Frostpunk, the newest title from the creators of This War of Mine, 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.
About the story
In an entirely frozen world, people develop steam-powered technology to oppose the overwhelming cold. The city’s ruler has to manage both the citizens and the infrastructure they live in. The leader’s tactical skills face challenges that will frequently question morality and the basic foundations of what we consider organized society. 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?

By Patryk DzięglewiczThe three additions collected together to the poop are a solid expansion of the Frostpunk universe. Only the price for each of them can stop the desire to buy, but new players in the topic is offered a complete edition of the game easier to swallow for the wallet.

By Sarwar RonFrostpunk is a great addition to the genre and console players might want to finally know what all the fuzz was about.

By Sina GolabzadeFrostpunk is one of the best strategy videogames of not only the recent years but maybe all times and now that the whole package is on consoles, it is a great time to experience this hellish ice storm.

By Josh Di FalcoFrostpunk is quite simply one of the best city-building experiences on the PlayStation 4 with a highly detailed narrative written for four huge campaigns. The sadness in there only being four campaigns is a true testament to the team at 11 Bit Studios, as they have crafted such a memorable experience, with gut-wrenching decisions at every turn. The savagery of the game can have long-lasting effects that can carry into the subsequent play-throughs, as the memories of what arose from making previous decisions can sway future decisions down other pathways. For those who wish to experience a more laid-back 'Sim City' like experience, then this title may not be the right title to jump into. However after experiencing this, it will be easy to feel anxious to see whatever the team behind it has in store next.

By Martin BagoFrostpunk isn't for everyone, but if you're into hardcore strategy games, there's no reason you won't love the console version as well. The novel setting coupled with the interesting game mechanics will keep you entertained for quite a while.
