Challenge your moral decision-making skills

Frostpunk is a city-building survival game developed and published by 11 bit studios. The game is set in a fictional world that is in the midst of a severe ice age, and players are tasked with leading a small group of survivors who have taken shelter around a coal-powered generator.

In Frostpunk action game, you must manage resources, construct buildings and infrastructure, and make difficult decisions that will determine the fate of your society. As the leader, you must make tough moral choices and weigh the needs of the individual against the survival of the group.

A New Home

The plot of Frostpunk is set in a fictional 19th-century steampunk world where a volcanic winter has caused a worldwide glaciation. The player takes on the role of a leader of a small group of survivors who have established a settlement around a massive coal-powered generator known as The Generator. The game is divided into two very interesting main scenarios: A New Home and The Arks

In A New Home, your task is to build and maintain a functioning city around the generator, while managing the citizens' needs such as warmth, food, shelter, and medical care. You must also send scouts to explore the frozen wasteland to gather resources and rescue other survivors. Along the way, the players must also make difficult moral decisions that can affect the survival of the city. 

The Arks

In The Arks scenario, players lead a group of scientists who have built arks to preserve humanity's knowledge and culture. You must transport these arks to a new site while facing new challenges. Throughout both scenarios, you must balance the needs of the city against the moral implications of their decisions. These decisions include issues such as whether to use child labor, implement a curfew, or resort to cannibalism

This Frostpunk game features a stunning art style and an atmospheric soundtrack that adds to the game's immersive experience. The game offers multiple possible endings, depending on the player's choices, and different scenarios to play, which increases its replayability. It is a well-designed game that offers a unique and challenging gameplay experience. However, limited building options and a lack of customization compared to other city-building games.
