Introduction to Lands of Jail
Lands of Jail (LoJ) is a prison-themed simulation and 戦略 game developed by YiWorld, released in 5月 2025 for iOS and Android. The game combines 拠点-建物 simulation mechanics with large-scale 戦略 (SLG) gameplay, where you manage a prison facility, recruit and train powerful inmates as ヒーロー, build alliances, and バトル other players on a shared world map.
If you've played games like Whiteout Survival, Rise of Kingdoms, or The Grand Mafia, you'll find many familiar mechanics in Lands of Jail. However, the prison theme adds a unique twist: instead of surviving a frozen apocalypse or 建物 a criminal empire, you're running the ultimate correctional facility.
This ガイド covers everything you need to know to get started, from your first login to your first week of gameplay.

Getting Started: Account Creation & チュートリアル
Downloading the Game
Lands of Jail is available on both major mobile platforms:
- iOS: Search "Lands of Jail" on the App Store
- Android: Search on Google Play Store
The game is free-to-play with optional in-app purchases.
The チュートリアル Phase
When you first log in, you'll be ガイドd through a mandatory チュートリアル that covers:
- Facility setup: Placing your first 建物s
- 囚人 intake: Receiving your first inmates
- 資源 collection: Learning how food, materials, and currency work
- Basic 戦闘: Defending against your first riot/攻撃
Pro Tip: Don't rush through the チュートリアル. Pay attention to the mechanics being explained, especially resource management — it will save you hours of confusion later.
Binding Your Account
After the チュートリアル, immediately bind your account to one of the available options:
- Google Play / Game Center
This prイベント progress loss if you switch devices or encounter bugs.
Understanding the Core Mechanics
Lands of Jail operates on two interconnected gameplay layers:
1. Simulation Management (拠点 建物)
You manage a prison facility on a customizable map. Your core tasks include:
- Constructing and アップグレード 建物s
- Producing and storing 資源
- Housing and managing inmates
- 研究ing technologies to unlock new capabilities
- Defending your 拠点 from 攻撃
2. 戦略 (World Map)
Outside your prison, there's a shared world map where you:
- Send 部隊 to gather 資源 from nodes
- 攻撃 other players' prisons (PvP)
- Defend against incoming raids
- Participate in alliance wars and イベント
- Complete PvE missions and campaigns
Key Currencies
| Currency | How to Get | What It's Used For |
|---|---|---|
| Food | Mess Hall, Farms, World Gathering | Training 部隊, sustaining army |
| Materials | Workshop, Factory, World Gathering | 建物 建設, アップグレード |
| Cash | 囚人 labor, Tax system, イベント | 研究, special purchases |
| Gems (Premium) | IAP, Quests, イベント, Daily 報酬 | 速度-ups, premium summons, shop |
資源 Management Basics
資源 are the lifeblood of your prison. Running out means you can't build, train, or 研究 — effectively stalling your progress.
資源 Production 建物
Each resource has dedicated 生産 建物s. アップグレード these regularly to increase your hourly output:
- Mess Hall / Kitchen → Produces Food
- Workshop / Factory → Produces Materials
- Laundry / Administration → Produces Cash
資源 Protection
Your warehouse determines how many 資源 are protected from enemy raids. Anything beyond the warehouse capacity can be stolen during a successful 攻撃 on your 拠点.
Key Rules:
- Always keep your Warehouse アップグレードd
- Don't stockpile excess 資源 — spend them on アップグレード
- Use 資源 before logging off to minimize raid losses
- Send excess 資源 to alliance members if you're about to be 攻撃ed
World Map Gathering
Send 部隊 to resource tiles on the world map for additional income:
- Level 1-3 tiles: Low yield, safe for beginners
- Level 4-6 tiles: Moderate yield, some risk
- Level 7+ tiles: High yield, high risk (contested)
Pro Tip: Always gather with the appropriate 部隊 type for maximum efficiency. Send a scout first to check for enemy activity.
建物 優先度: What to アップグレード First
Not all 建物s are created equal. Here's the recommended アップグレード 優先度 for new players:
Tier 1: Critical 優先度 (Always アップグレード First)
| 建物 | Why It's Critical |
|---|---|
| Warden's Office (HQ) | Unlocks new features and 建物 level caps |
| Warehouse | Protects 資源 from raids |
| Mess Hall | Food is needed for everything |
| Cell Blocks | Increases 囚人 capacity |
Tier 2: High 優先度
| 建物 | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Guard Barracks | Trains basic 戦闘 units |
| Workshop | Produces materials for 建設 |
| Infirmary | Heals wounded 部隊 (reduces losses) |
| 研究 Lab | Unlocks permanent ボーナス via tech tree |
Tier 3: Medium 優先度
| 建物 | Role |
|---|---|
| Training Yard | アップグレード 部隊 tiers |
| Embassy | Enables alliance reinforcement |
| Sniper Tower | 拠点 防衛 |
| ラリー Point | Organizes alliance marches |
アップグレード 戦略 Tips
- Keep your HQ at the highest possible level — it gates everything else
- Don't let your resource 建物s fall more than 2-3 levels behind your HQ
- アップグレード the Warehouse before sleeping to protect overnight 生産
- Use 速度-up items on long アップグレード before logging off
囚人/Hero System Explained
囚人 (also called Inmates or ヒーロー) are the heart of Lands of Jail's progression system. Each 囚人 has unique ステータス, skills, and rarities.
Rarity System
| Rarity | Stars | Availability | Power Level |
|---|---|---|---|
| Common | ⭐ | Easy to obtain | Low |
| Rare | ⭐⭐ | Moderate | Decent early game |
| Epic | ⭐⭐⭐ | Somewhat rare | Strong mid-game |
| Legendary | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Hard to get | Very strong |
| Mythic | ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Very rare | Meta-defining |
How to Obtain 囚人
- Summons/Gacha: Use premium currency or tickets to recruit random 囚人
- イベント: Limited-time イベント often feature specific 囚人
- Shard Collection: Collect shards from various sources to unlock/アップグレード
- Campaign 報酬: Complete PvE stages for guaranteed 囚人
- Alliance Store: Exchange alliance points for 囚人 shards
Upgrading 囚人
- Level Up: Use XP materials to increase 拠点 ステータス
- Star Up: Duplicate shards increase star level and unlock skill tiers
- Skill アップグレード: Invest 資源 to improve active and passive skills
- Equipment: Gear up 囚人 with equipment for additional ステータス
Beginner Tip: Focus on 3-5 core 囚人 rather than spreading 資源 evenly. A well-アップグレードd Epic is usually better than a freshly-obtained Legendary.
戦闘 and 部隊 ガイド
部隊 Types
Lands of Jail uses a rock-paper-scissors 部隊 system:
| 部隊 Type | Strong Against | Weak Against | Role |
|---|---|---|---|
| Guards (Infantry) | Snipers | Riot Police | Front-line tanks |
| Snipers (Ranged) | Riot Police | Guards | High DPS from backline |
| Riot Police (Cavalry) | Guards | Snipers | Fast, mobile response |
戦闘 Basics
- Scout before 攻撃: Always send a scout to check enemy 防衛s
- 部隊 composition matters: A balanced army (e.g., 40% Infantry, 30% Ranged, 30% Cavalry) performs well in most situations
- ヒーロー lead armies: Assign your best 戦闘 囚人 as march leaders
- Check power ratings: Don't 攻撃 players with significantly higher power
- Time your 攻撃: 攻撃 when the target is offline for maximum surprise
防衛 Tips
- Keep a garrison of 部隊 at home when your main army is out
- Assign your best 防衛 囚人 as garrison commander
- アップグレード your Sniper Tower and walls
- Use シールド items when you can't actively defend
Alliance System: Why You Need One
Joining an alliance is not optional if you want to progress efficiently. Here's why:
Benefits of 同盟への参加
| Benefit | Description |
|---|---|
| 資源 Help | Alliance members can send each other 資源 |
| Reinforcement | Members can station 部隊 in each other's 拠点 |
| Alliance Tech | Shared 研究 tree with permanent ボーナス |
| Alliance Wars | Large-scale PvP with valuable 報酬 |
| Alliance Store | Purchase exclusive items with alliance points |
| 領土 ボーナスes | 資源 yield ボーナス in alliance 領土 |
| Social Connection | Guidance from experienced players |
How to Choose an Alliance
- Active daily membership — look for alliances with 30+ daily active members
- Similar time zone — coordinated 攻撃 require overlapping online times
- Language match — communication is key during wars
- Appropriate power level — don't join a top alliance if you can't contribute yet

Teleporting to Alliance 領土
Critical: Use your free Alliance Teleport (given early in the game) to relocate near your alliance's headquarters. This enables:
- Faster reinforcement
- Alliance 領土 ボーナス
- Coordinated 防衛
Don't waste your free teleport on random relocation — save it for joining your permanent alliance.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
1. Spending Gems on 速度-Ups
Gems are precious. Save them for 囚人 summons (especially during rate-up イベント) rather than shaving a few minutes off 建物 アップグレード.
2. Neglecting 資源 建物
It's tempting to focus on military, but without a strong 経済, you can't sustain an army. Balance is key.
3. 攻撃ing Without Scouting
Always scout. Walking into a trap because you didn't check enemy 部隊 composition is the #1 way to lose your army.
4. Hoarding 資源
資源 sitting in your 拠点 are a magnet for raiders. If you have a surplus, convert it into アップグレード or 部隊 immediately.
5. Upgrading Everything Equally
Focus on your HQ and a few critical 建物s. Spreading 資源 evenly means nothing reaches high levels.
6. Ignoring the Tech Tree
研究 provides permanent stat ボーナス. Even "boring" 経済 研究 pays off massively over time.
7. Not 同盟への参加 Early
The earlier you join, the more 報酬 you accumulate from alliance イベント. Don't wait.
よくある質問(FAQ)

アップグレード your Warehouse to protect more 資源, and don't stockpile beyond what you need. You can also use シールドs (available from イベント/shop) to temporarily prイベント 攻撃.
When should I teleport to my alliance?
As soon as you've found a permanent alliance. Use the free Alliance Teleport you receive early in the game. Don't waste it on random moves.
How do I reset or reroll my account?
