ItвЂ™s the time factor that stops you rushing ahead plonking down this that and the next thing, and even though thereвЂ™s an option to speed up time, I soon discovered it was not always the best thing to do because there is so much to monitor. The clock is literally ticking in Frostpunk, time is of the essence as the temperature gets colder and the needs of the population change. This all sounds simple enough but Frostpunk can feel brutal. The survivors need food, health care, shelter, resources, and most importantly hope. Once thatвЂ™s established early on, the game becomes a continual race against time. Why they would head north is a bit puzzling, surely itвЂ™s colder up north? ItвЂ™s at this point the gameвЂ™s action starts.Д®verything in Frostpunk is affected by temperature so the main goal is to keep city inhabitants alive with heat. Deciding itвЂ™s not a great idea to stay in London, the city survivors head north to establish New London. The game follows the story of LondonвЂ™s inhabitants as they leave the city after catastrophic climate change, an ice age thatвЂ™s wiping out everyone. This is not your usual city builder, itвЂ™s not about making luxury housings or beautified streets peppered with parks and libraries, itвЂ™s about the survival of humankind and deciding what kind of a ruler you want to be. 11-Bit Studios are back with a new game and itвЂ™s Frostpunk, a game that can best be described as a survival city builder management sim.
