Frostpunk: The Board Game (2022)

Overview

In Frostpunk: The Board Game, is a cooperative game where players take on the role of leaders of a small colony of survivors in a post-apocalyptic world that was hit by a severe ice age. Their duty is to effectively manage both its infrastructure and citizens. The core gameplay will be brutal, challenging, and complex, but easy to learn. The citizens won’t just be speechless pieces on the board. Society members will issue demands and react accordingly to the current mood, so every decision and action bears consequences.

The players will decide the fate of their people. Will you treat them like another resource? Are you going to be an inspiring builder, a fearless explorer, or a bright scientist? Is your rule going to be a sting of tyranny or an era of law and equality?

The game begins as players choose a scenario from the Scenario book and set the board up for that scenario. The game is played over several Rounds. Each Round is divided into 9 Phases, ending with the Night Phase. The game ends when one of the lose conditions has been met, or you completed the goal of the scenario and win.
