In Frostpunk, players take on the ruler of the last city on Earth, deserted after a new ice age. The survival of society depends on their decisions. Each time users are faced with a difficult choice between saving resources and meeting the needs of people, developing the city itself, and saving the fate of individual settlers.

Frostpunk was released on April 24, 2018, for PC (Windows). In October 2019, the game appeared on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and in February 2021 – on macOS. In 2018, the simulator received a free scenario, “The Fall of Winterhome,” and an endless mode (Endless Mode), and later – three paid DLC (“The Rifts,” as well as the aforementioned “Last Autumn” and ” On the edge”). The base game has a Metacritic rating of  84/100 and has “very positive” reviews on Steam (90% of all reviews over 52,000 are positive).
