Objects Prison Architect Guide

Last update: 25 May 2016

Objects are items found in the prison and used in any way by the prisoners or personnel. They can be divided into a few categories, depending on their utility and how they are used:

  • Aesthetical - they don't have any practical use, they just serve as decorations (e.g. trees, doors);
  • Production - they are used to produce goods (e.g. workshop press and saw);
  • Utilities - they satisfy the needs of prisoners (e.g. toilet, bed, bench);
  • Office - used by the prison staff (e.g. desk, chair, cctv);

Below you will find a list of all objects available in the game, with an additional comment and most important information for each of them.
