Frostpunk | PC GAMES

About this game From the creators of This War of Mine comes a new post-apocalyptic city-builder where players must do everything they can to make sure the citizens survive. The world has completely frozen over and your only hope of starting over is a heat generator tower that will serve as the core of your new city. Build around the generator and plan your city’s layout so that all structures that require heat will be covered. Manage not just your city but your citizens too. Ensuring survival as a society will require you to establish laws and make decisions based on the actions of your people. Research different technologies to unlock new structures and machines, opening up paths to different advancements for your city. Reviews Frostpunk says that’s it’s a city building game, but it’s much more that. It’s a test and to pass it you must fail somewhere. Save a few and sacrifice many, or let them all die, but your conscience is clear. I can only hope that players won’t be discouraged by the insanely difficult learning curve because I promise you, on the other end is a beautiful game that everyone has to experience. Softpedia   Frostpunk is special, it’s one of a kind in that the game is used as a vehicle to convey a message in a way that most games can’t even aspire to achieve. You’ll switch of your PC after a session and walk off filled with “what if’s” and that is an amazing experience. Few developers understand how to play the heart strings well, but 11 bit studios are proving themselves to be the orchestra conductor. Hooked Gamers   Those looking for a cheerful time constructing roads and positioning landmarks are in for no small amount of disappointment – Frostpunk is bleak. Really bleak. Each decision serves not to ensure progress, but to ensure survival against overwhelming odds. It’s essentially a “Crisis Management Simulator”, and I love it for that. Just remember to play something more cheerful immediately afterwards. The Digital Fix
