any RPGs that extensively feature prison life?
not just getting arrested as a fail state, and not just a scripted sequence where you immediately break out. a game where you can embrace imprisonment and gain wealth and status within the prison population.

Planet Alcatraz. Game is set on the penile planet with heavy russian prison subculture references. Lead writer worked as a guard IIRC.

>Hard time
that was the first one I thought of but trying to remember anything specific about it to google other than it being the work of a solo hyper-autist and being ancient internet history wasn't a lot to go on
i'm really glad you mentioned it or it would bug me for a while

Space Rangers 2 is a genre salad that's effectively several games in one. One of the parts is the interactive fiction 'text quests', one of which being a daily prison life sim that triggers if you get caught for something illegal. You get to train several stats, get respect of the inmates or get on good terms with the guards by snitching, train a cockroach to take part in cockroach racing, get beat up for various reasons, dig a tunnel, be a good boy and apply for shorter prison sentence, and a bunch of other stuff. One time I was getting into it and a fellow ranger bailed me out.

'Hard Time' is the only correct answer for this but it's not an RPG, I wish it was, but it's very close.
