Yet, after the prison detail have been dismissed, and the discarded body sent to the morgue, one final report on the execution is needed to clarify it has been carried out lawfully and appropriately.Īs it turns out, the prisoner was innocent… I cannot help but feel responsible for his untimely demise. But this is my job in Prison Architect, and just like real life, someone has to do the dark duties of Death Row.
Sure, he is a criminal, and it is my lawful duty to go ahead with his execution but what if he is innocent? Or worse still, does he deserve to be put to rest by such cold, clinical means? But alas, this is simply a video game! I mean, look at the art style, there is no way this game can make me emotional about this, right?īut as I finally get the gumption to authorize his execution and press the unpresuming grey box, the sheer instantaneity of it disturbs me As if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. In pressing the button I will lead this little pixellated man to his death. This is a written version of my YouTube video,Īs I finally mouse over the words “authorize” I stop to contemplate what it is I am committing myself to.
