Just downloaded game. Launch it and black window pops up, I hear the game audio but the game doesn't launch any further. Then application is "not responding". Anything ideas that can help? I have Windows 11.

Run a Steam Verify operation against the game, see if that finds anything to fix.


If not Please attach here the game log C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Local\Introversion\Prison Architect\debug.txt

To see the AppData folder you'll need to enable View Hidden Items in File Explorer.

AND DXDIAG is a program you run from the Windows search box on the task bar. After running it will open a window and start collecting info with a progress bar in the lower-left corner. When it completes click the 'save all information' button and save it to a file then attach that file here.


THEN try Safe mode - does that work?
