Post-Apocalyptic · Survival
A city-builder that forces you to make impossible decisions, Frostpunk's blend of resource management and societal survival is its core. You'll balance coal production with the needs of your citizens as blizzards ravage your settlement, but the real challenge lies in enacting laws that push the boundaries of morality. The game's lasting impact comes from the difficult choices you're forced to make — like child labor or forced medical care — and the way these decisions shape your city's fate, and your legacy.
