Una droga
Frostpunk is intense. It's a city builder, but instead of just worrying about money, you're trying to keep your people alive in a frozen apocalypse. You make tough choices, deal with discontent, and always feel like you're barely hanging on. It's stressful and sometimes it feels a bit bleak, but it's incredibly unique and surprisingly gripping. If you want a survival game that tests more than just your resource management skills, Frostpunk is unforgettable.
Fun to pick up and try some attempts every now and then. Very RNG heavy, but enjoyable to learn. Sometimes leans into being more of a "story" game then a fair city builder with events that lower hope/raise discontent due to story, which isn't a bad thing, but can be frustrating on replays or on higher difficulties. Still a great aesthetic and challenge, looking forward to 2 and maybe someday doing the other scenarios than just the default one :^)
About once a year I return to Frostpunk to get a handful of playthroughs in, mostly in the main scenario, but this wonderfully weird combination of survival game and city builder always tends to pull me back when I'm lacking in something else to play. It took me a little while to wrap my mind around the intricacies of its systems but it's thankfully a game that's still fun to learn even in failure.
The biggest compliment I can give to Frostpunk is that I originally played this game in the middle of summer, and by the end of my first session, the unyielding oppression of its frozen scenario left me positively freezing in real life. There's a genuine psychological effect to it that makes you absolutely feel like you're cold, even when it's 90 degrees outside. Never experienced anything like that before.
