Chill Game 9/10 (2019)

Great things about game
:Frostpunks Mechanics are on point, a survival game about ensuring how to keep you city warm as well as trying to balance it with hope and discontentness really mixes well in this game. which is sad as i didnt even know this was a game till recently

:Frostpunk Is Insane in its testing of morals and politics

:Frostpunk is really pressuring in the sense that if you dont check and make your processes efficent it can cause your whole opperation to fail

:The main level takes around 5 hours to finish <that doesnt include your failed attempts> and it feels like an adventure througout the whole level, with side story and challenges that hinder your progress whilst playing the game.
PLUS this game has 3 more senarios that extend the games for a longer time, although i havent tried it it still takes place in the same universe and area of the game. Both mentioning the Londoners which is a faction in the game.

REALLY MAJOR SPOILERS Upon completing the game you end off with a cutscene made just for you. the game replays a timelaspe of your city being built from begining to end whilst telling you the actions made to be there such as what kind of laws you past to ensure the continuation of life. And questions you finally wheter it was really worth it


Bad things about game
:Frostpunk is not a tutorial game, so it doesnt have a full blown tutorial on how to optimise, the only tutorial it has is a side menu that describes the building or mechanic your experiencing now which isnt bad as a mini tutorial but not sufficent for more casual players.

:The game can be fustrating at times as it doesnt have a tutorial so i suggest just watching a few or 1 videos on tips with early game building, which really helped me complete my first scenario.

Personal Comments

:I just found this game really good in terms of its foundations and game mechanics, of hope and discontentness which really makes you feel like a desprate leader trying to just make the city live, if you played it the way you would if you yourself were trying to ensure a city lives, it really makes you think about your actions and doubt yourself whether it was necsassary to pass such laws or leave people behind.

I found myself gripping my mouse near the ending as it really just was tense seeing just everything fail infront of my eyes from people sick to the constant ringing of people dying from cold and hunger at the same time
