After the world is consumed by a volcanic winter, the last flicker of civilization gathers around a massive Generator in the frozen ruins of the north. New London is born—not from hope, but from necessity. Tasked with keeping the city alive, a reluctant leader known only as The Captain navigates a brutal landscape of famine, fear, and rebellion. As coal runs low and temperatures drop to inhuman depths, they must decide who lives, who works, and who is left to die. Haunted by loss and pressured by rising political factions—the zealous Order, the defiant Londoners, the desperate masses—The Captain fights to preserve both the city and their own humanity. But in a world where warmth is power and dissent is treason, survival demands impossible choices. Frostpunk is a bleak, political survival drama about the collapse of morality under the weight of leadership—and what happens when saving the future means destroying everything you once believed in.
