Frostpunk is set in an alternate version of 1886. While the exact point of divergence from our timeline remains uncertain, the technology, prominent figures, and events hinted at through the game's lore suggest that the split could have occurred as early as 1822.
Frostpunk 2 takes place 30 years after original game.
Frostpunk 1[edit | edit source]
In the summer of 1886 the snowstorms began. Crops failed, people starved. Millions fled south. They met only destruction, famine, and death. In the farthest reaches of resource-rich north, the British Empire began construction of massive heat-radiating Generators, These grand engines would allow a chosen few to survive the frigid global winter, safe from the chaos of crumbling civilization.
They ran out of time.
An apocalyptic ice storm came from the south, devouring all in its path. People fled in panic. Some managed to cross the seas and reach the site of a Generator, only to find it frozen solid.
The Generator was designed to power a City capable of weathering the end of the world...
It falls to us to build it.

Frostpunk 2[edit | edit source]
As the city's steward, you wield authority over the citizens and their welfare. Leadership, however, does not ensure your protection, as the specter of anarchy and insurrection looms, ever ready to upset the fragile equilibrium maintained by your meticulous oversight.
Multiple communities and factions are present. The Steward must navigate laws and ideas to find the way through for the growing city-state.
