About Frostpunk

✦ AI summary

Build and lead the last city on Earth through impossible survival choices where every decision shapes your society's laws, morality, and fate in a frozen wasteland. Manage resources, establish brutal or compassionate rule, and balance optimization with empathy as you explore a dying world and develop steam-powered technology to keep your people alive.

EVERY END IS A NEW BEGINNING

Since the premiere, Frostpunk has been enriched with a number of updates. You can enjoy the new Endless Mode that increases the replayability of the game. There is also a new scenario - The Fall of Winterhome, that further expands the game’s universe and lore. And as a final treat, we’ve added things like naming characters and automatons and a photo mode. All of this is available for free for all the owners of the game. There are also three expansions, available with the paid Season Pass.Although we are no longer planning further development for the original version of Frostpunk, the possibility of reliving the founding story of New London is rising on the horizon. Frostpunk 1886 will be a reimagination of the original game - remade entirely in Unreal Engine and enriched with new content.It will combine 70% of the original experience with 30% brand-new material, offering fresh ways to shape your society for seasoned veterans, while also serving as a great entry point to the franchise for newcomers.We’re committed to launching the game in 2027. As the date approaches, you can expect more exciting updates, a first look at gameplay, and behind-the-scenes content, so be sure to wishlist it and follow our social media channels to be the first to know about future updates!

ABOUT THE GAME


THE CITY MUST SURVIVE


Frostpunk is a society survival game where heat means life and every decision comes at a price. In an entirely frozen world, people develop steam-powered technology to oppose the overwhelming cold. You face the task of building the last city on Earth and securing the means necessary for your community to survive.

Optimization and resource management often clash with empathy and thoughtful decision-making. While city and society management will consume most of the ruler’s time, at some point exploration of the outside world is necessary to understand its history and present state.

What decisions will you make to ensure the survival of your society? What will you do when pushed to the limit? And who will you become in the process?

MAKE THE LAW

Establish laws that regulate the existence of your growing society. Decide on their working routine, healthcare, food provision and other crucial aspects of everyday life. Maintain their hope and contentment – the moral condition of your society is as important as securing the basic means to keep them fed and safe.

SHAPE YOUR SOCIETY

If you reach a turning point, do not hesitate to determine the path of your people. Should you rule them with an iron fist... or show them a way of compassion and faith? Reach for extremes or try to find a fair balance. Whichever you choose, remember: there’s no turning back.

WEIGH UP YOUR CHOICES

Some of your decisions will seem small – like deciding the fate of a troubled citizen or meeting the demands of a newborn faction – but be aware that the sum of your doings can lead to unexpected results. Your people put their faith in you, but their devotion is not limitless. Leadership can be a burden.

DEVELOP NEW TECHNOLOGIES

Survival demands progress. React to current events, but don’t forget about the long term and investing in development and technological progress. Providing a highly advanced infrastructure with self-powered automatons, airships, and other technical wonders is difficult, but achievable. It all depends on your management and leadership skills.

EXPLORE THE FROSTLAND

While New London is your main focus, there is much more to the world than what lies within the limits of your city. Expeditions, while risky, can bring you valuable intel, precious supplies and grow your society’s population. There may be people out there, and their fate lies solely in your hands.

PLAY ENDLESSLY

Frostpunk Endless Mode grants you unlimited replayability for the game. Play on 8 various maps, with different terrain, weather conditions and challenges to face. We know that different people look for different experiences and that’s why there are 3 modes to play in Endless Mode. Endurance will be an ultimate test to your building, managing and survival skills in the harshest conditions. Builders, where there is no generator available from the start, which creates a different type of challenge. And last but not least, Serenity which is focused on enjoying the art of building the city itself, without unnecessary pressure.

It took me around 25 hours to complete the “A New Home” scenario, and I have to say, Frostpunk pleasantly surprised me in more ways than I expected. The Law system has a much bigger impact on the gameplay than I initially thought. Every decision you make can shape the way your city develops, and some choices can have consequences you definitely won't see coming. The research system is also extremely well integrated into the gameplay. Every single upgrade feels meaningful, and even the smallest technological improvement can have a noticeable impact on your city and its survival. The developers did an amazing job balancing all the different aspects of the game. Frostpunk manages to combine city building, resource management, psychology, decision-making, research, and the constant threat of freezing to death into one incredibly cohesive experience. You're not just building a city — you're constantly making difficult decisions about how to keep people alive, and that's what makes the gameplay so engaging. I also have to give huge credit to the visual presentation. The game looks fantastic, and the zoom in/zoom out system works flawlessly. Getting close to the city and watching every…

The Thaumaturge price: buy it, or let Game Pass cover it?

The Thaumaturge price has not moved more than seventy cents in four months, and the game is on Game Pass. Which of those two facts should decide your purchase.

Games like Remember Me, for the memory remix more than the city

Games like Remember Me, picked for the Memory Remix rather than the neon: minds you can break into, a vertical city to climb, and combos you build yourself.

Games like Noita, where the physics is the real enemy

Games like Noita for the two things it really does: spells you assemble yourself, and a simulated world that takes nobody's side. Seven picks, from a slugcat to a dwarf fortress.
