After the end of the coal era, the salvation for the remnants of humanity must be the conquest of the Frosty Lands, where you can get oil. Change is not easy, and not all segments of society like new options for development.

Different people and factions demand and expect different things, which creates tension and conflict. But is a ruthless approach to politics and Machiavellian cunning so necessary? The eternal cold continues to squeeze the city in its embrace, every now and then there are external threats … Unite the people and prepare them for inevitable victims! “, – says the description.

We have almost 70 people on our team and are constantly growing, so we have the opportunity to pay attention to all aspects, considering the scale, production cost and quality of the interface.

“Our goal is to create a huge universe for players where you can endlessly make decisions, creating your own society and city to match it. And to unravel the consequences, of course. Frostpunk 2 is based on the same conflicts as the first part of the series: you need to survive on the wild freezing cold, while not forgetting about humanity. But we added a new layer that changed many aspects of the game, including politics, society and technological progress. Now people also have to fight with their own nature. “
