What this post doesn't tell you, dear reader, is how Frostpunk will kick you in the dick repeatedly and you'll learn to like it. It is a fascinating and difficult game, and not one to take lightly if you struggle separating digital game characters from real life empathy.
It's relentlessly bleak and cruel but fun and entertaining at the same time (at least the first one).
It's also really not all that hard once you figure out what's most important to grow the city.
