Frostpunk New HD Cover

Description

Frostpunk is a city-building survival game developed and published by 11 bit studios for Microsoft Windows. Within three days of release, it had sold over 250,000 copies. Plot The game is set in an alternate 1886 where the eruptions of Krakatoa and Mount Tambora, the dimming of the Sun, and other unknown factors caused a worldwide volcanic winter. This in turn led to widespread crop failure and the death of millions. This event roughly lines up with the real world 1883 eruption of Krakatoa, a volcanic event that led to global cooling. In response to this, several installations called "generators" were built in the coal-rich North, designed to be city centers in the event that dropping temperatures force mass migration from the south. In all scenarios, the player is the leader of a city around a generator, and will have to manage resources to ensure the city's survival. There are currently 3 scenarios in the game, each with different backgrounds and storylines. Minecraft
