Great game — loving it so far! That said, I’m not a fan of repeating the same steps over again after a freeze or crash, especially when I have to reload and try to remember what I was doing when it last saved (or autosaved). It’s happened so many times now that I’m beyond frustrated. Once I hit Act 3, the game started freezing constantly. After hours of digging through YouTube videos and Google searches, I finally found a tip that pointed to the auto temperature controller as the issue. Disabling it helped — you just have to toggle the button instead of leaving it on all the time. But then, about half an hour later, the game started randomly crashing. I haven’t figured that one out yet. My PC isn’t the issue — it’s less than a month old and more than capable of running this game. Whatever the cause is, it seems to be on their end. Hopefully they fix these problems, and if they do, I’ll gladly update my review. But considering this is months after full release and these issues are still happening — buyer beware.

I like Frostpunk I do not like Frostpunk 2 It just doesn't scratch the same itch - every single time I try to get lost in it I just end of thinking about what other game I could be spending my time on. Not sure what it is but there's definitely something "off" about this installment. Kinda wish it was FP1 but with multiple civilizations, instead we got this weird district system that doesn't hit the same. I appreciate the effort and risky change all the same. You hate to see it and I don't like giving the thumbs down on it but it's gotta happen, hopefully they'll adjust for the next installment (if there is one)

Updating the game and getting rid of any layout strategy whatsoever is not something I would call an improvement.

The Game is beautifully made and fun to play through - but it feels more like a DLC than a standalone game. I've beaten the full story twice (on a modest difficulty) with only 12 hours played. There is some replay-ability based on the choices you've made, and the difficulty level, but the maps are static and main story doesn't change much. I'd love to recommend this but with a price tag of $45 there are better options out there.

So I played my final session of Frostpunk 2 today. Utopia builder. I'd beaten the story campaign which had been my main goal. But in trying to beat Utopia builder even on the lowest setting I just realized how little fun the game was. The story mode at least gave me reason to keep trying with regard to getting to the end. But the game itself is just an insufferable balancing act with frankly, too much to balance and not enough resources to ever make you feel like you can enjoy yourself. It's just constantly rebalancing. I could barely explore the Frostlands without a new crowd of immigrants arriving. So now you have to raise funds, which lowers approval, to build the homes, that you don't have enough workforce for because they're building something else. It's just frustrating to constantly not be able to do things and realize my next hour of gameplay is just going to be waiting for enough prefabs even though I've built multiple factories that I can't actually staff without everyone getting sick because fuel is running out. When I played the original Frostpunk I could find a groove even on harder modes and this game just feels opposed to letting you have any of that groove most of the time. So whatever plans I had for buying the DLCs and supporting the game moving forward, I just can't. I'm not sure if they had a season pass or DLC pack but if they did I'm glad I didn't buy it, because the game just seems dead set against letting you enjoy yourself. I'm getting into other things here but it's a symptom of how the game's negativity just spilled over into everything else. I can't enjoy the music. I'm too stressed out by having to rebalance everything. I can't enjoy the visuals. You can't zoom in on things like you could in the first Frostpunk. The Frostlands map is visually dead; nothing looks distinct enough for me to visually identify when I zoom out so I'm just lost looking for people. I can't zoom in on colonies in any capacity. So I mean good job to the developers I guess. I'd purchased all the DLC from the prior game but this is where my journey with the Frostpunk franchise ends.

This comes off as a bit of a sophomore slump from the devs. While Frostpunk 1 was a masterfully challenging and engaging game, Frostpunk 2 seems to have jettisoned some of what works in favor of simply claiming "bigger". The most obvious flaw is the entire UI is just horrendous. Additionally the changes to city elements and districts makes this feel more like a 4X Civilization game than a real-time, city builder. While districts do bring something to the table, the limitations placed on them really shoehorn the player as opposed to the traditional city builder free for all. Ultimately, I do recommend the game, but it's very marginal. Im talking this fell 50.1% on the side of recommendation versus not.

The first game had a micro to macro charm that it mastered well. See those 200 sheds when you zoom out? I placed them there myself, one by one. 2 went full macro. Place 5000 sheds at once. I can no longer zoom in on little Billy and see what he is up to. I can no longer see how many visitors my local tavern has that evening. I can no longer get a moral dilemma by old Martha being beaten up by guards even though my city has 700 souls. They took the interesting part out of Frostpunk and turned it into Sim City. The macro is well done but it should only have been a part of the game. Not the game in its entirety. A major downgrade from the first game by not understanding its formula to greatness. Half the cooking recipe. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

It's okay. Polished, good vibes. Boring gameplay. This game has nothing on FP1. Saw somewhere that the devs said about this relative flop "singleplayer is dead" It's not, you just didn't make a game that was as good as the first one.

While I applaud the decision to try something different with Frostpunk 2, and I hate to give an 11 bit game a negative rating (especially after just finishing The Alters). This is just isn't it for me. I think there are just way too many moving parts, to the point that I don't really care about any of them, which causes this weird thing where I'm both overwhelmed and bored at the same time. The prologue was fun, but when I realised I'm now doubling my issues with another colony I called it quits.

when this game first came out i was disapointed, the building and district system just felt worse than frostpunk 1. so i put a few hours in, and gave up. then after a long time i decided to sit down and just give it a shot. it was way better than i thought. the gameplay fell together very nicely and i genuinly enjoyed it. although i do think frost punk excelled a little more in some areas, such as heating and stylisation (just my opinion, but i liked the designs and style of single building construction rather than districts) but the voting system is new and i liked it a lot (even though i cheesed it my constantly reducing the population of the opposing ideals) the only other thing that i would say this game fell short of the first game is how the city changes as you go down specific ideoligies. in the first if you went down ORDER, the city would change visibly, not just stats, banners would hang from roofs, the city would turn red, propaganda messages would play. that isn't here in the second game, no matter how far you go, the city looks the same other than some occasional messages about some laws you innacted. other than that, solid 8/10
