In Frostpunk, a new Ice Age wiped out a large part of the population in the 19th century. A small group of survivors begins to build a settlement around a huge generator. In addition to the real-time strategy component, the players have to survive at minus 40 degrees.

The cold and the constant lack of resources bare the morale of the survivors. The computer game was praised for the gloomy atmosphere. In the board game, one to four players take on the role of leaders of the settlement. It is their job to build up the settlement despite the adverse circumstances and try to survive.
