Frostpunk: Why it's still worth playing in 2024 - e1
0THE CITY MUST SURVIVE Frostpunk, from the creators of This War of Mine, is a society survival game where heat means life and every decision has a price. In a frozen world, people develop steam-powered technology to combat the cold. Build the last city on Earth and secure your community's survival. Optimization and resource management clash with empathy and decision-making. While managing your city takes time, exploring the outside world is necessary to understand its history. What decisions will you make for your society's survival? What will you do when pushed to the limit? And who will you become in the process? MAKE THE LAW Establish laws that regulate your growing society. Decide on their routine, healthcare, food provision, and other aspects of life. Maintain their hope and contentment – the moral condition of your society is as crucial as providing for their basic needs. SHAPE YOUR SOCIETY When you reach a turning point, determine the path of your people. Will you rule with an iron fist or show compassion? Choose extremes or try to find balance. Remember: there's no turning back. WEIGH UP YOUR CHOICES Some decisions may seem small, like deciding the fate of a troubled citizen, but the sum of your actions 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 events while investing in development and technology. Providing advanced infrastructure with self-powered automatons and airships is difficult but achievable, depending on your management and leadership skills. EXPLORE THE FROSTLAND While New London is your main focus, much more exists beyond your city. Expeditions can bring valuable intel, supplies, and grow your society's population. There may be people out there, and their fate lies in your hands. PLAY ENDLESSLY Frostpunk Endless Mode offers unlimited replayability. Play on 8 maps with different terrains, weather conditions, and challenges. Different people seek different experiences, so there are 3 modes in Endless Mode.
