Hard Time is an interactive, open-world action game that immerses players in the life of a newly convicted felon.
Gameplay and Controls
In Hard Time, players take on the role of a criminal who has recently been incarcerated. The game begins with a courtroom sequence where players receive their sentence from a judge, setting the tone for the intense prison life experience to come. Subsequently, a guard escorts the player to their cell, where the real action begins.
The controls of Hard Time are consistent with other games developed by Mdickie, featuring a virtual d-pad on the left side of the screen and action buttons on the right. These intuitive controls allow players to interact with various elements in the game, making the gaming experience more engaging and dynamic.
Freedom and Interaction
As with most open-world games, Hard Time offers players a variety of actions that vary depending on the items in their hands or in their vicinity. From eating a hamburger to firing a gun, the level of interaction in this game is impressively detailed.
The game operates on an open-ended premise, where the player's prison sentence can be extended based on their actions. For instance, attacking a guard can result in an additional trial and an extended sentence. This element of the game adds a layer of realism, reinforcing the importance of decision-making and strategic planning.
Entertainment Value
Within the prison, players have the ability to interact with any character and engage in a variety of activities. The constant tension between prisoners and wardens adds an element of unpredictability and excitement to the game. In essence, Hard Time is a sandbox game set within a prison environment, providing a unique gaming experience that is both entertaining and challenging.
