Like any other Eastern European over the age of thirty, I grew up hearing all manner of wild stories about the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, some more believable than others.

Frostpunk 2 is pretty much everything you could want from a sequel. The game expands upon the foundation laid down by the original while introducing fresh systems and mechanics. There’s nothing particularly innovative to look forward to here, but that’s to be expected and isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Sometimes all players want from a sequel is the same type of gameplay they already love coupled with updated visuals and some new features to keep things fresh. If that’s what you’re looking for too, you won't be disappointed by what Frostpunk 2 has to offer.
