- - - MEDIA ABOUT FROSTPUNK - - -

"(...) this is a game about finding reasons to survive rather than just the means to go on living."
- Adam Smith, Rock, Paper, Shotgun

"In a steampunk ice age, the only thing that can be crueler than the bitter cold are the decisions you have to make to keep your people alive."
- Stephanie Chan, VentureBeat

"(...) decisions push your morality to its limits for the sake of productivity, which could make for an captivating, draining adventure when the game releases later this year."
- Suriel Vazquez, Game Informer

- - - STORY - - -

In an ultimately frozen world, people develop steam-powered technology to oppose the overwhelming cold. The city ruler has to manage both the inhabitants and the infrastracture the citizens live in. Leader’s tactical skills face challenges, frequently questioning morality and the basic foundation of what we consider an organized society. Here optimization and resource management often clash with empathy and thoughtful decision-making. While city and society management consume most of the ruler’s time, at some point exploration of outside world is necessary to understand its history and present state.

What decisions will you make so the society can survive? What will you do when pushed to the limits? And...

...who will you become in the process?

The City must SURVIVE

Frostpunk is a city-survival game where heat means life and every decision comes with a cost.

Maintain the HOPE

Survival is about hope and will to live. Your ability to spark and maintain these two in your people will be a determinant factor for success.

Make the LAW

Society is a group of people abiding the same rules and sharing similar beliefs. Establishing laws and customs will be a crucial factor shaping your society.

Weight your CHOICES

Will you allow child-labour? How will you treat the sick and wounded? Frostpunk challenges a player’s tactical skills, while questioning one’s morality.

EXPLORE

The world covers not only bits of the past but also the potential means to secure the future of your people.

I hope this is a gift for Christmas Day

Agree'd.

As a resident of chicago, a game about a barren frozen wasteland dotted by warm glowing lights relates to me greatly.

Yeah yeah people have it worse than me. Canada, Russia, ANTARCTICA. But leave me alone, i rarely go out and anything below 40 F is horrible.

Ill need this game by late nov-december for those days when our poorly prepared chicago county inevetably keeps the roads snowed in for days.

The problem is that the world is "ultimately frozen". A discussion on Frostpunk called "Will the snow ever stop?" I'm curious how do you intend to solve this logical problem?

[philriggin]

Unfortunately I think they have pushed the release date into 2018.

[That unnervingly happy turtle.]

Would love to be able to play a demo of it though, looks like it'll be a fun game.

[LadyAth]

Frostpunk is absolutely on my MUST BUY list. Happy to wait for this one to be released when the devs are ready :)

[Mr. Warlord]

Releace will either be the day winter starts or christmas

because frozen waistland = Winter releace

[Redrusty66]

Looks very enticing, I hope it keeps being polished and isn't abandoned as so many are. Certainly adding to WL in the hopes it'll see the light of day...and not be be a broken mess when it does..lol

[Aeryn]

can't wait to buy this! >.<

[Jon]

Are you able to tell us more about the game style? Will the final version of game be limited to x amount of days or will it allow you to take your time (sandbox)

If you had to compare a year irl that the snows came what century might it be? This, or next?

Will there be workshop support, or planned support?

Will there be airships for scouts to use? :)

[Kylo Ben]

is there an option to burn the dead so in their lost life they can support the continuation and new life of the civ???

[AYAYA]

YO! CG are super cool! I love the stories like this! So expected:D

[Mopc]

Hi Devs! Is release deate still in Q1 2018? or just 2018? :)

[Rolhn]

You know what would be cool Devs? If you actually release Bi-weekly reports on how you are doing so it gives us hope that the game is on track/schedule and to let us know that you haven't forgotten about us people are waiting for your game to come on. Don't take the No Mans Sky route and not say anything for weeks/months at a time.

That's not the "No Mans Sky route" it's the way games were made for years, just sit back and wait for the game ot come out.
