Frostpunk is one of the most immersive games I have ever played, ever. For a city builder, this is crazy to me that they were able to create such an experience as this one.

Let me be clear, this is not "just another city builder". I went into this with a little bit of a misconception that this would be a post-apocalyptic city builder, with some hard choices to make, harder resource management, etc.

I was wrong in quite a few ways. First of all, this game is scenario based. You can actually win...and also lose, very harshly. It's a city builder in gameplay, but a management/sim in implementation. You have to decide what will happen to your frozen colony, either with decisions or laws. It might seem a bit rail-roady if you were hoping to "build your city however you please", but I feel like that might be the only limiting factor of this game. Because it forces you to make these decisions in such tight circumstances, it allows the game to dig deep into the player. Who knew that unethical or immoral choices could be so fun.
