versa! When you're seen to step out of line or disobey an order, the wardens will emerge like a gang of their own and give you a beating.

And if you don't take the hint or did something particularly bad , that will be the least of your concerns. There are over a dozen separate charges that the wardens can bring against you, and upon doing so alarms will follow your every move and every cop on the beat will be out to get you! Once one of them gets you in a headlock, they won't let you go until you've been dragged before a judge to answer for what you've done Court In The Act Court cases are nothing new to my games, but they've never been more relevant than in this prison concept!

For once, being found guilty actually results in jail time albeit time added to the sentence that you're already serving. It's not a forgone conclusion though. Each of the characters concerned gets to make their case before the judge rules either way - and if he takes your side, it may be the warden that gets reprimanded for wasting the court's time!

However, there's more at stake than mere jail time and a few fines. As with everything else, the court verdict has contrasting effects on your reputation. Your fellow convicts only respect a guilty man, and will look down on innocent verdicts or even be suspicious of them.

Meanwhile, the prosecuting officer may hold it against you if his case isn't successful Hard Day's Night If you want to keep your nose clean, you can always put money in your pocket by working legitimately. In addition to missions and underhand deals, there are all manner of laborious jobs to dedicate your time to.

At the bottom of the barrel is sweeping the floors, which anybody with a broom can do! It's tiring and unfulfilling work though, and won't do your status any good. If you gain qualifications, there are cushier and better paid opportunities in store - ranging from preparing food in the kitchen to concocting chemicals in the medical bay.

It's not technically accurate that a prisoner would acquire or even need money so easily, but it's vital that you have cash at your disposal for the sake of the game. After all, wardens can't be bribed with cigarettes! Weight Watchers It's not just your bank account that needs boosting either!

You can make similar improvements to your body by committing your time to exercise. In addition to a health meter, each character's physical status is further represented by "Strength" and "Agility" ratings as in the wrestling games.

Strength governs how much damage a character can inflict and their fighting prowess in general, so it's something to build up in yourself and be wary of in others. Although it occasionally improves when fighting, it can be deliberately honed by lifting weights in the yard. You simply take a seat at a bench press or take a smaller dumbbell in hand, and the character automatically pumps away - earning strength points at the expense of energy so you can't do it all day! White Men Can't Jump There are also exercises for improving your agility - and they tend to be a little more fun!

The yard has a basketball hoop mounted on the wall, and when near it your attempts to throw an item are translated into a jump-shot. You can do it with any given item, but a ball is provided for your convenience. It's very much an afterthought and doesn't offer anywhere near the polish of a dedicated sports game, but it's a nice little distraction.

That's not all it is though. Every basket scored regardless of what you do it with earns you agility points and significantly boosts your happiness along the way. As you'd expect, "Agility" governs how fast your character moves which comes in handy when evading enemies!

If you don't fancy developing it with silly games though, you can always take a jog around the yard and hope for some spontaneous improvements Mind Control In addition to keeping your body in check, you can also expand your mind by reading books in the study.

As mentioned with the jobs, "Intelligence" governs which opportunities you have access to. It's not all about work though. There are several computers dotted around the prison, which intelligent inmates can use to access data about every character in the game! Not only is this a fun little gimmick, but it also comes in handy for planning missions and swotting up on your enemies. Being smart is one less thing that people can pick on you for too!

In fact, a superior mind has been known to humble the other inmates as surely as a superior body
