Comments on Prison Architect: Mobile for Android

★★★★★ Used to play it on my old tablet (It crashed, lagged, hitboxes were not lined up) but on my new tablet IT WORKS. Every hitbox is lined up I can see the prison, and it's only crashed once (when I tried to buy more land, please fix, and I'll give 5 stars) sadly there is one issue that has persisted, the noises last even after I close the game killing my tablet and its speakers

★★★★★ Can you make it, so you can save your game without the gampass because I have so much progress in the game plss make saving free plss

★★☆☆☆ As expected its Mass Pay To Play you only have One prisoner Mission and highly limited Build mode basically it's a Pay to play game and a total letdown to anyone who doesn't play on steam and that's not mentioning the bugs that include an off center mouse which kills all playable content and makes it impossible My raiting just went from 5* to this just by playing for 5 seconds its understandable the game needs to make money somehow, but this is just pure greed you need to pay for littery everything.

★★☆☆☆ Unplayable. It's a very weird concept when you download the game to trial it just to find out that you cannot play the game because the ui is not working on your device. By not working I mean that you need to press to the side of the buttons ot actually tap on them. People have reported the same issue back in 2020 and in 2021. It's 2022 and no progress was made to try to fix it.
