Frostpunk is a city-survival game in which heat means life, and every decision comes with a cost. Living among the frozen remnants of Earth, it is up to you to shape society, establishing the laws and customs to ensure survival.
The premise begins by imagining what society is capable of when pushed to the limit. In a completely frozen world, people develop steam-powered technology to oppose the overwhelming cold. Society in its current form becomes ineffective and it has to change in order to survive. What does this change mean? What is culture when morality stands in the way of existence? In the end, survival may transform us completely. Whether that change makes us better or worse, stronger or weaker, or even more or less humane is debatable.
With the future of humankind in your hands, Frostpunk is both a challenge of tactical planning and a test of your own humanity.
Indie dev. studio 11 bit studios revealed thatFrostpunk has sold over 250k copies since its April 24, 2018 launch.
"Yes, we had plans for the expansions and now we're 100% sure we are doing that, including many free updates of course!," said 11 bit studios CEO Grzegorz Miechowski.
