Game is surprisingly good and it holds up well compared to the PC version. Has the tech tree, the law tree and expeditions which gives depth and variety as well as some longevity. I spent a couple bucks to get started on storage. My only gripes:1. Game is surpisingly easier with surplus of resources (at least about 3-4 hours in) which deviates from PC version that is much hardcore which leads me to my second gripe which is..2. You cannot fail. This is the sole mission of this game on the PC version. You can essentially fail with poor law management, city layout, and resource management. Its funny when i open the game (or let it run for a while), be at 0 coal, citizens freezing and the game not ending. Difficulty slider and hardcore mode is the bread and butter of this game, which they shouldnt have taken out.3. There are plenty of citizen requests in this game, which on paper is good. But it is way too many. I understand the game needs some sort of engagement for mobile gamers which are vastly different from PC gamers but still, it is way too much and i find myself constantly spamming crafts and fulfilling citizen requests which becomes a bit of a chore (akin to something like cookie clicker). Overall its a good game just needs some more polish and a bit of the PC formula to bring back what essentially makes Frostpunk what it is, a hardcore survival city sim.

I’ve been playing Frostpunk for over 2 years now and I’m a big fan of 11 Bit Studios since the start and I must day this is an amazing port that the devs has collaborated to work on!! Absolutely love the aesthetic and is true to the original gameplay on PC! Some things are different which is expected for a mobile game but they are easy to navigate. I still however prefer the original mechanics on PC but that is just my preference and this mobile version is definitely a must get regardless!! Keep it up developers!!

Just charge us for the game upfront AND LET US PLAY. It’s a FANTASTIC game, I’ll buy the content packs, I’ll buy the extra content — but build queues, micro transactions, tapping the screen like an animal to get more coal…and waiting??? Come on guys. Countless games have been ruined with strategies like this. The is whole paradigm is beyond broken, yet everyone copies it hoping to find the next whale who has $1K to spend. You’ll make so much more letting everyone pay for the game and just play. Let me play the game like it was designed on Steam—strategy, thoughtfulness, balance of resources, etc. This is monetization gone terribly wrong, resulting in a total-turn-off game experience. Bleh. Happy to change my rating once you abandon this monetization approach—then you’ll get a 5. PS. On the upside the cutscenes are cool and well done. But spend some money on a better pricing strategy. Time to bring in a professional.
