Frostpunk: Beyond the Ice for Negative User Reviews

✓ SadThis is just another sad mobile game port filled with micro transactions and fun pain. Stop making this junk and stop giving developers who do this your money..Swing KidVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Good luck trying to even get a nameThe game has BARELY been out and literally every name is “taken”. If you want an original name without numbers may the force be with you. It’s actually ridiculous.LiteboyyVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Needs to be more passiveThe game is good but it’s requiring you to take multiple actions every second of playing. There’s hardly a moment where I can just sit back and let it run. The game needs to incorporate more idle elements that can allow players to sit back and let the city grow/play out without having to tap and work every second..Fall from the skiesVersion: 1.2.2

✓ LieWhy did you write that there is Arabic language, but when I downloaded and logged in only English language.ĸнυℓυɒVersion: 1.2.2

✓ It’s okay.Let’s start out and said it monetization. Why not just charge full price for the game. But what’s worst is that the game is still in early access, but there is a store. The game has a following. I love Frostpunk. Put the original is so much better. Why pay to win. When I saw it, I was excited I thought it was a Going to be direct from console to iOS. But it wasn’t . Different mechanics , same set up, but way more of a grind. Unless of course you pay. Season pass?! What?! lol come on. You’re above this. You’re better than this..Gamer demiseVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Oh no! We’re cold and hungry! But I want to be paid…We’re facing the freezing apocalypse but no one wants to build another coal mine because they want shillings. Shillings are also arbitrarily capped to a miserable low daily rate so they can flog their MTX and you can buy “Hope”..Game Alicorn LunaVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Wanted to like this.Really tried to like this game and was willing to put up with some extra timers and usual mobile nerfing. However it’s just a slog through inscrutable systems and odd demands from the game. Your constantly pestered with “trade requests” that are absolutely at your disadvantage and the return for your time is not worth it. These in paired with the other demands to run your city are a nightmare of a UI issue, constant overlapping buttons that are opening a window that is not needed to be addressed. Overall these things next to a game with poor execution on informing the player of the strategy is pretty much unbearable unless your value of time spent it low..Ch4s3rVersion: 1.2.2

✓ UnfortunateI was so hopeful I could purchase the game and play it. Instead you are greeted with a game full of micro transactions, unnecessary data sharing, and a pay to win/progress model. Unfortunately, nothing like the original game on PC/Mac. If you were hopeful for a more consistent port to iphone/ipad, this is not it. I will stick to playing this via GeForce Now on my iPad from my Steam purchase..HaveDoVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Obviously the main game is better, but this has potential.I can’t even assign enough jobs to people since there’s a limit on how many workplaces I can build, however, the game wants me to keep upgrading houses to get more people to move in, which consumes more food. You shouldn’t have to keep tapping resources to pick them up, it should be stored automatically. It’s pretty dumb that you have to keep assigning workshop orders manually, instead of producing an item continuously. You should be able to trade basic resources with other settlements. Lastly, I kept playing until the tax office stopped collecting taxes, for an unknown reason. It is cool that you can dig holes in the snow by tapping on it tho..Skinny PancakesVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Won’t load past 10%.Can’t load game, won’t get past 10%. Inactive discord with no response or information. I played just fine at release last night and now I can’t even connect, nowhere does it say downtime at the moment either..DushahxhjakaksksVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Amazing game v.poor audio supportAnother brilliant game made unplayable by the fact there is no option to prioritise anything other than their audio. Please. PLEASE. Allow audio priority selection to those of us who like to play idle style games. I don’t want to hear background music in game, I’d like to continue to listen to a podcast or my own music. Sure this is an issue in iOS with their audio priority BUT the matter is devolved to the devs to set their audio priority. If I turn off music/sound effects then allow iOS to take back the audio priority for the user. Please get this sorted as this is a brilliant game..DustyTobesVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Work in progressIt was enjoyable initially and had a great and engaged story, however to earn shillings to outbalanced town management and became almost unattainable. Sadly I lost interest as it felt there was an imbalance in the game and it became laborious. Hopefully the developers will make it easier for players to earn shillings through tax or events so players don’t feel so stagnated..Jamie Fiendish MacVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Yet another fantastic idea…ruined with micro transactionsJust charge us for the game upfront AND LET US PLAY. It’s a FANTASTIC game, I’ll buy the content packs, I’ll buy the extra content — but build queues, micro transactions, tapping the screen like an animal to get more coal…and waiting??? Come on guys. Countless games have been ruined with strategies like this. The is whole paradigm is beyond broken, yet everyone copies it hoping to find the next whale who has $1K to spend. You’ll make so much more letting everyone pay for the game and just play. Let me play the game like it was designed on Steam—strategy, thoughtfulness, balance of resources, etc. This is monetization gone terribly wrong, resulting in a total-turn-off game experience. Bleh. Happy to change my rating once you abandon this monetization approach—then you’ll get a 5. PS. On the upside the cutscenes are cool and well done. But spend some money on a better pricing strategy. Time to bring in a professional..Keeve!Version: 1.2.2

✓ It’s great but make it offline capableYeah it’s amazing it just needs that touch of play anywhere ability..Kriegerinheart106Version: 1.2.2

✓ Pay to playI didn’t expect the game to be the exact same as on PC, but definitely didn’t expect a game built around micro transactions. It’s difficulty curve is dialed in to where you will ultimately have to pay to have success..The47guyVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Micro-transaction’s 👎🏼Most people playing game to relax etc. but this game force you work in game. Perfect Expected mobile version long time and this what we got. If you wanna play real “FROSTPUNK” just play original on PC or Console..WarstrifeVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Cash GrabMechanics vastly different from the PC game and designed to get you to spend money to speed up the ever increasing build times. Just another farming, tapping, “how much is your time worth?” cash grab..ZsgarrisonVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Hard to click on buildingThe camera angle always block me from clicking on buildings at the very behind.EriangeliVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Very slow progressionGetting coal is a joke when the generator uses it constantly and you need coal for other things too and you upgrade and get more coal factory’s but they don’t give u enough I’m level 21 and the amouth of coal u get a min has not changed starting at 4 coal a minute but I upgraded these productions a few times and still only get 4 a minute the balancing levels are insane you use way to much resources to keep up so it’s always a game of chase getting coins is so slow and then they wanna make more things to spend coins on but don’t give us more way to make them cause a year ago upgrading production units didn’t cost coins but now it does u have a tax office but u make about 50 coins a day which is pathetic u only get 3-4 trade that give you coins and your getting trades pop up all the time so we have to use resourses like coal and food which we need to run the city but we don’t make enough to use them to build stuff and to run the city making 4 coal a minute and having u need to build that needs 40 coal and then u need 3 of the time so 120 coal for 3 items for a trade that’s not worth it and also with the coin trades they have a time limit of 4 mins but some stuff they want takes 30 mins to make so that’s ridiculous netease has ruined another game they have touched netease always treats their players like scum they make things so hard for worthless rewards the game don’t explain things now I can expedition u have to fight this bear but I alway lose but it don’t tell u how to get stronger to beat that bear for some worthless rewards this game could be make for mobile is a better way if dirty netease didn’t touch it I play many of these games and this is the worst for resources just like netease over game like this lotr that’s been built to scam the player indie studios make better games like this and they know how to treat their players I only spend on a game when I don’t feel forced they not getting none of my money.Robodave28Version: 1.2.2

✓ Deliberately unbalanced waiting simulatorThe Frostpunk PC and console game this is based on is genuinely excellent, unfortunately like so many mainstream games ported to mobile, its mechanics have been gutted and replaced by increasingly lengthy waits that are structured to encourage micro-transactions. And waiting is what you do. Tap to assign workers to get resources, then use those resources to upgrade and expand your chilly settlement, until you lack a couple of key currencies - in this case to expand your warehouse - and then it’s time to pay or hit a wall. But paying just gets you as far as the next wall, and when all the skill it requires is tapping and waiting, that’s not really all that rewarding. Frostpunk was a cracking PC game, but this is a ditch water-dull cash-in with no discernible need for either skill or strategy. We can all wait, but paying for the privilege? You’d need to be clinically insane..MinimumSafeDistanceVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Don’t feel like using discord but suggestionsUpdate, games boring and now I just have ruins to unlock. Lack of content. Other city builders out there with more quest and stuff to do. Regret spending if I new games this short and not much more to do then just upgrade buildings..MagiaDragonVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Nothing like the real gameThis app is a cheap cash grab from the “studio” that licensed the property from 11 Bit. Grammatical & syntax errors abound. The game doesn’t shove micro transactions in your face, but I can only assume that’s because it’s still in early access. They’re still lurking a few menus away. Do yourself a favor, go buy the real game on PC or console. You’ll have way more fun..Glb1991Version: 1.2.2

✓ UnsatisfyingI have tried to enjoy this multiple times and if I can at some point, I will come back and update this review. But this feels very unsatisfying. I don’t like the idea of Frost Punk being like FarmVille. The nature of this game is one that doesn’t lend itself to this model, in my opinion. The things I like about FrostPunk are the ethically tough choices, the ability to explore, the freedom to make horrible mistakes that require a full restart, and the different possible paths to victory. I’m not sure there’s any of that, here. I hope you’ll continue developing the game and I hope I can fall in love with it like I have the original game, but I’m not there yet..AnnoyedCritic.comVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Extremely disappointedWe could have gotten the full game especially with all the AAA coming to iPad but instead we got a cheap cash grab clash of clans game with I familiar title. People, please quit supporting junk like this..Kit kat99Version: 1.2.2

✓ Game is way too hard !!!I understand no pain, no gain… But pain on the brain so intense I would rather want to be a Guinea pig for testing at a mental illness hospital than play this… no, I’m not just trying to be funny. The game difficulty is cranked up beyond any other game… Imagine this ?? There’s only 300 gatherable coal and wood and food…. This last maybe 30 minutes of gameplay, after that, the resources doesn’t even respawn :( Better solution ?? Make the wilderness bigger, and put all 300 of each resource close to the survival tent… And, if we want to gather more stuff, respawn it slightly further away, with bigger chunks. It will still make the game brutally hard…. But it wouldn’t make the game impossible to play… Thx for hearing me out..DranzerMVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Cannot “start” GameI know its a good game and ive played before but there is no start button i dont know how the game starts even though i opened it..FfffjdsdfhyjugddyVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Just Buy The PC VersionI don’t understand why mobile ports of great games are so horrible. The PC version is significantly better, if you want the full experience, play the PC Version and all the DLC..XxX_G-8oMBa_XxXVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Everything Too Small & Washed Out GraphicsI’m not sure but this may be a port from a PC Game because it is hard to read the conversations comfortably and easy. Also, the graphics are pretty simple and not rich and beautiful. ————————————————————————————————————- Also, it looks as though, there is a subscription thing going on and many things to buy in the store. It just seems as though, they took an old popular game at one time and are tryin to cash in, on the popularity of the frozen survival genre games, that are currently popular. ———————————————————————————————————— Unfortunately, the other games have done it better and are far more updated and visually appealing..Silvercgu11Version: 1.2.2

✓ WhyI would of paid whatever price was needed for this game. If it was anything like the real frostpunk. This phone app is nothing but time gated B.S. There is no challenge because then the whales may get upset. It’s another disgusting display of greed. I’m no longer buying Frostpunk 2..StiltzzzVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Its not a frostpunkIts a shame that frostpunk dev leave mobile version of their great game to some fools, that add a donate, strange interface and add more trash mechanics like TAP TO COLLECT. ugly game, im crying when i play it first time. ofc that game be good for mobile players all the time, but for PC gamers that want to play their favorite game out of home, they will be upset.Nahtigal717Version: 1.2.2

✓ BugWon’t let me play just stays on screen after loading and won’t allow me to click on anything but t/c and link account which won’t work.Z555556Version: 1.2.2

✓ Pay to Progress GarbageOh no! Your warehouse is full so now you cannot collect the materials you need to trade to get schillings so that you can build a coal mine because all of the natural resources are gone! Guess you’ll just die then…unless, you give us some money! Typical pay gating style game where you don’t wanna miss out on the 1000% value pack that has the 1 rare item you need to upgrade a very specific and important building..• Master Control Program •Version: 1.2.2

✓ I want to like itI loved Frostpunk on PC and console, but this....isn't Frostpunk. It's loaded with all sorts of microtransactions and paid currencies that block progress. No real choices being made, either. Just your standard, "tap to collect", F2P resource manager with a Frostpunk skin. I've sunk about 2hrs and $1 into it and that's more than enough for me unless things change a lot during this Early Access period..Jester28Version: 1.2.2

✓ Can Chinese be addedI need a Chinese option, thank you.JasonMarkFiyaVersion: 1.2.2

✓ How can I change the language settings?I can hardly find the language setting while you said you have 13 languages available..AaaathurVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Not like the originalSimilar, but not the same. Adding harvesting mechanics like “Hay Day” is cringe for the Frostpunk brand and a quick way to turn a great game in to a ridiculous grind unless you’re willing to dish out actual cash. Also, Im the captain but I have someone telling me what to do the whole time… doesn’t make sense and is pretty annoying. I’m shocked 11 Bit actually thought this was a good idea. 2 stars because the sound design and visuals are pretty solid..Zac8508Version: 1.2.2

✓ Nothing like the PC VersionIf you played the PC version, DO NOT expect to have the same experience. All sense of the RTS survival elements of the PC are gone. They “mobilized’ this game into something more akin to FarmVille. You manually harvest coal and wood (when you have the energy). There is timers on most of the buildings for building and gathering. -Cash Shop- enough said. I waited years for this since it was announced. All I’ve wanted is a solid game like this ported to the iPad but they have completely ruined this title. AVOID THIS GAME!.Lok-tecVersion: 1.2.2

✓ After update suspendedI have no idea why? I don’t believe I even used chat. After recent update they just deleted my account. Won’t be coming back to this game..FragwadzzVersion: 1.2.2
